Novel & Cerita The Gift Of Rain

The rain on the western ridge did not merely fall; it drove sideways, a relentless sheet of freezing highland water that turned the peat and heather into a thick, clinging mire. Tala stood perfectly motionless at the absolute precipice of the ridge, her feet dug firmly into the ancient earth. The storm howled around her, ripping at her clothes, but her spun-copper hair seemed to dance with a life of its own, vibrant against the dark, bruising gray of the sky. Her icy blue eyes were fixed on the valley below, tracking the glowing halogen headlights of Malakai’s heavy excavation armor as the machinery slowly ground its way toward the first sacred threshold.

Bring her in! As soon as my words fell, a timid young nurse was escorted into the room by my bodyguards. White as a sheet, she stammered out, "C-Craig came to me in the middle of the night and offered me a huge sum of money. He told me to swap the babies' name tags while everyone was asleep. He was also the one who took Ms. Lovelace's biological child away... "I honestly had no idea he was cruel enough to kill his own flesh and blood! Please spare me!"

CEO of heartless transactions, that's Calvin Buxton for you. When I didn't react, he blinked like I'd glitched his system. "We've been married three years.

Don't start drama," she cooed. Then, like she was doing charity, she slid her bracelet into my hand. "He gave me this for my birthday. It's secondhand now, but you might like it."

Rain poured relentlessly, and I stared at my phone, irritated by Terence's last text. [I'm busy today. Can't be there with you. Head home and help me pick someone up at the service area.] I turned off the screen as memories of those rainy days flooded my mind.

I have always enjoyed and cherished the earthy smell of rain. The soothing comfort that used to calm my soul before, was now making me feel pain and restless as the grey clouds stretched over the rainy sky. I wish I had bought my favourite red umbrella. It was my favourite because it was a gift from my grandmother on my twelfth birthday. She used to say this red polka-dotted umbrella was mom's favourite an

I closed my eyes, feeling my Siren awoken inside of me, as I could see her starting to shine at the same time as my body started to glow.
