Jabari cleared his throat, finally breaking what felt like an eternal silence that had settled over the room like a held breath.

"We've all heard the Diviner's revelations and the outcomes. I won't lie I'm shocked beyond explanation, but it is what it is. That has been taken into consideration."

He glanced briefly at the head of the table. "Master Ashworth, would you like to commence, or should I continue?"

Deimon sighed — an exhale that came from a deeper, more troubled place in his mind.

  • The Crescent Heir    The Ticket to Ninety-Nine

    Never in this world was he spilling his humiliation before Deimon. He'd rather face the guillotine, rather kneel and offer his own neck to the blade, than admit that Sophia had played mind games with him while she whipped him with a cursed lash named Godzilla, all while he lay chained to her bed like some errant pup begging for mercy.The shame was crawling up from wherever he'd tried to bury it, clawing its way back to the surface, and the anger came climbing right behind it, twin serpents coiling around the same bone."Had a bad one?" Deimon asked again, twisting his head toward Romulus with that distinguished look of his, one brow arched, holding back a smile like he'd already caught the shape of what was churning inside the boy's mind and was simply waiting for him to confirm it aloud.Romulus didn't even notice the frustrated sigh escape him before he spoke, the sound low and bitten off at the edges."What can I say? Call it the 'what I expected versus what I got' scenario."Dei

  • The Crescent Heir    The Severance Gamble

    "Anna...""JB, please." Anna looked Jebediah straight in the eyes now, hers shimmering with unshed tears, threatening to spill with the smallest provocation. Jebediah couldn't help but soften, the fight draining out of him just from that look alone. "It's written not just in your eyes, but in the way you talk. You're terrible at pretending, babe."Jebediah giggled despite himself, though it came out shakier than he meant it to. "What? What was that just now?" He booped her nose playfully, buying himself a second to gather his nerve. "Now you see right through me? Damn.""JB.""Alright, you win." Jebediah sighed, the sound heavy and dragged. "I don't know how you're going to take the news. It bites too hard just saying it out loud." He cradled her closer, arms tightening around her like he could shield her from words with nothing but the strength of his hold. "I don't want it to hurt you.""JB." Her voice dropped quiet now, almost a whisper, but there was steel threaded underneath the

  • The Crescent Heir    Tell Me the Truth, JB

    ----Jebediah kept his expression neutral at the table, though it cost him more than he let show on his face.Before he could even settle in and meet everyone properly at the dinner table, the room was already a storm of noise. The usual laughter and usual chaos, nobody caring in the slightest that there was a guest in their midst.Loretta couldn't stop herself from laughing every few minutes, already making friends with Mama Eunice, the two of them matching each other's energy like they'd known one another for decades instead of hours. Introductions went round the table twice, cheers rising loud enough for a hall three times the size, entirely too much fuss for just one woman — though Loretta seemed to be soaking up every second of it.Anna wouldn't stop over-explaining, and the crowd gave their usual exaggerated reactions to every word, gasping and hollering like she was recounting legend instead of memory. Loretta took her time explaining her clan, her family's roots, Anna's childh

  • The Crescent Heir    One Big Problem

    Jebediah looked into his mother's eyes and realized she wasn't joking — not even a little.He'd seen her serious before, the way her blue eyes dimmed the moment all humor drained from her face. But this was different. Maureen was dead serious."Like, right now, mother?" Jebediah said, surprise coloring his own voice."Yes, son. And it can't wait." Maureen's tone left no room for negotiation.Jebediah glanced behind him, making sure no one was within earshot. The muffled voices of Anna and Loretta drifted faintly through the air until they vanished into the building. He turned back to his mother."But mother, this isn't a good time. Anna's mom just arrived. Shouldn't we be giving her a proper welcome, at least?""Alright, I'll make it brief, then." She grabbed him by the wrist and pulled him toward the corner of the security booth, just as a staff member walked briskly past them, headed for the garage."Mother, you're making me nervous, keeping me in suspense like this. What urgency co

  • The Crescent Heir    The Safe Arrival

    The Porsche slowly slid into the estate's garage, quiet and soundless, the engine reducing to a low hum before dying altogether.Anna had met Maureen's question with silence, her hands busy with her phone, thumb jabbing the redial button over and over. Her face wore a panic that was really alarming, the kind that drained color from a person's cheeks and made their hands shake without them even noticing.Maureen let her have it her way, watching her with her side vision, worry etched deep into the lines of her face. She'd raised enough children to know when silence needed to be respected, and when it needed to be broken."Anna love, don't panic much about it, I believe it's alright. Probably network issue." Maureen tried to comfort her, despite knowing deeply that it wasn't helping. The words felt hollow even to her own ears, but sometimes hollow words were better than none at all."My mom's phone has never gone off, Mother. It's too odd to me." Anna came with a worried tone, voice tig

  • The Crescent Heir    He Can Trade The World For You

    Maureen didn't answer immediately.Her hands steadied on the wheel, her eyes fixed on the road ahead. Anna stared at her, wondering if she'd even heard the question. She had — clearly — and was deliberately keeping quiet. Anna felt embarrassment creep up her neck at the silence that met her. She shouldn't have asked that. Not like that, not so bluntly. Her eyes dropped low, gaze sliding away from Maureen toward her own hands folded in her lap. She'd known, somewhere underneath the question, that it wasn't wise to ask it out loud."Baby girl." Maureen's voice came calm and soothing, practical even. Anna's gaze snapped back to her. Maureen breathed out, and smiled in a knowing way. "Do you believe Jebediah truly loves you enough to bear both you and the child of another?"The question was simple enough sitting there in the open air. The answer was the problem. Anna opened her mouth to say something, and found her brain had nothing waiting there to fill the space. Her mouth shut again o
