Summary
She glanced down at her stomach, and he followed her gaze. Hesitating only for a breath, he touched the hem of her shirt.
“May I?” he asked softly. When she didn’t stop him, he lifted it just enough to see, crouching so his eyes were level with her waist. Bruising. Deep, ugly purple and red spreading along her side.
Bruises are easy to hide—until someone like Kai insists on seeing them, and insists even harder on helping.

Summary
All the people who had suffered, just so Selene could be found. Oh, how she hated Selene. Loathed her, even. It was always about Selene. About finding her, chaining her to a throne, irrespective of the damage it caused to others in the process.
Selene. Selene. Selene.
Stars knew what would happen when the world realized Selene no longer lived. That after the fire, only cinders remained.
In the ashes of revolution, Cinder is haunted by survivor’s guilt, the ghosts of the fallen, and the crushing fear that she’s not the queen her people need.

Summary
“You picked me up because you’re jealous,” she accused as he nudged the door open and kicked it shut behind them.
“No,” he said innocently. “I picked you up because I love you. The jealousy was just a bonus.”
It starts with a dance, a little jealousy, and ends — as always — with each other.

Summary
It's been six months since Kai and Cinder got engaged, and the wedding is fast approaching. Everyone is excited for the day; that is, until Cinder is given 21 days left to live.
This story will be told entirely from Kai's point of view in poetry form. The chapters will be short.
All of the characters belong to Marissa Meyer.
I'm going to warn you all now that this story is not a happy one. If you don't like that, then don't read it. Also, it's whack and way different than my normal stuff. Plus it doesn't make sense. Are you getting why I didn't post it for two years?
