The Big Leap Novels & Stories

“You know, I caught that man following us when we were in an amusement park. My mother didn't realize his existence before I told her …” "Wow, you're sharp," praised Ethan sincerely. "Grandpa Claude taught me that," the girl said, looking proud. “I plan to become a prosecutor, you know.” Ethan restrained himself from laughing in front of Amelia. He didn't want to undermine the child's dreams; he just felt that the girl was so brilliant that she was already thinking about her future. "And what's your point?" "I don't like him." "And may I know the reason?" Amelia narrowed her eyes. "Because he's not Mom's fan."

My name was Victory Carlson, and I was a college student. I had a pure, lovely, and youthful look, and an impressive 36E bust, and I easily attracted Damon Powell's attention the moment I appeared. Damon was my boyfriend. He'd always wanted to have sex with me, but I listened to advice from my stepdad, Charlie Kramer, that I was only truly considered an adult after I turned 21 years old. "It's going to be my 21st birthday in two days. I'll let you have your wish when that time comes," I told Damon while nestled in his arms in the grove of trees on campus.

Once Axel fell fast asleep, I immediately slipped out to the porch to call Mom. "Bri, it's the middle of the night. Is something wrong?" "Mom, pack your things. We're leaving for Baylandia in five days. A company there hired me, and I've decided to move there. "Don't tell anyone about this, especially not Axel, okay?" Mom was startled by my urgent tone, and she stammered out an "Okay." After booking the tickets, I finally felt my heart settle back into my chest. … The next day, on the way to the bridal shop, Axel casually brought up Mom.

Voices piled on top of each other, all insisting I had been targeting Andrea. Andrea sniffed quietly, her voice weak and trembling. "Quinton, I know Lisa is upset because she doesn't want to go to Northreach. As long as she's willing to go there and help the company grow, I don't mind being picked on a little…" Quinton sighed heavily. "You're too soft-hearted. Lisa is only jealous of how young and capable you are." He turned to me, his gaze icy. "Apologize to Andrea, and make sure you mean it. Then I'll allow you to come back within a year. Otherwise, you can spend the rest of your life eating sand in Northreach."

"Where are you going? Why are you packing clothes?" I said calmly, "I don't like them anymore. I'm just packing them up to switch to new ones." He relaxed. During those three days, Mabel kept posting updates about the baby supplies, top-tier postpartum care, and specialized pregnancy meals Claude had arranged. He liked every single post, while I quietly saved the evidence. There were only two days left before I left. To cheer me up, he invited my younger brother, Brandon Scott, to have dinner with us.

There were a bunch of phases that they utilized for the showcase that they discussed for the main tournament but ultimately did not make the cut. One of these was the River Leap. The River Leap stage was a formidable and awe-inspiring segment of the werewolf obstacle course, renowned for its sheer difficulty and the raw power of nature it harnessed. The river, a wide and tumultuous expanse of water, carved its way through a deep gorge, its banks lined with jagged rocks and slippery moss. The sound of the water was a constant, thunderous roar, a reminder of the challenge that lay before the competitors.

I see Jax out of the corner of my eye writing furiously in his notebook with a slight smile on his face. You ready for my birthday party? He wrote. Yes but I wish we could just do one party together. I wrote back. I am excited to shift. He wrote. I gave him a small smile in return. I'm terrified of him shifting. I'm terrified that when he shifts he will find out who his mate will be. I'm terrified it won't be me. Turning 18 is a big deal. College, high school graduation, and shifting all in 3 months. After about 45 minutes the bell rung for our next class. He scooped me in a hug and kissed me.

"Mom, Dad, I'm sorry." I kneeled in front of my parents at the doorstep, mechanically repeating the vows I had practiced countless times. "I've realized my mistakes. I swear from now on, I will treat Jake well. Everything will be about him first. He's the best. He comes first. His life is more important than mine." As soon as I finished speaking, the director Arthur Black's voice rang out, "Cut!" This transformation reality show had finally wrapped up.
