I crash through the trees and out into my little opening. The river is silent tonight, and the only sound is my rasping breath, worn out from crying.
I climb up onto my rock, lying on my back. It is there, looking dishevelled with my messy hair and pyjamas, that I do what I would normally do here on any normal day.
Count the stars.
Why did I ever bring anyone else here?
***
Olivia's notebook is filled with thousands of tally marks from all those nights in which she has spent counting the stars by her favourite river.
She never lets it out of her sight, and her younger brother Alex is determined to find out why.
Olivia only brought her brother to the river once, but she regretted it every day after for as long as she lived.
Follow Olivia on a journey through her time. Her time with her river, her time with her notebook, her time with her brother, her time with her girlfriend.
Her time with her stars.

When Lucy brings her and her family through a wardrobe and into Narnia, Anne has hope that maybe this magical world will fill what she was missing. It doesn't. It gives her the short straw, just as England had. Based on the Chronicles of Narnia movies by Disney Prince Caspian x OC in later booksComplete
Desert Wind
Dear Reader, I challenge you to a duel! Yes, exactly! Prepare for a battle. The battle for your heart and soul. I'm about to whisk you away and immerse you in a world brimming with magic and secrets. But fear not, on this adventure through the wilderness, you'll be accompanied by Klelia and... that's a surprise :)) Your task is simple. You have to survive... Are you ready to take up the challenge? "I'm dead. I died back in that hut. I don't exist anymore. And now, after everything that's happened, you want to talk?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise. "Who am I to you?" He closed the distance in an instant. I had nowhere to escape; there was a wall behind me, and he stood before me. "Are you really asking who you are to me, Klelia? You are my sun and moon. The source of my suffering and pleasure. My oxygen. I breathe you every day. Every second of life without you is worthless. Without you, there is no me. That's what you are to me. My private universe. I want to immerse myself in you. To lose myself." "I'm dangerous. At any moment, I could..." Tears welled up in my eyes. "I'm not like you." "You're no more dangerous than me," he interrupted, kissing me hungrily, as if he were desperate for air. P.S. Grab your best sword and cape. Despite appearances, desert nights can be cold.

My Poetry Escape
I may just be a girl. No one special. Nothing compared to others. In the eyes of the universe, I am just a little speck of dust. My light may not shine very bright, and it may not be of any use, but I am me. Writing is my only escape out of this world. I cry rivers of ink and climb mountains of words. I may not write as well as others, but my writing is just a different style. They're my feelings. I really do hope you can connect to some of the work in here. Please, do not copy any of this work without informing me first. Thank you! "My Escape" I have a supply, In the closet near my bed, Of past memories, Hanging by a thread. A thread, Connected to my mind, That thread, Just follows me around. I have a hole, In the middle of my heart, That hole fills up, When someone's torn apart. I have a tear, Accompanying my lonely eye, Knowing, whenever I'm alone, I can sit in a corner and cry. Even though, These things are there, I still have ink, a notebook, and a pen, To care. I write and write, To my heart's desire, New feelings erupt, By the hour. Writing is, My one escape, In this cruel and careless world, I have the power, to awake. "A Story Without Words" A story told, In a little tune, A golden smile, And a shining tear, Rolling down my cheek. A little breeze, The nice sun, A marvelous day, Turned into a wet one. The memories dripped, Down on my cotton white shirt, Leaving stains, On my malicious heart. Your smile, Worth a thousand words, Can't cheer up This depressive mind. A storm bewildered, Your indecisive mind, Drowning me, In my reckless thoughts. A rainy day, A gleaming lie, A story not told, With words Nor sounds. This story is, But a mere thought, In this universe We share, Every night. This story is, A withering storm, Drifting off, In this careless soul. This story is, Not told with sounds, But a never ending blow, Of swirling emotions, Bottled up inside.Complete
River's Hope

I roll on my back and stare up at the sky tears streaming from the corner of my eyes. When River is no longer who she used to be, will she accept the help she gets offered or push it away? What will await her in this book? Who will help her? Who is out to get her now? FIND OUT NOW! (Though, please read my other book first Alpha Adopted Me, it could explain things!)

"U-um Blake what are you doing?", I say as he looks at my lips and I gaze at his blue-green eyes.
