"And I thought maybe I can help distract from whatever is making you so nervous. Are you like this all the time or is it just me?" he continues.

"Do I mean nothing to you?!" He spat out the words, his voice laced with fury. "What are you talking about?" I strained against his iron grip, my cheeks flushing with the exertion to escape him. He remained seated atop me, swiftly snatching the joint from my grasp. After taking a drag, he blew the smoke in my face before leaning down to kiss me again, his hands firmly on my wrists. My resistance began to weaken, the pleasure of his lips on mine dissolving my determination. Sensing my surrender, his grip eased as I reciprocated the kiss. He leaned into me, his lips hungry and hands ready, as if expecting my defiance to resurface at any moment. Eventually, he pulled back, his hands still clasping my wrists. I lay there, my heart racing with a mix of irritation and bewilderment.

"Breathe." He dipped his head down so that his lips were right at my ear, his strong arm wrapped securely around my waist, molding my body into his. "If you're going to fall apart,." He starts, teeth gritted. "Now's the time. I'll be here to put you back together when it's over." I squeezed my eyes shut again, and I did just that. I fell apart. ******* Secrets. Lies. Deception. Murder. I'd seen and done it all. And not willingly. So I left. I sacrificed my freedom to save myself, and the only way to ensure my own safety was to start over. Clean slate. New people. New me. But the last thing I expected when I arrived at Manonwell Prep Academy was to be bombarded by a boy-no, a man who held some unknown vendetta against me. Call it obsession, infatuation, hatred. To me it was all one in the same. He was everywhere I turned, like a shadow. Watching me. Taunting me. Haunting me. And it was all because of something I did to him a long time ago. It was something so bad that he couldn't stand me, that he wanted me dead, and the idea of making my life a living hell was something that he took pride in. But I didn't remember. I had no clue what I could've done to him in the past, but he was hellbent on pushing me until I did. My plans on starting over were shattered the minute I stepped inside that school. He was the type of person that demanded your attention without having to speak. He was untamed and wild and unhinged. But what he didn't know was that the Winter Travers that he knew in past, the one I didn't remember, was no longer alive. I was different. She was gone and I was here. And he was everything I should've been afraid of. Sinister, quiet, manipulative, but I knew it would be a cold day in hell before I let him win. Ronan was like gasoline waiting to be doused on the fire that inside me, and if he was ready to burn, then so was I.

"I'm not a kid," I spat back as I glared at him. "Whatever," he said as he turned, his massive frame not even a little scared of me nor my knife. For some reason beyond my comprehension, I felt the smallest of tugs in my gut as I saw him walk away. Everything told me to run while he had his back to me, maybe try and get back to the club and just wait till morning to go home. And yet.... "Hey!" I still called out to him. "Hm?" he asked, his head turned slightly but his feet still carried him away from me. "W-who are you?" *** Seven years ago, Elijah made a mistake.

Domick slid into the seat next to me and looked over. "Did you see how he was looking at you?" What? "H-he's not even my friend, just a partner sometimes." I managed to stammer out. "Trust me, he wanted to be more than just a partner." Domick sneered the last word. A surprised laugh escaped me, and I leaned towards him to whisper, "What makes you think that." "Because I notice when someone wants what's mine." ----------------------------- After I blew out my candles on my 7th birthday, I started to see things no one else could. Wings. I know, crazy right?
