CYRUS

I spent the whole day pissing Cross off with nothing but my presence and his mom was an absolute sweetheart. She pinched his cheek whenever she could, took pictures with me, grinning really hard— the poor woman was just excited that her sore loser son finally had some company.

I knew Cross was a loner but enough to make his own mother wish he was rebellious— now that was some extra points for him.

At the end of the day, I had filled my Instagram with photos of the shop and I knew it would pull enough people.

Why did I do this? Because I wanted to drill it into Cross's thick skull that if he thought he could get rid of me, he had to think again.

His mom's coffee shop was cozy and I enjoyed the peace and quiet— sure it needed more people to keep the business running smoothly but left for me, I could walk in here and buy the whole place for the whole day.

I mean my dad didn't just spend his years fucking around like a damn church rat. It's like saying vampires lived so long and cou

    CROSS Sofia was absent all day. What's worse, she didn't respond to any of my texts nor did she return my calls. I almost drilled a hole into my phone with my glare. I picked up the burger and ate, meeting Cyrus gaze where he sat with his friends. He was gloomy and upset ever since I declined his gentle request to sit with them. I didn't want to cause more problems than I've already had. The whole school was talking about it and Patricia was nowhere in school. She probably faked period cramps or something. "Don't you think it's weird that Cyrus keeps looking here?" James asked, his head turned in Cyrus's direction. "Stop. It's rude to stare," I took a huge bite from the burger, chewing slowly as I turned my head around, feeling self-conscious all of a sudden. The air was choking and the hall kind of uncomfortable to breathe in. "He keeps staring at you." As he should, is what I want to say but I'd rather not. Instead, I grabbed the bottle of water and gulped it down. Lunch break

    CROSSI woke up the next morning to Cyrus by my side and I couldn’t help but stare at him. He looked peaceful, at ease, and mine.It was way too early in the morning to blush but I couldn’t let myself roll out of bed when he was still here, so I snuggled closer, breathing him in like I could gobble him up and digest him.His voice suddenly rumbled low in his chest and I froze, eyes going wide as I'd now been caught red handed. His hands wrapped me in and he thrust one leg between mine.“What are you doing?”He sounded sexy. Too sexy for me to mention and now my morning wood was right on his thigh. Cyrus tensed and slowly started to get up.“Its’s not what you think,” I started to say but he rolled me onto my back, hovering over me with dishevelled hair and a smirk on his lips.“It’s a normal reaction,” I said while trying not to blush.“Not around me, it isn’t. You're just begging for some.”“Cyrus, please. It's Wednesday. Mom will be at my door any minute.” Speaking of, she was suppo

    CROSSI was hanging on for my dear life. The ride was like a first class ticket to the grave. Seth handled the wheels like we were all immortal and my heart raced with tremendous fear.“I know it's fucking urgent but can you please slow down!” I screamed at the top of my lungs, but while I was crumbling in fear, Lucian hummed and drummed on his thigh, bobbing his head to my screams as though they were a special kind of music for him.He looked unbothered.“Relax,” Seth said. “It's not like I want a scratch too.”“A scratch? You think this is going to leave us with just a scratch-” wait a minute. “I can die! You're both immortal!”Lucian barked a laugh, “Precisely.”Shit! They were trying to get me killed!We arrived in minutes and my legs trembled as I got down from the car.“We have seven minutes if your mom is sticking to ten minutes like she thought,” Seth announced, walking in front of me as he pushed the door open.Sounds of laughter rolled from the TV and I looked to the couch.

    CROSS I heard the door open and I turned my head to it. The hot towel my mom placed on my head starts to slide down and I quickly throw my hand on it. The hot towel did nothing to help, but mom insisted and I didn't want to make a fuss about it. Plus, she was already feeling shitty about not being able to help me with anything. "Lucian?" I started to get up once he walked into the room like he owned the place. His lips curled as he took me in, humour clearly in his gaze, "In the flesh." He had his hands tucked in the pocket of his black coat and he glanced behind him to see my mom shutting the door and hurrying by my side. "Lie down," she whispered softly, worry in her eyes. "Who is he?" Seeing as I made a fuss about calling him over, it was only natural for her to ask. "Uhm," I glanced between them, he looked more eager for the introduction and I gulped, taking my chances. "This is Lucian. He's one of Cyrus's brothers." Her face froze, she lifted her head and turned to loo

    CROSSIt was my turn for my jaw to hit the ground."I could tell she was different. I was nineteen. She was God knows how old," she chuckled quietly, nothing funny about it, just the kind to hold herself together. "But she was very youthful and attended college like everyone else.""Everyone was drawn to her. Everyone loved her, yet no one had access to her. She was very particular about her circle. We messed around for a month or two and... Just holding her hand was magical. She said it was energetic and she would sigh like she had been waiting for it all day... She'd glow too. It was strange. Very strange."I was quiet, my mind wrecked by the information. My being a mate wasn't a mistake after all. If only I had opened up about it sooner, I would've known I wasn't alone."I don't even know how I'm remembering all these," she held her head. "It feels like she locked the memories away after those other beings showed up-""What other beings?""I don't know. They called themselves light

    CROSSI couldn't stop once I opened my mouth.I told her about Cyrus; what he was and how we met. I told her about his siblings and the hell on Earth. About Cyrus missing… and… I told her about me."Maybe that's why you're having those dreams. Something is really after me, but there's a solution."She listened, attentively and quietly. At one point, I wondered if she froze up but she'd blink, gulp and nod to show she was following.By the time I was done, dad had returned and she had to step out to let him know she was handling things. I sat quietly, tapping my feet as I waited, nervous as to what went on in her mind.When the door opened again, my blood pressure rose. She walked in quietly, shut the door and just stood there, blinking and watching me.Her silence scared me more than the thought of her actually freaking out. In fact, I think I'd like for her to yell and scream in my face."I know you don't lie," she finally got a word out, and she swallowed a lump. "And you won't sudd
