I slumped to the floor, gasping, my hands flying to my neck. Through the tears stinging my eyes, I saw him. Ignatius. He didn't look like a savior. He looked like an omen. His tailored black overcoat caught the hallway light, casting a long, sharp shadow that cut across the wreckage of my home. He was Leo’s best friend, the man my brother spoke of with a mix of awe and fear.

Her breathing grew quick and uneven. “I’m near the cliffs right now. I wanted somewhere quiet to record this.

I don’t realize when I manage a small smile, easing the tension inside me, at her dramatic expression. Lily is one hell of a crazy girl. But don’t get me wrong, she’s a good person and very dependable. She doesn’t believe in mates and marriage; she believes in sex and vibes instead. I met her here at Moon Eclipse College, and she is the late Gamma’s daughter. She was the only girl who would stand up for me anytime I was bullied. Then she turns back towards me and her expression shifts into that cold one she always wears whenever she wants to strangle someone.

I paused for a beat, I felt like a creep and weirdo, but she did that to me. ''That's great. You've always lived an exciting life, anyways what's the deal with her?'' I asked. I needed to get out of my head before I started imagining more despicable scenarios. I had been unconsciously staring at that noirette for a while. If I intended to get with the girl one table over, I couldn't continue my eerie stare, so I decided to make a move before I was written off as a creep. Kiki sighed,'' That's Mindy Louve.

So, he had already planned out my entire retreat. There was a noise at the door, and I instinctively turned my head—but I couldn't see anything. "You must be Nina, right?"
