The Last Summer Novel Novels & Stories

Patrick replied. After dinner they took a walk on the beach. The sky was dark, there were very few stars in the sky and no moon. Summer broke down and cried in her father's arms and he comforted her. "Let it all out." Patrick patted her hair." Tomorrow you will be a new person, leaving all your heart ache behind. Bobby Styles will wish he had never betrayed you." Summer sniffled and wiped her tears. A smile spread across her lips. Her father was right. She was going to re invent herself and come back better than ever.

“Please ,please be ok. I thought as Onyx ran full speed towards Mina. Summer POV: I bet yall bitches wished that I had die in that realm. Well I didn't, I’m still here and I’m not going anywhere, as long as I can complete my mission that is. That wouldn’t be a problem though, I just had to figure out a way to get out of here without the guards being up my ass. I did think about acting like I was going into labor. That would get me out, but I’m sure they will make sure I was watched the whole time, I wouldn’t be surprised if one of those humans would have a gun to my head the whole time. So, I needed to be able to get out of here without the humans knowing. I hated being down in these cells.

In the blink of an eye, summer break had arrived. I had arranged for Bethany and the others to work at my family's factory, just as they had requested. Looking at the gates before me, I couldn't help but shrink back a little. Even though it belonged to my family, it had been a long time since I was last here. As for the reason… I shook my head, unwilling to dwell on it any longer. "This really is the biggest factory in the city. It looks impressive," one of them commented. "I didn't expect Melanie's family to be so well-off."

“You stole the necklace?” “I—I didn’t mean to.” She gasped. “Not at first. I saw her do it. I swear I wasn’t part of the plan. I just—I needed a way out.” My mind reeled, barely able to keep up. “You needed a way out, so you stole Olivia’s necklace?” Summer nodded miserably. “I thought… if I could sell it, I could leave the manor. Start fresh. Somewhere else. Away from all this.” Her voice cracked. I stared at her—at the same girl who once clung to Tori like a shadow, the same girl who had tried to help me when I was accused. The pieces started falling into place. She’d watched everything unravel and never once said a word.

I had known this for a long time. My eyelids felt so heavy. I was ready to go. I was so tired. Selena was crying loudly, but I couldn't comfort her anymore. On April 20th, I closed my eyes for the last time and slipped away.

Why did I only understand how I felt after I'd already lost her forever? *** Epilogue II Third-Person POV After Yara died, Shawn went after Johan's company. When two heavyweights went to war, everybody took a hit. Their friends set up a dinner to force a truce. Johan and Shawn showed up as a favor, but both looked ready to tear into each other. Johan was a wreck. Shawn had lost so much weight that his eyes looked huge in his gaunt face. "Don't think I'll ever forgive you." "Give me Blackie, and I'll help you finish this," Johan said.

The scent of pine and warm summer rain rolled off him, heavy and intoxicating. He leaned in close, his gaze dropping to my chin for a fraction of a second before meeting my eyes. "You're a long way from the Ashford Pack house, Bellona," he murmured, his voice incredibly low. "And you're playing a very dangerous game." A defensive spark flared in my chest, but my heart was drumming a frantic rhythm against my ribs. "I don't know what you're talking about." What in the world was he on about? I didn't do anything that would put me in the spotlight, and yet here I was.

Before she could overthink it, she continued reading. "The difference is that Noah's secret came from love." "Mine came from fear." A strange feeling settled in her chest. Fear? Liam had never seemed afraid of anything. He was always confident. Always smiling. Always certain. Or at least that's what he wanted everyone to believe. Emma continued. "You remember the summer before London." "You remember how happy we seemed." "The truth is, that was the year everything started falling apart." The words pulled her into another memory. Two Years Earlier

"Ms. Sheffield, your illness is already very serious. You probably don't have much time left. Do you need me to contact your parents for you?" At that, June weakly shook her head. "No need. My parents… last year, because of debt, they were driven to jump off a building. They're gone now too. Now, besides you… I don't have any family left in this world." The news took me slightly aback. "Really? But I think you've misunderstood something. We stopped being husband and wife a long time ago, so we can't be considered family either." Seeing the lifeless look in her eyes, I no longer had the patience to stay there any longer.

"Is she a kid? Our baby girl is already an adult!" Luke sighed helplessly. The three of them entered one after another. Summer shut the door behind them, feeling doomed. Ever since her rebirth, she had faced many intense situations. Yet, it was the first time she felt like the world was about to end. "Are all these the books you've been studying every day?" Kristen glanced at the towering piles of textbooks and workbooks on her desk. "Yep!" Summer nodded as she poured some water for them. With her back turned to them, her eyes were glued toward her bedroom.
