Blood. A powerful and binding concoction that defines a person yet is spilled over that definition. In some worlds, families fight noble blood against noble blood but in my world, if you do not have wings on your feet, you are not fit to live here. Thankfully, my pads have wings but the only soul I would give my life and honor for has none. My heart beats s...

Five days had passed since my nocturnal visitor broke in. I couldn't stop thinking about the way he'd touched me, manipulated my body, and then left me, only partially satisfied.
