Willow My footsteps echoed in the hallway, but I didn't let that deter me. Even if it sounded like my flipflops alone could bring down the whole house, I didn't care. I was going to do what I wanted to do and no one was going to stop me. Not even Carter. He hadn't made a fuss when I'd gotten up this morning. We weren't married yet, so we still had our separate rooms, but I was surprised when he'd showed up at the front of my door something like an hour ago. His eyes were red, bloodshot even and I could bet he hadn't slept a wink last night. I wanted to, but I just couldn't bring myself to ask him the reason why he'd decided to torture himself in that manner. “Are you sure you really want to do this?” He'd asked. I didn't miss the tone of his voice though, he didn't want me to go through with it. At all. “I mean, you made your answer clear yesterday, but a whole night is a lot of time to rethink your decision.”“Yes.” I had In fact thought about what I wanted to do, and I wasn

Willow The spot by the huge flower vase was the perfect hiding place, shielding myself from the frivolities of the night. The party seemed to be in full swing now, and if I was being honest, the guests really looked to be enjoying themselves. Not me though, literally everything about the party seemed to be pissing me off. Well, everything except the celebrant. No matter where I looked, he was everywhere, and I wouldn't say I blamed him or didn't like it. It was his special day after all. The only thing that seemed to put a deep frown on my face was the woman who had sworn not to let him go for a couple of minutes. I could swear on my life that the longest she'd been away from Asher tonight couldn't be more than thirty seconds. Despite how clingy she was with him, he didn't seem to mind and it gave me mixes emotions if I was being honest. I shook my head lightly. I didn't need thoughts like these popping into my head, not when I'd come this close. My surprise to Asher was goin

Willow. I sat in my vanity, my reflection showing straight on the mirror. I'd been like this for the past one hour, but was I tired, not at all. Could I even see myself in the mirror, I couldn't answer that either. I let a tired sigh slide past my lips. I'd been doing that for as long as I can remember and it wasn't helping matters. My mind was a literal mess and right now I wasn't sure anything could be done to clear it all out. Even if there was, wasn't it already too late? I pressed my eyes shut and despite how hard I fought, the memory came rushing by. I'd had it all planned, from the beginning to the very end, so I had no idea how things had managed to go south. Even in my wildest dreams,I never saw it panning out the way it did last night. If I needed any more confirmation that the moon goddess hated me, I'd definitely gotten It last night and it was in the form of none other than Olivia. I didn't see her reaction coming. What hurt the most, was the fact that my gut fe

Carter “And that's what I told her.” Colin's hearty laugh reached my ears, but it didn't take too long for it to slip out the other ear. “And in a fit of rage, she stormed off.” I made a weak attempt at laughing at his jokes when Colin burst into another round of laughter. I'd been doing that for a while now, and he hadn't caught on to it. Yet. Honestly, I was hoping it stayed that way because I wasn't in the mood to explain anything to him. “Carter?” Colin's voice pulled me out of my thoughts. “You're not listening, are you?”“I am.” I shrugged, before turning to face him fully. I'd just lied and if there was anything Colin was good at, it was sniffing out lies, especially from me. “I'm a hundred percent with you.” “Really?” Colin crossed his hands across his chest. “What was the last thing I said then?”s “You were talking about a lady.” I nodded. Colin was always talking about one woman or the other, so there was no way this would be an exception. I hoped. “Right?”“What di

Carter I stood rooted in my spot for the next couple of seconds. Maybe if I could pretend I hadn't heard them, they would leave right? It always happened to me. Most times when I was too preoccupied with a thought, so much that it bothered me, if I ignored it for long enough, it would just leave. And if anything could be possible in my mind, it definitely meant it could be possible in real life too, right? I hoped. But I was wrong. The nervous glance that Colin threw my way was all the indication I needed to know that my imagination hadn't worked this time. The mystery person who had interrupted us was still there and I couldn't help but wonder if they'd overheard us or not. “Excuse me?” The mystery person spoke up again and if I was being honest, there was something off with their voice. “What's going on there?” Colin and I locked gazes again. I wasn't the only one who'd heard the uncertainty in his voice, Colin didn't miss it too. But what if I was wrong? What if it was al
