"Thank you so much, my little healer boy," I said to Alex, hugging him and scenting the back of his ear until he was giggling, "Thank you, thank you, you're the best nephew." "You're the best auntie I've ever had, the nicest one," he responded, making my heart explode. I kissed his chubby cheek a
Fucking witch. She was so evil and… short. And why hadn’t she tried something like that with Rocky? Probably because of her shortness. "No," I responded with sudden bravado, lifting my chin and getting ready for anything. The girl looked actually surprised by me saying no. Almost offended, actuall
"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
"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
"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
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
"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
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
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
