Turning Red Miriam X Mei 소설 & 이야기

“I don’t start work until four o’clock.” “Good. I’ll take the rest of the day off, and we’ll just talk until you say everything you need to. Alright?” “OK.” She was still shaky and frightened, but at least she wasn’t alone. “See you soon.” **** Neil Gammon stared across the table at Mirrie, not at all liking what he saw. He’d been her AA sponsor for two years, and he’d seen her in a really bad way more than once… but nothing like this. Whatever this was, it was serious.

Miriam blurted out. Liam's eyebrows shoot up. "Ooooohh.. Can we go with you?" He asked, grabbing Rupert by the shoulders. The ladies looked at each other. "Sure!" Miriam replied. "Great! Is it the one called Red Monkey?" Liam clarified. "Yup! That one! How did you know?" "It's coz I saw an ad for it earlier." "Eh?? I'm the same!" "We should call for reservation then. Just in case they'll be packed."

Mia suddenly screamed as her nails grew longer and her eyes turned red before she scratched on Alyssa's face, inserting three of her fingers in her eyes at the same time. "Ahhhh! Why did you do that?" Alyssa covered her eyes with the palm of her hand as she yelped in so much pain. Her appearance and height began to change as she removed her hand from her face, Mia finally saw her and recognized. "You were the same orphan I saw the other day, you have returned again!" Mia pulled her hair. "I have told you that I am not an orphan, now give me that necklace so I can go!" she attacked Mia as well and their necklaces were glowing.

Relief filled my best friend's face as she saw me and her eyes watered. We were far apart on the line and couldn’t speak until later that night, when they released us all to mingle as we waited for who the Revillon man called, Madam Claire. “Marissa,” Kezira called the fake name the queen had given me as she clung to me in a tight hug and cried softly. "Hey, hey, it's okay. I'm here now, it's going to be better" I said as I held her face and tried to get her to calm down.

She laughed so hard and a sick smile crossed her lips before saying, "At least I'll die a happy woman. Roxanne has lost her child. How wonderful is that? Hahaha! Ouch!" Henry squeezed harder, cutting off her air supply. Despite her face turning purple from lack of oxygen, Miriam still maintained a mocking smile on her face. "Even... if... you... kill... me. I won," Miriam grinned with bloodshot eyes. She looked like a crazy villain from a kdrama series. "Hahaha-" Her laughter was cut off when she felt a jab in her neck. Henry stepped back and said in a menacing deep voice, "Now you will know how it feels. The only problem is, no one will help you."

"Perhaps we should discuss this in private—" ​"Now, Miriam." ​The healer flinched. "The child is yours. There is no doubt. She shares your blood, your strength, everything." ​The air punched out of Elena's lungs. Relief and terror hit her at once. Maya would be saved—Xander would never let his daughter die. But now, he would never let them leave. ​"There's more," Miriam continued, her voice barely a whisper. She turned the tablet around. "Her blood is... changing. Or maybe it’s finally waking up."

“And I still have to take my finals.” “I see.” Miriam stood, adjusting her beautiful royal blue skirt set. She looked so classy, whereas I looked like a rumpled mess. She began to move toward the door, which made me panic. “Mirium.” She stalled but kept her eyes looking at the door. “I’ve killed three people.” She turned and looked at me, matching the tears welling in my eyes. “I know. Nothing I will teach you would have changed their fate. Forgive yourself. You were saving the lives of people you loved. What scares you is that, given the situation, you would do it again.”

But that did not mean she could trust him She turned and looked them all. "Bring out your hands." Her eyes changed to green an extended her hands to them. Jason didn't question his mom and gave out his hand. Miriam pierced with her katana. Blood came out of his hand and his eyes flickered green and golden before coming back to normal. She took Alicia's hand and did the same. He eyes flickered from blue to red then back to blue. "You" she pointed at Max. He hesitated for a moment and gave out his hand. Miriam pierced as well and his eyes turned from brown to fire red and back to his original eye color. There was a bit of astonishment but it disappeared before no one noticed

“Okay, Miri.” “Is it too much?” “It is absolutely the right amount of too much.” She walked around her slowly. “Turn.” Miriam turned. “That’s the dress,” Emily said simply. “That’s it.” Mia appeared beside them, took one look, and nodded with the quiet confidence of someone who had seen a lot of women in a lot of dresses. “You look magnificent, ma’am.” Miriam looked at herself in the mirror for a long moment. She thought about Damien’s exact words that morning.

“Come, child.” Lena rose slowly, aided by Miriam’s steady grasp. But as she stepped away from where she had stood, a dark stain marked the floor. Miriam’s eyes caught the glint of red. “Blood,” she murmured, her voice taut with alarm. Lena halted, a gasp breaking from her lips. Her hands flew to her belly. “My baby… no…” she whispered. “Lie down,” Miriam ordered, her calm suddenly taut with urgency. She caught her gently. “Stay still—do not move again.”
