Novel & Cerita The Greatest Story Ever Told Ice Nine Kills

Tracie clamped her hand around my throat and slowly tightened the grip as she fixed her eyes on me. "Human life is so fragile, Jonas. Tell me, which one do you think will happen first? You leaking a story or your mom dying?" My eyes widened in disbelief as my body began to tremble I knew she wasn't bluffing. People who'd threatened her the same way found their parents dead the next day, and they'd be thrown into the sea. It was easy to make someone disappear, but I never expected those words to come from the woman I once loved. "Have you thought it through?"

The moonlight refracting off the waves made him look all sparkly in my eyes. I bit into a scallop and widened my eyes in pleasant surprise. The fresh, sweet taste spread across my tongue. All of a sudden, I realized that full moon nights without Leonard could also be warm and comforting. In fact, there were no downsides to my life without him. At that point, I had probably let go of him for good. Not long after that full moon night, Leonard arrived at the Tidal Waves Pack. When he reached the borders, the patrol squad immediately wrapped their claws around his neck.

That made it easier for him to pretend she was Anna. Sylvie quietly put on her clothes and brought out her notebook to jot down the number 998. Connor's voice abruptly rang out behind her, "What are you writing?" Before she could react, the notebook was snatched out of her hands. Connor saw the line on the last page. "Just hang in there a little longer. Soon, it'll hit 999 times." Startled, Connor asked in a slightly trembling voice, "What will hit 999 times?" Lowering her eyes, Sylvie said, "Once you've slept with me 999 times, I'll give you a surprise."

It was obvious that she would be spending the night with her mystery boyfriend again. I sighed and slumped on the couch, dejected, tired, thoughtful, and very much afraid of a lot of things. My phone chimed and I checked the blog notification absentmindedly. “An anonymous source has leaked the biggest secret the city has ever heard! Our sweetheart Chase Maddox, popularly known as Ice King, has been revealed to have killed his father in cold blood some years back. It was said that he was in prison for weeks. Apparently, our hockey superstar is not whom we think he is. Is this the end of Chase Maddox’s career?”

His attempt to reach the sword with the other hand was ruined by a hole between his ribs. Honestly, I expected more from this one. And there is no time to fool around, so- Losing my interest in this boring game I knocked him down with a kick of my leg, and rising his own sword, decapitated him, making the thick blood spill, mixing with the red one of the human, whose life he stole not so long ago. My long ears caught the sound of the approaching guards, police. When they arrive, before their eyes will lay a human body and nothing more. The red cap soon turning into dust in the foreign realm.

There was only one of the stray we didn’t find, or so it seemed. “You can go,” Nine said to the man beside me, sending his goon away. “Can’t watch your own back?” Six asked. “Or have you gotten that lazy?” “You’re alive,” Nine said, his expression blank. “I wasn’t expecting that after your ocean dive to save your pet.” “You of all people should know I don’t die that easily.” Nine’s gaze hardened. “No, you always have had a way of avoiding death. It’s almost as if you’re a cat.” Nine’s arm rose, his gun aimed at Six. “Let’s see if you’ve reached your ninth life.”

I looked into his eyes — those beautiful eyes — and asked one last time, "Do you still love me?" He laughed like I'd said something funny, came back over, patted my head, and answered without missing a beat. "Of course I do. Don't overthink it. I'll be back tomorrow. We'll celebrate our anniversary then — I already made a reservation." He sounded so sure of himself. I nodded. "Okay. I'll wait for you." For the first time in nine years, I lied to him. I turned and started walking back to my room. But Jason — who had been in such a hurry to leave — was still standing by the door. He hadn't moved.

It felt like standing at the edge of a frozen lake. Beautiful and Terrifying. One wrong step, and everything could shatter. “Don’t hope too much, Toby,” I whispered into the darkness. My heart ignored me. It already has.
