To You Who Swallowed A Star Novels & Stories

But I was deceiving myself, my stomach was determined as well, soon it won , I got up in the darkness, waved my hands around, then leaned to the Floor, touched all over it, until I felt a cold metal clank and I knew that was it. I pulled the metallic plate and its contents to my hands, I reached for them, my nails sag dipper in the cold moist dog food, and brought to my mouth, its musky stench almost had my empty stomach contents pour out. I held myself, closed my eyes, then into my mouth it went, i couldn’t bare the thought of chewing, because I was pretty sure that it would have me puking my guts out. I swallowed a handful of it, soon enough, I felt the tangy contents burn on my throat, I

It charged toward them. The First Star turned. A single wave of light struck the creature. It stopped. For the first time, the Devourer looked afraid. Then it disappeared into the darkness. The Star King fell to his knees. He stared at his hands. "I wanted to save them." Ariana looked at him. "You did." He looked up. "But you took everything from me." "No." Ariana shook her head. "You almost took everything from everyone." The Star King lowered his head.

"Give it a month, and the announcement drops official." "Then everyone knows: there's a 'Buddy' planet twinkling away." Buddy fingered the certificate, face pure wonder. "I got my own star?" "Uh-huh, all yours." She confirmed soft. He thrust it overhead sudden, dashing laps around the room, voice piping high. "I got my own star! I got my own star!" Sophia lunged to shadow him, hands out. "Whoa, slow your roll—don't trip." He barreled right into her arms, up on tiptoes, smothering her face in baby kisses.

He opened a small bottle. “Open her mouth.” I kept my lips tight shut. The man holding me squeezed my cheeks hard until my jaw hurt. The bottle touched my mouth. It smelled strange. “Swallow it,” the glowing man said calmly. “Or I kill you.” Kill. The word felt heavy. I stopped fighting for a second. If I didn’t swallow it, he would kill me. If I swallowed it… maybe I would die anyway. Maybe dying wouldn’t be so bad. Mommy and Daddy were dead.

“I’ll pluck a star from the sky and give it to you as your birthday present, okay?” “The stars in the sky can’t be plucked.” Although Zoe liked stars very much, she knew they were far away and could not be touched. Kyle held his hand out with a clenched fist, then brought it to Zoe. “I’ve caught one.” The next moment, he opened his fist and revealed a star necklace adorned with diamonds. “It really is a star!” Zoe sat up, not realizing it was a necklace at first. She only found it particularly dazzling and thought it was a real star.

I grasped onto it, holding tight until I was brought back to life. When I was thrusted back into my earthly form, I notice an intense stinging in my neck. I hiss and try to gasp for air, needing to feel it’s relief flow through me, but instead, I immediately throw up. I cough up this midnight blue water, tears sting my eyes from my violent heaving as that evil starry water gets expelled from my body. Through my tears I notice the twinkles that were like stars in the water I spit out. It’s so much less vibrant now that I wonder if anyone else can see what I see. I throw my head back towards the window and see the moon is at it’s peak. I didn’t move fast enough, that’s why the water tried to c

Sarah asked, still staring at the body on the ground. Clary replied in a soft tone, “Yeah, that’s Star. I don’t know how to explain it but when the stars led me here, I met him. He tried to get in my head, telling me all kinds of things but I fought against his mind tricks.” “But why is he lying helpless on the ground?” Aiden asked. “Did the two of you fight?” He was so confused. He had heard a lot about the mighty Star but seeing the guy just lying on the ground helpless had him doubling back.

" And she was talking to me about the stars, how they were her best friends and... I was lost in her words, listening to her... Watching her... And at that moment I knew I wouldn't leave you.

Kat's POV I came so hard tears were rolling down my cheeks as I laid flat on the bed. He was still between my legs drinking me like he was on the brink of death and my nectar held the key to immortality. "Shaw" I whisper out feeling too dazed to form any other coherent thoughts. I had never been eaten like that before and I certainly hope it's the first of many. He looked up at me licking his lips clean. I pulled him towards me pulling his shirt off of his bulky frame. I fiddle with the button on his pants as he kisses me. The taste on his lips is heady and warm and very me.

Tiny diamonds formed a ring of stars, cradling a silver crescent in the center. My breathing stopped. I had sketched that design when I was fifteen, in the corner of my old sketchbook. The day Ryan confessed to me, he had pointed at that drawing, his voice shaking. “Jane, one day when I have money, I’ll make this for you. “Stars always stay beside the moon. “Just like I’ll never break my promise to you.” Now he had finally made it.
