Concentrate.
I pushed the sounds of the room to the back of my mind. The acrid smell of flesh burning filled my nose. I gagged. Oh gosh, who was burning—?
Stop it! Concentrate!
I ignored the smell; ignored the sound of people shouting and the crackle of fire and the sharp sent of smoke. 
Breathe.
I did, choking when smoke filled my lungs. I inhaled until I couldn’t take in any more air and then I held it as if letting it out might make things worse.
Exhale.
The breath whooshed from my lungs, expelling the heat that blistered the air. 
And relax. 
I didn’t—couldn’t. Rage still lived somewhere in me and I couldn’t let it go. It hurt. God, why does it hurt?

Forced into a world that is not her own, Ashlia struggles with a rage that threatens to consume her from the inside out. Haunted by her past and chased by her future and barely controlling her unnatural powers, she tries to hide her resent for the life she now lives, and her fear of losing herself. But when her new-found-brother's business partner discovers her struggle, he vows to help her, no matter the danger his decision may bring him. He struggles to regain Ashlia's trust, and Ashlia struggles to keep him at bay -- because she knows what is to come if she allows him close again.

Andrea said looking at my hand I looked down to see my entire hand turned red with blisters everywhere. I felt numb earlier but now as I saw my wound I started feeling the suppressed pain I was controlling. My tears betrayed me not just because of his words but also from the pain of my burn.

His fingers brushed through my hair, his lips against mine. Moving slowly, but fast. His body pressed against mine. The wall behind us felt hard against my back. Suddenly, his hands disappeared and his lips parted from mine. He took a step back. "Fuck Evie" he growls, walking to the other side of the bedroom. "What?" I breathed out, trying to catch my breath. My stomach felt like it was filled with butterflies, but they were trying to escape through my throat. "I just... why do you have to be..." he started, hesitating trying to find the right words. He was brushing his neck walking back and forth. "What, what am I?" I demanded an answer. "Why do you have to be my little sister's friend?" He finally shouts. "We can't do this. It's against the rules! We are like poisonous fruits for eachother" he speaks fast with a low tone. He's angry. "Don't you get that I know that? Sof is going to kill me if she ever finds out! But it shouldn't be wrong for two people to be attracted to eachother. Don't you feel the tension everytime we are in the same room? I can barely breathe when you walk past me. My head is a mess when I think of you. It's normal!" I burst out. He sits down on the bed, burying his face in his hands. With tears falling my cheeks, I run out of the room. My head spins. The alcohol has taken over my bloodveins. While I'm wandering through the hallway, I feel someones hand grabbing mine and it starts to drag me somewhere.

Book #2 They said cages were made to keep things safe. Who the fuck are they kidding? Minghao knew better. His cage wasn't steel bars or some locked door. It was him. Wen Jun fucking hui.of bruising hands and possessive whispers. It was the kind of shit that got under his skin and stayed there, rotting his insides until there was nothing left but need. And that need? It was all because of him. Wen Junhui wasn't just a captor. He was a fucking disease. A sickness that slithered into Minghao's thoughts, his skin, his breath. Every damn part of him. And ohh god, he fucking hated him for it. He hated the way Jun's presence didn't just fill the space around him, it owned it. Like it was his air to breathe, his fucking atmosphere. Every time Jun touched him, it was like his skin was on fire. Every time Jun whispered that voice of his in his ear, Minghao's body fucking melted. Hated how his body reacted, hated how his pulse skipped, hated how his stomach flipped,Hated how his inside twisted. even when he wanted to shove him off. When Jun whispered in his ear, Minghao's body betrayed him. He wanted to scream, to push him away, but instead, he went still. Because it felt too fucking good. "You can scream, fight, do whatever the hell you want," Jun had said to him once, voice low, almost tender as his hands held Minghao against him like he had all the right to. "In the end, you'll still be in my bed. Under me. Begging for everything you swore you'd never want." Minghao had spit on his face. Had cursed him, told him he was a monster. But Jun? He just smirked. Like he knew something Minghao didn't. And maybe he did. Because no matter how hard Minghao fought, no matter how many times he tried to escape, he was still here. Still trapped. And that truth, that fucking reality, made him want to tear his own skin off. Escape? Nah. Not a chance. Jun never lost what was his. And Minghao? He was already fucking owned

"I have no reason for staying here then. I'm not going to put myself in your so-called missions. Let me go back to my country as I have no partake in your operation" I said. Surpassing the beast, I take heavy steps towards the door when he pulls me back by my arm. I was taken aback when he pulled me, losing the balance I stumble on my tracks and with his strong pull I land on his chest. I immediately push myself back when he snakes his arm around my back making me unable to move from his grasp. We were so close now that my front was almost touching his making us look like hugging. He lowers himself and says "If you have a death wish then go ahead. The moment headquarters hear that you're no use to them, they will kill you without sparing a glance at you".

For a moment, she started to have hope that maybe they wouldn't be able to find her, but a voice spoke up, and fear flooded in once again. "You cleared out the upstairs, too, right?" "Yeah."
