LOGINPetra 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
AELIANA “Luna Aeliana,” Evelyn gasps, locking the door when she enters my cell. “Oh, my God. Why did you run away?” I pause. Sometimes I wonder how she got this job, she seems to lack common sense. She has seen this place, and she might be used to it, but I am not. She keeps staring at me from th

“She’ll be back.” “Yeah, but she’s still far.” she sighs, “I miss her so much, she would have cheered me up.” “You should call her.” I offer, I myself can't spend time with her and it must be hard to be separated from her friend during this difficult time. Her bully just returned and she happens t
KINGSTON Aeliana is a pain in the ass. I don’t understand why she lashed out at Audrey when she was merely trying to help. She didn't want or give any opinions when asked, her Mom and mine were planning our wedding like an afternoon tea party, and she just sat there. Audrey’s ideas were fresh and
Just when I think I’ve left the crap behind, I find an unexpected guest at the table. The table is more lively, much more chatty than when I was there. “Are you okay darling?” Luna Estelle asks, “I was starting to worry.” I nod, staring at Audrey. “Hi Aeliana,” she waves. “I hope you don't mind th
“How sweet,” Luna Estelle swoons. King scoffs, lightly shaking his head in disbelief. He knows I'm bluffing. All I ever miss about this place is nothing but memories. Mom and Luna Estelle immediately fall into conversation and when our father’s return to the table, we order our lunch. I don't get
