Madame Loretto's cane tapped against the floor.Tap. Tap. Tap.Ava remained in third position in the center of the studio, arms extended, while the other dancers moved toward the barres along the walls. The afternoon light filtered through tall windows, illuminating dust and the accumulated residue of rosin and sweat. The air tasted like pine and exhaustion.Tap. Tap. Tap."Your landing, Ms. Chen." Madame Loretto didn't raise her voice. Her voice never rose. That was what made it worse. "The fouetté itself was adequate, your extension acceptable. But the landing." She tapped her cane once more against the hardwood. "The landing was imprecise."Ava kept her arms in position. Her muscles were screaming. Lactic acid burned through her calves and thighs, the kind of burn that came from six hours of repetition, six hours of trying to perfect something that still wasn't perfect."Odette does not tolerate imprecision," Madame Loretto said. "You will remember this when you perform the role, i

I fell asleep at my desk again.I knew it even before I fully woke up, the way your neck tells you before your brain catches up, that dull ache spreading from the base of my skull down between my shoulder blades. My cheek was pressed against the corner of a fabric swatch book, and the imprint of it was probably going to stay on my face for the next twenty minutes. I'd knocked over my pencil cup at some point and a dozen colored pencils had rolled across the blueprints I'd been trying to finish since eleven.It was past two in the morning. The loft was quiet except for the hum of the city seven floors below, that low constant sound that Los Angeles never fully turned off, and the desk lamp I'd forgotten to angle away from my eyes was throwing a warm yellow circle across the scattered fabric samples and paint chips and almost empty coffee mug that had been full when I sat down.I didn't move yet.I knew what was waiting in that place just before full waking, the tail end of the dream I'

Project R4 C1-C6Chapter 1 She Couldn't Be PregnantLin Shiyan pushed open the door to the private room and went in. She saw Feng Xingzhi sitting lazily on the sofa, with a young and charming girl nestled softly in his arms.When the girl saw Lin Shiyan walk in, she grabbed a document and threw it at her, saying arrogantly, "I'm three months pregnant, and I've already had the fetal sex determined at the hospital. It's a boy. Lin Shiyan, if you know what's good for you, you should take the initiative to divorce me."Lin Shiyan grabbed the test results and glanced at them; she was indeed pregnant."Let's go," Lin Shiyan said to the young woman. "It's still early; we can still go to the hospital for an abortion.""Lin Shiyan, you are incredibly audacious! How dare you abort the eldest grandson of the Feng family!" The woman's expression changed drastically. She stood up abruptly and slapped Lin Shiyan.Lin Shiyan grabbed the woman's wrist and forcefully flung her away.Looking at

The soap burned the small cut on my knuckle as I scrubbed the last plate in the massive pile the household staff had deliberately left for me.Three years of this and you’d think I’d be used to it by now, but the casual cruelty still managed to sting in ways I didn’t want to examine too closely.I rinsed the plate and set it carefully in the drying rack, my hands moving with the efficiency of someone who’d done this hundreds of times before, then dried my hands and headed upstairs to tackle the next task on my invisible list of duties.Aurelia’s laundry sat in a delicate heap on our bedroom floor, silks and cashmeres that required hand washing because the dry cleaners could never get them quite right according to her exacting standards.I filled the basin with cool water and special detergent, working the fabric gently between my fingers while my mind drifted to the dinner I’d planned for tonight.Today was our anniversary. Three years since her grandfather had asked me to marry into

“You’re hurt.” He says walking up to me.“It’s just a scratch,” I told myself to be unfazed that he just fought off three men without even shifting to his wolf form, but I couldn’t help being impressed.He takes my forearm to examine the back of it where the bastard had attacked me from behind. Once again I was affected by him. He stood so close to me I could see the flecks of green in his amber eyes, his proximity had my thoughts in shambles.“I’m fine.” I swallowed nervously and tried to pull away but his grip was firm. I’ve never been so aware of anyone like this and it scared the shit out of me.“So much for being able to take care of yourself.”He said referring to what I said to him the first time we met and I reddened.I barely noticed when he pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket and used it to stifle the bleeding. I was still high on adrenaline and this wasn’t my first time being beaten up so I was able to marginally keep it together when he tied the handkerchief around m

She was awake at the crack of dawn, earlier than he usually woke up for his prayers. She searched, all her bags, every inch of her room even under her bed, as though she might have sleep walked and kept it there.After turning her room insude out she went out to the car, creeping like a thief in the darkness.She rummaged through the seats praying she hadn’t left it in her apartment, but it wasn’t there. She opened the boot of the car and saw a brown package there.She knew that couldn’t be it because it wasn’t wrapped but deeperatioj made her tear it open.She stepped back when red fabric fell to the good of the car.She picked it up what seems to be a garter and unfolded the rest of it.Lingerie. Her husband’s possibly ex paramour gifted her lingerie. Huh.She gave up the search making a mental note to call her former landlord the next day and went back to sleep.When she wone up, It was as if the previous events had never happened, if there wasn’t a missing plate in the set of 12

The flight landed at 6:44 in the morning, and by 6:55 there were cameras.I had expected them. Maya had managed the announcement carefully, enough information to generate coverage, not enough to invite questions she couldn't deflect, and the result was exactly what it was supposed to be: the arriva

Seth found another donor. He told me on a Sunday morning, standing in my kitchen with his laptop open and his voice doing the careful thing it did when he was trying to manage my expectations without letting me see that he was doing it. Forty-one percent compatibility, he said, a man in his fiftie
