1- Leaving The Heart Behind

Hope

I put my foot on the accelerator to speed up my car through the empty road. ‘Thunder’ by Imagine Dragons was blaring through the speakers of my Porche. I had just crossed the borders of Texas and was speeding my way inside the city.

I checked the map on my brand new phone once more to make sure that I was going the right way. It showed that I would be reaching my wanted destination in just two more hours.

I could not help but notice the calmness and relaxation that had suddenly covered my heart. This was a feeling that I had not experienced in five years. And right now, I felt like I had just accomplished the biggest task of kindness that had ever been given to me.

Like I had just saved a life.

Mine.

Three days ago, I had left North Carolina and five years of torcher behind. And since then, I was on a run, trying to make sure that the army of monsters somehow leave me unharmed.

Now you would think why would a girl living in North Carolina, moreover driving a Porche would try to make herself look like a torcher victim so pathetically.

So let us clear the story now. My story.

See, at the age of twenty, where nobody else was even thinking about if they would be getting an employment or not, because of my hard work and determination, I was set to score the highest marks in the university.

My parents had gotten killed just a year ago in a car accident, so I was doing my best to live a life that my parents would have been proud of.

They had always said that I was their hope. I was the ray of sunshine that had lit up their lives since the day of my arrival in the world. This is why they had named me the feeling that they had gotten after seeing me for the first time- Hope.

I had a super hot, and rich Italian boyfriend whose family owned a business so large, it was hard to keep the track of their properties.

I was in love with him. He was the man who made me see stars in broad daylight with the love that he showered upon me.

On the day of graduation, he proposed me for marriage. I was on the top of the world that day.

I had felt like this was it! This is how the rest of my life is going to look like. This is how much happy I am going to be with this man. My Ethan.

I agreed to marry him. We got married the next month in a beautiful ceremony with his parents and some close relatives present there to congratulate us.

The first three months were heaven. As the fourth one started rolling around, I realized how big of the puddle of mud it was that I had gotten myself stuck into.

Slowly, the people associated in business with my husband and his parents started coming around our house.

Strange people.

People with guns, and bodyguards, and gangs with hockey sticks and knives tied to them.

And then I realized, I had just fucked up my whole life.

The Runaway Mafia Queen 26- Lost In The Dust
The hours passed by and then there were sounds of gunshots, loud yelling, and screams. Hope started shivering. She knew something was wrong, in fact, everything felt wrong in that moment. Her heart was in a panic. She could not dare lift up her head and look out from the window of the car. She wanted to go and find Varys, she could feel the panic throbbing inside her. But she did not want to get him in trouble, she did not want to become a liability and she did not know what the hell was going inside that house. All she knew was that there was some really scary shit going on inside the house and Varys and his family were in danger.Her hands fumbled to find her mobile phone and thankfully, after much struggle of trying to hold it in her fumbling fingers, she managed to dial 911.*****Before the Police came, the gunshots had stopped and the house had gotten covered in silence.

The Runaway Mafia Queen 25- Happiness and Panic
Hope stayed rooted to her seat, she felt like her soul was getting crushed and mixing in her heart, her mind completely blank while her fingers twitched to slip in the back of Varys' head, clutch his hair and press his mouth against hers even harder.A few seconds later Varys slowly pulled himself back hesitatingly. His eyes came down to meet hers while her tongue slipped out to lick her lower lip, suddenly feeling parched as hell."Varys," she whispered softly, unable to fathom what to say to him. A moment of realization passed between them, both knew what they wanted, both knew that they had feelings deeper than of friendship between them, but both of them were afraid to voice the words aloud. But then instead of saying anything, both of them leaned towards each other at once, like magnets getting attracted without control. Their hands found their way in the back of heads, their mouths landin

The Runaway Mafia Queen 24- Back to Us
Hope woke up to the blinding light and white walls. Everything felt surreal to her. Was she even alive or was this heaven? Her eyes blinked a couple of times before managing to open fully. Everything around her was white and too shiny. There was a complete silence in her ears right before the loud chatter patter of people and things started to enter through her brain like a loud crash. Groaning, she slipped up the bed and tried to find someone. Well, good thing she figured out that this was not heaven that she was lying in, this was a freaking hospital. She had barely registered it through her head, trying to figure out how she ended up here and then remembering being at the party and things that happened with Varys when the door to her room opened and Varys walked in. He was still wearing the same clothes th

Till Worlds Do Us Part

Miriam Mavuzi

How would you feel if one day, your whole life and the things you knew suddenly changed? How would you feel, if you were placed in a foreign place and you were the odd one out? Well, this is a story about one plane crash. One world lost. One world found and the odd one in it. A 24-year-old teacher on a flight to teach where the need is greater, does not know that the plane she’s on, will crash before she even reaches her destination. Fortunately she survives the plane crash but wakes up in a village. However, she does not recall anything. She quickly adapts to village life, meaning: water from wells, river baths and no cellphones. There are strict laws in this village, for example, unmarried people are not allowed to be close to each other or even seen together. If they are caught or suspected of anything, they are beheaded in front of the whole village. When she begins falling for one of the villagers, Yoké, no rule seems big enough to keep them apart.
