"I hate the distance. I hate that I created it by being afraid. I hate that my default response to vulnerability is to run." "I know," Eli said. "I want to stop doing that," I said. "But I don't actually know how to exist any other way. I've spent so long maintaining control that the idea of just... surrendering to what I feel is terrifying." Eli stood up and moved closer to me. "I'm not asking you to surrender," he said. "I'm asking you to stay. While you figure it out. While you're scared. While you're learning. Just... stay instead of running."

She asked. "Karen," he said simply and gave a slight shudder. She crossed the street, her palms in a tight fist, a frown on her face, her white hair was packed in a tight bun. Though the look on her face reminded Alex of his worst nightmare but still, Alex couldn't help the laughter that bubbled in his throat. 'Karen' was a short woman, she reminded him of a funny meme he had seen last week, which had compared short people to soldier ant.

I offer and everyone seems to snap out of whatever stupor they were in. The day was long and tedious. We finished the plans for my Dad's funeral. It was to take place on his pack lands in two days. Our funerals are much like human ones except we bury the body on our pack lands and we have an outdoor party afterwards to celebrate the love of the deceased and share in our grief of losing them.

I slept until 8:00 pm. The apartment was dead silent—Zachary hadn't come home. I played his voice message. "Darling, I might not be back tonight. I have to entertain a client. I ordered your favorite steak—it's at the door. When you wake up… mm, make sure to heat it up before you eat." He remembered that I loved steak; remembered that my stomach was sensitive, and that I couldn't eat cold food. He even remembered to remind me.

I stared at him. “No. I want to look my best. The doctor herself said I should be fine.” I sighed, “But if you don't want me to be taller than-” Triston snapped back at me, “Pick your shoes.” He took his phone from his pocket. “Just don’t blame me if something goes wrong.” I pursed my lips at him, “Dinner is at eight tonight. They’ll be here to do your makeup at six, alright?” He asked as if I had a choice.

There was this old Oskian saying that you can't freeze three feet of ice in a single day. But 6,000 feet?!

" I heard his Voice and then the running shower. This man has ruined my innocent mind for eternity ,how do I get the picture of his naked body out of my head . Oh Goodness. I turned and my eyes trailed from his luscious black hair to his pointed nose , strong cheek bones and pink lips ....down to his strong arms And his Abbs .... Frederico was tall ...and had the body of a super model ... I dared not look at his lower body .. Because what I'd seen had nearly blinded my eyes . How could he have Added that much after just a space of six years ?

The car halts at once, but despite the nature of my request, he never takes his eyes off me. My body freezes. That beastly fury begins taking over my senses. My vision blurs, adrenaline spikes, yet a strange, fleeting calm settles deep inside me as I step into the brush. I stop unexpectedly. All I hear are my own heartbeats and the cracking branches beneath the trees. A warm, fleeting but powerful scent reaches me. When I turn toward the road, I see a black car-a sleek Ferrari speeding toward us at a breathtaking pace. A smile spreads across my lips, and I rush back out to the roadside.

And one seventy-four dollar bill. My face instantly morphed into confusion. I felt iffy. That's it? It can't be just this easy. It's not even a punishment. "Don't get too happy, you have to walk to the market and bring all the groceries-" Ruth says as I crane my head slightly to look at her 5.7 ft tall frame. "-And the good part is you don't get to eat. Fair enough, right?" Her lips twisted into a fake smile. My lips parted, at the loss of words, unable to express my bafflement. Walk all the way to market and get all the things on the list. The market is forty-five minutes' walk away from here and that's not even my concern right now.
