Novel & Cerita The Blink Of An Eye Book

The kind that says I see you and I am glad and this is everything and I will not make it weird. When she pulls back her eyes are doing something. "Do not," I say. "I am not doing anything," she says. "Your eyes are doing something," I say. "They are fine," she says, blinking rapidly. "Completely fine. Dust." "Hackney dust." "Notorious for it," she says.

Rafe POV The world went white. For a heartbeat, I thought the packhouse was collapsing. The air shimmered, symbols of molten gold twisting through the smoke, and the scent - gods, the scent - was pure magic. Wrong, burning, electric. I raised an arm to shield my eyes and pushed through the doorway. “Evelynn!” She stood frozen in the middle of the room, her hands clenched around a blackened book that glowed like it wanted to eat the world. Across from her Varrick stood.

Seething with an evil, that makes the most horrendous of nightmares seem like childs play. I wanted to look around and see where I was. But, something inside my mind told me that even though my eyes were finally open, if I blinked, this thing in front of me would devour me alive, before I even had the chance to blink a second time. It's eyes were unwavering, never moving in slightest as we glared one another down. I wasn't sure what it was waiting for and the more time that ticked by I could feel the cold seeping back into my eyes again, wanting to pull my eyelids shut. Still, I pushed back with what strength, I could barely feel to keep them open and on the thing in front of me.

I was my sister now. He dragged the body to the kitchen. Water ran. A suitcase zipper opened. I kept my eyes on the wall. Counted cracks. Seven up. Three across. The water stopped. Footsteps came back. Then he turned off the lights. Darkness. My real eyes screamed for light, but the white lenses blocked everything. I breathed slow. In. Out. A phone flashlight clicked on. Beam straight into my eyes. I didn't blink. Ten seconds. Twenty. My eyes burned behind the plastic, but my face stayed empty. Bored. *Blind.*

he said, standing and walking toward me. He reached for a book above my head, his eyes locked on mine. The way he looked at me could melt me on the spot. Was he always this handsome? Why did his eyes seem so familiar? Calm, yet deep—like the ocean. He smiled and tapped the book lightly against my forehead before waving it playfully as he backed away, still smiling. I looked at the book he was holding—Time and Time Again by Tamara Ireland Stone. My comfort book. I don’t relate to Ana, but I do to Ben. We both don’t stay.

A flicker of something bright. When I turned the corner, I froze. A pair of eyes were staring at me from the end of the hall. They were glowing - golden and bright, almost unnatural. I couldn’t look away. I could hear the soft scraping of claws on the floor, and then the hum of something moving in the darkness behind the eyes. No! But before I could react, the eyes blinked. And when they did, I woke up, gasping for air. The whole room was still and silent. No glow. No claws. Just the quiet hum of the city outside

Twelve women, across sixty years and a hundred years before that, with my hands and my cheekbones and my hair and one of them, on the last page, was nineteen and had silver in her eyes in the way the daguerreotype caught it like a flash. Silver eyes. In a printed book on the writing table by the window. I put my hand on the table. I needed the table. The small animal at the base of my ribs lifted her head and put her chin on her paws and watched. Hello, she said. Quietly. That's you. "...That's me?" "That's been you the whole time." "...Yes."

I try to disguise my aroused self by rolling my eyes and focusing my attention back on the row of books in front of me as if they were the most interesting thing in the world. I feel his stare burning holes into my back but I wasn’t going to let into my desires so easily this time. As I try to get William Shakespeare’s Cymbeline out of the shelf, another book falls under my feet and I screw my eyes shut with annoyance. I bend down to pick up the book and hear Blaze inhale sharply. By the time I fully stand straight, I feel his presence behind me. Before he can utter any word out, I speak in a firm tone, “I’m not in the mood for your stupid mind games, Blaze. So, save it”

They were too strong for me. Suddenly my eyeslids were too heavy for me to keep open. Black spots clouded my vision and little by little it got darker and the eyelids heavier. That's when I let the darkness consume me sending me into it's deepest tunnels hoping that it keeps me there for the longest time ever. The end....

I said. “Just blink five times. You’re always welcome,” she said. I blinked five times and awoke in my bed; it was morning. ~~ That was the memory. Of course something like that would play for me. I guess it was a message. I blinked slowly. My heavy eyelids drooped as the screen became invisible. I fell into darkness soon after. All I could hear were shuffling noises and the faint sounds of booms as they caused everything around me to shake and evoke a few screams, pants and cries.
