What would you do if you'd find all you've cherished wiped out on the very day you've stepped on the first step of your estimable ladder to success? Maddened to distraught, Basil Landsborough stands on the edge of dismal Life and sweetness of the salvation of Death.
Would he take the fatal step down the forever doom of cold demise, known as Death, or consider giving Life another chance? If he does, would he succeed in doing so or keep suicide as an alternative if things don't work out?
(Pardon the typos and little errors, have to sieve them out when I get the time to.)

Too Much To Hide || EDITING
"That means you're coming with me too then." He groans, bringing a hand up to his forehead and rubbing it in exasperation. "Excuse me?" My chest puffs up indignantly. "I don't think me or this baby will be going anywhere with you." "Ever since he was born, he and the mother have been in danger." He snarls as he comes up to my face. "And now that you've found him, your life is in equal danger." I blanch. Shaking my head, I slap down my impending terror. "Your point?" The foreboding man leans forward and switches his gaze between me and the slumbering child in my arms. "My point,"-he licks his lips-"is that I'm the only chance you have at surviving." ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Having his wife run away with his unborn son sets Adrian Raines off on a mission to find them.

[NOW TRADITIONALLY PUBLISHED WORLDWIDE] "A life of happiness would be hell on earth." • When Grace finally decided to end her life, the last thing she expected was to meet a stranger simply gazing at the stars, dangling his feet over the edge of the bridge, exactly where she had planned to jump into the abyss and end it all. What was supposed to be the last hour of Grace's life becomes the hour in which she poured her drunken, broken heart out to a stranger over a bottle of scotch and a fresh round of tears. However, before they parted their ways, the stranger offered her a deal: she must promise to hold on to her life for another seventeen days, and afterwards, she could do with it whatever she'd like. He promise to even attend her funeral if he couldn't change her mind. But why seventeen days? And why did this stranger even care? There was more to him than what met the eye, and compelled by her own curiosity, Grace couldn't refuse. Maybe these seventeen days will only prolong her suffering. Or maybe they'll open her eyes to a part of life she never knew existed, full of hope for a brighter future. And maybe, just maybe, she'll learn to fall in love. • [FEATURED UNDER NEW ADULT, YOUNG ADULT, GENERAL FICTION, HUMOR & ROMANCE] • [Extended summary inside] [Started: 1 February'2020] [Finished: 24 January'2021] ©️prettyimbecileConcluída
