The Book No David Novels & Stories

“No, that’s not it” David leaned back in his chair, unfazed. “Right. Because you always look like you’re plotting someone’s murder before noon.” I didn’t respond. Instead, I tapped a pen against my desk, my mind replaying the conversation with Harper. ‘I don’t even like men’. A slow, humorless smirk formed. Liar. David sighed dramatically. “This isn’t about Howard’s latest scheme, is it?” Silence. David shook his head. Knew it. “Is this about a certain fiery brunette who—let me guess—won’t answer your calls?”

Brielle lay curled beside David in the center of his cavernous bed, the silk sheets tangled around her legs, one bare shoulder peeking through. The room was quiet, softened by the amber light from the lamp on his nightstand. David sat against the headboard with a thick history book open in his lap, glasses perched on his nose, looking like sin dressed as sophistication.

Thank you so much for reading my first ever book, I leave you with the first chapter from Rise of a Queen - book 2 for your enjoyment. RISE OF A QUEEN - BOOK 2 Chapter 1 – A New Kingdom. LAMIA I looked out the window on the top floor of my castle, yes, my castle, taking slow sips from the crystal glass that held the dark thick rum, my drink of choice tonight, as I pondered over the past two years and how far we had come.

I am Zeiah, I grew up thinking that everybody around me is ordinary and I am like them, but that's what I thought. I remembered everything, from the growl of that notorious creature, the slashing of the swords, and the explosion, all of it was clear. I close my eyes, quivering into the ideas which my mind could only bear. How I wish everything were just a nightmare. I let out a deep breath and found myself in the middle of nowhere.

- I told him. He nodded and pulled several books out from one of the stacks and set them in front of me. I opened the top book and ran my fingers over the runes in the title. It was beautifully written as if each word was drawn with love and attention to detail. Now that I looked at it, it reminded me of a combination of Norse and Old English. Nerrian pulled his chair closer and pointed to the first word, speaking it in my mind than out loud in Draygonian. With his help, I repeated the word over and over again until I perfected it.

And her books explained everything in detail. I’ve read all of her books. I had my blind spots, and we discussed them mostly with David. The two prophecies… Rejection and other matters caught my interest, but David said not to worry about them. David… oh David… it was getting even more difficult to stay away from him. I knew he had feelings. As much as he wanted to act indifferent and as a friend, I was not oblivious to the way he was looking at me. Adoration, affection, love, I would dare say, and sometimes lust. Especially, when I was thinking of him.

"Well yesterday he came to ask me about your book. And it was weird because it was the 3rd one in the series. He didn't even know it was yours or your name. He just wanted a background check on it so I told him it was yours. He then Alpha commanded me to tell him everything about you. He said it was a clue. What's going on there?" "He wants to go on a date with me and I said only if he could tell me what my name was. He couldn't, so I gave him the book as a ‘clue’. I didn't realise he would come to you about it." I say with a mouthful of ice cream. "Giving him a book that was written by Day Dreamer is a nasty hint." "I didn't really want him to figure it out. He gave me these sad puppy dog e

He was looking delicious in his sweatpants and t-shirt, his defined muscles make my mouth watered instantly. I gasped as he took my hand that was holding the towel, making it dropped and I was naked in front of him. "So young and beautiful, tell me...what's your name kitten?" "Claire." I breathed my answer. "I'm David, I want you to scream my name when I let you come. You understand me, kitten?" He was whispering low in my ear, he was licking my ear down to my neck. Then he was pushing his hardening cock to my front. I whimpered and said yes.

Something like that had really never happened to me and through my job I was constantly in contact with new people. Oh, what did I care about the guy anyway? After tomorrow I wouldn't have to see him again and that was a good thing. Women had to be quiet. Pah. Grumbling, I leaned against the opposite wall with my arms crossed and kept an eye on the idiots inside. Whatever they discussed in it, Diccon did it with a smile. His son just stood still and nodded every now and then. I only saw Reese's back, but his posture remained friendly. This also has been good.

Why did I have to put it in the big pocket? My face heats up more as I still sort through my things as best as I can. I'm just about set it on the ground when I hear a familiar voice. "He's with me." David is by the entrance, his face emotionless. I can feel my heart bump harder in my chest as I pull my straps back over my shoulder. His outfit now shows off his build so well, I have to try not to stare. The guys nod as David turns around and leaves, I suppose a gesture to follow him. I do, but from a reasonable distance.
