Cursed Fates (Zodiac Academy, #5)

by Caroline Peckham

“Where were you?!” I snarled, shoving him in the chest as he pulled Seth to his feet. “We needed you. He needed you.”

About time darcy showed some emotions

“But I would imagine it includes the time I almost drowned her, when I burned her clothes off in front of my entire House, when I shoved her in the mud and called her a whore, when I took part in that whole Halloween fiasco where we tried to destroy her reputation and a thousand other things besides.”

I know thats right

He snorted a laugh at me as he backed up. “I’ll treasure it always. Goodnight, Tory.”

Orion bores me a bit but im starting to like him more

“I need to know if you meant it. What you said to me when the stars called us together. If you really did regret the things-” Lightning slammed into the sand a few meters away from us and Roxy screamed as she jumped back.

The stars said HELL no we gave yall a chance

“How the hell am I supposed to do that?” I demanded. “You’ve seen the way she looks at me. She hates me.”

FIGHT FOR HER DARIUS YOU LAZY ASS

“Of course I felt a pull towards Roxanya, but I knew in my heart that she’d never make a suitable wife for a Celestial Councillor.

This annoys me. This is why i dont like Darius. Like bro for once stop talking shit and actually do something for Tory and not yourself. For ONCE choose her over the throne.

“I didn’t say a single one of those words,” he growled, his eyes burning with a raw kind of anger. “I’ve already sent my legal team after that reporter and I’m having that article taken down and a retraction printed.”

Ok…i take back what i just said LOL so sorry Darius

“Fuck the stars too, Darius,” I breathed and his muscles tightened around me as he held me close. “Fuck every shining, gleaming one of them.”

GET YO GIRL DARIUS. I love Darcy comforting Darius. Cmon Darius go get Tory so the four of you can be happy and bffs!!

Darius Acrux: @Margurite Helebor, I wouldn’t fuck you again if you were the last Fae in Solaria and my dick would fall off if I didn’t. Don’t talk shit about my Mate. One more word and I’ll destroy you #trymebitch

Ive been waiting FOUR BOOKS FOR HIM TO SAY THINGS LIKE THIS

Lance: Well it’s difficult not to get distracted. I’ve got my eye on a beautiful Cardinal Magic hardback with a leather bookmark pushed between its supple pages. Is it cheating if I stick the tip in?

LOL

“You set off that alarm, didn’t you?” I said in realisation and he forced me harder against the trolley that was jammed against the wall, his breath burning hot on my ear.

Ugh. I was ready for some fighting and action

He sighed, rubbing his thumb across the mark until it was gone then reaching out to heal the little puncture wounds on my throat. “One day, Blue, I’m gonna wear your teeth marks wherever I go.”

Is darcy going to turn into a vampire like bella? This book wants to be twilight so bad

Clara stood on a hill in a blood red dress with Lionel at her side in a black cloak. Around them stood hundreds upon hundreds of Nymphs in their monstrous forms, all the way down the hill, their heads bowed, a low and raspy chant leaving them, dragging its way through my ears.

Bitches

Not unless we stopped Lionel Acrux from taking the throne.

I want Lionel dead so bad

“What are you doing?” I asked, my voice breathy from the game already. “I don’t know if I want to-” “Come on, Roxy,” Darius whispered in my ear and a shiver ran down my spine as my guess was proved right. “Show us what you’re made of.”

Ok…i thoughg darius gets angry when caleb even talks about tory, yet he's ok with a threesome?

Tory shrugged in answer, a smile playing around her mouth and he leaned forward and wrapped the ribbon around her throat and tied it in place. “They’re normally worn on the wrist,” Geraldine whispered to me overly loudly. “This is most romantic.”

I just picture him choking her

And now I had it, I was determined for this love to be my one and only. My last and everlasting.

Theory-Orion will imprint on someone else and will have to fight against the stars

“Professor Lance Orion, you are hereby detained by the Court of Solaria for fraternising with a student who is none other than a Princess of Solaria.”

Fuckkk

I ran forward, desperate to try and stop this, but a shadow fell out of the sky and Gabriel landed in front of me with anxiety in his eyes. He pressed a hand to my shoulder with an intense look. “You have to stay here, it will only make things worse otherwise.”

Gabriel did it...he can see the future and be didng warn them? Snake!!

Even after everything I’d talked through with Kipling, nothing he’d suggested outright fixed this shitshow. Nothing I said on the stand was going to make it go away.

Say he was given a lust potion or something and couldnt control his actions…i shoukd be a lawyer im better than kipling

Six years. I’d be thirty two. Blue would have long since graduated. She would have moved on from me. From us.

Predicgion: he is gonna imprint on darcy at the trial

“Your honour, I’d like to call my next witness to the stand,” Whitclaw announced and Darkice inclined his head. “Miss Kylie Major.”

I knew it was this bitch

“So you admit that you cast Dark Coercion on Gwendalina Vega, Princess of Solaria? A girl who is protected by the highest of royal laws?”

Darcy here is where you say dark coersion doesnt work on u bc ur phoenix.…use your brain!

“I’d take death over life without you,” he breathed, his voice rough and broken by fear.

Omg my heart

“Leave,” he growled. “And don’t come back. It’s over, Darcy. Move on with your life.”

So he hugs darius and tells him he misses him and then treats darcy like this!? Fuck orion!!

“Nobody fucks with my girl and gets away with it,” he growled, his lips brushing my ear for a moment and making me shiver.

Ohhhhkay darius

“Aren’t you going to punish Tory for using her Atlas in class?”

Stfu kylie ur so annoying

“Why should we have to listen to the stars?” I asked, raising my voice to be heard over the rain.

I literally can picture this scene in my head so perfectly...its giving the notebook

Today was the last day Lionel Acrux would hurt someone I loved. I’d been born to rule. And I was going to claim my place in blood.

Yes Darius kill yo daddy!!

A boy who couldn’t possibly be lying in the place of that Nymph. “Diego?” I gasped,

Didnt see that coming!!

“Roxanya Vega,” Father growled, looking down at her as a dark smile pulled at his lips. “You will guard my life at the detriment of your own life. Nothing will ever be more important to you than that-”

OMFG NOOOOO WTF
