Star-crossed Books 소설 & 이야기

"A love that defied the odds and forged a bond strong enough to withstand even the darkest of times." As they continued to explore the contents of the box, they uncovered a series of scrolls intricately bound with silken threads, each one bearing witness to the love story that had transcended centuries of hatred and prejudice. With bated breath, they unrolled the scrolls, their eyes scanning the handwritten passages that recounted the trials and tribulations faced by Draven and Lysandra, the star-crossed lovers who had dared to defy the norms of their time.

“It’s time.” He knew now that Andrea had been married to Maxwell’s brother, an abusive alpha and that was how she had gotten her scars. Her husband had died one day when she had had enough of the battering, but in their world, violence against kin had one outcome. Scarred hands and disfigurement. Maxwell had known about his brother’s behavior and promised to protect Andrea. She stayed because she felt indebted to him for what he had done.

To the west, the silver forests of Lyriah stretch endlessly, their trees still luminous but growing darker the further I travel from Eclipsehaven. I'm heading toward the Crossroads of Aetherwyn—a trading hub where the borders of Lyriah, Meristhal, and Varelle meet. It's the only place I know of where someone like me might disappear into the crowds, might find passage to somewhere far from the Moon Sanctum's reach. If I can make it that far.

I want you…I bit my lip, the taste of sin and lust driving me insane. The isolation gnawed at me, so I slipped away to the balcony for fresh air. The night sky stretched above me, jeweled with stars but no moon. The breeze kissed my skin, and I closed my eyes, soaking in the peace until it shattered at the touch of a rough hand on my bare back. “What the hell!” I spun, panic flaring, only to see a pot-bellied man with a greasy smile. Recognition hit me like bile. Caleb. Beatrice’s nerdy brother from high school, now aged and foul.

"I guess for once you're seeing me when I'm not completely pissed-off at you." We finished with the gifts and I carefully stood up and gingerly stepped around the pretty wrapped up presents. I turned and held my hand out to Sandy while she did her best to maneuver around them without stepping on any. She almost made it before stumbling at the last minute, kicking a pile over and falling toward me. I caught her and held her up, pulling her backward with me until the wall halted my retreat. She stared up at me, my arms still wrapped under hers, holding her closer than I intended. Her hair smelled like strawberries.

He kept stroking through it, milking every drop onto my skin, until we were both shaking. Then there was silence. It was just the fire and the saxophone and our breathing. He untied me slowly, undoing my wrists first, kissing the faint marks, then my ankles, before massaging them gently. When I took the blindfold off, the room was empty except for the tree and the fire. But on the ottoman beside me lay a single red velvet box. Inside, there was a delicate platinum necklace with five tiny charms, each one was a different Christmas symbol and in the center, a perfect, glistening pearl.
