The Summer I Turned Pretty Wallpaper Jeremiah Novels & Stories

He said as he walked towards the door. I froze. Kitten? The butterflies in my stomach went wild. And I hated it. I refused to react. Instead, I crossed my arms, narrowing my eyes. "I prefer Queen." Jeremiah turned and grinned as he walked backwards toward the door Just before he exited . He stopped and in a slow, exaggerated motion. He bowed mockingly. "Then Queen it is." I rolled my eyes again, trying to shake whatever that was. What the hell was wrong with me? It had to be his power.

"Go look at something else. I want to enjoy this in peace. Out of all these paintings, why do you have to be staring at the one I’m focused on?" Jeremiah retreated awkwardly. He had been admiring a painting that depicted the direction toward Fawnrun City, where snow blanketed the entire scene. The atmosphere it captured was so perfect that he had wanted to linger on it a bit longer. Left with no choice, he moved on to the orchid paintings. Even in the harsh environment of Victory Pass, orchids could be found. Kyle's depiction of them had reached a level of mastery that made it difficult to distinguish them from the real thing.

Sitting comfortably in a velvet armchair with a tumbler of amber liquid in his hand was Jeremiah whom everyone knew as Jerry. His eyes were focused on the elaborate designs of the Persian rug underfoot as he watched her—or rather he didnt watch her. His face was a masterwork of exhausted patience a man accepting the impending storm. Finally yelling “Can't you see what's going on Jeremiah?” Alissa turned to face him and spoke in a frustrated tone that implied he was deliberately trying to be obtuse. Jerry's eyes rolled with a deliberate almost artistic fatigue as he slowly raised his gaze. With the ice clinking softly he took a long slow sip of his whiskey in a small defiant protest against h

He should’ve stopped, but neither of them moved. When they finally pulled apart, their foreheads resting together, breathing hard, eyes still closed, the room erupted into thunderous applause. But neither of them heard it. All they heard was the sound of their own shattered walls, crashing softly to the ground. ............ Jeremiah stared at his reflection in the mirror, his jaw clenched, hands gripping the edge of the marble sink until his knuckles turned white. He couldn’t stand another second in that hall. Watching that bastard son of his, bend like a dog to Samuel Meyer’s daughter, the daughter of the very man he swore to destroy, it was like swallowing poison.

Despite it being midsummer, the pear trees were all in bloom, and the ground was scattered with delicate petals, creating a beautiful, dreamlike atmosphere. When she had first agreed to Mitchell's courtship, it had been during the spring, the season when the pear blossoms were at their fullest. But Heather didn't linger on these memories for long. Her gaze shifted to Mitchell, whose intense stare held her attention. Even though she had already guessed some of what had happened from Vanessa's tears, seeing Mitchell in person still took her by surprise. In just three months, Mitchell had turned into a shadow of himself, his once muscular frame now gaunt and unable to even fill out his suit pro

It's the first day of the recruitment exam, many people from various sectors around the city have come to do their best to pass the test to become one of the wall guards. A couple of days ago when Pulte had just quit his job, and opened his old weapons room again, he remembered the times when he was still part of the defense unit. He cleaned the room all night long and barely finished before dawn. After all the work he had done, he called Liam. "...Pick up, pick up." "Oh hey, I just finished cleaning up some old stuff and I forgot to ask, how am I going to get back to the defense department again? I forgot to ask yesterday."

How that simply being near her—the timbre of her voice, the teasing glint of her eye, the way she seemed to see right through him, into his very thoughts—could make him squirm. Tonight, he'd had enough. He dried his hands and walked to the living room, gazing at the thin wall that they shared. That bloody wall. It had kept him attached and tortured. On the other side, he imagined Sienna reclining on her couch, pretending not to know what she'd done to his life. **Tap. Tap. Tap.** He didn't mean to. His fingers moved on their own. Three soft knocks on the wall. Silence. His heart pounded.

Over summer break, right after graduation, my parents, Stuart and Rachel Powell, decided the whole family would take a road trip together. But the moment I hauled my suitcase up to the car door, Mom's hand shot out to stop me. "There's no room. Maybe you should just sit this one out." She glanced back at the seat behind her. "Aiden doesn't want you along, either. He's not feeling well right now, so give way to him." My knuckles went white on the suitcase handle, and my throat turning bitter. Aiden was the biological son they'd lost years ago and only just found again. Ever since he came back, everything that used to be mine had gone to him. Slowly, I'd been pushed to the margins of t

Jeremiah said as he held open the door to a store called Wal-greens. Atlas and I stood just inside the automatic doors. "Gaia's fuckballs," I whispered. "Have you ever seen anything like it?" Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Atlas shake his head. His own expression of shock and awe on display. Quite the emotion from my usually reticent man. "This way," Jeremiah said, pushing between us. He was pushing a wire metal cart before him. We followed as we tried to look in every direction at the same time. Jeremiah went directly to an aisle that had at least twenty different kinds of bottles that claimed all manner of hair perfection.

Ben mentioned, trying to keep his trembling hands out of sight. "Ohh...you will see…" Jeremih muttered in between heavy breaths. The look he had reminded Ben of his monstrous father, Robert had stopped stomping Isaac on his and Jeremih tore open his buttoned up flannel shirt exposing his pale white skin in the sun, he could hear him groan from the force which Jeremih used.
