All Chapters of Love Amongst The Shadows: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Zerena's P.O.V.'I think we've reached a sort of peace. Come back?' Percy linked me. 'He's cooking and I see why you've put him in charge of making dinner in the future. It smells fu.cking amazing.'I laughed still laying on the shadow realm floor, feeling utterly exhausted from Shade's lesson. Controlling the dark is definitely the hardest thing I have tried to do. It's entirely different from controlling shadows, yet eerily similar. It confused me and drained me all at once. 'Take a break. We'll continue later.' Shade told me. I emerged from Percy's shadow, taking a seat beside him, watching Kiran cook. He hadn't noticed I was here, and I motioned for Percy to keep quiet. "I still don't know if I like you that much, Percy, but I'm willing to try. I see how much this has tormented you, and that fact alone makes me feel better about it. Zerena may have forgiven you quickly, but I won't, for her sake." Kiran spoke with his back turned. "For my sake?" I asked him, with a brow raised.

"And I thought I was fu.cked up." May's Irish accent surprised the hell out of me as she suddenly whispered to me, pointing in front of us to Nick, who had now taken the lead following Axel."You are." I laughed, because this girl was pure chaos in a small tan body. Nick turned to look at us, allowing me a better look at his face. He had dark tan skin from working on the farm all his life. He had jet black hair, like most people here, buzzed short all around and left long on top. He kept it styled back with pomade, because he doesn't like his hair blocking his field of vision. He had dark brown eyes and they stared at me with curiosity. I stuck my tongue out at him mockingly and he scowled. "You sure you want to poke that beast?" May asked, amused. "From what you know about me now, what do you think?" I asked her, curious to see how much is seen and felt about me from this bond. "I think you want to poke that beast about 100 times more." She laughed, and she wasn't wrong. Al foll

Kiran's P.O.V.I watched as Jason grabbed our waitress' wrist, pulling her back and having her fall on his lap. He looked down at her with a smirk and she blushed timidly. I kind of felt bad for the girl, being put through this for a dare. She went to get up, but Jason cupped her face with his hand, causing her to freeze. She didn't seem upset about it. Jason is a very handsome guy and it's to his advantage right now. The waitress just kept her eyes locked on Jason's as he rubbed his thumb over her cheek, sweetly. He smiled at her again and just like that a minute had passed with her on his lap. He leaned forward and whispered into her ear. "Sorry, darling, please forgive me." She blushed, nodding her head, embarrassed a bit by what just happened. She got off his lap so fast you would think Jason's crotch was on fire under her. "Easy." He said again with a smug smirk. "My turn. Who's next?" Jason looked around the table, challenging us. I was about to rise to the challenge when P

We didn't get much sleep last night with the insatiable hunger we had for one another. We had done it two more times before I was too tired to continue. Kiran had rubbed my sore muscles after, causing me to drift off into the deepest sleep of my life. "Good morning, beautiful." His raspy voice aroused me from my slumber. "Mmm, 5 more hours." I complained, causing Kiran to chuckle. "People tend to say 5 more minutes not hours." He teased. "I'm not people.""I am sorry I kept you up so late." He kissed my bare shoulder from behind me, sending goosebumps down my back. "I'm not. Last night was amazing." I finally opened my eyes, turning to look at his handsome face. Freaking underwear model looking mother fu.cker. "Good, because I can't seem to get enough of you." He nuzzled his head into my neck, pulling me closer. A knock on the door interrupted our tender moment and we both sighed. Kiran got up, pulling some sweatpants over his naked body. I made sure to pull the covers up highe

"Which does she do better, offense or defense?" Ed directed his question towards Al. "She does offense well." I answered him. "She does both pretty well, but yeah, she's better at offense." Al confirmed. "Alright, Zerena. You'll be with Ed, Josiah, and I on the offensive team. Zach, Isiah, and Al are our defensive group. We'll show you how we fight and you just try to keep up." Curtis told me, and I swear if I didn't just want to d*ck punch him right then. In Curtis' mind the defensive group is like a shield. He has them in a line before us ready to throw their shadows up in defense, while we stand behind them. When it's time to attack the defensive group slips behind momentarily while the other group hits the opponent hard. I don't particularly like this plan. I feel everyone should be better rounded and able to fight back if needed. It's unusual for me to take orders on how I should fight. I hadn't realized how much I don't like no
