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

AUDREY I know my shitty morning is about to take a turn for the better when I see Kingston walk through the door with a gift bag. He’s been gone all morning, we barely got a chance to talk, and now here he is, carrying a gift bag. “You’re back,” I squeal cheerfully. “What’s that? Is that for me?”
She can’t stop sobbing. “I’m sorry, Luna Estelle.” “Let it out. You’ll feel better.” I urge, “And when you do, we can work on your confidence towards leadership. You’ve forbidden me from interfering in your marriage, and I won’t, but you’re my little Luna prodigy.” I smile, “And I’ll make sure you
“He gets so mad at me for nothing.” “Because he cares,” I tell her. “And he is not upset with you. If he were, he wouldn’t have brought you here. But he did, because he is concerned about you.
