“Well, you’re still an asshole, but you’re a good man too.”
“I still own you!”
We’ll see about that when Darius Acrux has a word with you, asshole.
Tory was the strongest person I knew. But deep down, I knew she was breaking. This was one enemy she couldn’t fight, punch or insult.
Alive. Safe. Same old Orion.
Orion was seriously playing Jekyll and Hide today and the smile dancing around his lips said he was enjoying the hell out of it. Asshole that he was, I couldn’t help but love him for being a teensy bit psycho. His idea of fun came with a sadistic little twist. And I was hot for it.
But were the stars really so cruel that she should be punished for the rest of her life because she hadn’t chosen to mate with a guy who’d hurt her in unspeakable ways?

“That was rude,”
“I am rude,”
“You’re important,”
“If you try to fuck me over, kid, I’ll break every bone in your body. And if you try to fuck over the Vegas, I’ll rip out said broken bones one by one, put them in a blender and feed them to you through a straw. I know some nasty fucking spells that will make sure you stay alive through the entire thing. Mark. My. Words.”
I really did think my crazy professor boyfriend would have made Diego drink his own bones in the world’s most messed up milkshake.
Among all of the darkness hanging over us, he was a solid beacon of light I could focus on.
“Lance is off limits,” I snarled. “Which means the girl he loves is off limits too.”
Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
The closest I came was heading down to stand outside her door when everyone else was sleeping and checking that she wasn’t falling into the temptation of the shadows. Unfortunately, she clearly had been using them and I’d already had to press my magic out towards her more than once to pull her back. But she never seemed to realise it was me. Never thought to check beyond her door for whatever she’d latched onto to pull herself out of the shadows. And I was glad. Because if she figured out it was me, she might demand I stop doing it. And there was no way I could just abandon her to the lure of

“Well, at least you don’t have to worry about me hurting you again,”
I couldn’t even be near her without the stars punishing us and the thought of having to keep my distance from her forevermore only poured salt onto the wounds of knowing I could never have her.
the vengeful, spiteful part of me revelled in his pain and screamed that he deserved it, but in the wake of my own heartache, sometimes it was hard to cling to that idea.
“Maybe I don’t want to live with the fact that you’ll never be happy now because of this.”
Maybe her Lady Petunia was a magic vag, designed to lure Siren dick in and then never release it from her spell.
“No Order gifts,” Orion said casually as he wandered past. “We don’t need a deep-fried Heir on our hands.”
“What’s the matter, Darius? Afraid I’ll kick your ass and make you look like a little bitch in front of everyone?”
“Hardly.”
“Then what’s the problem?”
“I don’t want to h...

“I’m okay with you being my weakness, Blue. Because that means my weakness is a badass, hot as fuck Phoenix with enough fire in her veins to rival the sun. So come at me stars, I’m invincible!”
“Hmm, what kind of special device?”
“It’s a long, hard device that lives between my legs. And it likes you a lot,”
“You sure know how to talk your way out of trouble, Professor.”
“I know how to lick my way out of it too, Miss Vega.”
“So, I can be bad so long as I’m being bad with you?”
“Fae can train themselves out of anything,”
“Are you growling, Blue?”
A fallen star, an empty grave, an eternal vow. Seek he who broke it.
“You two are…well, fuck the law for saying you can’t be together,”
