    Summary

    Rumi’s jaw trembled. “You think I don’t notice?” she pressed, voice thick with hurt she couldn’t hide anymore. “The way you look at me like I’m… annoying. Like I’m nothing. Like I’ll never be good enough for you.”

    “That’s not—” Mira’s voice faltered, snapping off before it could betray her. She clenched her teeth hard enough her jaw ached.

    Rumi didn’t stop. She couldn’t—she was unraveling, and she dragged Mira down with her.

    “Then what is it?!” Rumi’s nails curled into Mira’s arm, desperate, pleading, furious. “Why do you treat me like I’m the problem? Like I’m the only one you can’t stand to be around? Everyone else gets the part of you that laughs, that smiles, that actually lets people in—but me?” Her breath shuddered. “All I get is this.”

    Her voice cracked on this, and it hit harder than any hit they’d thrown.

    Mira squeezed her eyes shut, chest trembling. Stop. Please stop. I can’t do this.

    But Rumi pushed—because she needed an answer, because she was breaking.

    “You hate me so much? Then fine—say it!” she choked. “Say it to my face so I can finally stop wondering why the hell I keep trying with you.”

    Summary

    “I’m sorry,” Zoey cut in meekly. “I’m just trying to understand—”

    Rumi whirled to face her, and she flinched back. “I’ve explained this to you before. We have insects that are pests and we have insects that are beneficial. If we let the pests live, they do damage, so we kill them. It doesn’t matter if it’s alive—all of them are alive, but some of them need to die.”

    A study of Rumi and bugs.

    Summary

    "Pretty kitty," Zoey murmurs, and Rumi can feel her new ears twitch and swivel to pick the sound up as clear as day. The fingers on her face brush against the short furs of her muzzle with a tenderness and reverence that Rumi had only ever dreamed would ever be directed at her.

    Half-demon. Patterned. Claws, fangs, fur. A monster.

    But not to them.
