GRIMM
My birthday went off without a hitch and Verena gifted me the most amazing birthday gift I could ask for. We are forever bonded with one another.
Later that evening, I fucked her senseless as we both wore nothing but our vials of blood around our necks. We loved each other passionately for hours on end, never wanting the moment to end.
A few weeks after my birthday came graduation. After graduation, things were different. The original four were growing. Emmett ran off to New York with Blair, Verena and I got a small starter place together just off campus, Eli and I started working with Griffin, and Jaden, well, I’ll save Jaden’s story for another day.
This year has been the most exhausting, draining, and emotionally taxing year, but also the most rewarding and bittersweet. It’s the end of an era. For the guys and myself, our college life is over, but the real world is just welcoming us in.
Let’s fuck some shit up!
Soon after graduation, The Red Skull Brotherhood disbanded. With Emmett being the successor, he offered to pass it on to me, but there was no way in hell I wanted to be associated with a human trafficking ring. I had one condition, if I’m in charge, the Brotherhood gets shut down, and they come to work for me under Griffin’s payroll. I had gathered a shit ton of muscle, brains, and businessmen for Griffin to use as he pleases. Him and his men welcomed us all with open arms.
The pieces of my life are all beginning to click into place seamlessly. After feeling like a pile of broken shards headed to the dumpster for so long, life proved to me that just because it’s broken, doesn’t mean you can’t fix it.
Just because there’s a couple of dings in the tool, doesn’t deem it useless.
Chipped paint can still be beautiful.
Worn out art is still worthy.
I’ve learned so much about life, and those close to me in such a short amount of time. I’ve learned that sometimes these sinful little lies that cling to our backs need to be taken care of and tackled head on, so we’re able to live out the life we truly deserve, not just life we think we deserve.
