But soon, she would understand the consequences of being miserly. One day, while Greta was mocking me as usual, Hilda gleefully watched on. She walked into the living room with a glass of water to keep her throat hydrated. However, her movements were cautious, and she shuffled around nervously. As she was about to sit down, I suddenly shouted, "Ah!" Startled, she plopped down onto the chair, and there was a loud popping sound. Hilda let out an ear-piercing scream. Trembling, she glanced downward and saw that her pants were completely soaked. Her eyes rolled back into her head, and she fainted on the spot.

"Specifically, these feathers on it. They're plucked from Number 54. Stuck on the clothes, they provide excellent insulation." Ethan stared, dumbfounded. Was she saying—people grew feathers now? "Do you even realize what you're saying?" he raised his voice. Surely this woman was insane. Then again… which of the experimental subjects wasn't a little unhinged? Number 114 giggled, the sound teasing and intoxicating. "Number 54 evolved into… hehe, how to put it… a bird-man. He can't fly, but he's covered in feathers and can emit ultrasonic waves that make your brain feel like it's exploding."

Slipping my reading glasses over the bridge of my nose, I pull out the small stack of papers from the envelope and start to read them. By the time I reach the last page, my stomach is in knots and my entire body is shaking with fury. This has to be some kind of sick joke or a god-damn miracle. Fuck me… Removing my glasses, I toss them onto the desk as I recline back into my chair, and close my eyes as I rub the sides of my temples. The sound of my heart pounding against my ribcage drowns out everything around me. Birdene Black isn’t just some little girl Olivia and Jaxson adopted out of the kindness of their hearts.

Frankly, I've never understood why they changed the name of "The Feast" to the "Nutrition Center." Over seventy percent of the food here is high-fat, high-calorie "American fast food." Given we're in one of the most remote towns in America, finding diverse and multicultural chefs is even harder than getting truant students to attend class. Vegetarians even staged a public protest at school, leading to two chaotic weeks of everyone bringing their own lunches! Can't blame them, though—other options are either atrociously bad or might as well be diet pills.

The year before everything went sore, a tear drop slid down my eyes and I quickly stopped it with my finger. As the silence lingered on with Harry drowned in his own thought, a poem came to my mind “WRAP YOUR WINGS AROUD YOUR PAIN, FTRANSFORM YOUR PAIN INTO BEAUTIFUL WINGS LET IT TAKE YOU FAR AND BEYOND, BEYOND THAT WHICH HURTS THE MOST’

Turns out it’s not the sort of thing that holds fingerprints. A peacock feather.

Restrained. I could even hear the rush of blood beneath his skin. Again. And again. Floating comments exploded across my vision. 【The Alpha is seriously about to burst.】 【His head is completely full of marking her.】 I instinctively held my breath. Just then, hurried footsteps suddenly echoed from outside the springs. A voice called out through the mist. “Alpha! The traitors who fled to the Black Wolf Pack have all been captured!” Rhys did not turn around. He only answered in a low voice.

It was suspicious. “Anyone else feel like Disney’s about to break into song around here?” Cheyenne muttered, brushing a bug off her thigh. “I swear, if bluebirds try to dress me, I’m setting something on fire.” “I dunno,” Chelsea called out from the creek. “You are giving major forest princess energy today.” Before Cheyenne could retort, a gasp ripped through the air like a crack of thunder. Tora sat upright, blinking down at the spreading dark patch beneath her on the blanket. “Uh…”

Screams cut through the cold. Asher grabbed my arm. “We have to move.” But the hum was in my head now, pulling me east. Toward the breach. Toward the ones who’d thrown the fourth. --- Face to face The first one through wasn’t human. Not anymore. Its skin was the color of ash, its eyes black from edge to edge. And in its hand — a feather. Not one of mine. It saw the bone in my grip and smiled. “Four to open.” I tightened my hold. “Over my dead body.”

“It’s too late. They’ve already reached the front.” All four of them; my parents and his, held hands in a wobbly circle, moving with more enthusiasm than rhythm. Dad stepped too far left at one point and bumped into Milo’s mom, who laughed and accidentally swayed into my mom. It was chaotic. Embarrassing. Absolutely precious. I snorted. “This is tragic.” “It’s art,” Milo countered, eyes sparkling. The music picked up into a lively country tune. Faye’s boots tapped against the wooden floor, her voice smooth and warm as she sang about young love and long summers and riverside memories.
