His rejected curvy secret
My body felt like it was being torn in two as each movement brought agony, and each breath made the fire of the curse burn hotter.
I kept my head down, trying to ignore the relentless ache in my muscles and the way the world flickered around me in flashes of silver. The curse had me on the edge. Umfa was awake, snarling inside me, pushing against my skin, begging to break free. I could feel her fury, feel the way she wanted to rip through everything in sight. But I held her back. I had to. I couldn’t let her take over. I couldn’t let the curse consume me. Not here. Not now.
