Who taught you this? To want what does not want you?
Emmett Easton is as unpredictable as he is gorgeous.
Hes silent. Ruthless. Calculated. And not mine.
Ive made it a point to forget him and let him go, meanwhile hes made it a mission to worsen my wounds.
Now Im begging myself not to fall completely apart.
The same way Ive silently begged for his heartbeats to stay intact for me.
But theres a truth to unrequited love that we never face.
What doesnt want you has the power to own you.
Ivy Irving is everyones cheerleader.
But shes fake. Deceptive. And a glutton for punishment.
She unexpectedly became a crucial part of a plan. But letting her mess me up was never part of it.
She hates me now, but I dont care.
I estimate that I have about four seasons left, and Ill spend each one inflating that hate.
Maybe letting her go will be easier that way.
But when she looks at me, she shatters all common sense and rationality.
Its time to take the poison and sever the ties.
Poison Aches is Emmett Ivys story from the Westbrook Blues series. It can be read as its own story but I highly recommend following the series for better understanding of this world.
