He said out loud instead. “Yes.” Nova clapped excitedly, throwing her hand around his waist to hug him. “You like it?” “Yes baby, I love it.” He said, gently stroking her hair as he stared at the painting. The way the young woman had mixed colors to get this shade of neon was just intelligent. Well, he should not be so amazed. Ciaran only admitted geniuses, no matter how much money their guardians owned. “It’s Blind Tonto Drawing.” “What?” He turned to look down at Nova.

Ashe yells, causing me to startle. I had completely forgotten the treasure and the fact that we still had a job to complete, I was so lost in John and our kiss to even think clearly. I walk over to Ashe while Lizzie and Corie fix up my grandfather. There’s a heavy lock on it, that I break with the head of the shovel. Flipping the lid open, everyone gasps at what is inside: jewels, gold doubloons, and a painting. A painting of a beautiful woman with raven hair and pale skin, sharp cheekbones and full lips, blue eyes piercing through you as you look at her portrait. A soft smile plays on her lips in the painting, her blue eyes a gleam with mischief. Pulling the portrait out, I turn over the fr

The voices intensified as a beam of light lit up Jeremy on a higher stage. The rhythm he played started soft and slow but little by little the drums intensified. When the symbols crashed, a platform rose onto the stage with Kyung Jiho on it. Hae Mina grinned when she saw the white slivers light up under the black lights. On the back of Kyung Jiho's shirt was his name and on the arm was the Nightide emblem. The drum's symbols crashed and the next instrument joined. One by one, Nightide appeared on the stage with their parts. Hae Mina knew this was not her song to come in on because she had never been given a part.

Cody, the most influential figure in the city, was arrested by the police on the spot. Facing reporters, he looked into the cameras with bloodshot eyes. "Jenny, I've avenged you." There was no regret or fear of imprisonment in his eyes. There was only a sense of relief. And I, sitting in front of the screen, changed the channel. The weather forecast segment was on. The new presenter smoothly reported, "According to the latest meteorological data, our city will usher in a snowfall tomorrow, expecting…" I looked out of the window calmly. Tomorrow, we would finally welcome this year's first snowfall.

After Nancy walked away, Clara immediately leaned over, looking sympathetic. "Twenty pieces! And they're for Mr. Knight's review. You'll have to pull an all-nighter. Even a mule on a production team wouldn't work this hard!" "It's over, it's over—you're doomed!" I opened the document and typed rapidly on the keyboard. "It's okay, I won't be doomed." I focused on my work. When I flipped to the page of the artwork "Fading Spring", the signature JY stabbed at my pupils. Who in the art world didn't know that name? JY—the talented female painter who jumped from the top floor twenty-three years ago.

The day before Lucy, Hector and I had gone into the closest major city to order furniture for the nursery. They delivered it early this morning and I’d taken most of the afternoon unwrapping and placing everything where I wanted it. Yesterday, I’d chosen the paint too, opting for a grayish-blue color. One of our pack members was an artist and I had her come in and paint black line-work on the walls. My theme was moonlight forest. So on one wall was a forest of trees as an accent and then the moon over some grass with flowers on the other. It was simple lines but it came out better than I imagined. It was starting to look like a nursery.

“I don’t believe in such things until I see them. I want to touch the pyramids. They are fairy stories to keep people marching to the edge of the world.” Decimus nodded in agreement, and August laughed. “You have to be joking with me.” Both looked up at him as one but Decimus spoke. “Why believe such things are real or that the paintings of such grandiose objects are not an artist’s dream? Look where we are here this day, marching to the north, to the supposed end of the natural world. It is nonsense for truth. I think it’s all a story to get us to be better soldiers.” “I suggest you twins go there some day and see them. They are real.”

I'm quiet because I actually feel guilty about all of this, I feel like I would have been able to do something. “No, that's not it, mom. I'm not scared of the news, and I will not get any nightmares,” I say and mom smiles. “Goodnight honey!” mom says and I wave, “Goodnight mom,” I say. She flips my light switch off and darkness floods the entire room. I turn off my phone and now I'm in absolute darkness, the kind of darkness where I can't even tell whether I'm lying or standing. After a few seconds of counting sheep, I fade. into my subconscious, gradually.

When the third night came she was tired in the good way. Lucas disappeared on the second day. She did not look for him. She knew where he was. On the morning of the third day she walked into the council room and stopped. He had hung a painting on the wall above the main table — large, framed properly, clearly worked on for weeks without a word. All four of them. The ceremony ground, the silver-black light, the moment after the integration when they had all reached her at once. He had the light right, the way he always got the light right. He had painted their faces not in the dramatic version of that moment but the real one — Kyson's relief doing battle with his composure and losing, Hayden'

Her ryes were almost falling out of their sockets as she looked around her. The building was painted white and the sun reflection on it made it seem like she was looking at the heavenly gates. There was a large fountain by the center of the compound that housed a statue of Cupid the god of love. "I wish we could just stay on here and I continue watching you but we have to go in there Ariana. Everyone's waiting," Calhoun said with a smile on his face. It wasn't his usual devilish smile, this one looked like it came from deep within his soul. He looked genuinely happy to watch her.
