TABLE OF CONTENTS THORNA LULLABY OF FLAMES THORNA INSIDE THE BOX THORNA THE CELEBRATION GAME THORNA A LITTLE WISH THORNA A LAYER HIDDEN THORNA NOTHING BUT BONES THORNA MIRROR, MIRROR THORNA THORNA BLOOD RISEN SWEET AS HONEY ASHER For those who wanted to be given a story THORNA The world could be a vicious thing, one surrounded by sharpened thorns. Both visible and invisible. For Thorna, this was more than true. She was in love with a human, and she hadn’t known true love until she stumbled upon him. Lovers of her past had held pieces of her heart, but not her entire being. Thorna had once read a book of dark and monstrous tales called Dearest Clementine that LULLABY OF FLAMES Cori sat on her bed, strumming a tune on her guitar. It was already dark outside and her parents would be coming home late from her dad’s company party. Her brother was out somewhere with his pregnant girlfriend, so it was just Cori, the guitar, an old movie playing in the background, and her black and white checkered vinyl dress. Vintage. She placed one platformed boot on the carpet.
