RALI

"If the goal was to starve me here, you shouldn't have forced me to move in with you," I groaned, plonking myself on the edge of the bed.

Void didn't look up. Leaning against the edge of his desk, thumbs dancing over his phone screen, he scoffed, "Did you say force? I gave you options, Green. You're here because you chose to be."

"Please," I rolled my eyes so hard I must've strained something. "Stop acting like you wouldn't have found another way to just drag me here."

He finally looked up, flashing an arrogant smirk. "Glad you learning."

My stomach gave a pitiful growl that sounded like a dying animal. Meanwhile, Void was too engrossed in his screen. What had him so invested while there was a world war taking place in my belly?

"Look, I'm really really hungry. Since morning, I've had nothing but two miserable crackers and half a banana I found sulking in the fridge. You won't even let me order anything!"

I honestly didn't know what his problem was. We were out of frozen food

  • You Are Mine, Little Sister   178

    "Hi. Didn't mean to startle you," she waved at me.It made me wonder: had my fear been that obvious?She had this kind of rigid face. Really beautiful, but set in a way that told you she didn't tolerate nonsense.Even the way she appeared looked tough—Cargo pants with a black crop top. Her hair was held in a perfectly high ponytail."C—Can I help you with something?" My fingers found my necklace and worried it.I had no idea why the hell I did that, but it was something I couldn't do without when I was nervous."Yeah. I was just looking for—" She paused.She must've noticed what I was staring at—the red mark near her hairline. Did she get into a fight?"A pharmacy," she finished. "Ran into a crackhead and got clipped." She touched the spot, light and dismissive. "Don't worry, he looks worse than I do."I managed a small smile. "S—Sorry about that. I think there's one down the street. Just take your left when you get to the T-road."She craned back to look down the street. "Got it. Tha

    My pulse went feral, fast enough to hurt."Fuck," I closed my eyes and thunked the back of my head against the seat.My fingers strangled the steering wheel until the knuckles blanched. Heat climbed my wrists. The name hammered the inside of my chest like it was trying to get out and run to her first.She was here. She was here. Rali was here.I opened my eyes as my hand found the door handle. Strong hands yanked me back, hard enough to staple me to the seat.Instinct moved first. My palm went for my gun, ready to shoot them in the head."Don't," a voice snapped at my shoulder. "That isn't a smart move. She'll be frightened If she clocks that you've clocked her. Right now, every man from her past is a threat."Those were the only words that stopped me. The feral thing in my head snapped its teeth in disagreement. It didn't care about her reaction. It just wanted to move across the road, pull her into its fucking arms, and hug her so tight professional help would be needed to pry them

    "No." I tapped the cigarette to my lip and exhaled a ribbon against the glass. "Torontea is a safe place. It's the kind of place someone like her would want to hide." I had a gut feeling she was still here somewhere.I wanted to be out there snapping the city open with my own hands. Damn them for not having any surveillance cameras in their streets. So far, I'd been hacking into the cameras of restaurants, cafes, boutiques—anything I could lay my hand on. But there was still no sign of her.We'd been trying to keep the search as quiet as possible. If she felt the hunt, she'd run. She'd think it was Blayne. Her fear was something I couldn't afford. So, I put Katya out there. Had her go into the streets with Rali's picture, claiming to be her sister. Maybe the rumor of family would tug her into the light.But it's been over three days already. Three days and there was still no sign of her. Fuck, it was starting to feel like I was drowning."We'll keep searching. We'll find her," I offer

    RALIThe shop sign still said "Closed."Morning light sifted through the stacks and laid quiet stripes across my shoes. A lace of frost veined the window where snow kept kissing the glass, blurring the outside to watercolor.It was beautiful. Peaceful. Furtuiousl"So, it's that time of the month where I make you work a little harder," My boss said, addressing all three of us over the counter.Steam climbed off her coffee; her eyes did the same to us. "It's just my own way of making you good sales reps. By week's end, whoever racks the most sales gets a special reward. All you have to do is convince a customer that wanted two books to get four. Let them see reasons why more is better"She sipped her coffee."We stock a whole flock of business-strategy titles," she added, one brow arched. "I trust you've been reading those and not just chapters on boyfriends. Good luck.""Yes!" Brielle clapped as soon as the door swung shut behind our boss. "I can feel it. I'm winning this.""Keep d

    RALI"And these rows here are for the history lovers." She pointed at the shelves for me. "I know the store is quite big. That is why it's one of the most popular on here. But with time you'll get used to everything. And if you're confused at any point, you don't forget to ask the other girlies for assistance.""Sure. Thank you, ma'am.""Zerali, you need to promise you you'll be good." Her kind smile stepped aside for the manager. "Over here, I don't tolerate sloppy. You know, I don't even hire people without certificates, but Marovelle has been a good woman. Hell, I can't say No to any of her requests. I'm giving you a chance because of her. Don't make me regret it."I brightened, my fingers finding my necklace and smoothing the chain. "I do understand the length you're going for me, ma'am, and I won't take it for granted. I promise you won't regret it."She measured me with one last look, then nodded. "Good. Come now, let me show you these records."An hour later, I'd clocked in

    "What is it, girl? Let it out before it rots." Marovelle tapped the table.I chewed my lip, eyes doing laps around the room. "Well... I've decided to get a job."Rosaline gasped, her hands flying over her mouth just before she screamed "Holy Shit!"Marovelle thumped her arm without looking. "I've told you to stop cursing, you uncultured thing.""Marv! Can you ignore my vocabulary and focus on the miracle? Our girl wants to start living!"Marovelle pulled a chair beside me and took my hand. "Are you serious, Rali?"I nodded shyly, my cheeks warming."Well, this is the best news I've heard all year! Where do you want to work? Would you like the restaurant?"I lowered my head, my whole mood sliding a notch. I'd actually like to work there as I'd get to assist and repay her in some way, but the restaurant was usually filled with too many people of mixed genders. I wasn't ready to breathe the same air as that many men, not yet."I... I think I'd prefer somewhere calmer. I'm sorry.""Yup. S
