The Beginning After The End 9 Novels & Stories

I didn’t stop him and let him lead me opening my mouth, a little and that’s when it became the best. I kissed him back not having anything to stop me without any thoughts in my mind. I felt nothing but butterflies and we both smiled, releasing each other. “See I told you that you would take step 7.” He whispered over my lips. Before I can say anything, he crashed them again like before, and I didn’t stop him too. Again, after releasing me, he smiled, saying, “I took step 8.” I frowned, but didn’t say anything closing my eyes a little. He suddenly chuckled and said, “Next step 9 is yours.”

As my consciousness began to fade, I forced myself to reach out and fumble for the burner phone hidden on me. [That favor you owe me—you can pay it back now.] The moment the message had been sent, both the display on my phone and my mind plunged into darkness. I had no idea how much time had passed before the pungent stench of disinfectant finally jarred me awake. My body felt as though it had been crushed into pieces and then forcefully patched back together. The hollow emptiness in my lower abdomen served as a constant, brutal reminder of everything that had just transpired.

“About the transfer to Seaview… I’d like to expedite it. Yes, I’m ready to go this week. I’ll start preparing everything right away.” After hanging up, I looked one last time at the framed photo of Annie and me on my desk before flipping it over. I had forgiven her ninety-nine times. This time—the hundredth time—I was finally choosing to let myself go.

He pictured her smile, her laughter, the promise of a future so different from the endless silence of space. Could he deliver on his vow? Could he keep her safe, return to Daunia before the end arrived? The weight of responsibility pressed down on him, yet excitement fluttered in his chest. This was his chance to change everything. As exhaustion finally claimed him, Bastion drifted off, dreaming of a new life after arriving on Earth—and the possibility of love against all odds.

And now, I was done believing him. The silence stretched on, and the man on the phone asked again. I steadied myself and answered calmly. "Yes. I accept." We exchanged a few more words, settled on a start date, and I hung up. Then I hailed a cab and went home. I pushed open the front door and went straight upstairs to pack. I was moving out. If I was going to end things, there was no point dragging it out. Packing did not take long. Looking down at the worn-out clothes and pants so faded they had turned white, it hit me just how lean these years had really been.

Seraphina stood behind him and clenched her fists in anger. Aidan slowly turned around and walked toward somewhere. The video stopped there. However, I could already predict what he was going to do. Aidan would apologize to her, and then they would reconcile and continue their disgusting relationship. After I ended the video, I sent a text message to that colleague. I thanked her and wished her all the best in her future endeavors. After three days in this foreign country, I started familiarizing myself with my surroundings. Just when I was about to head out, I received a call from an unknown number.

After ninety-nine times, her heart could no longer be stirred. For the next few days, Adrian didn't try to find her. Until company employees were huddled around their phones discussing a trending news story. "Oh my God, isn't this the heir to that major corporation? How did he end up in such a terrible crash?!"

there was nothing that could shock them at this point. “I just got off the call with John. He says Ms. Hemsworth’s friends have also disappeared and is also stuck like me he can’t locate them” Before Silas could say anything, something caught his eyes. It was the sticky note that Nicole left on the fridge door. He pulled it off from the fridge the read it. It was written in capital letters it was a s if she was making sure that whoever reads it sees what’s written clearly. ‘NOW THE FIGHT BEGINS MAY THE BEST BITCH WIN’
