CHAPTER SEVEN

DORIAN'S POV

We all stared at the doctor. We all waited for him to say something but he continued to look at us with that terrified look on his face. I could tell that something was not right and it terrified me greatly.

I have never felt fear like this before and that does not even make sense because I don't even care about Rhea. Before today she was just Lyra's slave, before today there was nothing interesting to know about her except the fact that she was abandoned by her parents. She was nobody significant, she was just the girl that Lyra had picked up from the street. A sad lowly creature that the kind Lyra had given s second chance.

I raked my fingers through my hair in frustration.

“Well? Are you going to keep standing there or are you going to actually talk!” I yelled at the doctor without meaning to. I'm usually known as the kind, cheerful, approachable brother and now I don't think I am upholding those characteristics well.

“Uhm…” he stuttered with his head

    CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR: NOT THE ENEMY DORIAN'S POV “Get away from me!” “You are not real! You're just in my mind. I'm going crazy, I'm really really going crazy,” I laughed hysterically to myself. This has to be some sort of sick joke, maybe my mind is playing a trick on me, maybe…yes…it makes sense now this is just a response to trauma that the bullet had caused to my skin Yes! Exactly! This is my body's response to the pain, my mind is just conjuring things, making me see my dead older brother.I laughed, throwing my hands in the air. Funny, very funny mind.“Why are you laughing? Do I look funny?” His brows furrowed, a quizzical look stayed on his face. What the fuck?! He is still here? Mind, is it not time for you to make him disappear? Is it not time me to realize that I have been talking to someone imaginary. An illusion only lasts a few seconds so why is this one still here.I stared at him in shock…or is this real?“How are you Alive? You died, we buried you so how? How is th

There's no way I can restore things to how they were before. Everything was perfect before I came into the picture. Everything would have remained perfect still if only I was not inserted into the picture…if only I did not exist.

First it was my mom and her boyfriend Billy, now it's Lyra and Cassian.Cassian was right, things were perfect before I showed up. Before I showed up, they were madly in love with each other, their hearts burned for each other. Before I showed up, Lyra used to speak

  • THORN BETWEEN THE THREE    A FALLEN HERO

    CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO: A FALLEN HERODORIAN'S POV “Brother,” he said as he stretched his arms forth for a hug. He looked almost the same as he did years ago. He had a smile on his face that I remember only slightly. His face hardly changed, it just got longer, more mature, like a older Max, like if he was actually given the opportunity to grow up into himself, life if he wasn't snatched away from us by death.Oh goodness how is this even possible! How does he looked almost the exact same! How does his voice sound the same except that its child-ish glint has been replaced with a much more mature baritone! Even his expression, his stance, his face, his eyes! How is this even possible!“i have waited for this moment for years. I have imagined how it will feel like to re-unite with my family again.” His mouth cracked into a smile as his voice reverberated through the large abyss that was the room.It carried through the air like sounds in an echo chamber, like wind rustling through the wood

    CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE: LET THE GAME BEGIN!JUSTIN'S POV It felt like I was being marched to my death.Two hefty scary looking guys stood at either of my sides. Their faces were completely stern. Their eyes were as cold as steel in the winter. They walked militantly like soldiers being sent to the war front, like commanders that were sent to retrieve an enemy.“Walk!” One of them yelled and then proceeded to kick me in the shin despite the fact that I was walking as fast as I could. We walked down a hollow hallway to an unknown destination. The hallway looked like something built ages back, sometimes meant for a totally different era. The stony walls looked a bit greenish with algae infestation. There were unsealed cracks in the wall, these cracks had water coming in from them. The lower parts of our legs were completely swallowed in greenish water. The water seeped into my shoes, I kept walking, I ignored the growing nausea within me. I ignored the urge to barf in disgust and fear, the

    CHAPTER THIRTY: CUPID.RHEA'S POV “Why are you sitting there like that?”“Are you… are we not going to try to find a way to make this right?”“Are you not worried? Even a little bit,”Cassian ignored all my questions, he slipped his head phone on for full effect. He rolled his eyes at me. He looked…tired like he ran a marathon race and there was still like a thousand yards remaining. He also looked irritated, and from it seems like that irritation was directed at me and potentially the fact that I am pacing in front of him like a maniac after potentially ruining his relationship with the potential love of his life.“Oh goddess, she hates me! She hates me! Lyra is the only friend I have ever had in my life and she hates me!” I tried to breathe, tried to stop pacing and just stand or seat or stay still. I couldn't, no matter how I tried, pacing, moving felt like the only right thing to do. The sight of Cassian sitting calmly with his finger on his chin stroking it lightly annoyed me m

    CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE: YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS!RHEA'S POV “You have to pick between me and her Rye, I'm not gonna take care of another man's baby. She ain't mine so why don't you take her back to the bastard who knocked you up!” Billy was always like that; brash, boisterous, angry. He always had liquor in his hand, he always swayed from side to side every time he walked. To me Billy was a monster but to mom he was her everything. She loved him, oh she really really loved him. Before Billy walked into our lives, it was just mom and I in our tiny apartment which was more like a shack made out of tin and iron. We lived close to the sea, which was close to the boundaries of the pack. Nobody else except outcast who had no family lived there, it was unsafe but it was our haven.Mom and I shared a room, the whole house was just a room's space, the room space was way smaller than the one I had been in since I've been here with Cassian.It was tiny but it was our heaven.
