For you. Taking care of the truck. Don’t go anywhere. -Seb.
A music box.
Except this one isn’t like the one from Anastasia. This one is a carousel, complete with tiny horses. Turning it over, I find the little silver winder and twist. The pretty tune fills the room, and I cover my mouth wit...

Every summer comes to an end. Does that mean we shouldn’t enjoy the sun?
“I’ll make you a deal,” I say, unbuckling my jeans.
“What’s that?” she breathes, using her feet to push my pants down before her hands move around to squeeze my ass.
“I’ll be your boyfriend for as long as I can,” I say into her neck. As long as I’m alive, is what I don’t say, ...

Sebastian presses his lips to mine, kissing the top one, then the bottom before his tongue sweeps inside. I grab a fist full of his shirt, returning his kiss until we both pull away breathless.
“I love you,” I say, peering up into those green eyes. He squeezes them shut, like it’s painful to hear the words, before pulling me into his chest. I don’t know why I said it, other than I felt it and I couldn’t keep it in any longer.
I love this flawed, beautiful, maybe-cursed McAllister boy. And even though he doesn’t say it with wo...

I don’t believe in curses, but you’d be surprised at how much you fear something being taken from you when you love it so deeply.
THEY SAY YOU FEEL THE most alive when you’re closest to death.
But that isn’t true. The times I’ve felt most alive weren’t spent in the globe defying gravity or even looking into Evan’s eyes as I bled out. It was the nights spent in my bunk with her wrapped around me. The nights I spent inside her, knowing I’d never be able to keep anything that pure, hell-bent on getting my fill for as long as I could.
But that was selfish. Because look at us now. I always knew my life would end like this. Evan was the o...

I’d give anything to keep you.
I think I say the words out loud, but I can’t be sure.
No. I don’t feel alive. I’ve never felt more dead than the moment Evan’s ey...

October 12th-two years later 11:59 P.M.
THAT DAY WILL FOREVER GO down as the worst night of my life. The day I realized I was wrong and the curse was real—that Sebastian was right all along. That day, I felt the absolute horror of losing the person I love most and being completely helpless to do anything to stop it. Hope died right along with my heart, and I cursed the stars for cursing Sebastian.
That day was the worst day of my life, but it was also the best, because it was the day Sebastian survived. Against all odds, he fought to live. He fought to stay here. And I knew I’d fight to keep him every day after.
“I’m here,” Sebastian says, pulling my face away from his chest, his thumbs wiping away my tears. “I’m here.”
We rewrote the stars. We made our own fate. We met two thousand miles from home, only to run in to each other again a year later. And a year after that. It wasn’t the carnival I was drawn to. It was Sebastian. That wasn’t a coincidence. If anything, that was fate.
“Baby,” I rasp into Evan’s ear, lowering my body onto hers. She’s lying facedown in her short, silk nightdress. You can take the girl away from her castle, but you can’t take the princess out of the girl. I lift her dress, feeling the warmth of her ass against me. She moans a sleepy sound, and I’m already hard.
Evan flips over beneath me, peering up at me with lines on her face from the pillow. I pull my cock out of my boxers, guiding myself to her opening. She moans again, arching her back as I slide inside her wet heat. I lock our fingers together, sliding our hands above her head, giving her hand three squeezes as I thrust into her.
“I love you, too,” she...

I don’t know what I did to deserve Evan, but I’ll fight until death to keep her.
Turns out, she wasn’t the casualty after all. She was the cure.
