LOGINI 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
“Stop talking about him,” he says, his tone threatening. “Why?” I push. “He seems to be haunting you more than he is me.” I expect him to deny it, but he vigorously nods, “He is.” He admits, “He hurt you, that’s not something I can move on from overnight.” “Kingston, it’s not overnight.” I sigh,
“I don’t want to hurt you.” “You won’t,” I shake my head. “You’re not him, King. If anything, the only way you’re hurting me is by not touching me.” I say, taking his hands and guiding them higher under my oversized t-shirt, letting him feel how relaxed I am under his touch. “I love your hands, my
AELIANA Working at VU is such a delight, but it’s harder than my job in Clinshore was. I was just a T.A back then, but this time? I don’t even feel like a substitute. The professor I'm supposed to be subbing for has only shown up once at the office, and she simply packed her belongings from our off
“Well, that’s time.” Doctor Eleanor says, staring at the wall behind us. “Aeliana, how do you feel about Mr Hartley coming in again?” “He doesn’t need to,” I shift. “I think we can work things out on our own, but you’ve been of great help, thank you.” “Yes, thank you, Doctor.” My father says. “Our
