She will keep you company.” Aeliana snarls, “I don’t want to spend time with t
SERAPHINE Yesterday, Dad went to try to visit Aeliana at the institution, but he wasn’t allowed in. They told him that even if he had been allowed in, he wouldn’t have seen Aeliana because she had already been taken home. She’s been home for three good days, but not once have I heard about her bein
“I’m not driving,” I tell her. “He is,” I point to Rowan, handing him the keys through the window. He immediately hands them to Danielle, lingering outside. “Hey,” Rowan smiles. “Hi?” She frowns. “Hey, Luna Aeliana.” “Riley.” Aeliana immediately corrects her. “I’m nothing like her. I’m not her.”

Peace? I almost laugh. “I don’t think I’ll have any peace with her.” I truthfully say. Aeliana is a force, more so now that she seems to have grown an extra mouthpiece. “The way youre moving? I doubt it too, and you were wrong, this is all your fault.” she snaps, slapping my arm. “Mine?” I try no
I nod, “And that paper still bothers you huh? You know what I might even cling to this marriage just so you can never be his Luna.” I sigh, “Maybe I will find the satisfaction you find in knowing you’re all he cares about.” “I don’t find any—” “Cut the crap,” i tsk. “And the next time you come to
I shake my head. “No wonder,” she nods knowingly. “You’d never allow her near him if that were the case, you’d be on guard.” She pauses, looking down at her phone. “Oh, that’s your Mom.
