Those simple sentences kept echoing in Emmett's mind. All at once, it felt like he had been cursed. Those words echoed in his mind so much that a sharp pain spread across his forehead. The immense pain left him devoid of any strength. With a loud thud, his phone fell and slammed onto the table. Unfortunately, Emmett had tied the candlesticks with thin threads to ensure an even distance between each. One candlestick fell, pulling on the threads and causing the others to fall over, too. Hot flames spread onto the dead leaves and feathers on the ground. It then traveled toward the wooden dominoes.

“I forgive you. But there is no going back for us. May the Moon Goddess guide you to a new path.” Logan swayed on his feet, a single tear tracing a path down his cheek. He gave a final, solemn nod, then left the ballroom, his shoulders slumped in defeat.

flashback Kayla made it to this handsome stranger and his dog before I did, but he thankfully held on to her before she could touch the animal. “Woah, princess, you don't just touch any dog like that, okay? It can hurt you.” He explained, tone gentle. “But I wanna touch it.” Kayla pressed stubbornly, her mouth taking on that cute pout most people found hard to say no to.

Britney managed to squeeze in before I cut the call. “I hope he’s not coming with us,” she glared, folding her arms. “No worries there muffin,” I cooed lifting up my camera bag, “I got it covered.” She nodded, trailing down my figure, eyes widening, “That’s what you’re wearing!” I glanced down at the large fuzzy shirt I was wearing matched with dark leggings and ankle boots, “what’s wrong with this?” “Really Makayla?!” “What?!” “You look like a Hobo!” she huffed staring at me in horror.

Kate smiled and said, "Because you turn ten years old tonight, it'll be your first shift and the falls are safer to be rather than the hollow." "Does it hurt?" Oli asked and Kate sighed, "Unfortunately yes, but you'll adjust." "I don't like the falls they're too loud. They drown out everything." Oli said and Kate gave a slight smile, "We'll be behind the falls where it won't be as loud hopefully." she said and the two made their way to the falls. . . .

I suddenly felt very uncomfortable about all of this. Looking at the food on the floor, Anna fell silent. I laughed at myself. "Do I look like a joke to you?" Anna said nothing. I sighed and looked regretfully at the food scattered on the floor. Then, I was going to leave again. Anna called out to me. "Zephyr, I've always thought you were one." I turned around, and what I saw was tears rolling down her cheeks. She crouched down and leaned against my knees and sobbed, ignoring the grime all over me.

In order to see the aurora with Alexander, I began planning a year in advance. Alexander and my adopted sister had already left me behind and gone to the destination ahead of time. When I arrived, no one answered the phone. I waited for ten hours before he finally returned my call. On the phone, Evelyn laughed excitedly, "Diana! I've already explored this entire city. Alex is so mature and charming—he planned everything in advance. I'm having such a wonderful time!" She chattered away, sharing her experiences, while Alexander occasionally play along to add details. The two of them had spent the holiday blissfully together like a pair of lovebirds. It was as if neither of them had noticed o

As soon as she walked into the bedroom, she noticed everything—the messy sheets beneath the blanket, Winston's shirt buttoned up wrong, and the fresh scratch on his inner forearm. Every little detail shouted his betrayal in her face. Winston's eyes met Kayla's, and he froze. He couldn't place it, but something felt different about her. "Yeah," he replied, pulling her into his arms. "I passed up all their invites so I could be back with you sooner." "Mr. Atwood, you've had quite a few drinks. How about I whip you up a hangover remedy?" Tiffany suggested. Kayla glanced over her shoulder and caught Tiffany giving her an unmistakable look of provocation.

I nodded my head as I couldn't help but agree with her. Bidding her goodbye, I exited the kitchen and then the main door. As soon as I stepped out of the main door, the harsh sunbeam fell directly on my eyes, blurring my vision. I blinked my eyes until my distorted vision merged into transparency and definition.
