I met him on a Tuesday.

I’d write you a love song,

if that were my thing.

If I could, for you,

I would even sing

only for you to hear,

the words written for your ears.

I’d write you a romance,

with characters, based on us.

Baby, the Sun and moon

weren’t made beautiful by luck,

they made each other’s trai...

_“I should have known that meeting them would lead to something like this.”_

I thought it the second I saw the police lights flickering against the walls of my bedroom, painting everything in a horrible, guilty glow. My heart pounded, my stomach twisted, and every memory of them came rushing back like a flood I never asked for.

It wasn’t supposed to be like this.

to wish you

were mine,

when you are happy

‘ I should have known that meeting you would lead you to escape ‘

You were bizarre since the first glance i gave you .

My mother told me you were a mistake that time had done on me , i let her words go with the wind .

I was so new to the taste of you , you seemed exotic now just toxic .

Should I cry or celebrate? You tell me

Have you ever thought of the damage you would cause me ? Not. A. Ch...

As Lucian descended into the grand hall of the vampire conclave, the murmurs of the councilors ceased, and all eyes turned to the young prince. His mother, the Queen, sat upon her throne, her expression a mixture of regal elegance and sharp concern. The conclave began to discuss Lucian's punishment for crossing the border, their voices weaving a tapestry of reprimand and censure.

Lucian's defense...

“You should have known that meeting him would lead to this.” He laughed as Rio dropped to the ground lifeless, blood oozing from his forehead.

Sarah attempted to pull her arm free, instead slipping in the blood, her left heel flinging off.

“We need to write down as many details as possible from our stories,” Brielle commands, taking charge because someone has to. And none of them are stepping up.

I watched the flame of ember melt my skin as the blood from my knife tripled down my body.

1… 2… 3… 4…

I pulled the lighter away and stare at mark it left. I ignite the flames again and put it back to my skin.

1… 2… 3… 4…

As a child, he’d chastise me for playing while he swept the floor, saying if I don’t move, I’m gonna gain bad luck.
