“How a man can promise one thing and erase you the next. How a daughter raised in loyalty becomes a footnote in the story of a crown.” Thorne exhaled. “Elara—” “I’m not asking for comfort,” she cut in, soft but sharp. “I’m asking for truth. If I can’t have power through love, I want to know how it’s taken by force.” Something flickered in his eyes then. Respect, maybe. Or warning. “You sound like my Sister.” “I take that as a compliment.” “She died for that attitude.” “I intend to live for it.” He gave her a long look. Then, finally, nodded once.

she asked me. I shook my head. “That will be all; thank you.” She scurried away. I pulled my phone out and put on a random show, letting it sit in front of us, but Juliana didn’t show much interest in it. Taking a chance, I put on an old, stupid show that hadn’t been aired in years, but I had enjoyed before going to prison. It was a kid’s show, though my brother had also secretly enjoyed watching it with me during his downtime.

He was so attractive! Groaning, knowing I'd never be more than just his best friend's young daughter, I logged off Facebook and put my laptop away. I put my phone on silent and set it down on the bedside table next to me. I didn't want any distractions while I relaxed before dinner. Maybe I'll watch something, but what? Scrolling through the options in my head; Scream? No. Pretty Little Liars? No... hmm, Salem? YES!! I loved Salem, it was so dark but at the same time AMAZING!... and quite s*xual.

The chick flick marathon was in full swing. Allegra leaned over to me, her eyes twinkling with excitement. "So, Cindy, do you have a favorite chick flick?" I grinned, ready to divulge my guilty pleasures. "Oh, where do I start? I'm a sucker for the classics. 'Pretty Woman,' 'Dirty Dancing,' and 'The Notebook' are my top picks. How about you?"

" Do you have any social media? " " No, I don't have anything on my phone really. Just Candy Crush and Netflix. " I shrug, not really liking social media. Too much drama with celebs and news. I've watched a bunch of shows on Netflix. I love the shows Stranger Things, Pretty Little Liars, The Fosters, Switched At Birth, and Heartland. I'm not done with PLL yet, so no spoilers pleaseeee, I'm on season 3 episode 5. Kylie says it's the ' best season ' or the ' dramatic season '.. I forgot. I have a bad memory sometimes.

I love you. Only Yours, Nick. My tears are flooding. __________ SFTC: Young And Beautiful - Lana Del Rey
