Jonas carried a cracked green marble in his pocket and touched it three times before sleeping. Althea needed one chair in every room angled toward the exit or she could not eat. Micah built towers that leaned and then sat beside them without correcting the tilt, as though proving to hi

Forbidden ways. I shook my head, telling myself I was imagining it. Surely, I couldn’t feel… this. The bookstore bell jingled as I pushed the door open. The familiar scent of aged paper and coffee filled my nose, grounding me for a moment. I breathed out slowly and moved toward the back, where the quieter shelves waited.

They’ve forgotten what it feels like to have your soul deleted by a glitch." ​ ​We arrived in Manhattan three days later. The city had a strange, fractured beauty. The Thorne Tower remained a dark, glass needle a monument to the "Black Ledger" era but the streets below were bustling with a new kind of commerce.

There is no mate bond, but having him close makes me feel more secure. “I can’t wait for you to see this.” He rubs his thumb on the top of my hand as he leads me to a store. It’s rare Bronx gets so excited about surprising me. We approach a bookstore with a dusty, old window display. In gold paint, there is a picture of a pan flute and a goat.
