The God Of A Second Chance Novels & Stories

****** A second chance Gabe stood on the edge of the cliff, the cool morning air brushing against his face as he watched the horizon. A new day was dawning. He thought of those who had died—friends, innocents, all lost in the fight against an evil so ancient and powerful it had nearly consumed the world. But amid the sorrow, there was hope. A second chance. The rising sun bathed the landscape in pure golden light, warm and honest. Gabe looked down at the idol cradled in his hands. It was warm now, faintly humming as if something deep within it still breathed.

The ecstasy of finding a mate. My second chance mate is here? In this very bar that I am in? Oh my goddess, oh my!. The moon goddess has granted me another mate, a second chance mate to replace the one that rejected me seven years ago. Tears fill my eyes and I don’t know what feeling to expect, gladness or disappointment? Where is he? Where is the mate that the moon goddess has given me? Anticipation guts me as I stare around the whole room eagerly, that moment, Kai steps into the room. Our eyes meet and my body sparks with that same force from earlier.

What was the point of punishing someone for a previous sin they didn’t even remember committing? Now, I lay here in front of a mate who doesn’t know what I am to her. She doesn’t know how much I would love and care for her and her pup, and she wants to end my suffering and send me back to the land of the dead. But that was what gave me hope. The Goddess had given me a second chance to live, a chance to try. She had given me them. They were mine. The woman and her child, I was bound to them in the most divine way possible. Something that I had never seen happen before. A second chance mate.

“Thank God!” The woman who likes hot chocolate only shook her head twice, seeing Mila's spontaneous reaction. They continued walking down the street while enjoying the city's condition, which still looked crowded, even though it was a weekend. "Abby, after the honeymoon is over, will you be going back to work as usual, or taking a day off to rest at the apartment?"

He just nodded slowly, his shoulders slumping under the weight of his failed devotion. “You chose the wreckage,” he said, his voice barely audible, the devastation absolute. “And you’ll have to build your whole world out of it. Don't call me when the fire goes out.” He walked into the bedroom, packed his duffel bag, and was gone. I watched the door close, already pregnant with the crushing guilt of what I’d done, but still thrillingly convinced that Julian's promise of chaos was worth the price. (After 8months)

So long as she looks at me with that deep-seated hatred in her eyes. The only time I’m going to get out of this habit is when she finally says she forgives me. After all, she knows just as much as I do that you only get one mate in this lifetime. If you’re lucky, the goddess will provide you with a second chance mate. But no one’s ever heard of receiving a second chance mate since decades ago. So to say, there’s a mere, one percent chance we’ll ever get another mate. It is the goddess that passes judgement on whether you deserve to be given one after rejecting the one she’s given you.

But now I was just thankful I got a second chance, a do-over, a mulligan. Mother Nature smiled at me. Karma sent me her favor. And God gave me Dan. The End

“And if he is?” I looked down at the table, quiet for a beat. “Then we name him.” Scarlett’s voice softened. “We give him a life.” I nodded once. “And we start over.” She looked down, then met my eyes again. “You know what I think?” “What?” “I think this is the Moon Goddess giving us a second chance.” “I’m not sure I believe in second chances anymore.” “Then believe in timing.” I looked at her. “What’s your plan?”

“Why are you here? Am I dead?” “Not yet,” the Goddess replied. “You have suffered greatly, Elysia. More than you deserved. I made a mistake in letting your path unfold this way.” Tears welled in my eyes. “It’s too late. I’ve lost everything. My father, my child, my mate…” The Goddess knelt beside me, taking my hand. “What if I gave you a second chance? To protect your father, to make different choices. Would you accept it?” My heart ached with longing. “A second chance?”

"What do you mean?" "Thomas, Melina was pregnant for you before now, and she miscarried because of this same James." Katherine must have heard Melina say his name. Thomas freezes and just stares at his mother as he tries to make sense of her words. Melina was expecting his child for the second time. He couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe he’d created a human being with Melina, not just once but twice, and he's only finding out now. Now they’re no more; Thomas couldn’t believe it. He lost the chance to be a dad before he knew he was one. Thomas' heart clenches in his chest. His heart aches for his unborn children.
