She was dressed in a silvery gown and looked like a queen. What she lacked though, was a crown on her head and three dozen guards watching her every step. She was Sarah, Harold's stepmother. In the seats behind the driver and Sarah was Harold and someone who was bound to make his next two years in Golden Lake University more miserable; Maximus (or Max for short).

Chapter 16: Priest We are seated in a large sedimentary rocks near the sea. The cut in my neck became exquisite, which is why Shiloh decided to stay here for a while. He cleaned my woods using the herbals he found near the forest to the Erythraean Sea. He cleaned it using the water we bought for drinking. I said to him that we shouldn't waste the water left in us since we don't know where we will ever reach our destinations. I mean we have sea water in front of us so why would you waste water that we are consuming? He just looked at me like I was the stupidest person he had ever met.

This had to be the wealthiest group of people in the entire world, to have so much salt that they would rub it on their bodies and let it wash off into their rivers. "I'll help you," Set said, not nearly as pressed about this development. He had never had to worry even for a moment about salt consumption, or food at all for that matter since he slept through the cold season. He pulled the jar of scrub closer to the shore, and then sank into the water next to Shuule. She would much prefer to bathe herself, but with only one arm, it was proving difficult. With a handful of the purple mixture, Set pressed his hands onto Shuule's shoulders, starting to move them in a circular motion. "Dip your h

Luckily, I was wearing my bind, which hides my chest. That night, I watched the man who entered my life sleep. I watch as his chest rises and falls, his soft snores as he exhales through his nose. I studied the man who can have any girl he wants but wants to spend time with me. This beautiful island man is sleeping on the same bed as me. I rub my chest, having that thumping feeling. I hate getting close to men, especially what happened during my childhood. I hate men touching me as it reminds me of him. Though I overcame it throughout the year, I can never forget it. But when Seth touches me, I feel warmth and calm from him. He can make the raging monster inside be tamed.

Lucy stuttered, "L...let me go! A...are you trying to kill me? As long as I'm alive, don't think of…" Eva slammed Lucy against the railings so hard that Lucy felt numbness on her back. Her wedding ring slipped and fell onto the deck. Half of Lucy's body was beyond the deck. She suddenly lost her balance at three stories high and fell into the sea. The lively party on the second floor had drowned the sounds of her fall. The moment she touched the cold, icy waters, she strangely felt a sense of warmth. The sea was where her mother once was, so she was not afraid. She would not cry.

CHAPTER 64 LENA POV The cliffs towered high above the sea, and the waves crashed hard against the rocks below. The cool breeze carried salt across our skin as Salvatore and I walked side by side. The fortress had gone quiet behind us. The night wrapped around everything like a blanket. We didn't speak at first. There was nothing awkward about the quiet; it felt comforting after everything we'd shared in that bedroom. Words weren't needed yet. I looked out at the endless ocean stretching in front of us. When I first came to this island, those waters had represented everything I was trapped by. I'd dreamed about crossing them night after night. About escaping. About returning home. About getti

The air changed too—where before it had been weightless and cold, now it carried the faint scent of ozone and something else, something almost like the ocean but not quite, like the memory of salt rather than salt itself. Eliana stopped at the edge of the sea. Before them stretched a shore. Not a real beach—not of any world she knew—but a shoreline nonetheless, a geography that made sense in the way dreams made sense, obeying an emotional logic rather than a physical one. The black sand sloped upward to a ridge where the darkness seemed to gather like a storm cloud made solid, heavy with unspent rain. And against that ridge, nestled in the crook of two leaning boulders that looked like shoul

The teacher's looking — the person who had been looking at this window and this classroom and this strip of sea for two years, the body that knew the room the way the room knew the attending body. "The sea changes every morning," Joseph said. "Not the sky above it — the sky has the usual sky variety. The sea itself changes. In October the sea is dark — a deep grey-green, the colour of the shadow under the wave. In January the sea is flat — a pale grey, the surface as smooth as metal.
