All Chapters of The Garden Of Rising Stars: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

As Collen was able to peel the girls off of him he couldn't help but smile. Apparently all of the men present felt the same way because everyone still present were all smiling at him while he was straightening himself out."You're the man boss!""I would give almost anything for your kind of luck boss!"Collen couldn't even bring himself to admonish the men for calling him boss in front of others at the moment. He was to happy from the hugging, boobs in the face, and more so that he was able to pull all of the girls from that situation with them still smiling. 'I will give everything I have, if it means them keeping those smiles.'  Collen waved to all of the men who were currently moving the prisoners downstairs. Just as Collen had imagined, sure enough some of Joe's men died in the battle upstairs even though it was a melee, the steel batons packed more than a small punch, and if the people were being forced to give it all in the fight or lack

Collen spent the duration of the drive absentmindedly stroking Evelyn's hair even well after she fell asleep looking out the window, 'A new moon huh? It feels as though even the night's sky is trying to envelope me in darkness tonight. Despite all of the street lights, cars passing by,  the lit up houses. Collen couldn't help but feel it was just a dark night.  Since the moments of Joe's death his mind downright refused to be silenced.'Why?.. Why did it have to play out like that?... He should have suffered longer! The pain he experienced before his death wasn't enough! There's zero chance he would have even felt gunshot for even a quarter of a second!' For Collen there was nothing of greater importance than Evelyn's safety. You add Kendra, Daphne, and Alison to that mix, Collen couldn't help but feel his actions were more than justified. 'For close to a decade she has been the one good thing in my life. Without her-' Collen glanced down a

Collen having just managed to slip away during the chaos unfolding made a mad dash for the shower shortly after Kendra tried putting the moves on Evelyn. If there was one thing he could say for certain, is Kendra would probably be on his heels trying to join him if he didn't hurry... Or Daphne... Or Evelyn.. All three?.. 'Okay that doesn't sound too bad.. Concentrate Collen concentrate!'Collen made sure to quickly finish rinsing himself off and turning off the water. As he left the restroom he could see Evelyn holding onto Kendra's wrist sipping her coffee with her eyes closed. When she set down her mug she opened her eyes noticing Collen before Kendra was able to releasing her grip."HAHA Here I com- ... Boo!" The second she was released Kendra took off like a slingshot running straight for the restroom until her eyes found Collen. Her excitement immediately waning seeing as Collen already finished his shower. " I expect both of you to make this up to me tonight." Ke

Brroooaar.Collen was woken up by the loud roaring engines of what could be described as a slumbering beast. Instantly he was able to deduce he had already been loaded onto a giant C130 with four engine turboprops flying back to what he could only assume was the United States or Germany. Collen's was unable to suppress his curiosity as he looked around the plane's fuselage. There were dozens of other medical stretchers strapped down in the hold along with over a dozen medical staff. Some were faces Collen even recognized... Even one..That was close... Very close..."Bruiser... Either kiss me or get that ugly mug out of my face.""HEY YOU'RE AWAKE!""SHH!" One of the medical attendants did her best to shush the man."W-What are you doing here?" Collen groaned trying his best to sit up but bruiser held his shoulders down."Hey man chill you can't be moving around much plus you're strapped down anyways. You had a bad concussion, to

Liana couldn't believe her ears. She felt a wave of nostalgia washing over her as memories she almost forgot about began flooding back in her mind.  The more she looked, the more she heard, she couldn't help but believe this was far too much of a coincidence. He's Irish, he looks older which stands to reason but for the most part their features are the same, I'm almost certain his name was Collen.Her mind began filling with memories of when she was sixteen years old, she was on a vacation in Ireland with her family. They had just arrived the day before and were suffering from some serious jet lag, but Liana? Not a chance. She was brimming with excitement. There were so many things she wanted to see, so much she wanted to do! Despite her parent's repeated warnings and insisting for her not to leave the hotel alone. She did what any child would do.... Ignored them. She soon left telling them she was going to explore the hotel. In reality she immediately ran out the front
