In The Dark1111

Mothers were supposed to love unconditionally. Mine didn't. In fact, she tried to kill me on my thirteenth birthday, when she saw just how different I was. My dad saved my life that night. He also took her away on an extended vacation, leaving me with an ever-absent uncle. Five years later, solitude was something I lived by. I had to because I was different and people tended not to cope well with the unusual. In fact, they hated me for it, were even scared of me because of it. I thought I was meant to live alone, until Isaac Grey took notice of me. He changed my life, taught me I wasn't the only one who was different, and I didn't need to be alone. But with love comes sacrifice and then pain. Could I ever escape living in the dark?

Chapter Forty-Seven: We Belong Together

Later that night, Isaac didn't go to Boozers. Instead, while Jack, my dad, along with Adan and a few others of Isaac's people questioned Ty's team, Isaac came with me to my room. He sat on one side of the bed and I sat on the other. I'd just told him everything Kalvin had said to me and the kiss we'd shared. His eyes flashed with fury, but it went quickly. After all, my mind hadn't really been my own. Sure, I had an attraction toward Kalvin, but everything inside of me knew Kalvin wasn't the one for me.

No one outshone Isaac.

Instead of speaking of it, I wasn't sure why, but he seemed to want to change the whole subject.

"I think your father finally approves of my being around you." He smiled.

Laughing, I said, "I think so, too."

Isaac sighed, his smile turning sad. "Will we ever get back to what we had been before?"

Gazing down at my bedspread, I shrugged.

"Do you think me a monster after what I did to Kalvin?" he whispered.
