Stars The Book Novels & Stories

He then looked at me with utter disgust and chided, "Yvonne, didn't you block my number and run away from home? Why have you come running back on my birthday? I've never seen anyone grovel as shamelessly as you." At some point, it seemed that as long as Tracy was present, Zachary would humiliate me just to prove his loyalty to her. I simply couldn't believe I didn't realize that simple truth in my previous life. "Zachary, you're not indispensable. No one needs you to live. And I don't, either."

I read through but stopped to catch my breath. "It's a soft, milky, tender touch of..." I suddenly stopped as one of the gentlemen cleared his throat, dragging my attention from the booklet I was reading. "Pardon my interruption, but are you going to keep reading from the booklet?" he asked, and I pushed a shrug off my shoulders. "Unbelievable."

The sharp smell made Shirley's stomach turn. "Wh-what are you doing, Myra?" "Can't you see?" Myra waved a lighter in front of Shirley. "I'm burning this place to ashes. I'm gonna burn you alive! Then I can forget the past and finally become the only daughter of the Bishops!"

Tiny diamonds formed a ring of stars, cradling a silver crescent in the center. My breathing stopped. I had sketched that design when I was fifteen, in the corner of my old sketchbook. The day Ryan confessed to me, he had pointed at that drawing, his voice shaking. “Jane, one day when I have money, I’ll make this for you. “Stars always stay beside the moon. “Just like I’ll never break my promise to you.” Now he had finally made it. He just put it on someone else. On screen, Wendy touched the pendant at her collarbone and smiled shyly.

Harriet shoved her hands deep into her trouser pockets as she walked to the cementry. The sky above her cleared because of the moon, which accompanied her there, smiling as if assuring her that what she was about to do was good and super perfect and she didn't have to worry. The stars glitter, twinkling every time she raises her head to marvel at their beauty, as if they were her security. The fear she was feeling had already subsided, and she felt a little better.

He went behind her, and pushed her hair strands gently from her neck, and placed a star-shaped pendant on her neck. He was close enough that she could feel his warm breath on her neck. "It's done, let's go," Leo told her and went outside to take fresh air.

she spoke with her mouth full despite me telling her not to everyday of her life. "Not with your mouthful Amelia. Chew your food first." I shake my head and continue eating when the hair on the back of my neck stands up. The booth behind us that had originally been empty was now occupied. The occupant was staring at the back of my head, I could feel it. I self consciously touch my French braid checking for anything abnormal in my hair. My hair felt undisturbed and exactly like a normal French braid so what the hell are they staring at?

Brandon screamed as he rushed up the stairs, his thunderous footsteps echoed through the two storey penthouse, he burst through the door "out! Before you find my secret stash" He continued "Secret stash? What secret stash? " Tyler asked clearly amused by his best friend "If I tell you it won't be a secret anymore now, will it? " He asked with sass "Spill for a pack of Costa biscuits" I bargained His eyes lit up and I knew he wouldn't reject my offer " My secret stash is filled with belongings of celebrities I'd fuck if given the opportunity, now give me Costa " He rushed out in one breath

"But I think I might prefer something a bit more... cerebral." Kora laughs, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "Cerebral, huh? Why am I not surprised?" I turn back to the shelf, my eyes scanning the rows of books. "Ah-ha!" I exclaim, pulling out a hefty tome with a colorful, intricate cover. "This one looks promising. 'A Tale of Stars and Shadows.'" Kora takes the book from my hand, her eyes widening as she reads the title. "Stars and shadows, huh?" she says, her tone skeptical. "Sounds a bit too philosophical for my taste."
