Traveling Mercies Novels & Stories

Jasper stands up to leave, making sure to tap me on the shoulder before opening the door. “Goodnight Steve it was nice having a chat with you, I just pray you have an after plan, asides this” I nod and turn my head away from the door. “Goodnight man” he says and shuts the door. “Goodnight” I mutter to myself. The next day. “You should hold yourself responsible for certain things you know” came mercy’s voice, she was currently speaking to my wife on how she needs to take the world by surprise, yeah don’t ask me, because even I don’t understand a thing she is saying.

Trinity said with a satisfied smirk, and then she turned serious, pinching her arm suddenly. “Ouch Trinity” She whined with a pout. Trinity gave a friendly glare. “Never leave me on read” She scolded, shoving the powder case back into her purse. She nodded, flashed an apology smile. Speaking of apology she really needed to do that with Hardin. “I messed things up yesterday with Hardin” “I know. It’s my fault sending him over, I’m sorry” “I understand” No she didn’t, it was totally all Trinity’s fault even though not entirely. It was just much fun putting all the blame on Trinity.

Mike was more than happy to accept the apology but he was still skeptical of Collin, the man was his alpha yet he acted that way towards him. He was ashamed more than anything and his mate kept on reminding him of his mistakes. On this day Mercy was leaving with Luka, Ambrosia and two warriors. She was going to her old pack to visit Lucia since they were not allowed to visit anymore after everything that happened. Collin didn’t trust anyone in his pack, it also took a lot of convincing on Mercy’s side for Colling to let them go and visit.

I promise you that I'll make your lives a living hell. Dad then barked his orders to the bodyguards, who were standing nearby, "Take both of them to The Golden Triangle. Don't kill them. I want them to be alive to experience all the pain and suffering that we're going to inflict upon them." "No!" Bianca screamed hopelessly. A sudden burst of strength surged through her, and she was able to somehow free herself from the bodyguard's restraints. "Let me go! I don't want to go there. I don't want to!"

"I know you must both be so angry with me. Adrian is as well. I'm selfish and stupid. I deserve everything that's ever happened to me. But I'm so tired. I can't outplay Sean. I can't even drag him down with me when I die." I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. The rain seemed to be pouring harder now. At that moment, I felt like a wandering ghost with no home to return to. "When I join you in the afterlife, don't shy away from me, okay? Please don't reject me. I know… I was wrong." After walking in a daze for what felt like forever, I finally got home. Before I could open the front door, I saw the warm yellow light spilling through the gap under the door.

"Justice isn't a cage! Justice is the fact that we're still standing despite everything you did to us! My mother didn't die so I could be a prisoner! She died so I could be the Ending!" I flooded the Spire’s protocol with the sensation of Mercy. Not the mercy of a god, but the messy, difficult mercy of a human being who knows they aren't perfect. I showed the Echo the feeling of the 136th chapter—the joy of the twins’ laughter, the warmth of the sun on a scarred shoulder, the taste of bread shared in the mud. I showed it that a world that remembers its pain but chooses joy is more powerful than a world that is "Clean."

“You’re pimping me out?” “Don't use such ugly words, darling. It’s business. You’re already open to new experiences, right? Why not make it profitable? The Mercers are animals, but they pay well.” "That’s it," I roared. I didn't wait for Silas’s permission. I threw the car into drive and stomped on the gas. The engine roared like a beast awakening. The tires shrieked as I peeled away from the curb, closing the three-block distance in seconds.

I whispered. "Please? Please, what? Have mercy on you? You've been like a damn tornado rippin' through everyone's life since the day you were born. Now that you're facin' the truth of what you've done, you think someone should have pity on you? Ain't gonna be me."

I chuckled. “I went on a road trip with my family to visit my grandparents,” she said as we started walking through the front courtyard. “We had some crazy moments on the way—my dad got lost twice even with G****e Maps, and my younger brother nearly fed all our snacks to a stray goat. But it was fun. I’m so glad to be back, though. I missed you!” “I missed you too,” I said genuinely. Being with Mercy felt like stepping back into something normal. Safe. Real. A world that didn’t revolve around shadows, secrets, or… him.

The vendor called after her, "Be careful, ma'am! In an instant, Mercy was swallowed by the sea of people; the skies opened, letting loose a sheet of rain. The hawker hastened to sling the plastic bags over Mercy's arms and then muttered to himself, "This isn't going to end well." Mikel appeared, scanning the marketplace. "Mercy!" he shouted aloud over the pounding rain. And Mercy vanished in the downpour, driven by her desperate quest for Loretta.
