Truly Like Lightning A Novel Novels & Stories

And as the dust settled, finally, Ilyria saw him. The Lightning Bird, the creature of legends, the one no Idixatian would mention without a small shiver or an anxious glance skywards. They said the Lightning Bird was neither man nor beast—a demon creature. They said those who looked on it were blinded. They said those who looked away would be marked for ruin. Yet what stood before her was only a man, his face not yet carrying the hardened edges that seemed to mark the cruelty of manhood. With his wings lowered, and his hands at his side, he looked gentle, even though the evidence of his power lay scattered still, across the street.

The heavens tore apart once more. The sky raged and churned, its thunderous voice drowning every sound as the next bolt of lightning gathered power above. Danial, broken and barely conscious, could only look up. His eyes were hollow yet stubborn, glinting faintly in defiance. The lightning was thicker than before—denser, alive, furious. It split the clouds apart with a crack that shook the ground. The world seemed to hold its breath.

--- The lightning forest doesn't welcome-it *judges*. Petrified bolts skewer the earth like divine spears, their jagged arcs frozen mid-strike, glassine surfaces reflecting fractures of our faces. The air crackles with static that doesn't fade, clinging to my skin like cobwebs. Eden trails a hand over a trunk of solidified electricity, his void-scarred fingers leaving trails of smoke. "It's alive," he murmurs. "It *remembers*."

As the sky began to lighten, I made my way home but ran into Marvin at the elevator. He glanced at me like I was nothing, scorned, and quickly looked away. "Spent the night here mulling things over? Come to any realizations?" I hit the elevator button, my voice dripping with indifference. "Yeah, I've had an epiphany. I'm done."

It hit me like a bolt of lightning, my head throbbing with pain as I jolted awake. Right. I did not have to end up like that. It was my lovesick bravery that had me shield Samuel with my own body when the accident happened. He walked away with scratches, while I was left with broken bones, a severe concussion, and trapped in a coma. I had believed that my love would be returned in kind. However, I realized that if not for my clear, bright eyes, I might have left the world two years ago.

Blood oozed out of their orifices, and they fell backwards, dead. By the time their lifeless bodies had hit the ground, Zayn was already a hundred meters away from it all. He was that fast. When lightning kills an unsuspecting victim from the ground, it does so without a herald. It strikes and incinerates at the same time. The victim falls, confused and horrified, but those arise from instincts rather than knowledge of his murderer. As abrupt as it came the lightning is then gone; everything resembling a split-second dream if not for the charred dead and the sky’s rumbling mourning.

LUNA'S POV He wanted to know if I wanted more. Did I want more? Of course, I wanted more! I opened my mouth to talk but no sound came out. The orgasm I felt was like no other. This wasn't my first time having orgasms but nothing prepared me for the one that assaulted my nerves. My body was still tingling but I wanted to continue. I doubt I would see Asher after this night which was a good thing because I didn't want to be caught up with a man like h-

It's as if I'm high on something illegal, yet I'm just allowing Theseus's magic to pour into me, and when I feel full and bursting, I open my arms, reflecting that energy out of myself. The sky lights up like a beckoned light. The storm shifted to the right and the left. Disappearing from my very sight, I expel it to clear the sky back to the bright blue one. Theseus flies towards me at that exact moment touching my face and turning me to him. "You can hold lightning?" He asks me. "I can?" I ask back. Is that what I just did, yielding lightning like he obviously does? "The things we do not know about you, Lilith." He shakes his head as he brings me back down to earth. My feet hit the wet flo

she screamed out as he sent a lightning punch to her chest region,he sped after her, gripping her neck and smashed her on the ground. She could resist screaming in pain as she felt her spinal bones being crushed by the lightning man. Blood kept oozing out of her body as he blasted her with lightning. "Let me finish this"he said as he hovered over the extremely weak Mira lying down on the ground as she waited for her final death. Mira gazes at the dagger which she threw at the guy the other time laying beside him. She quickly picked the dagger and thrust it at his neck with her last strength as the man gripped her by neck.

“Oh, Heavens! Is there no mercy left in this world?” Truett exclaimed as the dense lightning suddenly descended and enveloped him. In the next moment, numerous terrifying forces within the dense lightning began a fierce assault on him. He trembled violently within the lightning, just like a wild dancer in a nightclub.

His entire soul trembled violently in response to the lightning’s penetration.
