Chapter 25
It was hard to pass the house's threshold for the first time since the afternoon it all happened. Even with Silas flush against my back, giving me all the strength he could. I knew I had to do this; I was already halfway through the summer break, and it needed to be done before returning to school. For the last two weeks, Silas has been trying to amp me up to go back here and last night I felt strong enough to finally face it. So, today was a good day as any, but it felt like there was a barrier that kept…-

Chapter 24
Xiomara rocked against my bulge as her sweet mouth sucked at my collarbone. The scent of her slick filled the room, making my thoughts cloudier by the second. “Fuck, baby.” I groaned as her teeth sank into my skin before her tongue lapped at the mark, soothing it. Wrapping my hand in her hair, I pushed her down my body, making her giggle at my impatience. Her hair tickled my sides as it moved past, and I couldn’t help but shiver. I wasn’t expecting her to nuzzle my hard cock against…-

Chapter 23
The sun's descent painted the sky in hues of crimson and gold, a fiery spectacle that seemed to mirror the warmth I felt within. Xavier and I had found our camping spot, a secluded clearing that promised a night under the stars, away from the world that often felt too small to contain us. We set to work, our movements harmonized by years of friendship. The tent rose with ease, our hands deftly maneuvering poles and fabric until it stood proud against the encroaching twilight. There was an unspoken…-

Chapter 22
They had hair that was pulled back but not gelled in place. Their eyes were the most intense red that glowed, and their ears were full of piercings. They wore a dark suit with a red tie and kept a hand in their pocket casually. But the most mesmerizing thing about him was his tattoos. Half his face and entire neck were covered with them. I was too far away to see if they had any real shape, but from what I could tell, they moved. “Who are you?” I asked. “You can call me Draven.” They…-

Chapter 21
The sun had already climbed high, casting a warm golden hue over the world as Xavier and I finally hit the trail. The air was fresh, a vivacious symphony of pine and earth that filled my lungs with each breath. I had always found solace in the wild, a sanctuary where the chaos of life seemed to fade into the background, replaced by the simple rhythm of nature. Xavier walked beside me, his strides confident and sure as we navigated the winding path. The trail was a familiar one, etched into my memory from…-

Chapter 20
When we entered the cemetery, my entire stomach was twisted in tight knots. Despite the heaviness in my chest, the cemetery was very still. Before Silas could walk any further, I placed my hand against his chest to stop him in his tracks. He looked at me questioningly, and I swallowed past the lump in my throat. “We have to give our entrance token to the guardian,” I said, pulling my hands from my pockets and holding onto the handful of coins. Every cemetery had a guardian, someone or something who…-

Chapter 18
“Honey, I’m home!” I called out, throwing my bag at my feet as soon as I entered the door and threw my hands in the air. An older woman walked around the corner with a kind smile on her face. “I’m happy to see you, Xavier dear.” “You too, Mrs. Carter.” I grinned. She tutted and swatted the air in front of her, causing the air to swat me on the shoulder. “You know better. Carissa or mom. None of this Mrs. Carter nonsense. It makes me feel far too old.” “You know, my life…-

Chapter 16
It felt like I was fighting my way through quicksand; the air was so thick. The room I was in was definitely a study, but a study I knew I had never seen before but, for some reason, had familiarity with. The walls were dedicated to books except for the fireplace that the executive desk was facing. The desk itself was clean, not a single piece of paper or pen to be found. I managed to make it to right before the desk before my feet were rooted in place and the once empty fireplace roared, a new thriving…-

Chapter 15
She was lying in the room next to me, and I normally wouldn’t care much; this isn’t the first person that Mother decided she wanted to ‘save’ that slept in that room. But it was the first person who openly killed someone. The Xiomara I knew was a tough girl. I would give her that. No, she wasn’t a coward despite what Xavier and Gideon say. Especially that delicious detail of her taking a life. Not any life but the life of her abusive father. I wanted to pick her brain, but would she allow…-

“Did you put away the crystals for the mineral show on Saturday?” Mother asked as she stirred the stew in the pot over the stove. “Yes,” I said. I was sitting at the kitchen table working on the most interesting book about the correspondence of poisonous herbs in healing. Opium, for example, was an incredibly adaptive plant. For physical medicine, patients were given in small doses to alleviate pain, but giving too much, would stop the patient's breathing. Now, if you get the fire element's…-
