The Mistake Elle Kennedy Novels & Stories

I’m sorry that it went that far, but I’m not sorry that I did it. “Elias, you bit me,” replayed in my mind. The whole ordeal was unfathomable. “You’re supposed to keep me safe from danger,” she said. I growled at the images that were reeling in my brain. I needed to throw something; I smashed a lamp that was close to me. Dammit! That girl. “I should’ve never taken you in.” I can’t believe I said that. Why did I say that? “Taking Kennedi in was one of the greatest mistakes in my life.”

The Anna that she knew didn’t have the conscience to do such, she would never try to bring anyone down and was considerate to a fault. The Anna who slipped the jewelry in her bag was unknown to her. “What a huge mistake you made, Anna.” She smirked. It would take more than a goddamn expensive necklace to bring her down, a whole lot more. She was the strongest component anyone could have and she needed to show Anna what a huge mistake she made trying to mess with her. Slipping the jewelry back into her purse, Elle made her way out of the restroom and slowly walked to the gift room, her heels clicking softly against the floor with each step that she took.

For a heartbeat she thought she saw movement behind her shoulder, a ripple of shadow that didn’t belong. She turned sharply. Nothing. Her breath left her in a slow, measured exhale. “You’re getting paranoid.” But she didn’t go back inside right away. The Mole’s Mistake Miles Trent sat hunched in the accounting office of Marino’s estate, the stolen gold pouch heavy in his desk drawer. He’d done everything right — or so he thought. Tonight, he made his first mistake. When he copied another of Elara’s letters, he dropped a single scrap of torn stationery under his chair. Lena found it during her midnight rounds — a corner stamped with Cassidy Vale’s distinctive seal.

" Two billion dollars have been donated to charities. We've created communities, transformed lives, and demonstrated that profit and purpose don't have to conflict." "And it started because I signed the wrong document." She peered out at the excited expressions. I want you to know that mistakes do not equate to failure. These are chances. You will make mistakes; that is not the question. What you'll build from them is the question. She clicked on a photo of her and Leon, twenty years ago, at their accidental wedding. "This man thought I'd ruined his life. I thought he'd ruined mine. We were both wrong. We'd accidentally given each other exactly what we needed—a partner who wouldn't quit. Who

My heart was in the clouds right now and if anything, I was enjoying this more than every other person. “Do you know the biggest mistake I made, Ella.” He asked Ella who seemed shaken with fear. Ella stares, unsure of whether it was a trap or not. Just before she could answer, he interrupted, “It wasn’t trusting Madame Browne with the spotlight all these years. She excelled at grandiosity.” I smiled, enjoying the moment but the president's next words made my smile fade. “My mistake…was thinking the size of the event mattered more than the heart behind it. For years, I was impressed by noise. But this year, Ella reminded me that silence…can steal the show.”

That I’m still the Ellie who doesn’t believe in love. But deep down, some mistakes don’t end when you walk away from the room. They follow you. And mine has his name. Adrian Cole.

This was a lot more difficult than it had been in her head. She sighed. There really was only one way to say this. “As a mother hen…” “Girl, I’m not your mother.” Kennedy finally interjected. “You know what I’m trying to say Kenny.” She blurted out. Kennedy cocked her brow, but said nothing. “I need you to understand that, it’s fine to allow us make our ways, and make our own mistakes. You’ve done so well with Cassandra and I, and we may never be able to repay you for all of your sacrifices you’ve made to keep us safe since our mothers died, but, it’s okay for you to let go.”

They both take a few seconds break to catch their breaths and it was during this period Anna knew she had better return to her senses or she might make a mistake only she would end up regretting. When Dylan attempts to kiss her the second time, Anna turns her face sideways but her eyes didn’t miss the look of hurt those green eyes held. “Sorry,” Anna says as she jumps off the kitchen counter and heads back to her room, her heart still beating furiously against her chest.

She heart a sound, turning she saw Elise. ***Flashback*** "What are you doing here?" She had asked. Elise in tears hastily unlocked the cell. "I'm so sorry Karen. I...I mistakenly gave you the food! I didn't know it was drugged!" Karen had no idea what she was talking about. "What food?" "The night of the blood moon. I should have known something was wrong when Daisy claimed she brought your food for you but asked me to give it to you and I..." Karen didn't want to hear more. "And?"

I drank all the alcohol from the can and then opened another. "Why?" Mommy sat down in front of me and hugged me. Everything is in turmoil. Lianne didn’t talk to me a month ago. Her parents are mad at me and about Cassandra, I don't know either. I thought that was the only mistake I had made. I was surprised to learn that it wasn't. She got pregnant, and I didn’t know what to do anymore. "Liro, let's talk!" I immediately went to where Lianne was. I want to explain. I want her back. This is a mistake. There is a misunderstanding here.
