Mag-log inI see my knees push up, and he positions himself between my legs again. The realisation of what is about to happen makes terror explode in my veins. I don’t know where I get it from, but feeling returns in my body. My leg jolts with a force, and I dive my knee into his chest. He staggers enough for
⚠️Trigger warning: SA. Feel free to skip this chapter and start with the next one. AELIANA Petra got to me. I can’t get her out of my head. Something about her being right has my heart pounding. By the time we got back to my room, I was on the verge of tears. I couldn’t go another day without kn
Petra doesn’t flinch, she simply blinks and smiles again. “Sure you are, there’s a baby right….” She points at my stomach over the table. “There.” “No, I shake my head, pulling my tank top down some more. My idiot of a mate packed one of my old ones, it's a super-tight fit. “Is it a secret?” She f
“Is that why you came back?” The girl asks. “Because you and your mate are not on good terms?” I simply stare at her. She seems pretty invested in my life, and for a moment, I start to think she might have been planted by someone out or in here to find out about my plans of potential escape. It’s
AELIANA Day three, round two. I hate this place. Every single day, my hatred for this place grows, and these last three days since I came back have really gotten to me. I have more eyes on me than I did before, which has made it very hard for me to speak to someone. Someone whom Mama Bird instruc
Me? He had me, and he drove me straight to the lion's den. He can’t be serious right now. My eyes quickly shift back to Evelyn. “Do I go to confinement if I punch him?” “Yes.” She almost whispers. “What are you doing here?” I ask, watching him to ensure he keeps his distance. “I came to see ho
“I’m leaving,” I choke out. “No, please don’t go.” He chokes out, reaching for me, but this time I don’t pull away fast enough. “I can’t live without you.” He says, a lone tear rolling down his cheek. “Can’t live without me?” I echo, my tone mocking because this is what he turned my life into, a f
“Well, at the hospital when—” “Not now, Danielle.” Rowan snaps. “Oh my God,” I gasp. “You two...” I motion between them. “Noah, no.” Rowan shakes his head, but it’s too late, I’ve already caught on. “Is this what this was?” I gasp, choking on the lump in my throat. “You were trying to get me pre
I knock on Rowan’s door, and he opens almost immediately, dressed in nothing but a towel, his hair still damp from the shower. It distracts me for a split second, but then I go back to remembering why I’m here. “Rowan.” His face immediately lights up, “Hey, Hero, what’s up?” “I...I just took a—”
NOAH I have felt every bit guilty since Aeliana left. Had I not been on my phone, they wouldn't have had any evidence at all. I wasn’t even able to see her as she left. I was out running errands. I tried to go and see her twice. The first time, Rowan dragged me back into the house, and the second t
