I Want You
   I yawn and peer outside the frosted windows, gazing upon the empty landscape, whispering its secrets into the air.           Placing my pale hands upon the window, its freezing touch burns my fingers and jerks them away, betrayed by its beauty. I place my fingers on my tinted crimson red lips, and scowl, letting the tundra outside keep its secrets.          Nothing is left inside the carriage to keep me busy.  I’ve braided my long black hair, undone it, then re-braided it, fidgeting about in the back, settling even deeper into my large, white, fur coat, and I decided it's time to say something.

Compromise
     A sea of honeyed fire comes down my throat but my hunger isn’t filled, my meal is interrupted when The Ray bites down hard onto my tongue.          I shriek and push him away, tricked by the sweet smells of the monster.          “You bit me!”          “You kissed me!”          “That was not what I would call

Cursed Blood
Seth stares at me with his burning gaze while his lips linger on my hand and he smiles. He kisses it again, making a show, and all my demeanor is lost when his gaze never leaves mine. It’s a staring match and I refused to lose, so I stared back. We were making a scene, or maybe it was only I that was imagining it all. The lords and ladies of the estate all twittered like robins around us and now my entrance isn’t as grand as I imagined it to be. I am in a filthy coat, my shoes are worn, as is my dress, and my hair is a bird’s nest. I want to sink into the muddy ground and become one with the worms when my future mother-in-law arrives at the outer gates. She needs no introduction because everyone stops twittering when she arrives.  Seth draws me closer to his sid

Take Your Medicine
I can't see but the floor feels colder, the air smells sharper, and I can hear the heartbeat of every beast in the forest.They are all trying to keep me alive, this is what my mind is telling me. All the sounds around me become lounder, the cacophony coalescing into a singular sound and I can see it. There is nothing else around me but the source.It's a long and winding whisp, a red breeze. It wraps around my finger, gently, crawling up my arm, breathing into my heart, filling up my head. It tightens on my ring finger, and I reach out to grab it. It pulls me, hard, and I cry out, shocked that the pain is real and not imagined.Bright colors rush back to me and I grab onto the first thing I see, and it is Imperator Seth.I know it is him before I see him by the smell of his sweet cologne, and when my eyes flit up from the floor, to see his mouth pierce my skin.He looks me in the eyes when he does it, with his orange-ember iris, burn

That Kind of Girl
Dante doesn't want to leave me and a part of me wants him to stay. It is almost sunrise and I can't sleep after my brush with death. On the side table next to the bed are little appetizers and candies, my favorite sweets. Cow livers. I stick a fork in them and suck the blood out, slowly turning them grey, but their blood is nothing close to Ray's. Nothing compares to Ray. I think about him, after eating my treats and sitting on the canopy bed. I pull a thin, golden cord, closing the drapes, enveloping me in the dark. I can hear Dante, in the next room over, shuffling about and I wish for once he would break his vow and leave. I can't sneak out until he sleeps. I want some Ray. I've been planning to get more of him ever since I returned to my chambers, staring at their lovely red walls, the same color as sweet crimson honey. I bathed, acting as if I were to sleep, putting my change of clothes
