Her hair was braided back, her eyes stormy with promise. Toran stood opposite her, shirtless, his torso a canvas of scars and tattoos. His muscles flexed with each breath, his aura radiating dominance. The Elder raised his hand. “This is a challenge by combat. No weapons. No magic. Only strength and will. The fight ends when one yields—or cannot stand.” Luna’s gaze never left Toran. She rolled her shoulders, ready. The Elder dropped his hand. “Begin.” Toran lunged first, fast for a man his size.

My guess is she misinterpret the sparks of anger that floats around us as another kind of sparks because she doesn’t stop. “But, seriously, Sugar, you don’t have anything to worry about this beast here.” She throws her thumb at Lincoln. “He is a real teddy bear. Trust me.” She then pats my hand a couple of times. “You will be lucky to have him.” She veers off of the track too far. I have to stop her. But, heaven forbid if I have to do anything.

I get lost and almost forget where we are when suddenly the bathroom door opens and I remember Defne in it. I immediately let go of his lips and get into Deniz room before she gets out.

He said with a strong Italian accent. "Come in, come in, I've got some news for you, good news!" He moved aside and beckoned for her to come in.

“ Ok, I’m ready, “ I say to an empty porch. I got dressed in my usual jeans and a flannel. It was my casual and fancy wear. “ Over here, “ he calls. I walk out and look around a bit. All I see are beautiful evergreen trees and a few cherry trees, bushes, and tall green grass. We didn’t bother to cut the grass since we owned such a big plot of land. He appears beside me in my peripheral vision smoking a cigarette. I glare at him again. “ What, it’s not like I’ll die of lung cancer, “ he said pulling the cig out of his mouth. He took a big inhale of it and exhaled it out of his nostrils “There are children here. They don’t need to get a bad idea of doing that, “ Argue. “ Well, it’s not like th

Bonnie furrowed her eyebrows. "You do realize I am blind, right? I literally don't know what 'this' is supposed to be. John sighed and grabbed Bonnie's hand, placing the cane in her hand.
