Team 7 New Novels & Stories

(Nora’s POV) I stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of my new apartment. Outside was the brightest, busiest nightscape in the city—skyscrapers stacked like blades, lights pouring down like a spilled galaxy. The heartbeat of another Pack’s territory. I swirled the red wine in my glass. The dark liquid slid slowly down the bowl, drawing a clean, controlled curve. Behind me, Beta David reported in a low voice. “Nora, the stock prices of Smith Pack and Brown Pack’s companies have hit limit-down several days in a row.”

"Because of her pathetic little cry for help." I walked out onto the balcony and took a deep breath of the cold night air. Seven years. For seven years, I thought I'd seen every shade of his cruelty. Clearly, I was still naive. "Elara…" Brenna looked at me, worried. I turned and gave her a brilliant smile. "Do you know where the underground fight club is?" "What?" "I need to fight," I said, dropping all my mental defenses and letting the rage and pain pour out. "A few hard rounds."

“Come on. We need to get some sweat rolling before playing.” He subtly smiled and jogged their way back to where Tyr was. It was awkward at first – at least for Zane and Tyr. They only exchanged looks before proceeding with their warmup and jogging. Other students playing as their team and opponents were mostly their friends from other blocks or courses. Zane didn’t even expect Zeev to gather these players from their department because he barely saw the two talking with other students aside from them and their block mates. But with Zeev’s lively and friendly personality, it was no surprise if he made a lot of friends already, going on three months into the university. After sweating enough t

"Why are there seven colors? Are they trying to summon something?" ... Feeling the various eyes cast upon them, the members of KG were starting to feel overwhelmed. Seven nudged Frank, "Boss, what are you trying to do? Isn't this a bit too... ostentatious?" Frank hung his head and spoke in a low voice, "Didn't I tell you? This is to build our team cohesion." "We already have good cohesion, really!" Seven was about to raise his finger to swear. The others also nodded one after another, looking at Frank with eager eyes.

“Right now, men our best men are being sent on their way to set up around the aera and bring both your parents back to you safely. The men being sent are from the red team. The red team never fails.” There are teams? Gio nodded. We have seven teams. There are Blue, Black, Yellow, White, Green, Orange, and Red. “What about purple and pink?” Chasity asked. Gio smirked, and raised an eyebrow, “This is a government program. Not the girl scouts. We can’t send men in wearing Pink.” I nodded my head, “Good point. They don’t come across as threatening.” Chasity pouted, “Pink can be threating.”

I listened with half an ear to the men as they talked about their new 'squad' at least that's what Lyon had decided to call it since as he says organization sounds too much like law enforcement and he hates any f*ck that has to do with that f*ckery. His vocabulary is even more colorful than Gideon's, and my brother has got a fine grasp on gutter speak.

"Rosalia, I was wrong… Please come back." Just then, a wave carried a drifting bottle onto the beach. Inside was a yellowed piece of paper containing my neat handwriting. "Jared, by the time you read this, I will be gone for good. Not just gone, but never existed at all. The system gave me seven days. I could have fixed everything, but what you did was enough to make me give up. Farewell. I hope you and Melody find happiness."

Andrew asked with a small pout. Asher laughed. Andrew always acted differently when they were alone, freer. But when with his mates or other outsiders he tends to be curt and reserved. It was like Andrew was reserving his playful side for only Asher. Asher ruffled Andrew's dark brown hair. "You know I can't Champ, there's supposed to be at least two supervisors from Hero League and that's me and Rita. You know James got withdrawn from Hero League so that just makes us four in Squad 7 and our new teammate is not being assigned to us until next week," Asher told Andrew.

The crowds have also grown silent, waiting for what is going to happen next. "The rules of the game have changed," Ryan voices out, loud enough for the crowds to hear. "As you can see, it is now 7 against 1, and that is unfair," Ryan said, pointing his finger at all of us. I scrutinize my team with my eyes, wondering what Ryan means by seven against one. That's when my gaze is drawn to another being. He was light in complexion, and I could guess that he was also from Africa.
