The next day, I stood outside James’ door. I had decided not to wait any longer and was going to end things with him today. Even though I knew it was the right thing to do, it definitely didn’t make it any easier.

I knocked, and within seconds, the door opened. James greeted me with the same big smile as always.

“What’s up, Addy?” he said, closing the door behind him. For a moment, I felt bad again. James was always so positive and amazing. How could I do this to someone like him?

He leaned in to kiss me, but I turned my head just in time, letting his lips land on my cheek instead.

“Hey,” I greeted.

“Hey?” He pulled back, furrowing his brow for a split second, but just as quickly, he brushed it off like it was nothing.

He simply slung his arm over my shoulder as usual, and we began walking.

“Take me to the woods,” I instructed.

“Whatever you want,” James shrugged, not questioning my words whatsoever.

If I was going to end things with him, I at least wanted to do it the proper

  • The Lycan Prince’s Puppy   Chapter 324

    VioletThe walls were painted lavender, covered in hand-drawn flowers and stars I had made with Mom and Dad’s help, and paper butterflies hung from the ceiling. I told Dad I wanted them, and he had hung them not even twenty-four hours later because that was Greg.There were far too many toys, but the highlight was the dollhouse in the corner. The one Dad had also built by hand. He had even decorated it down to the ribbons, the tiny wooden furniture, and even my name, which was carved into the roof.It was all memories I had tried so hard to forget. Not me, but all of us. That’s why my chest ached as I took it all in.“You’re doing great,” Kylan whispered, his hand pressing gently against my back. I took a shaky breath and turned toward him. Anything to avoid facing these memories, no matter how good it felt to be here.“I don’t know how much longer I can do this,” I whispered back. “I’m sorry.”“Don’t be,” Kylan reassured with a smile. “I couldn’t have done what you’re doing right now

    VioletKylan couldn’t laugh this time, but neither could I. I had almost forgotten that Dylan also used to be a real pain in the ass.Dad cleared his throat, trying to change the subject, but Kylan decided to play along. “Really?” he said. “What makes you say that?”Little Dylan shrugged. “I just told you. It’s that look in your eyes.”Before Kylan could respond, the younger girl had already slammed her tiny hands on the table, standing on her toes to speak up. “No, he doesn’t look Lyperian!” she defended. “Uncle Ewan always says the Lyperians are ugly, remember?”“Yes, from the inside—stupid.”“You are stupid, Dork Face!”Dylan and I glanced at each other, both biting back a laugh.Dork Face?Could I really not have come up with something better?“Kids!” Dad scolded, ruffling our hair with a sigh. “Violet, sit down.” He then looked at Kylan. “Sorry about that.”“It’s fine,” Kylan replied calmly, though I could tell he was holding himself back. If those two had known each other as chi

    VioletI could hear Dad’s soft mumbling as he made tea in the kitchen, and my younger self begging to help. I didn’t need to look to know what was happening next door. Little me was probably standing on her tiptoes, reaching for the counter, handing him the sugar tin with both hands, thinking she was really contributing.There was nothing I wanted more than to run over and take a closer look, but as we sat around the round table, waiting for our tea, my legs just wouldn’t move.It felt strange because this was my house, yet somehow it wasn’t, and I didn’t want to intrude.Everything looked exactly as I remembered it. The walls were lined with family pictures and little hand-painted frames I forced Mom and Dad to put up. The Bloodrose scent of pine was still hard to get rid of, and I could still hear every creak of the wooden floor.After Mom and Dad passed, I hadn’t set foot here again. No one did, and now the place was covered in green, with plants crawling up the walls, and grass gr

    VioletDad’s glare softened into something else as his eyes landed on Dylan. For a second, he gave him that same puzzled look he had given me, which made me wonder if he truly had no clue who we were.Another wave of warmth hit my chest just by watching him. He wasn’t looking at me anymore, which gave me this strange freedom to stare, remember, and think about what I had lost. I wanted to hold on to the sight of him for as long as I could, let my eyes trace every line and detail I had forgotten before it faded away again.There was one thing I had never forgotten about him, and that was his auburn shade of hair I used to love so much. It was the same color as my favorite doll’s hair, the one I still kept and was tucked safely away in my room at Starlight.Funny enough, his eyes were that same warm shade. I used to compare them all the time, tugging a strand of his hair and holding it beside his eye just to see how perfectly it matched. Thinking about it, I could only imagine how annoy

    VioletDylan froze, but no words left his mouth. He just stood there with his mouth open, not knowing what to say or what to do.He had seemed so sure of himself, stepping forward, but I guess talking to Violet from the past, especially for him, was easier said than done.“Yes, sir?” little me said, tilting her head in curiosity. She shifted her weight, eager for an answer.Dylan stammered. “I…”He kept blinking, but nothing came. I wondered if he felt the same as I did. It felt as if someone was squeezing my heart, and I didn’t really know what to do with it. I didn’t know how to feel looking at…me.Yet, something told me I could probably do a bit more than Dylan. I stepped out from behind the tree, feeling Kylan and Trinity right behind me. A pair of blue eyes, identical to mine, stared right back at me as Little Violet widened her eyes before she showed me a big, toothy grin.“H-Hi!”Her hand lifted in a shy wave.Had I always been this awkward?Taking a slow breath, I moved closer

    VioletLittle Violet’s laughter was so loud we could hear it through the wind, but I could hardly believe it was really me. Sure, life with mom and dad around was much better, but even then, I barely remembered ever being happy.But that laugh…It was pure joy.“Let’s go,” I said softly, breaking into a smile. I took a big step forward, but just as I was about to take the second one, I felt Kylan’s hand around my wrist, stopping me.I looked into his eyes, and this time they weren’t as playful as before. His expression was serious. “Wait, Violet,” he drew in a breath. “We can’t just go and…you know that if you shed one single tear—”“It’s over,” I finished for him. I swallowed, thinking about not wanting this to end just yet. I wouldn’t leave without at least one bit of knowledge about something that could help us, and that’s why I was so confident in my words.At the end of the day, I was someone with a heart and feelings, so I couldn’t promise I wouldn’t end up bawling, but not unti
