“Matty raped one of my sorority sisters,” she blurted out. “I just found out tonight.”
She elbowed her way into my room, and sat on my bed. “Please, come in and regale me with a story about my cousin’s evil sexcapades,” I grumbled.
Rina huffed impatiently. “I’m trying to convince her to go to the police and make a report, but she won’t.”
I rubbed my hands over my face. “I’m not surprised. Uncle Fari

“Rose! Wait up!” I turned to see who was calling me across the quad, and found Heather running toward me with Dave behind her.“Hey! How are you?” I asked when she caught up with me. I hadn’t seen her in a few weeks, but that last meeting wasn’t happy.“Great. Have you met Dave?” she gestured to the bulky half vampire behind her.Dave put his arm around her. “Rose and I met shortly before I met you.”“Oh.” I tried not to giggle as Heather looked from him, to me, to him again. “Are you two friends or foes?”“Friends, I hope,” I answered.

I was sitting in the GLE house with the rest of the sorority. It was the first time I’d been there since Rose and I were drugged, and I was not comfortable being back. However, Sarina told me I needed to be here for this meeting since she was enacting her plan to oust Chelsea.“I know you don’t want to be here, or tell everyone what happened in high school, but they need to hear it,” Rina said as she squeezed my hand. “They need to know why you didn’t come back.”“Do they though?” I whispered.“If my suspicions are correct, then yes, they do,” she answered.Chelsea came into the room followed by her minions. Yelena, I noticed, looked a little di

Thanksgiving came around all too soon. Ray left early so he would get a night by himself with Sue, and the rest of us flew out Wednesday morning. With Rachel coming with us, Jimmy and Rina were the odd wolves out, and stuck next to each other on the flights. Rina wasn’t happy about that, but Jimmy was thrilled.Me? I was terrified. It was one thing to tell Ma she was going to be a grandmother when she couldn’t easily kill me. It was another to face her in person after telling her. I’m sure to have some passive aggressive words waiting for me. Kimi’s parents might actually kill me. Then there are the Braedons. Mrs. Braedon scares the shit out of me, and she loves Kimi like a daughter.“Relax,” Kimi placed a hand on my leg as our plane touched down at the airport nearest Aspen Falls. “They&rsqu

“I don’t get why I have to sit in the middle when I’ve done nothing wrong,” Rina complained as she buckled her seatbelt.“You’ve got the skinniest butt, Sis,” Ray stated.Mom glanced at us in the rearview mirror. “Kimi’s pregnant, so she gets shot-gun.” Kimi turned and stuck her tongue out.“All the more reason she should be squished. Her or your tattooed son,” Rina grumbled.“Don’t worry, my darling good child, your time will come,” Mom smirked.“Mom!” Ray and I exclaimed.Kimi just shook her head

“My babies!” Mom squealed as Sue and I entered the house before nearly choking us around our necks.“Oof! Mom! It hasn’t been that long,” Sue grumbled.“I know,” Mom said, “but with only Mallory wandering around, it’s boring.”“Mom exaggerates,” Mal said from the couch. “Glad you two are back, though. Please distract Dad!”“You’re still not supposed to be dating until you’re thirty!” Dad shouted from where he’d disappeared in the kitchen.I plopped onto the couch next to my little sister. “So, what did you do to piss off dad?&r

Grandfather was coming to Thanksgiving, and we were going to introduce him to everyone. Fan-fucking-tastic. The night before, Sue tapped on my window in the form of an adorable fox. She had amazing reddish fur, and the softest tail I’d ever felt.“You know, I would have let you in the front door,” I told her when I opened my window to my basement room. She took a great deal of pleasure in flicking that tail around me. “Careful, Susan. I’m very tempted to pull it.”I sat on my bed, and she climbed onto my lap. She put her forepaws on my chest, and began to shift. “What if I wanted you to pull it?” she asked in a sultry voice. I had my best friend, my perfect woman, stradling me naked. I was naked as well, since I expected her visit.

“There’s something a little wrong about doing Thanksgiving buffet style,” Jimmy complained as he helped me spread table cloths on the tables in the multipurpose room of a church near my house.I smirked at him. “Poor baby. Are your traditions going out the window this year?”“A little. Starting with inedible food not being served,” he grumbled.I laughed at him. “Not a fan of your mother’s cooking?”“Oh, no. I’m a huge fan of her cooking. I just know that it’s an acquired taste,” he grinned.I rolled my eyes at him. “You are such a weirdo.”

“Fine,” Uncle Faridoon slammed his hand on the table. “If there is evidence against my son, then he will be tried. Our family name will be dragged through the mud, and we will be disrespected among our kind. Is that what you want?”“What I want are children who are responsible for their actions,” Grandfather bellowed. He pointed at me. “Look at Kimia. She was abused, had her virtue forcibly taken, and has rebuilt her life with a boy who is more of a man than Matteo.”“Yeah,” Matteo scoffed, “a boy who knocked her up.”“Like Fari did to your mother, pup,” Uncle Jaspar chuckled and Aunt Blythe smacked his shoulder.Grandfather sighed.

