"Move aside, he's ready for me now," the older woman says and pushes Violet's thin body away hard as hell, making her fall to the ground with a thud. If this wasn’t so fucking weird, I would’ve laughed. But I can’t even find it amusing because I have to watch in horror as the old woman sheds her
When she says that, I realize I need to fucking move. Move my ass right the fuck now and get as far away from this house as I can before this old bitch comes out and finds me. I walk backwards and then run to my car careful not to make too much noise. I throw the envelope with the divorce papers
"What did you do?" Hope asks me, more worried than murderous now. "Nothing, I ran away! It was scary." "We need to stop running away so much," Rocky murmurs and starts pacing around with his hands on his hips, "What do we think? Violet bewitched Farrow? What about their fated bond then?" "May
"Fine, but keep it hidden," I shake my head and continue walking to Cassie’s door, then I knock. It takes a couple minutes, but the door opens, "Hello again, Cassie… Rocco told us about what you said to him earlier, can we come in? All I need is a bit more information.” "It's just you two?" she as
"I need a bathroom," I say, covering my mouth because I feel like I’m about to throw up. Cassie jumps up and leads me to a bathroom. As soon as I walk inside, I get on my knees in front of the toilet and I heave painfully. I know it’s mostly stomach acid because it burns my throat. It hurts. My s
"But is he under the glamour spell? Does he see you as more attractive than you are?" Hope demands with narrowed eyes. Cassie shakes her head very vigorously. "No. I want out of the coven," she blurts out, eyes very open and honesty in her scent, "I haven't been to the coven house in a while and I
"If the council can find another real witch, then I guess I'm on your side," Cassie murmurs, not sounding too sure but knowing that's the best option she has, "But I really need protection, I’m not exaggerating. Violet saw me with you guys, if something starts to go down, they'll know it was me and
The breakfast next morning is goddamn tense as hell. Bobbie is the only one who is acting normal and eating like she's starving, but the rest of us are just sitting there, all of us lost in our own thoughts. I’m exhausted and worried, so I’m just looking at my empty plate. I know I should get some
It takes me two seconds to move, but I get up and walk to him. He looks so handsome right now, wearing a crisp white button shirt with black dress pants and his hair styled the way I told him I liked it. And the way he's carrying those roses... yeah, I'd like a picture too. Good luck my mom is being
"Well, you fucked up by giving it to me so early," I laugh, "Even if we're together, I'll hide it for a while. I just don't want people all in our business asking why I let a boy mark me without a ring on my finger like a dirty whore." "Oh, shut up," he says, rolling his eyes and chuckling, "As if
I blink, still unable to believe this is even happening. “That means putting a pause on you being ‘single’,” he continues after a few seconds, “I know I haven’t earned any rights to you, what I’m asking for is the fair chance to get those rights. And if possible, clear instructions from time to ti
I sigh as I look at him, still nervous. "So I ruined your control when I figured out I was in love with you," I say. Henry takes a deep breath and nods, "But we're not kids anymore, Henry. So why did you reject me? I just don't... I don't think you 'liking me' is enough. What I feel for you goes b
I am listening. I mean, I'm still too confused to do anything other than listen. Henry opens his mouth but doesn't get a chance to say anything because my friends are trying to come back inside. "I said fuck off," he repeats, reaching to lock the door, "Go to your stupid party or whatever, then yo
"I noticed… hell, I asked for it," I admit, sighing and going to my closet to grab something. They follow me, demanding to know, "I asked him to pretend the last month didn't happen. I realized I liked my life more before, with the way we were. I just have to... slowly fall in love with another man.
Only ten minutes later, Bobbie comes into the kitchen and she starts helping me. We don't say anything about the bathroom situation. "Mags and Tams are sleeping over tomorrow," she lets me know as I'm driving to uni. I try to hide my annoyance, unsuccessfully, "They despise you too, now more than
Now I know how is like to touch her, to kiss her and fuck her for real, not as a dumb kid. Now my wolf is involved. Now I know what I'm missing and I want it back. ➿➿➿➿ For two days, we go back one month ago before the clusterfuck of feelings. We go to school, we go to work, we hang out with
"You haven't been doing things right, Henry. And I'm disappointed in you. If you love her... show her. Say it. It won't make you less of a man or whatever you think. She needs to hear it and see it, do you get that? It's not enough to just feel it, speak up." Damn. I gulp and nod. "Exactly what
