Chapter Six...

Ahh...chapter six. In this chapter, Tink goes back in time as she recalls her abduction as a ten year old child. She shares her fear, as well as her need for revenge. She also fondly remembers her 'Guardian Spirit Witch' who she has put up on a pedestal, the one who came to her in Tink's darkest time of need. She shares with us what she, as a scared little girl, endured--some of her scariest punishments while in captivity...or were there more that we don't find out about at this time?

She also thinks about Tommy and the fact that his appearance is exactly as she imagined it would be in person. Then she wonders, as she has over the years, why she has been forbidden to have a relationship with someone who is a supernatural being, such as a vampire. There certainly is a reason for this, but for now, you can think of your own reasons for this. May be fun to see if you are right once that reason is revealed.

Tink continues to recall again back to her '10 year old self'' and what it was like when she returned home after quite a long abduction. She lets us know how others reacted and where she ended up. I can tell you this, she was hidden away in what I refer to as a 'protective exile.'

She then jumps to the age of 15 and describes her 'visit' with her parents. She reveals to us what she thinks about these people and what they were like with her when she lived with them. This is one of my favorite parts of this book. Tink accidentally finds out one of the most important secrets about her life that she was not at all aware of. This is also where we 'experience' our first sex scene. There are five in total in this book, but when I adapted this to a New Adult novel, these five scenes were removed for obvious reasons. As this is a story that can stand alone without explicit sexual content, the story remains the same. Each of the sex scenes in this book represents a different type of emotion/feeling/behavior. For example, this sex scene is created out of anger and dominance. As we've not had a scene like this yet, it seems to come out of left field as it is just not mentioned, it is detailed. 

Once this scene ends, and while we are still in shock over what we've just read or 'experienced,' the characters don't just take a break and, say, go to sleep. Quite the contrary. This scene leads to, and opens up a whole new world; a world which we had no idea was 'just around the corner.' The chapter ends, but in chapter seven, we begin, still with Tink narrating. Let's say that Tink not only found out some important information just moments earlier, but she now learns something about her mother that she also never expected. 

Keep in mind, everything is always connected in one way or another. 
​Until next time, dream on...
