-----------------

He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" - Mark 4:39

***

Is love blind? 
Does love deny the existence of wounds? Of scars? 

In the eyes of Chase Jones, these questions and more are all that ever stay within the storm that is his life. All else in its path either runs or faces its demise. To survive this path alone, he first had to accept the word as truth. Alone. 

Until his butterfly returned, rippling his sea with each flutter of her wings, stirring new hopes, dreams, and the dangerous possibility that the word alone may be yet another thing he will have no choice but to let go of. 

To let go of such a reality would be a risk, one he is unprepared for. While it is the answer to his most desperate prayers, it is also the fear that strengthens the storm.

"Don't even think about it." I stood frozen in place as he said those words from behind me, which sent shivers down my spine. The rain started running down my face as I started thinking of a way out of here. My body trembled in fear knowing that he could easily hurt me. I'm not strong against someone like him Thoughts raced through my mind as I tried to think of a way to get away from him. But there was nothing but endless trees around me. I blinked away the water running into my eyes due to the rain. My thoughts were disturbed when he suddenly spun me around to face him, his face just inches away from mine. "P-Please don't hurt m-me." I stuttered out. I tried to sound brave and not let my fear show, but my mouth betrayed me. His golden red eyes flickered with a hint of pain for a moment then back to a cold stare, "I'd never hurt you, never put you in harm's way and I'm never letting him take you from me, you're mine." He said in a deep low voice, almost a growl, and his eyes seemed to have gotten darker. 'What the hell is that supposed to mean?!' I tried taking a step back but his grip on my arm tightened. It hurt. "L-let me go, you, you're hurting me!" I looked up at him scared, his eyes were now completely dark, and the next thing I noticed were pointed teeth poking out from his lips. I screamed and pushed at him but he didn't budge. I then raised my knee and kneed him between the legs with all my force, and he dropped like a rock, holding his groin. Run. I took my chance. And ran. ~~~ Nora Brown, is a normal adult, living a normal life. Moving away from home to start fresh and meet new people. Just going where life takes her.

"Just one storm, whether physical or mental, has the power to devastate your life. Now, imagine the impact of back-to-back storms on your life..." ----------------------------------- Glimpse The storm outside pounded the windows, but the real tempest was in the room. "Why can't you just leave me alone?" she screamed, her voice cracking with desperation. Her body was tense, ready to flee, but there was nowhere to run. He stood unmoved, his gaze cold and unyielding. "Stop screaming," he commanded, his voice a dangerous whisper. "It's not good for you." She laughed bitterly. "If you care, then respect my wishes and let me go." In an instant, he closed the distance, gripping her wrist firmly. "I didn't survive all that chaos just to let you walk away," he said, his voice low and intense. "You complete me. I won't let you go." Tears welled in her eyes, but she held them back. "Please, just let me go. You've already taken what you wanted." His grip tightened, his voice a dark, deliberate whisper. "You're right. I have what I want-" He leaned in closer, his breath warm against her skin. "-and that's you." Outside, the storm raged, but the real storm was between them, far from over. ----------------------------------- #2 in fiction❤️ This is my first book so your support and valuable comments are appreciated The images I used belong to their respective owners the photos are from Pinterest Please support my book Copyright ©️ 2024 [OlyV99] All rights reserved.

17-year-old Abigail Wells, known as Abbie, is shipped off to live with her estranged mother. The same woman whom Abbie has not seen since she was about three years old. Abbie's dad, Keith, is not a good guy and hates her passionately. Her home life was not good growing up yet he was the only parent she has ever known. Her only constant. Adeline Cobwell, Abbie's mother, lives in a small town, Reef's Paradise located in Florida. As the name indicates, the town is sort of a paradise for people residing there. Hidden alcove of a town, separated from busy cities surrounding it. The local saying, 'once you are here, you never want to leave,' is something all townsfolk here adhere to. Just like any other small town, Reef's Paradise has its own stories and secrets. Most of such stories are known to all the residents but unknown to the newcomer, Abbie. One such intriguing story is about the Light House, located at the far end of the town on a deserted beach. There is something about the stories, and the Light House itself that attracts Abbie even before she finds out a secret, hiding in it. This is a story about Abbie's journey to self-discovery, to learn what love and care truly mean. Being a teenager is not easy nor is peeling off layers of masks, especially when you have them on for so long. When anger is the only emotion Abbie's known to express for so long things are bound to explode. This is my first story here. Comments and feedback are appreciated.

The disciples woke him and said to him, "Teacher, don't you care if we drown?" - Mark 4:38 When Rose told Jack she would never let go, Abigail may have taken it to heart a little too much. Chase Jones. The name alone fills her with dread, and Abigail is pretty positive she'll hold this hatred in her heart until the moment she takes her final breath. Not only was he her personal bully for years; he was also the son of her father's military commander, making her seem like easier prey. But things take an unexpected, one-hundred-and-eighty degree turn when she stumbles upon a secret he tried so desperately to keep hidden. She begins to dream of life in foster care through the eyes of a little boy who wants nothing more than to experience unconditional love. To him, it would be like living in a fairytale. The kind of fairytale Abigail has lived in her entire life. After hearing about a family in need, Abigail finds her heart breaking for whoever they might be. Being the helper that she is, she decides to volunteer herself, but soon discovers just who she signed up to help. She knows this won't be easy. What she has yet to fully grasp is that, just as every storm has a starting point, every person has a story, and every story has at least one storm.
