Vagabond

by Mary A.J.

I tangled my fingers in Alexander’s brown hair, begging for more. He gave it to me by opening his mouth and colliding his tongue with mine. God, that felt so good. We were in the crypt once again.

Dude right after????? Ugh I hate this character

But when I opened my eyes, I was no longer in the crypt with Alexander. I was underneath a tree, the middle ground between Cornelia High and King’s Tavern. Our tree. Our spot.

This is so sickkkk 🥴

Let’s get something to drink,” Nathaniel said. “I’ll text them our location.” I agreed, like a glutton.

It’s gluttonous to want a drink?

“You and Nox?” I scowled at him and threw the balled up receipt on his face. So much for not wanting to pry. “No.”

… he says he loves you…. And y’all kiss…. How are you not an item

stood and removed my coat. My pocket watch was on one of the outer pockets, but I concluded it was safe here. What’s the worst that could happen?

Oh no, I wonder what’s going to happen to the watch 😱

“You and Draven seem to be getting along,” she whispered.

I— what??? She spends all her time with Sebastian

Inside the box was a mood ring, with a list explaining what the colors meant. When I saw it at a vintage store, I knew it was designed for him.

What a great Christmas gift 😐😐😐

chess set for Thomas.

I don’t even remember who Thomas is

The second one had his name, date of birth, and place of birth.

How does she know that info lmao

My days of impulsiveness were long gone.

You’re the one who’s playing two guys on a whim

I resisted the urge to stick my tongue out. Why must he always bring out the child in me?

1. This is the third time you’ve said this line 2. BECAUSE YOURE CHILDISH

This. This feels true. This feels good. This feels right.

You say this same crap about Seb

“Choose me.” I said, using his words against him—the words he’d used when we fought in the catacomb.

YOURE SO SELFISH SND HYPOCRITICAL YOURE PLAYING TWO GUYS

I could see the struggle on his face, between what he thought he wanted, and what he needed.

My guy you don’t know what he wants or needs

And because of it, Louis had transformed into a demon. If the legend was true, the artifact was my pocket watch. That opened up a can of worms.

I did NOT put that together, this is such BS

I alone was responsible for turning Louis Crowe, one of Alexander’s kindest friends, into a demon. How much more of a monster could I be?

Drop the self pity, you didn’t know

He placed a sweet, chaste kiss on my lips. “I love you.” “I love you, too.”

B freaking S

I did feel something for Alexander, but it paled in comparison to what I felt for Sebastian. My soul called for him as if he was the missing piece I’d been looking for in all the years I’d run from my father.

Then it’s not love

Sebastian was, and always would be, the love of my life.

Ugh I hate her sm

If I let myself revert to the old me. But would the princess even fight them? I would get so lost inside her that all I’d want to do would be to storm Cornelia as well.

No self control

I could tell Sebastian felt so helpless…so weak…so human.

So you haven’t changed at all

a heartwarming second, I forgot we were on a battlefield. I kissed him and flew back near the forest.

You’re so dumb

I laughed. No, the monster laughed. It possessed me.

No accountability

Who

You can expect nothing from them. They will hate you simply because of the blood running through your veins.

Um, no, because yOU WERE EVIL WTF

You’re just going to take his word not hers? He doesn’t make the decisions for her

With her arms raised, the Wren Building turned to rubble, causing the ground to shake. Even from afar, I saw the twins gasp.

So there were people in that building that just died right? We’re not gonna say anything about it?

Four beings gracefully landed, their white wings hovering. A wave of peace and tranquility encompassed us,

LITERALLY deus ex machina WTF IS THIS

I’d only been fighting with superficial magic, for if I fought like the Princess of Hell, I didn’t know if I could ever come back.

Dude you just did

Somewhere, deep within, I was struggling to remember something. A memory of my past I had long forgotten. The way this blond angel was staring at me, it was…familiar. But

Soooo obvious

“Who are those newcomers?” Louis hissed. I glanced at him. “Why do you ask?” “It’s kind of odd that I don’t know them, but I have this unyielding hate toward them.”

This is so dumb

He drew his eyebrows drew.

Lol what

demon that was once pure and virtuous. Once human. Henry.

Oh yeah
