Oh my stars I just said ‘all the holes’ in front of my mother.
Leon Night: HAHAHAHAHA Orion is buried in Gabe’s #cocklocks
“Let me choose my fate. If I’m to be ruined, then so be it, but let me be happy in my fucking destruction,”
“Oh shit,” Tory gasped. “Is he drunk?” Cal laughed.
“He’s walking straight, I think he’s sober,” Darius chuckled and Seth continued to tug on my sleeve, but I jerked my arm to stop him.
“Your one true love and shameful Vampire is here making quite the hullabaloo!”
“I can’t sing, or dance, or write poetry so I’m just gonna shout this really, really fucking loud,” Orion announced, looking right at me with a smirk on his lips.
“I am in love with Darcy Vega, heir to the throne of Solaria, daughter of the Savage King – who by the way was tricked by Lionel Acrux into being an evil sonuvabitch. And I know you all think I’m a complete waste of oxygen.”
I.O.U. One kiss anywhere you like.
“I’ll love you even beyond then,” I answered and our lips collided as we accepted this bond and a ripple of power blazed through my body as the stars threaded our souls together.
“Fly hard and fast and don’t waste time being subtle.”
Gabriel swooped over on his wings, landing behind Xavier and leaning down to speak in his ear. “You still owe me, kid, so I will make the dare, and you will pull it off.”
“Marry me, Roxy,” I said, knowing it was unfair of me to ask but doing it all the same. Because there were a lot of things I wasn’t going to get to do with my life now but I didn’t want to miss out on that.
“Stay with me, Darius,” she replied, asking me to do the one thing I was almost certain I couldn’t.
“Then I’ll marry you,” she replied. “No bullshit. Just us.”
“Are you going to become a Vega or what?”
“Oh no. I know how it works here. The couple takes the name of the most powerful Fae in the relationship. And that would be me in this scenario.”
“Fuck I love it when you talk like a psychopath,” I said.
“Your father worked so hard to make you into a mirror image of the man he was but despite all of the odds set against you, you fought off the weight of his influence and grew into your own man. A man who could win back your heart from the clutches of the stars themselves. A man who is worthy of the love of that girl out there.”
“I have loved you all like family from the day that I was born,” I said firmly. “No matter how this plays out, know that.”
Goodbye, shadow bitch.
“Tonight, you die, asshole.”
“It has been an honour fighting for the true queens this day,”
“What now? The sky is falling too?”
“I have loved you unconditionally from the moment I first found out I was having you. You are my starlit boy, my light in the dark and I am so endlessly proud of the man you have become, my love,”
“Live brave and true, my sweetest girl,” Hamish said gruffly,
“Into the evermore we go, my love,” he breathed.
“White knights just don’t do it for me, Justin. But thanks and all that jazz. If I die, tell them I went out like a badass.”
“I am the daughter of the Savage King!” I roared, hefting my sword back and looking into his blood red eyes. “And I have come for my pound of flesh!”
Tears pricked the backs of my eyes as I shook my head, refusing to accept this, leaning down to press a kiss to his unresponsive lips, the coldness in him sinking into my skin too and whispering goodbye on the wings of fate.
I looked up at the heartless sky with a curse on my lips and slit the blade deeper into my flesh, knowing that it would scar and welcoming the pain as I dropped the weapon and held my fist up to the stars for them to see the mixture of my mate’s blood and my own running down my arm.
When all hope is lost, and the darkest night descends, remember the promises that bind. When the dove bleeds for love, the shadow will meet the warrior. A hound will bay for vengeance where the rift drinks deep. One chance awaits. The king may fall on the day the Hydra bellows in a spiteful palace.
