Chapter 11: Fangs Out

MILO’S POV

I can’t believe I said that to her. Well, I'll take that back. I can believe it because there’s been nothing on my mind as frequently as those beestung lips, always matte, always pillow soft looking. There’s a lot of stuff I can’t have at this phase of my life. Dignity. Privacy. A chance to see my family one more time. It seems I can’t accept never feeling the texture of her lips against mine, her airbrush perfect skin on my rougher cheek.
