All Chapters of Middle Land: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

  Fiona's hands hit her brothers door making the walls shake. "Why are you being so difficult?!"    "Sod off!" Oisin obviously didn't want us to be there anymore.     Fiona turned to me and Liam fuming in frustration and anger. Her eyes went dark which means she had to feed.    "So if I can't open this door here, should I go to the human rooms tonight?" Please say no.    "No, stay another night in our bed. Did you hear that you motherfuckingtwat!?!" Fiona started to kick the door. "We get to hold her. We get to put our hands on her. We can even fuck her."     Wait...what?     "What the hell Fiona?" She gave me a look that I knew all too well. She was goading him. It reminded me of her talking to Liam when she was Liv and he was Ian. That felt like a whole lifetime ago now.    "Maybe Rian will finally call

Oisin's POVWhat the fuck happened?! She went from 0-100 back to 0 in a few minutes. I can see the upsetting memories she has of me in her minds eye and negative hear the nagging little negative thoughts she has floating around her head. She thinks I'm taking her for an emotional roller coaster ride?! Damn faeries always being so dramatic. If they aren't living on rainbows and sunshine it's gloomy and dark. I want to tell her everything. Why she is feeling like she's falling down a dark well. Why I'm to bloody scared to admit I might have a second mate...or maybe she is my only mate and those happy years of my life were a sham.But her non-stop inner monologue continues down the depressing rabbit hole to a very scary place. Suicide.I may not have a soul but I was raised to believ

Oisin's POV After a couple of cold showers, I finally have calmed down. When I step out in my towel, she's already asleep. Rolled herself up in the blanket like a burrito. I gently moved her to the side of the bed and place her head on a pillow. She moves a lot in her sleep, tossing and turning. I wonder if she's having nightmares; I could easily find out but I can't continue to invade her privacy. Texting Fiona, I want her to know what's going on, check in on my little sister, and make sure she keeps Rian busy tomorrow. Her reply: AHHH IM SO HAPPY!!! WILL DO!!! you both deserve happiness. Goodnight xoxo Sometimes I wonder if I deserve happiness. People work hard and live shitty lives, never getting the upper hand, aren't they just as worthy of happiness? Whereas people like her stepfather and mother still breathe. For now. I know this: my soulmate is worthy

A hidden doorway. It could just be a closet, but by the rather unique look of the door, my best guess is that it holds secrets that Oisin would rather keep concealed.I should trust him. Maybe just ask him and he'll spill the tea on it. But if I let him know that I know, I may never get another chance at seeing where this leads.The metal shelves are stacked with bath salts, extra shampoos and conditioners, toilet paper, but mostly towels, which have been depleted. I quickly move everything off the shelving so I can move it out far enough for me to sneak by. I just need enough room to slip through the door.Seems like Oisin uses this door often because the selves are on wheels. I didn't notice them until it was time to pull the shelving from the wall. This makes my decision easier: I have to open the door now.The tiny brass rose doorknob turns easily in my hand. The only sound is the lock mov

Oisin's POV Yesterday I could barely breath but Fiona and I talked for hours. I told her the truth about Maggie, how I fell for her and thought she was my other half. Fiona knew the story for the most part: she knew that Maggie was beautiful, powerful, and cheated on me with Rian after I declined the title of King. He swears she was his soulmate and I swore she was mine.  Fiona has been by my side the entire time and not once asked for Liam since I described the pull the Maggie and how it differs to the pull to Evelyn. I know she is now doubting her mate and it's my fault, but Fiona deserves her true Leanan Sidhe*.  Rian's witch is an old crone. She might have some link to the druids but she's a traditionally trained witch. No psychic abilities, just a lot of herbs, spells, and sage.  The witch comes out of the bathroom, sage, eucalyptus, and dried flowers
