The Edge Of Never Book Novels & Stories

I will rather face death than be emotionally abused. "My mother never had the time and my father... I never met him." I shrug and the corner of my eye catch the knob to turn on the heat. Without hesitation I reach for it and turn it halfway. This time Arthur doesn't stop me. He rather decide on watching me, waiting for me to explain my answer.

"Guess never.” “This wolf is very rare, and fortunately, it chose our prince. It is full white like snow and has an enormous power that could destroy planets. Isn’t that exciting??” “Emm…” She pulled Noelle into the middle of the dance floor as the music blared. Lights flashed and a smoke filled the area with weird-smelling fog. They twirled and laughed as some friends and a few of the other kids joined them. The music cut out suddenly and the lights turned on mid song.

The fact that I was sent back to my hometown to be raised by Grandmother… My food, clothing, housing, and transportation were much inferior compared to Belle… I earned a living by picking empty bottles, and my body was covered with scars.

He opened his mouth and suddenly his mind went blank. Cassandra had no warning for what or who faced her. That gorgeous, menacing stranger was right in front of her. Just feet away, staring at her. They were standing alone in an eighty-thousand-seat stadium, but to Cassandra, at that moment it shrank to the four-square feet surrounding them. And it was then that she had to acknowledge that the prickling awareness she’d been dismissing had just exploded into full-on shock.

I set off at once, because punctuality is one of the few forms of respect we are permitted to claim. The corridor I took was not the grand one, with the tall banners and shining windows. It was the service passage, narrow and dim, the sort of place built for bodies to move through quickly without being noticed. The stones there held the chill longer than elsewhere, and the air smelled faintly of damp, like old rain caught in mortar. I had nearly reached the bend when I felt it — the sudden sense of presence behind me, as if the corridor itself had taken a breath. “Edith.”

The book slid from her grasp, creeping toward the edge of the roof. Below, a dark van screeched to a stop. Its doors flew open. Is the person coming out of the van a new enemy, or the only person who can save them?

POV RUBY The armored vehicle hummed with a low, predatory vibration as we crossed the border of the county, leaving the burning remains of the O’Shea legacy behind. For three hours, Nevan hadn't spoken. His hands were fused to the steering wheel, his knuckles white, his eyes scanning every shadow on the highway like a wolf sensing a trap. The adrenaline that had fueled my frantic escape was beginning to ebb, replaced by a hollow, aching exhaustion that settled deep in my marrow.

The edgy contact excites me. I wonder what he's doing right now, who he's with. Is he thinking about me? I move the blade to the center part of my hand now making small cuts there. I welcome the pleasure in the pain it brings. It's different from the emotional pain that I've now gotten used to. It makes me feel not so numb anymore. I do this for a while longer before I hear my dad shout, "Sweetheart," from downstairs. I quickly hide the blade under my pillow and then rush to my bathroom to wash off the blood. There's so much of it that I'm shocked at myself. This is the most I've done. Maybe I should stop before...

The remaining Librarians scatter, hissing. The Hunter wipes his blade. "They'll be back. The Silence always sends a bigger predator." He nods to a portal flickering in the ruins-a doorway of fractured light. "That leads to the Edge. The one place the Silence hasn't touched." "Why?" "Because it's not a story.
