Authors create tension in a story so the reader will be wondering what's going to happen, and might relate more to the story depending on where the tension is. If it's between two characters, or if the author will have one characters POV (point of view) about to have something really bad/good happen, and then change to a different POV so the reader keeps wondering what's going to happen, until it changes to the other POV again.

“Why do authors create tension in a story?”
An author usually builds tension in his/her book because a book would be very predictable if the book did not have tension. The tension in a book causes a reader to stay attached to the book to see what events happen next.

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.

In the 1400s, Spain and Portugal were competing to explore down the coast of Africa and find a sea route to Asia. That way, they could have the prized Asian spices they wanted without having to pay high prices to Venetian and Muslim middlemen. Spanish and Portuguese sailors searching for that sea route conquered the Canary Islands and the Azores. Soon they began building Muslim-style sugar plantations on the islands, some of them staffed by slaves purchased from nearby Africa. One sailor came to know these islands particularly well because he traded in "white gold"—sugar. And then, as he set off on his second voyage across the sea to what he thought was Asia, he carried sugar cane plants from Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, with him on his ship. His name was Christopher Columbus.
