A Migration of Hearts

With Jayce, all her prior practice has gone out the window.

He is her undoing, circumventing the very programming of her practice and divests her of logic. Her connection to him had been nothing trivial. They were not friends. At one time in history, he had been her heart personified. He was the living, breathing cumulation of her wanting. Her deepest desires began and ended with him, and Mel saw those truths reflected in the golden pools of his eyes. She looks away, the knot in her throat growing thick. Threatening to choke.

A War of Hearts

Mel still thinks of his words, I’ll wait for you to come back to me. A curse, an omen, a threat, twisted and knotted into each other until Mel can not longer tell how Jayce meant it.
