"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
{ Farrow } Witches. Goddamn witches. They bombed my entire fucking existence and I wasn’t even aware. For this past week, I've been in jail and then in the hospital, mostly all alone with my own thoughts and my furious wolf. And the healer. It didn't take too long for the weird fog to dis
"You're not the first man to go through this, Farrow,” Noah continues, “But you're the first one to snap out of it, we should be happy.” "What do you mean?" I push the table away from me so I can sit up better, "What happened to the others?" "They either lost their minds… or died," he responds,
Fuck. I fucking hate this. I hate how much sense she’s making. “This isn’t your fault,” Rose continues, voice softer, “Violet used and abused you. She’s the one to blame, not you. I don’t offer excuses often, but I’m giving them to you right now. Everything you did is justified.” I shake my head
I already knew that thing about the glamour spell, Healer Erika told me, but she didn't show me the pictures. I thought it would be just a little thing, I had no idea the difference would be so noticeable. But, holy shit, I really got played. For some reason, this picture makes everything just
"She did. And she wanted to go even further. You could have died like the others, but you didn't. You defeated the monster." "Me? Nah, I was happy with the monster,” I spit out, disgusted with myself, “Other people defeated it for me." "Fine, but you're free of her anyway. So, what now?" "I do
Noah Anderson came into my life nineteen years ago just like this. Passively commanding and assertive, taking control of everything. He has a soft face and a calm voice, but he gets shit done. Always. He's more like a father to me than my own father, who I barely remember. I walk to the bathro
I haven't been away from Sky at all since she decided to forgive me yesterday so I haven't really had the chance to talk to them about the whole... me being a menace in the hospital thing. It looks like I can't avoid it anymore. "Hi, guys," I murmur, taking a step closer. Noah lifts one his expre
{ Farrow } By the time we arrive to the house with everyone’s most important belongings, I’m buzzing with the need to see my mate. And thankfully, one hundred percent free to spend the rest of the day doing nothing except being up Sky's ass. Figuratively, of course, unless... no. I need to keep m
Farrow gives me one last kiss before sending me to my parents' house with everyone while him and Rocky go get everyone’s most important stuff. This new living arrangement is going to be annoying because my family tends to be a lot to handle, but at least it will be a good method of abstinence for
I spend the rest of the day like that, enjoying my family and talking about all the crazy stuff that has happened during our separation, but the next day I have to speak to the officer about the situation with Lilith Lovell. Doing it with my whole family around was a bad idea, though, because now
"Thank you so much," I smile drowsily, "I'm sorry for any other disturbance they caused. Especially him.” "No worries, darling. He'll pay for his disturbances," the nurse murmurs with a laugh and walks out, leaving us alone. Bobbie immediately gets on the gurney with me and leans over to hug me ve
We're going to be okay. That thought makes me let out the biggest, deepest sigh ever and my body relaxes to its entirety for the first time in months. But then I regret that relaxation because my leg starts to feel like it's on a meat grinder and breathing turns into a nightmare. Stupid wit
"Oh…" he lets out, finally getting it, "That's really good. I mean, not the last part, but... you get it. So, can we actually talk about it now? Because I don't want to repress this subject anymore. I want to say everything I still have stuck in here and then allow it to die." "Okay," I nod, makin
"Alex is okay, that's all I know," my brother responded, bringing a sense of peace into me, "He was waiting for you at Moe's. He told Moe about this, then Moe called Dad. I was already on my way, but I couldn't get here, I kept getting lost..." The pain started being too much to bear, so I passed
"No, don't... don't fall for it," Alex begged me, clenching my legs even harder. His little fingers felt like they were piercing my flesh, but I couldn’t even think about that in the moment because Lilith was playing with my tongue, she was slipping a leg in between mine and rubbing her breasts agai
