Part 1 – Chapter 33
Dear Dante, Thank you for the advice. I must say, however, it was shitty. “You are the storm. What are your thunder and lightning telling you?” Was that really supposed to be helpful? Because it wasn’t. Please forgive the rudeness, but my life is falling apart. Correction, it already fell apart. I’m just wandering around in all the broken pieces, kicking up dust and cutting my feet on shards of glass. And by the way, what was that whole thing about the love that turned the stars and the…-

Ch7. Her Beautiful Eyes
Creed Amora stood still, holding the parchment in mid-air. Her lips fell open, not understanding that I would not indulge in her questions. I couldn't, not with her mate. Adam had taken everything from me; did she not know that the dynamic between us had really changed? Sure, we were close. The best of friends, brother, and sister even. The day Adam ripped my throat, clawed my face, disfigured me entirely was the day I no longer trusted him. Once he and Amora became of age, I had not only lost my…-

Ch16. Stay
Odessa I stood by the fire, still wrapped in the furs. There was no scuffle coming from the outside, which made me worry more, until I heard grunting and a loud slap. My eyes widened when Creed strode in with his mighty gate and his beefy arms, holding up a large animal. It was plump, hairy, and had tusks coming out of its mouth. The snout gave it away. A boar or wild pig thingy. Finally, eating something that wasn't just red meat, I now had something else, pork! I clapped my hands as he threw the…-

Part 1 – Chapter 6
I take a while to pull myself together, splash water from the bathroom faucet on my face, and dry my eyes. Then I put a stamp on an envelope, slide the letter inside and seal it, and take it out to the mailbox. When I return to the kitchen, Aidan is nowhere in sight. I go into the laundry room and finish folding the towels, go back to the kitchen and empty the plastic buckets into the sink, replace them on the floor under the drips, then stare into the fridge in search of something I know I won’t eat…-

Part 1 – Chapter 22
“Now listen carefully,” says Fiona, turning businesslike again. “I need to tell you something important.” “What is it?” “No matter what happens, don’t tell the ghost it’s dead. They have no idea they’re no longer living.” I’m convinced we’re both in a padded cell somewhere having this conversation. That’s really the only reasonable explanation. When I sit there staring at her in disbelief, she continues. “Ghosts are simply souls with a story to tell.…-

Part 1 – Chapter 9
Dear Kayla, Thank you for writing me back. As for all the questions you asked, none of them matter. I’m sorry if that sounds rude, but it’s the truth. I’ll always tell you the truth. I can’t do otherwise. Here’s a verse you might appreciate: But already my desire and my will were being turned like a wheel, all at one speed, by the Love that moves the sun and the other stars. What do you…-

Part 1 – Chapter 34
Fiona informs me that the full moon is tomorrow night, so we can conduct the séance right away. She tells me I’m lucky we can get it done so quickly. I don’t feel lucky. I feel cursed. I don’t say that aloud, however, because I don’t want to tempt fate into proving it. I spend the rest of that day and the next in a state of high anxiety, every so often glancing at my left hand. I’m surprised each time to find my wedding band still there on my ring finger. Aidan was correct when he…-

Ch8. The Truth
Odessa As if I would break, Prince Charming put me back on the fluffy bed of furry blankets. The feeling of being eaten was long gone once he put the blanket over my legs. He was relatively gentle for a big guy, covered in scars, tattoos, worked hands, and meaty muscles. His oversized tunic shirt was thin yet thick enough for me to feel well covered. More so than anything, I wore with the vampires. Overall, I was very comfortable in his presence. "Um, Prince Charming?" He shook his head; he tried…-

Ch17. His Dragon
Creed I woke up early. My dragon was restless for the plans I had with Odessa today. I would travel tomorrow and who knows what Adam had in store for me or how long I would be gone? Was it just a meeting to talk about my downfalls of the tribe? How much of a failure I was to protect our family? It has happened before, these little talks, and it would not be the last. My dragon let smoke blow through my nostrils, waving it away the white smoke, I prepared the last bit of my surprise. Odessa gave me…-

Part 1 – Chapter 7
At eight o’clock sharp the next morning, Mr. Personality knocks on my door. Pounds on it, actually, with brutal force. As if he’s the leader of a SWAT team, and he’s been tasked with taking down a group of crazed hostage-takers to save a hundred people’s lives. I open the door and stare at him. “Good morning, Mr. Leighrite. What’s the emergency?” Frowning, he looks me up and down. Because the house is freezing, I’m wearing a bulky sweater with a down vest over it along with…-
