Laura Dave The Last Thing He Told Me A

"Football isn't just a game"—it's life. For 16-year-old David Jones, football is more than a sport; it's an escape, a calling, and the only thing that makes sense in a world full of challenges. The electric thrill of scoring a last-minute winner, the roar of the crowd—it’s the closest thing to freedom he knows. But David's journey is far from simple. Blessed with extraordinary talent yet burdened by fiery anger, he’s fighting battles on and off the pitch. Growing up as the son of a Nigerian immigrant and a British mother, David navigates the pressures of cultural expectations, the weight of his own ambitions, and the scrutiny of a sport that demands perfection. Passion drives him forward, but his temper holds him back. Can he channel his emotions and prove himself worthy of being football's next big star? David Jones: The Next big thing is a gripping coming-of-age story about resilience, identity, and the unrelenting pursuit of dreams. Disclaimer: This work is a work of fiction.

In a world torn apart by magic, war, and ancient history, the lives of three unlikely heroes intertwine in ways they never imagined. Celia, a girl haunted by her resemblance to the Queen of Curses, longs for a place to belong. Despite the hatred she faces, her unyielding compassion drives her to protect the innocent, even at great personal risk. Kaiser, heir to the Asura Kingdom’s throne, has turned his back on his royal lineage. Cunning and emotionally guarded, he hides a heart scarred by betrayal and loss. As the shadow of a cruel cult looms larger, Kaiser's thirst for revenge threatens to consume him. Lucas Reinhardt, the God's chosen sorcerer with a haunted past, is a beacon of humor and courage to his friends. But beneath his carefree demeanor lies a soul deeply wounded by loss, making him fight harder to shield those he holds dear. As their paths converge, the trio must navigate a world of broken kingdoms, unspoken truths, and a rising darkness. With demons lurking in the shadows and a cult bent on destruction, their choices will shape not only their fates but the future of their world. The Last Step is a tale of resilience, revenge, and the fragile bonds of friendship forged in the face of despair. In a land where magic can both destroy and heal, can these three stand against the tide—or will their pasts drag them into the abyss?

Go and suffer with your deadbeat husband, or come with me, I will show you the fun you’ve missed.” ===== For the past five years of her marriage, Katherine “Kate” Woods, 32, had always believed she was infertile. She was unable to conceive a child and her deadbeat husband Matt always insulted her for it, calling her a useless woman despite never finding a job himself, forcing Kate to be the sole breadwinner of their family. Yet, he still had the nerve to cheat on her with her own sister! Heartbroken, Kate escaped to her office late at night with four bottles of strong red wine. To her surprise, she wasn’t alone. A handsome young man stood in her office, watching her. He refused to give her his name, but offered to keep her company for the night.

She didn’t care if they did it raw, as she always thought she was barren. Only to find herself staring at a positive pregnancy test a month later. Kate Woods, the supposedly ‘barren woman,’ was pregnant.
