“She totally knew everything,” Thea exclaimed. Persephone was back sleeping in the hidden room, while we gathered in the kitchen. There were seven of us in total, including Lilith and Esme, which made everything feel somewhat crowded....

I've been super stressed lately and haven't had time to write this week. I'm still planning on putting out the normal number of chapters, but they're have to wait for a bit. Hopefully, I'll have an update today or tomorrow!
Thank you for your patience, y'all rock!

I'm very interested in trying to finish book two before the new year. I'm not actually sure if it's possible for me, since there are about four more chapters I have planned, but I'm going to try anyway and see what happens.
IF I can get it done, then I'm planning o...

Explosions rocked the ship and alarms started to blare as the crew panicked. The captain shouted orders to get a medical team to the bridge, and I reached over to scritch behind Sora’s ear before grabbing another fistful of popcorn.
