Starlight Watch の小説・ストーリー

He tore his gaze away from Odette, his mouth still open. "Lin, have you met my boyfriend? His name is Zayne," I smiled, stepping away so they could see each other. "Zayne, this is Star's older brother, Javelin." Zayne only nodded, while Javelin's eyes lit up. In a swift movement, he closed the distance between us, throwing his hands around me with a girlish squeal. I took notice of the Patek Philippe 5004T wristwatches in his hands. I wonder who told him wearing two is fashionably okay, but didn't bother to comment on it.

"Go on, open them. Mr. Wynn must’ve picked out all sorts of lovely things for you to choose from." I picked up a blue box. I recognized the logo—it was from a high-end brand. Opening it revealed a diamond-encrusted watch. I gasped. Wasn’t this the Starlight Moon series from that brand? Suddenly, I hesitated to open any more. All the boxes looked ridiculously expensive. Would opening them mean I couldn’t return them? Mary clicked her tongue in admiration. "It’s stunning. Try it on, Miss White." I carefully slid the watch onto my wrist. The clear diamonds against my pale skin looked like they were made for each other.

Arion murmured looking at Emily's face while gently stroking the beautiful woman's hair. Beep beep beep The notification on his apple watch beeped. The custom Apple watch was called the Golden Concept Diamond, which was wrapped in titanium and 443 diamonds. This special edition watch was priced at 15,000 US Dollars. It had even been upgraded by Felix for special purposes, which of course cost much more than the price of the watch itself. Arion carefully got out of bed so as not to disturb Emily's sleep. He strode over to his desk and reached for his smartwatch.

"My God. Mrs. Layton's really something. Even her company's reed diffusers are more unique than everyone else's." Mack and the other assistants were on their phones, watching the livestream of Star&Ciel Group's press conference to boost the number of viewers. It actually didn't matter whether they were watching—there were already more than 500 thousand people watching the livestream, and the number was steadily increasing. Shooting Star was a line of reed diffusers with the four seasons as its main theme. The products for each season used flowers that corresponded to the seasons as the main ingredients. Different flowers were used for the top, heart, and base notes.

The watch. It was still ticking. Still on. Still my only hope. My fingers twitched against it, testing for the small buttons Jake had shown me. It was an electronic watch with a discreet emergency function—press a sequence in a specific rhythm, and it would silently send a ping to Caleb’s number, sharing my coordinates. The problem? I hadn’t had a chance to do it yet. Not in the car. Not with them dragging me here. And now, they were watching me. Watching every twitch, every blink. One wrong move, and they’d rip it off and toss it—or worse, discover its use.

She gently traced my tombstone and whispered, "You are the starlight that vanished from my sky." Finally, my soul began to fade. Thank you, my sister.

We walked to my workshop and Ray put Scott’s watch on the velvet pad. The watch face had a silhouette of a soldier standing proudly in the center of a St. George’s cross. I smiled, “That is perfect. I reached to my opposite side and picked up the band. I attached it to the watch and Ray gasped, “This couldn’t have worked more perfectly. This watch is a masterpiece.” Theodore smiled, “You should read the engraving.”

She wouldn't want tokens from me anymore. “I understand. You can go ahead now.” On this final day, I didn’t argue with Amber. I changed my clothes and followed behind them. Luna was practically glowing. She skipped along happily as she held Amber’s hand and pulled Jason’s with the other. “What a beautiful family! You can see the love between them.” “That little girl's adorable! She has such good genes!” At the strangers’ praise, Luna darted over and pointed first at me, then Jason. “Who do I look more like?” She twisted shyly in a practiced, cute pose, eliciting chuckles.

"I am really sorry that I brought you into this but can you have these? We can never tell what would happen in the future and I don't want you to be hurt." "How does the wristwatch work?" Aurelia asked. "It has a tracker so I can always track you. And if you just tap thrice on the screen, it will alert me and all of my men. So you have to use it when you are in trouble, okay?" "Yes, Lucian." Aurelia nodded and received both items from Lucian. "I will be safe," Aurelia assured him with a smile. "And I asked earlier but you gave me no response. Would you like to come home with me soon?"

"Find a wedge! Anything hard metal! Jam it into the primary gear teeth!" Robert looked around. The room was bare. No tools. No loose pipes. Just him and the machine. His eyes fell on his own chest. Or rather, the breast pocket of his coat. With trembling, blistered fingers, he reached in and pulled out the heavy gold pocket watch. The one he had shown Jack. The one engraved with the Sterling family crest: Per Aspera Ad Astra—Through Hardship to the Stars. It was made of a dense tungsten alloy, an heirloom from a time when things were built to last.
