Name: Trisha
Location: um...college? (fictional at this point, I'm out already)
I once held the heart to a white knight boy named Lucas. Although he was sweet and Easy to love, he was just a little too burned and broken for me to make him whole.
So I'm hopeful to find another....

Name Trisha
Location: Atlanta, GA
I had a boyfriend Etienne St. Clair . He swept me off my feet in the land of Paris. We swooned, we loved....but I heard about him and Anna and the French Kiss and there was NO WAY I was sharing him! I left him behind and I'm ready for a new love!
3. Trisha, Chimaera of Love
Trisha

Oh, my Akiva. I know I'm not the top one in his heart, it's all just Dreams of Gods & Monsters. I know the blue haired woman is still in his dreams. I want to let him go
