The Crux Novels & Stories

"12 sevens are 84, 12 eights are 96, 12 nines are 108, 12 tens are—" ~MY BOY, I REALLY MISS YOU~ "Fuck!! I swear to god..." Creed bit his own lips to keep himself conscious. "I will burn down this forest one day if you don't stop that shit..." Creed was struggling for some unknown reason. He wanted to look back, but he knew he must never do that. Creed had already read about the Necrosis Forest in Glitch Forum, so he knew what was going on with him. Necrosis Forest was one of the most notorious places in the Glitch. The atmosphere inside the Forest was very creepy.

The hundredth turning of the crucible marked more than a number. It marked the moment when the Flame Root, the Song, and the Eternal Throng became indivisible. What had begun with one terrified soul trembling in chains had flowered into a living cosmos of boundless, consensual desire. The sanctum no longer felt like a chamber TEternait had become the womb of creation itself, pulsing, breathing, and climaxing in harmony with every realm it touched.

The challenge resounded in her throat, tinged with a mix of defiance and determination. The air crackled with tension as they faced off, their eyes locked in a battle of wills. At that moment, neither of them could predict the consequences that awaited them on this newfound path, nor the unexpected twists and turns their fiery encounter would take. As Chloe held her ground, her heart pounded in her chest, a mix of adrenaline and uncertainty coursing through her veins. The air between them seemed charged with an electric energy, and the intensity of their stare-down created a palpable tension in the room.

he next thing I saw was Henry staring at me in… "We are here!" I heard Caroline say it in a singsong voice, dragging me back to reality. I realized the massive gate of the Moon Pack has been opened for us—the gate that only opens for a good, tangible reason. My heart caught up in my throat at once when the car eased into Moon Pack. The richest and most peaceful pack there is. The wind splashed across my face wickedly, and I lowered my eyelids. The man who has been driving, sorry I didn't know his name, alighted and turned around to open the car door for me. I stepped out reluctantly to stare around the vicinity.

“Whatever you saw in that journal; the one you’ve got stuffed in your waistband and won't let me read, it must’ve been pretty damning. I’m betting I didn’t do anything he didn't deserve.” “So you just brained a man based on a hunch? I didn't even tell you what...” I stopped mid-sentence. A low groan came from the floor. Clyde shifted, his hand moving weakly toward his head. Aria gave me a deadpan look. “See? Still breathing.” “Good. Then let’s go,” I said, already hoisting our heavy duffle bag over my shoulder. My leg throbbed, but the adrenaline was doing most of the work now.

I whispered to myself, letting out small puffs of flustered breaths slowly. I'm so fucked, we are literally neighbours. We are fucking neighbours now!

He evidently underestimated me, and that only speared more fear into him. “Señora Cruz, esto es todo un malentendido.” (Mrs Cruz, this is just a misunderstanding.) He begged, blood and saliva pouring from his mouth. His face was marred with black and blue bruises. Lumps had formed along his cheekbone, eyes and jaw. I admired the handy work of Luis. He had definitely done a good job. Perching against the table that hosted a collection of tools. None that I recognised, apart from a knife, but the metal ends glimmered in the dim light, looking just as murderous as the bearer.

Kola asked and Felix hissed playfully. “I wish I had” Felix replied and Kola chuckled. “I have a feeling she’s just about the corner” Kola said and Felix folded his arms as he put off the AC and wounded down the glass allowing the fresh evening breeze to blow against him. “I hope she is” he whispered into the air but Kola turned to him but didn’t say anything. He also wounded down the glass as the evening breeze blew against him. They soon got to Crunchies and Kola quickly parked the car and they both got down.

The part that captured my attention the most was the article on a relationship matter. "What sort of extremely crappy prevarication is this mess?" I yelled out loud since I was alone and there was no one to tell me to shut the hell up. The magazine emphasised on how great a stupid man is, I guess a celebrity. It stated how awesome he was and all forms of falsehood.

*Crunch* A hooded man walked slowly across the deserted surface of the planet. The planet hadn't seen the light of day in a long time because it's lone star was dying out, producing dying embers that could illuminate it slightly and not do any more than that. However, that was sufficient for the man who walked his way through the planet.
