SCARLETT

My heart skipped a beat , my nerves rippled through me as I stared at the man before me .

I could barely recognise him , save his strawberry locks and his features that were a mix of both mine and Elijah’s .

The coldness and darkness that exuded from him made my gut twist , but it was the cold smile on his face that reminded m e of someone long ago .

Someone that I still sometimes had to remind myself was dead .

Someone who would still creep into my mind on an occasional rare night …

Care to share what the fuck is going on ? ” He asked .

” There’s nothing to say .

” Liam said , about to stand up when Raven took hold o f his wrist .

” It’s … There’s a curse ! ” She blurted out .

I raised an eyebrow , trying to make sense of what she’d just said .

” I told you it’s no big deal and that was something you shouldn’t have mentioned ! ” Liam said , glaring at her .

His voice had never been harsher .
