“Mayra?” he calls again. “Tell me what’s wrong, tell me how I can help you”“I-it’s R-Raya” I manage to stammer through clenched.He picks me up and holds me in his arms. I try to push Raya back but it’s difficult. Part me thinks she’s been doing this more on purpose. To weaken me so when the time i

I wake up feeling like I’ve been run over by a truck. I was exhausted and felt like my limbs were noodles. Immediately I feel the cold bed and know that Darren isn’t next to me.Slowly opening my eyes, I take my time to recount everything that happened yesterday. I sigh when I remember Raya clawing

I laugh at the excitement in Iris’s voice and face. This is one of the things I love about her. The fact that she takes pleasure in small things. Things that most people would take for granted.“Okay, then I’ll let you guys get to it while I take my breakfast”They nod but it’s distracted. They're b

He lets out a breath.“I had my doubts since yesterday. It's weird honestly. He was mated to my fated and now I’m the one mated to his fated”“You mean Ren? She was your fated? I never knew that” I say slowly.It was weird.“No. Ren was my chosen. My fated was Miranda. We met when we were eighteen.

Darren.I’ve been in a kind of a funk these past few days. Since I told Mayra the truth I can’t help feeling that she pulled away from me. That she was keeping her distance. I felt like I was losing her and I didn’t know what to do.I thought that honesty was the best policy. She would have found ou

“Ah. Now the weird looks and tension between you two made sense. I’m going to be honest Darren, you were a douchebag. An asshole of all proportions. I have other few choice words I can call you”I wince at that. “Don’t hold back or anything”He holds his hand up and silences me. “You were a bastard

Mayra.I look at the man that has haunted my dreams for fifteen years. I feel the familiar fear that I used to rush through me. My bones lock and my heart constrict. I’m no longer in the room with him and Alice. Instead I’m back in the lab. Back to those times when he drugged and raped me.“How?” I

I’ve never wanted to hit anyone like I did right now. The guy was fucked up in the head and it showed. He actually believed that I would shed a tear if he died. Believed that I cared for him and that I felt the same. It was disturbing.“I waited until everyone left. I don’t even know how no one noti
