"That day in court, you could have chosen me. Why him? Why?!" My mother collapsed on the floor, her nails scraping against it with a harsh sound. Blood seeped from her fingertips, but she didn’t seem to feel it. "Until Mr. Wilson found me." Aidan’s voice softened suddenly.

"That damn cancer was going to take away the last family I had!"

Jane deliberately emphasized my identity as an orphan and a sly look flashed through her eyes. Then a panicky voice suddenly rang out. "Watch out!" I looked up and saw the chandelier above me was swaying dangerously. The next second, it came crashing down! In that instant, Andy grabbed Jane's wrist and pulled the panicked she-wolf tightly behind him. As for me? I had no time to dodge as it struck me hard in the forehead. Dizziness overwhelmed me as I fell to the floor, blood quickly trickled down from my forehead.

I just finished reading the last book when I started to write Descent for real! The title when this was still a draft was actually ‘Can’t Help Falling (In Love With You)’ because I was listening to the same song only the dark version at the time. But I got annoyed because I felt it was too freaking long to be a title.

Whatever it was going on. I had been keeping in my room, again. After all the shit that happened with Jemma and the incident with the plan going south, in a very bad way, I just wanted to keep to myself. I’ve been trying to stay positive but keeping myself to myself... I haven’t really heard much news about the guys... It's hard to stay positive when you don't have anything to be positive about.
