The Bird In Unbroken Novels & Stories

Hot tears slipped freely down her cheeks as she buried her face in her palms, muffling the sobs she could no longer hold back. A faint flutter broke the quiet. She felt a soft weight on her lap, warm and light as a feather. Slowly lifting her head, she blinked through blurred eyes to find the little white bird with the golden streak perched delicately on her dress. “Little one…” her voice cracked, fragile and tired. She scooped the bird gently into her hands, holding it as though it were the only fragile thing in her world that wouldn’t betray her. “I guess it’s just you and I in this big, lonely mansion.”

"Hey, pretty boy. Break time." Levi saw the other inmates putting down their tools. So he did the same. He walked out of the shed and into the grass field. Some of them took out their cigarettes, others took out their stolen foods. Levi can still feel the pain on his sides, but he was trying to ignore it. "Hey, pretty boy. Come here." One of the inmates from the renovation team called his attention. "Can I help you?" "No, but I can help you. I can get you out of here."

"Come here." She didn't move. She looked at me instead, frozen, gone small and silent the moment the world got too big and too loud. I found my voice. "Lily." It came out hard and certain, the voice that meant do it now. "Come." She bolted across the room and caught Kane's hand. He scooped me back up against his chest, one arm beneath my knees, Lily's small fingers locked tight in his. I knew every face we passed on the way out. The baker who slipped Lily day-old rolls when Victor wasn't looking. The old warrior who'd once shown me how to splint my own finger. Not one of them had ever raised a hand to help us.

This is the day I get to put an end to John Williams. I get out of bed. “I am ready.” Now my expression has changed, sleep is long gone and the only thing that remained in my mind was killing the bastard. I head to the shower and take a quick one. When I get back to my room, my uncle is gone but there is a note on the bed, and I take it. ‘May the Goddess be with you today; may she bless you with strength to see this through. I have gone to the training ground, see you shortly. Your proud uncle.” The note read.

Axen looked at me without a speck of emotion on his face and said. "I accept. Our bond is broken with the blessing of the Goddess.' Axen tried and failed to hold back another howl. In the end he let loose a loud heart breaking cry that felt like a dagger to my heart, then fell back hitting the hard Chapel floor with a thud.

I focus on controlling my breathing but the panic is taking over. "I don't want to be stuck here forever, I want to go home," I say between quick breaths. "I promise you'll get home, I'll get us out of here," Damian tells me. "You can't promise that." "I can, we'll get out of here." The door opens and my heart rate picks up when I expect Adrian but Joey walks in with three guards. He's holding two plates of food while a guard has two glasses of water so he's just bringing us dinner, nothing bad. I manage to calm down as a guard unlocks the chain and walks me to the table and makes me sit down. I wince when my back rubs against the back of the chair so I shuffle forward, the metal cock cage r

"Have faith, man. Everything will be okay." "I don't know what I'll do if I lost her Bashir, I really don't." And he broke down. He buried his face in Bashir's shoulder and cried as much as he could. His shoulders shook so hard, and he felt his heart constrict against his ribcage. He was in pain. Unspeakable pain. "You won't. She'll be safe, Abdul. Let's have faith and keep praying." Slowly, he untangled his hold from his friend's and moved back. Now that he had cried, he felt a little bit better than he had in the first place.

Fuck it hurts to breathe. "I'm fine, just a few broken ribs this time. You know I can't fight back. The punishment will be worse than the beating so I'll take the latter. Can we just head to my house?" My voice is just barely above a whisper. I feel a hand grab my arm and I panic thinking it's Maximus so I rip my arm away which wasn't the best decision. The second I pulled my arm away a fourth broken rib makes itself known.

Over ten hours later, the plane touched down in a small border town on the edge of the Silver Moon Pack's territory. I dragged my luggage out of the arrival hall and immediately spotted my mother. She was standing by the exit, looking around anxiously. The moment she saw me, her eyes welled up. She rushed over and pulled me into a tight embrace. "Celine! Why are you back all by yourself? Where's Ryan? Did something..." I looked at the worry etched on her face and tried to say I was fine, but my nose stung, and the tears started falling before I could stop them.
