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

“Come on, just one little bite,” she urges, her tone lower when she says her pathetic nickname for me. “Squeak.” That overstimulates me, it triggers me. I slap the bowl out of her hand and it drops with a shattering sound. “I said no, what is wrong with you?” A few gasps erupt from behind the coun
AELIANA I didn't sleep much last night. Despite being worn out from walking all afternoon, I didn’t feel comfortable enough to sleep. I kept missing the life I left behind, and by the time I finally got sleepy, it was sometime past midnight. My bedroom is frighteningly huge and plain. It’s not bad
Eight hours later, I stand by the staircase, listening to Danielle and Rowan try to talk me into attending the very unnecessary, huge wedding party that Mrs Hartley and my Mom planned against both mine and Aeliana’s interests. I was in no mood to party earlier, and I’m in no mood to do so tonight.
“You’ll love the packhouse, Aeliana.” Audrey chimes in.
