There's a new kid in town and Tolkien finds her eerily mysterious. She rarely smiled. She only talked to her cousins--who happened to be his friends. She always looked behind her back everytime she's out of the house.

He knew there's something about her more than meets the eye. The twins won't tell him but his curiousity got the best of him that he found himself watching her whenever she's around. He's determined to unravel the truth behind Jace Connors' I-don't-care facade and why she was hiding in their small town

Be The Light

Elli never felt this anxious before except for when her mom forced her in a ballet class back when she was eight, and she had to wear a pink tutu. 


It was the first time she would see the horrible person that made her cousin who she was today. And the one who was responsible for her Aunt Jasmine's death. She didn't know how to act, honestly.

Elli felt Tolkien nudged him with his elbow. She glanced up at him with a frown. Freaking giant. 


"What?" she hissed at him as they waited by the sitting room's door. Jun and Jace were patiently waiting by the front door. 


"It's just Aeron and the Oyabun's wingman," Tolkien whispered. He probably noticed her apprehension. "At least that's what August said." 


Elli let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. "You're right. How come you're as calm as Jace and the jerkwad?" 


Tolkien chuckled. "I'm not. But I trust Yui."
