he said, "any birthday plans?" Birthday? "Oh...uh, no, I don't usually do anything," Harlow replied. "How did you know?" "It's on your wanted poster," Madoc said with a sh*t-eating grin. "Wait." Red burst into the conversation. "You have a birthday coming up?" "It's no big deal." Harlow shrugged. "When is it?" I asked her, feeling like a bit of a jackass not knowing something about her that the smarmy vampire did. "The day after tomorrow," Madoc answered for her.

Is no one looking for me anymore? Another week passed and there's nothing unusual. My birthday is right around the corner. I have just one week left for my birthday. The excitement is killing me. I heard they are making great preparations for the birthday. They are keeping it a surprise. I hope they know they can't hold a grand party for me, I can't be killed before my birthday finishes. My birthday also happens to be on the day of a full moon. Which means they will be very powerful on days like that. I can't wait!

Five months round. With _his_ baby. She didn’t look at me. She walked to Lucas. Stood on her toes. Kissed him. His hand was still on my jaw. He let her kiss him. My stomach dropped. Not from jealousy. From memory. *Eight months ago. Bathroom. 3AM.* Blood on the tiles. My blood. My hands between my legs. His child. Our child. Gone. I crawled to the phone. Dialed him. Voicemail. Dialed again.

empty. It was Toby. The kid who used to live next door when I was ten. The boy my father swore had moved to Italy. Toby looked like a ghost. If this place was supposed to fix me, why did he already look like that? And what would I look like by morning?

"But on second thought, decided to save the grand celebration for your twenty-ninth birthday. And no Mijá, you cannot refuse that." Adelina smiled, nodding in surrender. "I won't." She glanced around the room before saying, "I noticed Nicolás left early." "Oh yes," her father affirmed. "He had some business dealings to finish with the McCurby's." Adelina's expression went still at the mention of that name. She dreaded hearing it the entire evening, even when she knew it was quite unavoidable. Luckily for her, she hadn't seen the one face she needed not get even a glimpse of and nobody had mentioned him much to her relief. At least, until now.

A while later, he turned and said coldly, “That day was the anniversary of my parents’ deaths. They died in a plane crash when I was ten. They were rushing home to celebrate my birthday. Even their assistant, Rory White, died.” I was shocked as I froze in place. The pain I felt for him was unbearable. I would’ve fallen over if I wasn’t leaning on the door. I looked at Atlas with widened eyes. I joyfully wished him a happy birthday that night, saying, “I hope your day will be as great and unforgettable as this day every day!” I was such an idiot that night. However, it was all Stella’s fault. I numbly asked him, "Is Stella Rory’s daughter?”

"Work" "So? What did you do this time?" Crystal laughed, "Nothing actually. The god of health sent someone close to me here. I'm here to see him". "The handsome man that is not your boyfriend?" Crystal nodded. The room went silent. "I'm sorry I haven't come to see you Michelle. I have just been so busy trying to survive my own life". She smiled at her, "It's fine. I understand". Michelle shifted on her bed trying to get up. "Do you need help?"

There was no power cut, the outside lights were on. "Yep, being an adult sucks." I mumbled as I rummaged through my purse for my phone and I turned on the torch. So much for ending my birthday night with a bang. It was past 2am, so technically it was no longer my birthday, but still. For my birthday dad had flown out four of my cousins to Bassa and as much as I was bummed that I could not celebrate my entry into adulthood with my best friends Becka and Isa, I still had the best birthday ever because of that wild, crazy bunch. I went clubbing and partied so hard, for those hours I had completely forgotten that a certain forbidden man I wanted more than anything exists.

Scott have you forgotten what day it is and why we are gethered here said Grace his mother glaring at him” Happy birthday Nana did you like the gift I sent you, Valarie hand picked it herself said Scott with a smile Wait.. what gift? I didn't even know it was his grandmother's birthday, I turned and glared at him shocked” he just smiled at me making me feel more uncomfortable with his lies"

No parent could ever mistake their own child. She knew I had burn marks from when I was young, Jacob had done my ear piercings, and Dad himself had treated my leg injuries. She believed that even if I were reduced to ashes, Dad would still recognize me as his daughter. Dad let out a cold, humorless laugh. "Someone like her doesn't die easily. The worst ones always manage to survive the longest." Ruth furrowed her brows. "But she's been gone for days now. Mr. Eastman said the body has burns on the legs, just like Lina's scars that never healed!"
