~Rosie
I shouldn’t be doing this, but I am anyway.
There’s no denying the feeling of my mates kiss. I’ve read books about it, heard stories, but I never thought I would ever experience it, after I died. Especially not with an Immortal, who has a tight grip, full lips and the heady scent of something I cannot get enough of. Even if this is what I should have been avoiding.
The way he grabs me, holding my waist, pulling me against him as he fists my shirt, as if he wants to pull it off. The way he kisses me, too, is passionate, aggressive, stealing my breath away, leaving me gasping for air as he pulls away for a moment.
“I hate how good this feels,” I murmur, a

~RosieA knock on the door wakes me.I barely have enough time to force my eyes open before Time glides into my room. He tugs the curtains open swiftly, allowing the light to stream right into my heavy eyes. It has to be some ungodly hour of the morning, considering how much my body protests. Plastering my sheets to my chest, I sit up, shielding my hands up against the light.“I apologise about the rude awakening, however, we have places to be this morning,” Time comments, standing at the foot of my bed, looking down at me impatiently. I grit my teeth, narrowing my eyes on him. Who knows what I could have been doing in here, and he just waltzed I’m in…&ldquo
Time 18
~Rosie (Chapter Eighteen)Time and I left in the next morning.He needed the night to regain his abilities to take us through time, to where he plans to head next. I keep my disappointment to myself, as the sun rises and I slip into the shower, thinking. I like this city. It’s strange to stand within it knowing it ceases to exist in original time. It makes me wonder what is going on while Time and I are here, hiding.I’m not sure what Time’s plan is, but I’m assuming there is no way he is going to share it with me until he feels like it. I’m pretending as though it doesn’t bother me, that it doesn’
Time 19
~RosieI slump down on the couch, unsure of what to do.Part of me wants to think Time needed to say that to me as a way to make himself feel better. A way of venting, maybe. Either way, I’m sitting here, unsure of what to do. I don’t want to touch anything, and risk leaving anymore of me behind than I already have. By tomorrow, I’m praying we will move on to perhaps a less desolate area. So, if Time wanders off again, it won’t be so treacherous to follow himThe sound of cracking bracken and rustling grass outside catches my attention. Getting up from the couch, I peer out the window - only slightly murky wit
Time 20
~RosieTime holds my hand tightly, leading me down the street.It’s almost comical, how we both look. Time has dressed up head to toe in clothing from this era that appears to be popular in this particular area. Both of us wear sheer white outfits that are fashioned similar to robes, hoods pulled over our heads. No one even casts us a second glance, which is a relief.“I’m still on the fence about showing you this,” Time mutters, pulling me down an alleyway. Glancing up, I see snow white painted balconies with drying clothes hanging off. Soft, up beat music drifts from the homes on the other sides of these washed ou
Time 21
~RosieWe didn’t resume our task until the next evening.Time and I spent most of the next day in the hotel room, hiding from both the public, and the blazing sun outside. It seems everyone has taken shelter from this heat, which seeps from the concrete outside, and wafts in through the open glass doors. I tried to spend some time on the balcony, watching people, but the heat became too much.Throughout the day, Time remained absent-minded. He paced often, speaking to me only in increments that were provoked by me. He gets into his own head often, clearly anxious about what he’s planning to show me tonight.When we did sit down together and have a conversation over lunch,
Time 22
~RosieThere’s a cold silence in the room.When I turn to look at Time beside me, his face is cold and stony, clearly not enjoying having to relive this moment. It’s even plummeted my heart into my stomach, and I’m not the one being broken up with for my brother. I can’t even begin to imagine how he must feel, having invested so much time into her for her to turn around and tell him something as heartbreaking as this.The Time currently living in this situation has lost all colour in his face, a flutter of confusion crossing his forehead. Quite frankly, he looks betrayed. I want. To reach out and slap that girl, or shake her. Why would she be with him in the first place if that isn’t what she truly wanted?
Time 23
~RosieThis kiss means something.I’m not sure if it’s born out of desperation, or it’s from a raging amount of emotion after Time witnessed his break up with Amaris again. Either way, we seem to have no time for soft, gentle kisses. This is all heat, passion and desire. I’m pinned to the bed, Time’s hands all over me, his lips drawing sensations from my body that I’ve never felt before.There’s no hope for me to pull myself away from him. My entire body reacts to his touch, and the sparks that dance across my skin as a result. He goes from cupping my face to running his hands down my shoulders, arms and then to my waist, where he pulls me up against his body.
Time 24
~RosieI’m done for.Sitting here, tucked into the back of a dark corner, I’m completely pinned, exposed to this powerful immortal’s eyes. He stares down at me, golden eyes narrowed slightly, looking over me with no shame whatsoever. There’s no excuse for this. There’s no way to turn back and reverse my own stupidity.What is this going to mean? The question is, will I return back to the present day, and it will all be a burning fire or a hole of nothingness? Maybe the Time from my era is already gone, having been completely destroyed as I appear in front of his past self.Another predicament, is that I’m completely speechless. He’s clearly not going to be
