LOGINWithout so much as an arguing word, the men moved. Indeed, Arthur had inherited my ability to compel. I was quick to spot Cecilia standing in the center of the large, main room. She looked anxious and eager to see her son. When she spotted Arthur, her eyes lit up with pure excitement. “I knew
[Ella’s POV] I felt like I was floating on a cloud. At first, it seemed like I was being torn to pieces. The pain that resonated within me—it was like a fire had been set to burn beneath my skin. Every nerve was spiraling and coiling beyond control. I almost begged them both to stop. But then,
But that chance was almost taken from me tonight. Had we not gone to see him, the man would have been dead. I can’t let Ella’s mother face the same fate. It needs to stop. All of it. “Alright,” I said firmly. I reached down to grasp Ella’s hand. “I know I kept saying that we needed to wait unti
The car ride back to campus was kept in complete silence. What was there to say? Aaron had been brutally attacked by his own wife and was basically left there to bleed out...That, in itself, was proof that Cecilia had truly lost her mind. What’s even scarier was that apparently, she’s lost contr

I wish I felt better after Liam and I spoke. It was the last day at the Golden Fawn Hotel and I didn’t want this trip to end on a bad note. But it seemed that no matter how I tried to either distract myself or let it go, I couldn’t shake the thought of Olivia’s lie being even remotely true.The whol
I was starting to regret my choice of prying for further information. Mainly because I really had no idea what to do with it. It was scary how well she spoke about Liam and Noah as though she truly knew them.“Well, you certainly described Noah to a T. Have the two of you dated in the past?”Her bro
Of course, there wouldn’t be anything pertaining to an old relationship, Ella.
