Au début du règne de Louis XVIII, le 24 février 1815, jour où Napoléon quitte l'île d'Elbe, Edmond Dantès, jeune marin de dix-neuf ans, second du navire Le Pharaon débarque à Marseille pour s'y fiancer le lendemain avec la Catalane Mercédès. Trahi par des « amis » jaloux, il est dénoncé comme conspirateur bonapartiste et enfermé dans une geôle du château d'If, au large de Marseille. Après quatorze années, d'abord réduit à la solitude et au désespoir puis régénéré et instruit par un compagnon de captivité, l'abbé Faria, il réussit à s'évader et prend possession d'un trésor caché dans l'île de Monte-Cristo et dont l'abbé, avant de mourir, lui avait signalé l'existence. Riche et puissant désormais, Dantès se fait passer pour le comte de Monte-Cristo et entreprend méthodiquement de se venger de ceux qui l'ont accusé à tort et fait emprisonner. Le Comte de Monte-Cristo est un roman d'Alexandre Dumas, écrit avec la collaboration d'Auguste Maquet et achevé en 1844. Il est partiellement inspiré de faits réels.

■ Écrit par Maurice Leblanc (1913) ■ "Monsieur Arsène Lupin a l'honneur de vous faire part de son mariage avec Mademoiselle Angélique de Sarzeau-Vendôme, princesse de Bourbon-Condé, et vous prie d'assister à la bénédiction nuptiale qui aura lieu en l'église Sainte-Clothilde." Le duc Jean de Sarzeau-Vendôme ne put achever la lecture des lettres qu'il tenait dans sa main tremblante. Pâle de colère, son long corps maigre agité de frissons, il suffoquait. « Voilà ! dit-il à sa fille en lui tendant les deux papiers. Voilà ce que nos amis ont reçu ! Voilà ce qui court les rues depuis hier. Hein ! Que pensez-vous de cette infamie, Angélique ? Qu'en penserait votre pauvre mère, si elle vivait encore ? »

Highest Ranks: #1 in They Both Die At The End 2/4/19 #1 in population control 2/4/19 #3 in distress- 8/2/18 #22 in short story collection- 1/1/19 |~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~| This story is by Adam Silvera. The cover is owned by Adam Silvera. • Stories may include spoilers. Reading They Both Die At The End beforehand is recommended, but not necessary to enjoy the book. |~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~| Within this book are one-shots that I wrote about TBDATE (I.e. certain characters get endings, an epilogue, theories that I have, etc.) and a story (description below) called The Afterlife in which Rufus and Mateo are taken on crazy adventures. |~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~|~~~| It was silent up here. Everything looked so peaceful down below, it was easy to imagine a world where nobody fought. Peace settled over my heart. "Yo, are you seeing this?" Rufus's voice crackled through the earpiece. I looked over at his hang glider and smiled warmly. "Yeah. It's beautiful." "Not as beautiful as you." I snorted, although that's exactly what I had been thinking about him. "Yeah, right. This place is more beautiful than everybody." 'Except you,' I wanted to add. "I was 'flirting', Mateo." "Right. My bad." He didn't respond. I listened to his breath and watched the beauty of The Afterlife go by... • The Afterlife seemed perfect at first. They were with their families again, they had an unlimited supply of activities to do, and they didn't have to worry about anything. That is, they didn't have to worry about anything until a mysterious girl showed up at their door with a note, telling them not to trust anyone and to find someone named Vincenzo Moretti... They had two options: Ignore the note and go make out in their new hot tub; or find Vincenzo and figure out what the hell was going on. Only, it wasn't that simple; after all, the entire fate of The Afterlife now rested upon their shoulders. Xoxo Bella L.
