That when something is on my mind, I should express myself. You’ve always been such ...
Her fleeting,
warm touch is always too far for me to grasp.
Like awoken from a splendid dream.
I can practically smell her perfume,
roses and vanilla.
The comforting scent always put me at ease.

But the injuries were too great. Too much blood spilled.
Now she’s dead. And it’s all my fault.
Dahlia and I shared the stage at the theater downtown. God, was she talented. Always securing the leading role, embodying each character with effortless grace and a radiant smile. Her tanned skin and curly blonde hair, a beautiful chaos, ...
“Ugh! ‘Please remember…’ But remember what? What’s happening?!” Harper throws her dagger, watching it slice mid-blade.
Two days since that boy broke in. Two days since she started to recall the night she woke up, yet the elusive details slip away each time she reaches for them.
She shudders, closing her eyes as her voice screams in her mind, the icy touch of chains wrapping around her limbs. May...

**THUD!**
Harper jolts awake, nearly tumbling from her tangled bedsheets. The dark shadows in her spacious room twist into unsettling shapes. Grabbing the cool blade hidden under her pillow, she prepares for anything. As the daughter of the most hated general in history, caution is essential.

wrapping their fingers around my wrist and gently drag me along.
They lead me down a winding path filled with thorns and wild beasts,

“Who. Are. You?” He hisses.
Those were the hardest theee words to hear in my life.
Becuase really! Who am I?
I’ve tried so many times to blend in and fit into society—to fit into my kingdom, all for nothing.
