Years Ago:"I find it very inappropriate whenever you ask me such questions, Uncle Morgan!" In order for him to remember what his relationship with me was, I called his name very clearly."I am sure kids these days talk about everything openly," he shrugged, showing no regret."My son is so open about things." He made me cringe when he mentioned his little son. He was younger than me, and this man over here was flexing about his son talking about adult stuff openly."Then he definitely needs better parents," I muttered, forcing a very cringe smile to let him know I wasn’t even joking."Ah! I don’t know about that. I am sure only I can take care of him. Let’s not talk about him. Tell me about yourself. When you start wearing bras?" He asked me, making my eyes jump out of their sockets in shock and disgust."Hey! I am your father’s age. And I am telling you, it is normal. People talk about these days openly." He instantly waved his hand to get me comfortable with him.A 15-year-old who

I held my breath in and prayed. She peeked inside and then turned around to face me.“I can expla--,” I stopped when I saw that the closet was empty. I mean, Paul was not in there. I stopped shivering. Where did he go? Now I looked more curious than my mom.‘’What?’’ mom asked, following my stare.‘’Hm? oh nothing.’’ I shook my head quickly. ‘’you needed something?’’ I inquired.‘’No, I was just checking on you.’’ She said, walking over to my bed and sitting down.“Come sit with me,” she said, patting the empty spot with her. I sat down with her, wondering what was going on?“Uncle Morgan is only worried about you.” She started and I realized why she came upstairs. After I left the dining room, I bet they talked about me.“I have you to take care of me. When he acts like he is my fa—ther, I get angry,” I said in all honesty. I didn’t want any father figure.“I understand. However, if the whole partying thing is indeed true, then remember, you have broken my trust. I am not going to ar

I told her the whole story behind that infamous night and the horror never left her face. Anybody would be petrified of the things we went through that night. However, there was only one survivor to that chaos and I got a lot of hate for it from my neighbors, school, and the victim’s parents.“Phoenix!” she got up from the bed and instantly hugged me tightly. “I am so sorry for making you remember it all again. It mustn’t be easy for you,” she was crying for me.“It is not, but I feel much better now,” I reassured her that I would be fine, but I could tell she was blaming herself for reminding me that.I stayed silent. We had a good talk about it and when I realized how late it was; I decided to drive back to the mansion. No way I was going to stay with Derrell ever again, not even for one night.“I will head back to the mansion now. Let me know if you need anything, okay?” I told Zoe, giving her a gentle hug and then pouting, “Are you sure you don’t want to come with me?” I asked onc

I don’t know how long we have been passed out for, but I knew for sure that I was badly injured. My head was bleeding with a dry blood all over my face. It wasn’t too much, but it was something that was making me dizzy. It was dark for a few minutes before I opened my eyes and regained my consciousness. I was still stuck in the car, my head hurt. Luckily, aside from a few scratches on my arms and hands, my head wasn’t bleeding. But it definitely has an inner injury or concussion. I forced my eyes open, trying to look around and see where I was.“Phoenix!”“Phoenix!” I heard someone calling my name again and again. My vision was a little blurry and my eyes demanding to stay close.“Hold my hand.” he insisted. I did nothing. I just wanted to close my eyes and sleep until the headache was gone.“PHOENIX!” a harsh shout and a sudden shrug to my shoulder pulled me back to reality. I panicked once I knew I was being stuck in a car’s backseat. The car seemed to be upside down, windows broken

"What? what are you blushing for?" Jace asked me, and I shook my head to notice Jace watching me with questionable eyes."I’m just cold," I lied. Of course, I was thinking about Xavier. And there we go. His name again brought a smile to my lips."Have my coat." He didn’t even ask me if I needed his coat, which I didn’t. For some reason, I wanted to go back as soon as I could. It felt like cheating on Xavier when we haven’t even started dating officially."Thank you so much, but it has all the douche cologne on it." I shrugged my shoulders, twisting my face to the right to see if I could climb back. Nope! It was too high from there."I know I was douche back in there." He didn’t even finish when I snorted a laugh."You still are." I don’t know why, but I didn’t want to hear about it anymore. We have already moved on, but I’ve."Phoenix. Let me finish." Once he bluntly looked at me and sort of raised his voice, my smile faded away. "It was my fault. I should have let you explain, but wh
