LOGINI grew up in the pack, and I’ve never stepped out of our town, so seeing the city for the first time feels refreshing and intimidating in equal measure. The city is not a far cry from the town. They’re actually pretty similar, like the pack is a mini version of the city, only louder, busier, and mor
PART FOUR“Why do you always wear black?”“Isn’t black too much of a stretch?” Rome smirks as he answers my question with one of his. We’re lying down on my bed, facing each other. He’s in a casual crewneck long-sleeve black t-shirt, and my fingers trace his pecs through the shirt as we talk about n
Wouldn’t it have been better if I had told her that he spoke to me and said he would come back in two years?Wouldn’t it have been better if I had told her that the guys found out about her sleepwalking? That I had no way to control it, but it happened?Wouldn’t it have spared her the heartbreak, th
Remy and I reappear out of the shadows in the foyer of a large house, not a second after we left King’s place.I know I should be thinking about the fact that I just umbraported, something I shouldn’t be able to do, something I don’t think even Remy can do, or maybe she can.I know I should go looki
What if I did sneak out?“This is so messed up, you know?” My dad sighs, and for a moment, I feel bad. What right do I have to be mad at him for telling them? It’s not like I outright came out and told him not to tell anyone. I just thought we had an unspoken agreement not to, and he knew I wasn’t c

“No, listen, I didn’t…I wasn’t…I” I roll my eyes at him, he doesn’t even know what to say to excuse what he did. And Rome or not, it still hurts that he did that to me after everything, I trusted him, I could have easily fooled myself and said I was in love with him. I wipe stray tears from my eyes
“Regardless of that,I do respect you all. You, as her father, you, as her friend, and you, as a mother figure. I won’t hurt you unless I have to. You were there for her in ways I couldn’t be, because I couldn’t be around her.”He couldn’t be around? Does that mean he won’t be around even now?I don’
“Innocent? You’re nothing innocent, you’re a destructive tool and I refuse to allow you to destroy my pack like you destroyed the Brown family.” He spits. I laugh.“I destroyed the Brown family, are you sure about that?” I move closer towards him. “When you came to our home and asked my father to ki
“Daddy, can I eat now?” I ask, but he doesn’t look at me or talk to me, he just passes by me and goes to the kitchen. When he comes back, he’s holding a napkin and I think he’s going to ask what I want to eat, so I turn to him happily, but he wraps the napkin around my face and holds it down. I can’
