"Love and Thunder?" Jackson's appellation is evident in the exclamation he lets out. "This is the movie that you want to see?" I blush. "What? It's a good movie. Romance and sci-fi with hints of fantasy." I sigh. "It's such a beautiful combination." "I didn't mean it in a bad way," Jackson backtracks. "I like Henry Spellbound's movies too. I just didn't expect you to be a sci-fi fanatic." He loops his arm around my shoulders as we walk into the movie theater. "Did you watch the… -
"I'm going to kill the fucker when I find him," Oscar growls. He sifts through the papers in front of him vigorously and almost rips through the thin sheets. Through his anger, I can see blue claws pushing from under his fingertips. Fury doesn't even begin to describe his mood at the moment, but I'm not sure if I can describe it at all. My mind is equally as numb as his is, except Oscar is full of anger; I'm suffocated by disbelief. "Maybe we should take a break?" I suggest a little weakly. "We've been…

"Look out! "What?" I duck, just narrowly missing the large wooden pole that swings above me. "Be careful, please!" "Sorry, Luna," a few sheepish men mutter as they walk past me. Over their shoulders they carry prickly long, brown cylindrical trunks and pause by the spot that I'm standing. They drop the trunks down and pull out the old wood that holds together the octagon pavilion. While some of the men pull the poles, another bunch puts the new ones in. They take out their saws and begin to clean the…

Jackson's quiet for a long time. It's the kind of quiet that makes you realize just how deep in the sand you've dug yourself in, or when you discover that your mom has found all the report cards that you hid from her. It's that stomach churning, ear-deafening, silence that creeps along your spine and wraps like a snake around you, pushing your organs up your throat with its tail. "I would like to believe that I'm going blind," he says through clenched teeth, his blazing eyes digging into me. I look…

"It's devastating, isn't it?" Bea comments sadly. She stirs her tea delicately, like the British actors in movies do - with a silver spoon and glass teacup. "Yes, it is," I say quietly. I stir my tea too, but my stirring isn't as delicate as Bea's is. My stirring is more rough and quick. I guess it's just an old habit. I had to stir quickly to Alpha Banastre, Amanda, and Darcy, back in my old pack. "They were so young," she continues, and I don't think she's very good at gauging someone's mood based…

I haven't kissed a lot of guys in my life. My first kiss was at fifteen, with some stupid frat boy that I agreed to dance with at my school dance. It wasn't bad. He was a rough kisser, and our movement was a little awkward, but it was a nice kiss nonetheless. But Jackson...Jackson is an amazing kisser. The way his mouth moves against mine makes me forget where I am. It makes me forget what he told me moments ago. It makes me forget that I'm even standing, which isn't a good thing, but as…

"I don't understand this," I say. The locket feels heavy in my hands, like a weight is strapped to my wrists. "There isn't much to understand about it," Jackson looks down at me as he dries his hair with a damp towel. "It's yours, isn't it? Oscar was just returning it to you." "Yes, but..." I hesitate. Something about the necklace just feels...wrong. I have vague memories of my mother wearing the locket, but why would Luna Hailey have it? If anything, I had assumed that my old Alpha had sold it after…

"You can't be serious!" Jackson exclaims. "Serious about what?" I'm sitting on the couch across from him paging through a book, and when I look up he's glaring at the TV screen with his hands outstretched. "The game!" He says. "Corda almost had a goal and that other guy tripped him! And they didn't catch that!" "What...?" I look at the TV and try to follow the players as they race across the field, but I barely understand how soccer works, so I only nod and hum in agreement. I'm not sure who Corda…