“Fuck,” I swore as Ray kicked my ass at Mario Kart. Ray chuckled with both hands in the air. “Suck it, pup! I finally won for the first time since you were ten!”I tossed the controller and ran my hands over my face. Game nights at the frat house and losing to my brother were the least of my worries. Rose had been officially charged with manslaughter, and bailed out until her trial in a few weeks. At the advice of her lawyer, Rose and her mom signed a temporary lease at another apartment complex. Something about not sleeping with the victim’s family.“You are off your game, bro,” one of my frat brother’s slurred. “Nobody beats Kamron the Machine.”Ray bumped my shoulder. “He’s right. You’re stressing more than usual.”“Maybe because Rose has been avoiding me,” I sighed. Garrett, a sophomore, shook his head. “You must be reading too much into it. That girl is head over heels for you. She’s probably just overwhelmed with her trial and shit.”I shook my head. “I’ve known her my whole l

“Come on back, and we’ll have you give us a urine sample, then Rina will draw some blood samples to make sure your baby is okay,” Deb’s voice filtered through the office to my station. It’d been a little busier this month, but that was to be expected a few weeks after Spring Break. Lots of little surprises.“R-rina?” a familiar voice stammered. “Rina works here?” Elli and Deb rounded the corner to my space, and I had the sample cup ready with the alcohol wipes.“I sure do, Ellie,” I replied. “Congratulations. The bathroom is right through that door, and I’ll be here ready to draw your samples when you’re done.” I pointed to the door of the restroom where our expecting mothers give their samples every time they come in.Deb looked between us. “You two know each other?” I shrugged. “Small school, and we spent Spring Break together in Mexico.”Elli was pale and shaking a little as she grabbed the cup she was supposed to pee into, then made a b-line for the bathroom. Deb leaned over to m

“Now, Kimi,” Dr. Mayfeld started on our bi-monthly telesessino, “have you and Nate talked about finding a couples therapist to help the two of you transition into parenthood?”I shook my head. “Not yet. We will, but between school and my cousin’s demise, we haven’t exactly made it a priority.”“I understand,” she nodded. “I hate to say it, but you and your friends have gone through one hell of a year. Are you sure you aren’t cursed?”I laughed. “If I believed in curses, I might think that too. I mean, it is possible that Kirsten cursed us when she went to prison.”“Seriously,” she calmed down, but still smiled, &ldq

My parents knocked on our apartment door a few hours after we’d come home from the station. I really appreciated Kimi telling off Kam for me. It was the weirdest feeling. I was almost out of my body for most of the afternoon. It was a little surreal. I also both wanted to be hugged and cuddled, but I also wanted to be left alone.I kept thinking that it was my fault a person was dead. Yes, Matty was a horrible person who attacked me, but I didn’t want him dead! Call me optimistic, but I hoped for him to pay for his crimes, then come out a better person who had learned to respect others.I’d spent most of my time in my room, and barely registered when my mom walked in and sat on my bed. “Oh, my sweet Rose,” she sighed and pushed my curls out of my face. “I am so sorry you have to go thro

“Shit hit the fan, and I’m at my sister’s for a few days,” I explained to Elli over the phone.“I can’t believe all that has happened,” Elli replied. “Is Rose okay?”I sunk into my sister’s couch and sighed. “I honestly don’t know. They hadn’t returned by the time I cleared out. I hope her parents don’t find my room disgusting.”“Why wouldn’t they just get a hotel?” Elli asked.The question confused me. “I’m sure they could, but their daughter just killed a guy in self defense. She kinda needs all her family around her now.” Then a thought occurred to me. “Were you thinking about

“I want to see my fiance. I need to know she’s okay,” I shouted at the officer at the front desk of the police station.Kimi put a hand on my shoulder. “Kam, calm down. They have to go through the hoops. Besides, Officer West sounded like someone who is fair.”I spun to face my sister. “My fiance and your best friend is back there by herself, probably scared to death, and the only people available to her are people in our uncle’s pocket. I’m not going to calm down until I know she’s safe!”“Kam, you making a scene isn’t going to get her out here faster,” Nate tried to reason. He turned to the officer. “Is there someone who can come out and tell us what happened?”

Blake finally managed to push the door to the men’s room open. He broke the lock in the process, but the screaming he heard terrified him. He regretted not being faster when he observed the scene.A man was lying under a broken urinal with eye wide open, and unfocused. His jaw was slack, and a shocking amount of blood was pooled under his head. He looked back out into the hall, and grabbed a random student. “Call 911, and get someone here, now!”The student glanced into the bathroom. “Holy shit!”Blake carefully walked around the body to the woman shuddering in a ball against the wall of the open stall. “Hey,” he said gently. “Are you okay?” He reached a hand to her shoulder, and she flinched.

“Welcome back, everyone,” Professor Anderson greeted the class when she walked into the room. “I hope everyone had a fun, safe spring break? I see we’re still missing a few people. Hopefully they return before the next class. In the meantime, please go to the class webpage.”I already had it up, so I just scanned the page looking for what I expected her to click. I found it under the assessments tab. “I would hope you all are intelligent enough to find what I’d like you to do today, but in case you’re hung over, or not up to your best mental state, find the assessments tab, and click on the test titled, ‘Post Spring Break Quiz.’“The password is capital ‘I’ underscore, paid, underscore, too, with two ‘o’s, underscore, much, underscor

The apartment in Gayl was becoming more and more like home to me. Walking through the apartment door Sunday before school started felt like a weight was lifting off my shoulders. Granted, Kimi and I still needed to finish the nursery for our little girl, and we still had school, but we were happiest here. At least I was, anyway.I guess Kimi wasn’t as happy. She waddled into our room, and fell onto the bed on her back. “Ugh,” she grunted, “would you be offended if I said I miss the bed in Boston?”I chuckled. “Not at all. It was a damn comfortable bed..”“Much bigger than this full size one,” she said and rolled over so she could sit up. “I swear if this little girl gets much bigger, we’ll need a bigger bed.&r
