"I want a lawyer!” she growls, but I just let Rocky come up to her and cuff her wrist in front of her, "Ouch, too tight." "Too tight?" He asks and sets them even tighter, making the girl gasp, "That's how I treat people that set houses on fire. Shut the fuck up before I tighten them even more."
"Hey, you," someone snaps their fingers right in my face. It’s Rocky, "Sky's back. You should go and apologize or, at the very least, thank her for saving your life." "Of course I want to apologize and thank her. I just didn't know she was back," I lie, "Can I go right now? Is she doing something?
"That first day I arrived to the new training center, my attention was drawn to Violet immediately, but she was looking away. I was late, so I didn't have the chance to meet all of the staff, only the trainers. The whole day, I kept looking back at her and she noticed, but didn't approach me. She le
"Looking back, I think Ozzy got information about Bobbie. They knew she was a strong-minded girl who could maybe get in the way of their plans or something, because Violet was very adamant about me cutting ties with her. She always talked shit about Bobbie and, I mean, that's how you know I was far
"Well, that day you proposed the break, you said you missed out on g..." "Wait! I have to stop you right there. Whatever I said that day was just me trying to come to terms with the fact that I was attracted to someone else. I came up with this idea of feeling like I missed out on some stuff, but
"I would NEVER give up on you, even if you were at your absolute worst, cheating on me and being evil to our daughter. I would care enough about you to snoop through the curtains, find the truth and get you help," I admit and I look up in time to see her eyes fill with tears. She snatches her hand away to wipe them, "Because I know you so much, I would know there's something else going on. It wouldn't be normal for you... just like I hope you thought that it was not normal for me. I hope you realized that was not actually me." "I did," she lets out in a whisper, her hands still covering her eyes and I can tell she's fully crying now, "I knew that wasn't you. Fuck, Farrow... why did this shit happen to us? Everything was so perfect." "Maybe it was a test?" I try, moving closer to her. I want to hug her and bring her to me, but I'm not sure I'm allowed to, just like I wasn't allowed to come inside my own house, just like I'm not allowed to talk to my own daughter, "We never had any
{ Sky } Holy Mother of Everything. When Farrow walks away, I have to give myself a few minutes. To just... cry a little more. Not out of sadness this time, just because I'm overwhelmed. All the details he dropped on me were just as painful as they were enlightening. I hated to hear him talk about having sex with another woman and loving it, but I have to admit it made everything make more sense. It answered all the questions I had. I don't know what I was expecting when Rocky told me Farrow was coming to have a conversation, but it definitely wasn't that. I guess I was prepared for him to still be an asshole and hurt me even more, but that didn't happen. He wasn't an asshole... he was being himself. He was being the man I fell in love with. The man I stayed in love with until that witch appeared. He's back to normal and I'm fucking scared shitless. "Hey, what's going on? What the fuck did he do now?" Rocky roars, coming out of the house like a guard dog, ready to figh
I follow him inside. "Wait, Rocky. I need your help," I grab his arm to stop him, he groans and turns to me, "I need you to back me up with Bobbie when I tell her." "Oh, you want me to be on your side? Well, I'm not. I don't want Farrow here either and I don't think Bob should be uncomfortable
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
