The Stardust Thief Novels & Stories

"But I deserved it." He looked confused. "He found out about the plan." "What plan?" "I have a criminal record, Nash, and you might be one of the best lawyers, but you can't save me from prison when the truth comes out." "Have you ever heard of the notorious jewel thief?" He nodded quietly. "Wait, that's you?" "How?" "I've been doing it for years. I've been wearing disguises that made me unrecognizable, and I stole jewels from the highest bidders who loved to collect them."

he started to explain. "Sorry to bother you but will you able to fetch her in the Club Serene 16th floor Agua Hotel? I’m afraid I can’t handle them both," he added. Though he sounded serious, he was smiling and winking at me in front of him. Crazy! “I’ll be there in 10 minutes. Please keep them safe,” Chadrick replied instantly. Marco dropped the call and beamed like an idiot while Bella shook his head in disbelief.

Adam grumbled at Uncle Austin. Uncle Austin then looked at the black square-shaped item embedded in the marble table, Uncle Austin smiled. "They didn't hide the stove, Lord." Uncle Austin answered patiently. “The stove you have been looking for is behind you. It's black and square." He continued. Adam finally looked back, it was true. The stove had actually been seen earlier, but he thought that it was part of the table. The picture or pattern on the table.

Stella smiled. On the different sides of the town, Aeriol and Nathaniel are busy with all the cases they are handling. Being a private investigator is blocking their way to find Luan fragments, while Lala and Lynx are busy preparing for their upcoming travel. There is someone called The Collector, she is known as the friend of Fate. Hence, The Collector doesn't abide by the rules of the gods. She is more of karmic energy, if you want things to happen make it happen but prepare for all the consequences it entails. Lynx said that if they only get the elf orb he can make something like a tracker to know where Stella's memories are. "I haven't seen Stella since yesterday" Lala sighed exasperated

~Rose~ What the hell do I do? I already said that it was a mistake, that I hadn't intended on stealing anything. This was supposed to be the part where he let me go. But he wasn’t. He was holding a firm grip, so firm that it was stopping my blood flow. ”I think I should-” ”No.” ”You’re a pick-pocketer huh?” He said and stepped closer.

I turn back towards Thomas in hopes he knew what any of these things were, but when he gives me the same look I had on my face, I see we were both at a loss. I reach forward and pick up the first item, it was a long silver necklace which wrapped around my hand once I had picked it up. Thomas backs up even more once he saw, I guess he was very much scared of that silver touching him. But now it was out of the safe, I could look and take in all of the many details. The pendant was of a man with a beard his eyes closed but a crown on his head, whatever this necklaces purpose was, it seems expensive. But also, I felt as though I knew this from somewhere yet, I still have no idea where from.

“Black moonstone.” Xiao drops the pendant, now enclosed in a plastic baggie, onto the table between Nathan and me. He leans forward in his chair and reaches for the baggie, but I’m not taking any chances. I smack his hand away with an annoyed, “Don’t touch it!” I’m still shaking, even though we’re on the plane and safely away from Wyrding House, I’m still terrified that yet another shoe is going to suddenly drop. I made Xiao threaten the thrall pilots and leave a member of her trusted team in the cockpit as a reminder.I am not going to die today.

Her fingers trembled slightly as she extracted a small, worn pouch from her cloak. She moved around the battlefield, her movements deliberate yet frail, as she scattered a fine, shimmering dust from the pouch over the rampaging werewolf. The dust, a concoction of 25 rare herbs and a very expensive material called "stardust," worked as a slow-acting sedative, designed to soothe the beast's wild frenzy. "All my savings going to waste on this nonsense..." she muttered under her breath. *** Hidden in the dark forest, a woman clad in dark, stealthy attire urgently whispered into her earpiece, her voice a blend of tension and resolve. "Sir, shadow troops have arrived at the battle location," she r

She expertly appraised the contents of the room, taking stock of the treasures on display: Diamond-encrusted necklaces lay beside ancient scrolls, their yellowed parchment crackling with age, a Renaissance-era painting hung adjacent to a Buddhist monastery's intricately carved door and a gold-plated, gemstone-studded sarcophagus dominated the far wall, its lid slightly ajar lay amidst a lot of other treasures that most undisciplined thieves might have a hard time overlooking.

It reminded me of Dust, everything made from dust or dirt with the transforming power of water mixed in. While crowded and loud, Nedra was far less chaotic than its mirror up above our heads. But it didn't make me feel any less stifled. Diana strode down the wide pathway without fault, and somehow I was hurrying to match her stride. I realized it dead-ended with a large facade. It had no adornment, but it felt like an important building.
