Sunday Snippet, March 13, 2016 Nemesis Marks
Thank you everyone who messaged, liked, and reblogged that little snippet I posted earlier this week. So here is another little bit. For the original post go here.
There was no way that perfect prince Duncan Kane could be her nemesis. Which clearly left him. Logan Echolls: Nemesis.
Most people got their marks with puberty. But no. That was just another way the universe was screwing him. Logan couldn’t remember a time when he didn’t have the word ‘Father’ taunting him from his wrist. But his soulmate mark hadn’t appeared, even when other people started gossiping about getting theirs. What really killed him about it was that it was usually the other way around. If you got just one mark it was your soulmate and you were likely to live a happy normal life.
What does that say about you, Logan? No happy or normal in your future…
He’d spent many a long night wondering if his mark meant he would be just like Aaron and that’s why he didn’t have a soulmate. Then he’d met Lilly and been certain her name would appear on his skin. She’d be his escape. But it never came and she swore she had no marks. No soulmate, no nemesis. Lilly had been convinced it was a sign of how fabulous she was.
“No one to hold me down or back. I rule my fate!”
Logan swallowed a long pull of scotch—the good stuff from the locked cabinet—and stared at Veronica’s name. It had appeared while he held her during Lilly’s funeral.
