The Third Wheel Strikes Back Novels & Stories

"Since he hit you, Tris, you should hit him back too." I couldn't believe she would say such a thing. "I don't think that's right…" Tristan said softly, but his hands at his sides were already clenched into fists. "You're not going to let some impostor walk all over you, are you?

The bracelet fell and smashed into pieces on the ground. The cracks on it were like wounds covering my body. "Aryanna..." Winston cried on his knees as if he had suppressed it for a long time.
