Stigma Of The Wind Novels & Stories

She's become the model of a well-behaved heiress! My brother looked relieved. "Well done. It's good she's obedient. Sending her to the countryside was not in vain." The village chief's son brought me forward. The cold wind cut me to the bone. I was wearing only a thin long-sleeve shirt and pants. The loose fabric whipped in the wind, revealing my frail, skeletal frame. Seth frowned, reaching out to take my hand. I shivered slightly and bowed deeply to him with utmost respect. "Hello, Seth."

She could feel the worms wriggling in her heart, the squirming of the worms made her stomach queasy. However, her attention was suddenly diverted as a gust of cold wind swept across her face, and blew her long hair. The gust of wind carried voices whispering in her ear, not the whispers of the surrounding leaves, but other whispers that she could understand. Leah looked left and right, it seemed that no one felt the gust of wind and whispers except for her. Even Mia and Grace who were standing so close to her didn't feel what she felt. The whisper called her name, she was sure. Not the sound of the wind, or the voices in her head, someone called her name

Tempest asked, the temperature in the room dropping slightly, but enough to notice. "She's weak. Up here," Ghost said, tapping his left temple. Tempest raised her eyebrows at him "You think so?" She asked him. Ghost nodded, as did Shade. "Because her hands shake under pressure? Because she fumbles while chanting 'I can do it. I can fix' in her head like she's trying to brainwash herself? You have yet to realise that what you've done here hasn't accomplished your goals," She said, pausing to take in their confused expressions.

It wants to push me off the edge. I stayed there, shivering and exposed, letting the wind scour me. I let its fury wash over me, the noise, the pain, the cold. And as I stopped fighting it, a different thought occurred to me. The wind wasn't supposed to be an angry beast. It was the life-breath of the world. It was the movement of everything. It carried the scent of rain, the warmth of the sun, the quiet rustle of leaves in a peaceful forest. This was not the wind; this was a broken wind. This island wasn't pure; it was a place of elemental imprisonment, holding the chaotic essence of the element.

She's just an insecure human; she doesn't deserve Windriel's affection if she's this kind of b*tch. Windriel might not look like he cares about his clan members, but I know he is like Winston and the other Lycans, who take priority over their race's lives. She should know that love is not enough for her to commit this kind of crime—a crime she committed just because she's insecure.

You will overcome it. Storm is next door. Soon we will be within its reach. Each death shouts disease, but no one cares to cure from within thee. We don’t engage in flesh. We eat no non-veg. We sleep in misfit if we do wrong deeds. Conscience to me is chief. To you is right. We need to drive. We need to stabilize. Then the storm spreads. No one understands. I was never understood with my illness. Away from the crowd, I stood, though it never spreads.

Felix meant it as a statement, not a question, but he seemed to not believe what he was hearing. “I am. You’re right that I’m a walking disaster. I’m cursed.” “We’re all cursed,” Felix said, rolling his eyes. “Don’t be so dramatic.” He pointed at his Stigma. “At least you don’t have this.” I knew he was right, and I felt embarrassed at how narcissistic I was. Here I was telling this boy how my life was so terrible when he was the one who grew up in a horrifying environment in the slums. He had been branded with the Stigma, and most werewolves, disliked him for that fact alone.

You'd better treat Whitney right, cherish her with everything you've got, or else, I'll be coming for you. [Don't forget her daily warm milk since her stomach's always been touchy. Take her to Icelandia for those Northern Lights she's never stopped dreaming about. [She despises rainy days, and cilantro? It's a no-go; she's allergic. Remember, she's scared of the dark, so never let her walk home alone at night.] Tucked at the end was a smaller sentence, meant only for her eyes. [Whitney, if I'm not treating you right ten years down the line, walk away, and never look back.]

Rayna Yes, a wheelchair and no, I am not kidding. Uncle James was right when he said Mr. Axel Windstorm, CEO of the Windstorm Conglomerate, was different. I blamed it all to myself for not Googling the man out after I read my assignment through email. I would have spared myself the visit to his Washington office. Damn it. CEOs or business executives in general always left a bitter taste in my mouth, but I had a soft spot for people who were impaired whatever social status they were in. For this reason alone, my strong aversion of the job somehow decreased.
