Adaline Point of View"You take me higheeeeeeeer, higher than I've ever beeeen." I scream, lettting Rihanna's Higher flow through me beautifully. The Irony of the song is who ever takes me higher, feel so high in love, all I can think is it's a long way to fall, nevertheless, I sing."Truth or dare?" Zoe asks, and I grin, because, you see, we are drunk, I on dark rum, and she on, vodks, we are stupidly drunk, but we have no worries, we can be stupidly drunk as we eat pizza."Truth!" I yell, because it seems yelling is all I can do now"Mention the one time you were undoubtedly happy." I take another bite of pizza, and I remember, I was sixteen, and in a river, swiming, with he-who-must-not-be-named and Elena we splashed water all over our selves, Elena swam away and he kissed me, I felt it to my toes, as I wrap my legs around him, I felt him pushing against me, and I wanted to sink into him, we kissed and kissed till our mouth went numb."Right now." I lie, and she nods, smiling."My
Adaline Point of View"Oh my God, Aurora, you'll be the death of me." She says, moving closer to me, and I see the tears in her eyes."I'm fine. It was, apparantly, an ulcer attack." I say smiling"What?" She says, her expression mirroring mine."That's what I said too." I snort, smiling, but it fals off when I see Cyp leaning on the door, staring at me with a look I can't decipher."Hi, I am Ashley, and this is my husband, Daniel." Ash says.Zoe looks at her, for a while, before smiling, and hugging her. "Thank you for taking care for her. I am Zoe, and the brooding man is Cyp.""Come on, let's get her prescribtion." Daniel says to them, and they smile, at me before walking out, leaving me alone with Cyp."Addie." He says, and I flinch, not because I don't like him right now, but because he called me that, no one calls me that."Aurora." He says, walking close to me, sits on the bed, then draws me close to him in a hug."My baby girl." He says, kissing my cheeks, and I break into a g
Alexandru Point of View"They say all good boys go to heaven, but bad boys bring heaven to you." Alina sings as I drive the car, and I try not to groan."Come on, Leens, change the song, please." I say."It's automatic, just what they do." She sings laughing, as she put her leg on the dash"Legs off the dash." I say, and Mom laughs in the back seat.We are on our way to Midcity, on our way home, and I am starving, but there's somthing I haven't been able to shake off since last night."I love Camille's place, she and Peter really made it s beautiful, it doesn't even feel empty like it should be." Alina says, and my hands tightens on the steering wheel."I should spend more nights there." She says, and Mom laughs. They spent the night at Camille's place because I was too tired to drive, and had to stay at the Alpha's. I don't know why they won't stay at my place, but according to Mom, it is too big."How was the meeting, Alexandru?" Mom asks"You were there overnight, what's happening?

I snarl, holding her throat in my hands"I dont - " She starts to say, but my grip tight
Adaline Point of View"Accident?" He says, and I bite my lips, I shouldn't have told him. I am about to reply when I hear some scruffling on his end."Dad? Is something going on there, I heard some noise." I say, and he's silent for a while."That would be, darling." I hear Mom say, and I smile."What happened?" She asks, and I sign"I fainted in class when teaching, was taken to the hospital and the Doctor said it was an ulcer attack." "Ulcer attack? Sounds unlikely." Dad says"That's what I thought, but I have been eating less though, been caught up in work and trying to get through the day.""Oh my love, I am sorry we don't speak as much, we have also been busy with everything. Are you better now, do you need us to come there, or will you come home?" Mom says"No, you don't need to here, and I am not coming to New Orleans, I just need to rest, I'm sure the university will give me a week or so to rest and get myself together." I say, biting my nails, as I stare round my room."Oh,
Adaine Point of ViewI stare at the woman before me, I expected an older woman, full of grey hairs, I didn't expect to see a woman who looks like we are the same age, she's probably younger than I am."Hello." She says, and I notice her accent, it's french, so she's perfect."I am Celia, and I'll be your friend throughout this session." She says, and I stare at her, I am a Psychology Professor, and here I am, needing therapy.It's been few days since Cyp's and I fight at the park, well, since I yelled at him, and he just looked. He's been extra careful with me, so have Zoe, like they are afraid I'll break, only Ashley and her husband treats me well, which is why I am going to her place after this."My name is Aurora." I say, glancing back at her, I let my eyes slide down her body, she's wearing a black dress, and matching heels, her black hair is packed into a classy bun, she looks comfortable, expensive, while, here I am, wearing a jumpsuit, and sandals, I really am going insane."Wh
Adaline Point of View"Blu?" I say, then a laugh burbles out of meShe grins shamelessly, like a woman who has no care in the world "I swear my hair is just coincedental."I laugh harder at her words "Blu, your hair is not coincedental, you had your name before your hair."She smiles at me, then take another bite of her burger, and I stare at her, she has this young glow around her, and I feel old."How old are you, Blu?" I ask, not caring if it's appropiate or not."I am twenty seven." She says, and my eyes widen in shock"No way." I gasp, then look at her again"Yes, I am." She laughs at my expression"You look young, I though maybe something along the lines of twenty five or younger, definitely not twenty seven." I sayShe shrugs with a smile "Can I guess your age?"I nod, humouring her "Try.""Twenty eight."I smile, then nod "I am twenty eight.''We stay in a comfortable silence as she takes the last bites of her burger, and I, the last scoop of my Icecream."You seem like a ver
Alexandru Point of ViewI punch over and over again, watching the bag wing back and forth as it takes the brunt of my anger. I don't stop, I keep hitting the bag, hoping it can take away the conflicted feeling I feel.I can't sleep, neither can I eat, all I have done for the past week is replay the conversation, her words, the shakyness and terror beneath it, I want to go to her, help her, I would need to convince her, but I doubt she'll need much convincing, she needs to be saved, I want to save her, but I don't know how to do that from here.I can feel her, and she's so fucking sad, so broken, yet so stubborn because I don't know why she won't just come home. "Fuck!" I yell, hit the bag, and it flies off."Knew I'd find you here." I hear as Rick and Zach walks in, but I don't face them, because I feel every inch of the beast I am.I have known them for half my life, we all grew up together, Elena, Alina, Catalina, Faye and Adaline. They were older, but there was this unity, the fee
