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

“Why not give it to Penelope?” she scoffs.“With her fashion sense? Please, she wouldn’t be caught dead wearing it, either.” We laugh at that, because she’s right. I sit beside her on the bed and look at her. She’s so beautiful, and so pure, and…there’s a lot more going on than I’d like to admit.“H
“I just don’t want to be weak anymore.”“And you won’t be. We’ll make sure of that. I’ll train you and teach you and all that, but I can’t and won’t do it if you’re going to be ruled by your emotions. I’m not saying you should turn into a robot and shut off your emotions, I’m just saying you shouldn
It's not something that happened after I'd grown up, like one time my dad hit me and apologized, and my mom hit me accidentally and apologized...no, it didn't happen like that. I was born into it. It's all I ever knew. Dad hits mom and hits me, mom takes hits from dad and gives me my share of it. I
I am pissed.I am really pissed, but at the same time, I am really hurt.And I don’t think it’s just because he said those things to me, I think it’s because I know he’s right.
