What The River Knows Kindle Novels & Stories

Her mother was chanting, weaving the binding spell that had kept Jesse hidden. “The water remembers what the blood forgets,” her mother’s voice whispered in the rush of the current. Suddenly, the river rose. A rogue wave, powered by an unseen force, slammed into Jesse, knocking her off her feet. She went under, the dark, silken water swallowing her whole. Silence. In the depths of the river, Jesse didn't panic. She felt the two halves of her soul finally stop fighting. Her wolf wanted to claw for the surface; her witch wanted to command the water to part.

River stood up from her place, her steak forgotten on her plate, “You didn't know anything about me. You were young. Stop blaming yourself for it. It's just a part of my life that I'd rather forget." “Hey. Don’t be upset,” he rose to his feet and went to her, his eyes filled with empathy, "I won't press you for any more information. Ok?" Marwick assured her and shifted back her hair gently off her forehead, "You can share what you're comfortable with, in your own time." "Thank you," River sighed, and for some reason, she wanted to cry. She wanted to tell Marwick about Keanu. She wanted to tell Marwick about Keanu’s girlfriend. How they both were crazy about each other.

I picked it up lazily, my fingers lingering on the edges as I opened it. For a moment, I hoped it was just another mundane report from one of my vineyards. I didn’t have time for anything else right now, not with Camila's wedding coming up, not with the tension building between the family, the cartel, and Elijah. I didn’t need distractions. I flipped through the pages, expecting nothing. But then my eyes stopped at the title. It hit me like a fucking punch to the gut. An article. Written by Elijah Rivera. About the Valerios.

His promises to me were as fragile as bubbles, vanishing into thin air. When I was ten, the River family adopted me. My father and Rowan's dad, Patrick River, had been good friends. When my father was diagnosed with cancer, he entrusted me to Patrick before he passed. When I first arrived at the Rivers household, everyone except Patrick was cold to me. Since I was adopted, the maids and even Rowan's mother thought it was unnecessary to show me any respect. I had to tiptoe around, just trying to survive in that house.

He alerts her, frantic and suddenly shaking all over. "I don't know you very well, but I know enough to be confident that you, River Kennedi can whip this thing right back into shape, even singlehandedly." Grace remarks and River sighs cumbrously. Peering down at the thick file jacket in his hand, with his own take on the presentation.

He chatted with them, listening to their stories and telling them his own, before he stood up, and walked toward the new group of orphans from Asher's orphanage. It didn't take long for his eyes to go to the Luna's stomach once he realized the awkward way he was walking. His eyes narrowed in on the large round belly. His eyes snapped to the white haired person's eyes when they spoke to him. He immediately whimpered and ducked down, hiding behind whoever he could, terrified of this person. "Come here sweetheart, I promise I won't hurt you! My name is Noah, I'm the Luna here at River Pack. My mates are Alpha Michael, and Alpha Asher.

"One of the ladies outside told me he occupied this room. Am I in the right place?" "My price depends on the service you want to ask me." I propose to her before I lock my eyes on hers. "how much can you afford to unfold someone's truth and...?" I could not help but cut off my words when for the very first time in history, my wolf found someone as pure as her. Pure in a way that my eyes could barely read what was running through her mind. In a blink of an eye, I can read everyone's secrets, but with this woman in front of me, her eyes were similar to an empty can.

His Dad unknown. The next paragraph was what got my heart beating, Jake and River were childhood sweethearts, they dated up on till high school. And from the report River tried to contact him but he shuned her. Their most recent contact was recorded to be yesterday at a wine store yesterday. I put the phone down in anger. I know she isn't mine, but to think she had genuine feelings for the guy made me extremely mad. The fact the stupid man even fumbled her was mind blowing, who fumbles a woman like River!

"What are you crying about? You scared that woman so bad she miscarried, and now you're the one upset?" "Her baby wasn't healthy," Alice shot back, tilting her head defiantly. "The doctor said it would have Down syndrome, so it's better it didn't make it! How's that my fault?" Helena let out a big sigh from the back seat. "I can't tell if this girl's a good or bad one." Grandma reached over and stroked my hair, saying, "Zoe's the good one." After Grandma finished her walk in the park, Helena had to stop by the hospital to pick up Grandma's medications, so we all went with her.

Rowan's POV “That bitch is shameless, son.” My mother scoffed. “Does she know that he's a lunatic?” She asked, but I shook my head like she could see me. “I doubt it, Mom, because if she does…” I trailed off due to a lack of what to say. Even if River knows that he was a drug addict, I doubt she'll ever leave him. She'll do anything out of love, after all.” “I mean that day she agreed to take my place in jail. Therefore, she'll do anything for love. But in this case, I doubt she's doing it out of her love for him. River doesn't love him. She is only doing everything to get back at me. Fucking bitch.
