The Necklace Author Novels & Stories

It was Lily again, peeking through the doorway. I reached into my silk pocket and felt the small **Sun & Moon necklace** I always carried. I remember a boy once told me it would keep me safe when the world got dark. Now, looking at this lonely mansion, the cruel maid, and my cold husband, I realized I was in the darkest place of my life. I was in a cage. And the key was held by a man who was clearly more than just a farmer. *Ninety days, Sofia,* I whispered to myself as I entered my cold, empty bedroom. *Just survive ninety days. For Papa. For your name.*

Nagpadala ako sa mga maling akala ko. The necklace was well-maintained and polished. Sa paglipas ng mahabang panahon ay hindi man lang ‘yon nangitim. It looked like it was still new na para bang palaging nililinis. The ring pendant was also the same. It was shiny, and it even gleamed more when the lit of the fire reflected to it. ‘After all these years, nasa kanya pa rin pala ito? Ito ba ang dahilan kung bakit siya na-trap dito sa loob? But what really happened here… and why would Athena even risk her life for this?’

ang biglang anunsiyo ni Rafael. Eliza curiously frowned when Rafael showed her a large-sized velvet box. When he opened the box, Eliza gasped in awe when she saw the sparkling necklace. The blue sapphire pendant is adorned with small diamonds, and it literally took her breath away... "This is my Grandma Victorina's favorite necklace. It's like a family heirloom. Now, it's yours..." Rafael informed her. Eliza's eyes widened in utter shock. It's such a great honor for her to wear this impeccably beautiful necklace, and she feels so lucky to be able to wear it!

"I want details. Anong himala ang dumapo sa mundo para maging ganyan ka." Kung hindi lang malaki ang respeto ko sa mestisong briton na 'to, matagal ko na siyang ginawang pataba ng lupa. "This." I fished the necklace from my pocket. Inilapag ko iyon sa lamesa. "Is that?" "Yes. And no. I want to know if this shit here is real bago ako tumalon sa isang kumunoy. I want to be sure. Isa pa, you're still working on that case I got for you. This comes in handy, I suppose."

Malumanay ko siyang tiningnan. He really looks good at whatever he does. What an unfair life. Napangiti ako at pinagmasdan siyang magmaneho. I am more comfortable with him than being with my own family. I sighed and walked towards his mansion with him. Dumiretso siya sa bathroom habang ako ay kinuha ang necklace ko na nasa night stand. The necklace is not like the other necklace. It's different. The pendant is like a teardrop, hindi ganoon kaliit ang pendant nito tulad ng iba kong mga necklace.

The void in their lives that no amount of wealth or power could fill. “I still remember the gold longevity necklace she wore that day…” Madam Meyer’s voice faltered. Arnold’s jaw tensed. “Mom, people are greedy. That pendant was probably stolen and pawned a long time ago.” “Tama si Kuya,” Selene chimed in gently. “That lock... kung kanino man siya napunta, baka matagal nang wala sa kanya.” Madam Meyer slowly lowered herself onto the velvet couch, her fingers tracing the edge of her shawl. Her eyes looked far away—but suddenly, something in her gaze shifted.

Napapitlag na lang siya at nabaling ang atensyon niya mula sa fireworks na pinapanood niya nang maramdaman ang malamig na bagay sa kanyang leeg. It was a necklace with a crystal cherry blossom pendant embedded with gold around it that Vincent put on her neck…

Like a promise from someone who believed Serena still belonged to him. I opened the box, and it revealed a necklace. There was a necklace inside. It was simple, but its small pendant shimmered beneath the light. I stared at it for a moment. This design is familiar. I feel like I've seen it before. I turned the necklace between my fingers, studying the shape of the pendant. There was something about its design that bothered me. It wasn't expensive-looking. There were no extravagant stones or elaborate details. This design looks like the watch design from the Santos.

"Oo Henry.. Kahit ano ang kunin mo, pwede mong kunin. Kung nandoon nga ang tinutukoy mo, lugod kong ibabalik yun sa'yo." I think that necklace means a lot to him. Dahil despite of his strict looks. His firm and high level of his aura, nakita namin ni Rico ang luha sa pisngi niya. "This is so gay but thank you Rachelle," he's crying. "That's the only memory I have left for my mother.
