Summary
The woman’s eyes widened, and her hand reached out, not quite touching Rumi, but close. “Not that you’re not beautiful, because wow, you-” She stopped, a look of realisation crossed her face “-I mean, no, wait, no, you are beautiful, but I wasn’t hitting on you, I have a girlfriend-”
Rumi ignored her chest squeezing.
“-A stunning girlfriend, Mira. I mentioned her, right? My girlfriend Mira-” The woman stopped abruptly and lowered her head down into her arms. “Jeez, Zoey, stop rambling at the deaf woman.” It was muffled, but Rumi heard it.
Silenced by grief, Rumi’s world is transformed when she crosses paths with Mira and Zoey, who guide her toward a voice she thought was lost forever.
Or
Mira with Zoey holding her arm in a death grip: Hey, my girlfriend saw you from across the record shop, and we really dig your vibe. Can we buy you a vinyl?

Summary
Rumi’s drowning. They could see it, and yet life moved on like normal. But she still struggled, until one night when it was only her and Zoey left in the house. It happened so fast, without warning.. and Zoey had to be the one to keep her afloat.
Rumi was so impossibly mad at herself.
For wanting to do it, for not doing it, no one answer was going without her breaking down, eating her alive.
“Don’t let me go…” Rumi sounded afraid. So genuinely afraid, that it shook Zoey to the core as she tightened her hold on Rumi in reflex to the desperate plea. It was just them.. Zoey had to do this, she had to be strong for the both of them. She was petrified, blinking back the tears in her eyes and cradling her lover gently.
“I’m not.. I promise.”
Mira had never answered a call faster at midnight.

Summary
Edited summary-
Set after the Idol Awards, Rumi is trying—failing—to keep it together. The Honmoon is stronger than ever, Mira and Zoey have finally found happiness in each other, and her girls have accepted her completely. So why does she feel so broken? Why does she feel so utterly alone?
She tells herself she’s happy for them, but every laugh, every touch, makes the ache sharper. Rumi wants what they have, but she’s convinced she’ll never fit, never belong the way they do. So she looks for love in the wrong places—and finds it.
But when it isn’t what she dreamed, when it leaves her bleeding instead of whole, will Mira and Zoey be able to show her that she deserves more? Or will Rumi spiral so far down there’s nothing left to save?

Summary
“Rumi! Calm down!” Mira swallowed hard. She tried to be as gentle as she could while applying pressure to her back. She couldn’t even imagine how much it hurt. “We’re right here! Just try to breathe!”
“We’re not going to leave your side!” The tears in Zoey’s eyes started to trail down her cheeks. She pressed her hand with a new towel up against her friend’s thigh first. “We’re right here! Just-” She cut herself off as she went to place her hand on Rumi’s arm. She froze with her facial expressions falling.
Tears started to cascade down Rumi’s face as she watched Zoey’s eyes widen, her pupils dilate and her whole body pull back just slightly.
The rapper’s gaze had fallen onto her exposed demon patterns.
Rumi let out a long trembling breath followed by a harsh whine.
She had to cover them up.

Jinu's soul has long since lost its humanity. There is no kindness nor empathy that remains. Instead, there is hatred fueled by shame that he directs towards this generation of Hunters. So when he learns one of these Hunters is half demon, that raging hatred explodes. Exposed in the bathhouse, Rumi doesn't have a choice whether or not her friends get to see the patterns she hides.
