Chapter 51

Most of the other texts are from Macy—there are seven of them talking about what happened in the study room. She wasn’t there, but the news of what Jaxon did to the wolf alpha has obviously spread. Not that I expected any different; he did it publicly for a reason. Plus Uncle Finn showing up at the tower shows just how far and fast the news traveled. 

Why the fuck is Grace surprised that the headmaster of the school heard about a huge vampire/werewolf beatdown? 

He doesn’t have a clue that I know he’s been trying to kill me instead of help me. 

Allegedly trying to kill her. Based solely off the word of some jealous asshole. 

“Why don’t you read Ophelia in this scene?” 

“Okay,” I answer, wondering why I have to play the damsel in distress. Because I’ve already read the play, I know this is the scene where Ophelia goes mad—or at least, where the audience gets to see her insanity for the first time. I try not to take it personally that she seems to think I’m the right one for the job…

At this point, at least it’s not fucking Pride and Prejuidce. 

It’s harder than I want it to be, especially when I realize my World History of Witchcraft Trials (and yeah, okay, now that I know about the whole paranormal thing, classes like this one make a lot more sense) is next. 

Oh gee. 

“I’ve been worried about you this morning.”

 “Worried about me or worried that the chandelier didn’t do its job well enough?” I query, walking faster in what I already know is a useless attempt to get away from him. He doesn’t stop walking, but everything about him kind of stills when I confront him with what Jaxon told me—which tells me all I need to know. 

And still, he tries to play it off. “What do you mean? Of course I’m worried about you.”

 “Give me a break, Flint. I know what you’ve been up to.”

 For the first time in our entire “friendship,” anger flashes in his eyes. “Don’t you mean you know what that tick told you I was up to?”

I’m not convinced that Jaxon isn’t simply being a jealous asshole about Flint. 

“I’m serious, Grace. You shouldn’t go anywhere alone. It’s not safe.”

Chapter 51 summary: As Grace goes, she checks her messages. She finds one from Macy wanting to know what had happened in the study room earlier. Which I literally forgot happened less than 30 minutes earlier. If only because the timeline in this book is so awful. 

She’s halfway to class when she realizes she’s not in uniform, so she rushes back to her room to change. In English class, the teacher makes her read out Ophelia’s lines from Hamlet. Grace feels an odd connection to the girl because she thought that she was going insane. (It’s also worth noting that Ophelia killed herself. So let’s hope that the author decides to take those similarities, too.) 

After class, Mekhi escorts her to her second period. As she thinks about the tunnels, she thinks about how close she’d come to another near-death experience before Lia had shown up. And shit man, was that literally yesterday? BAD TIMELINE IN THIS BOOK. 

Flint shows up, and Grace calls him out. However, he doesn’t exactly deny that he hasn’t been trying to kill her, but says that it’s “not what you think”. He wants to talk to her, alone, but Grace isn’t that fucking stupid. She refuses, obviously. As she and Mekhi walk away, Flint warns her not to go anywhere alone. 

Chapter 52

“Besides, I thought Jaxon was the whole reason the shifters were after me. Because they wanted payback for everything that went on with Hudson?”

So, let me see if I can follow this logic. 

Hudson was a vampire. 

He wanted to kill everything that wasn’t a born vampire. 

He did have his followers, but Jaxon was kind of vague about who they were. 

But considering that he was intent on killing anybody who wasn’t a natural vampire… why the fuck would werewolves align themselves with him? Even if they did reach a temporary agreement to leave the werewolves alone… do they think that it would last long after Hudson killed everybody else? 

As usual here, the thought was there. But the math isn’t adding up.

 So unless they’re playing a rousing game of Terrorize the Human, I can’t imagine what the shifters could possibly get out of trying to kill me.

I’ve been trying to puzzle that out, too. 

“Because the Jaxon Vega I’ve known my whole life doesn’t almost start a war over a girl he just wants to ‘hang out’ with.”

Chapter 52 summary: As Grace and Mekhi walk through the tunnel, Grace feels much better than she had yesterday. Something that she chalks up to the easy friendship she’s forming with Mekhi, rather than the awkward “I’m going to kill you” vibes she suddenly realized she was getting from Flint. (I’m still on the fence about that, btw.)

As they go, she asks Mekhi if it’s normal not to hear from Jaxon, but he insists that Jaxon isn’t the kind of person who “checks in” on others. She asks him what Hudson was like, but he doesn’t have much to add other than what even Grace already knew about him. 

Lia shows up, and insists that she can take Grace from here, since they’re going to the same place. Mekhi agrees after making sure Grace is alright with it. Once they’re alone, Lia invites Grace over to her room that evening for a “girl’s night”. Grace is kind of hesitant, since she had hoped to spend time with Jaxon, but he’s not answering. The two of them talk about grief for a moment, and Lia eventually says that she’s tired of being sad all of the time, and wants a fresh start with Grace. 

Finally, Jaxon texts back. Grace promises Lia that they’ll do face masks and paint their nails another night. 

Chapter 53

“Well, I like it. And the fact that it doesn’t scream that I want to get naked with him.”

 “Says the girl who got up to all kinds of naughty stuff in his room today,” she says with a smirk.

“I never should have told you that! And it’s not like we got naked. We just made out.”

I would like to remind the readers that they are still in high school. They are literal children. (This message was brought to you by “being an adult” and “seeing everybody under the age of 25 as a literal child”.)

And that’s before he pulls back the curtains that cover his window, and I get my first look at what’s waiting for us.

Chapter 53 summary: The chapter starts off with Grace getting ready for her date with Jaxon. Macy insists that her cousin should wear a racy red dress with little fabric, but Grace insists on something a bit more modest. As usual, it goes on for too long with little actual point. 

She goes to Jaxon’s room, where they make out a bit. He then puts a hoodie on her before he opens up the curtains.

Hiii! Do you know any good larry pride and prejuidce au? I’ve been in a mood lately :))))

yes i’ve got a few for you! they’re on my tbr so i havent read them yet but i’m sure they’re great

the last person on earth i could ever marry (50k)

A Pride and Prejudice AU, where Harry is fed up with rich men and Mr Tomlinson is a very rich man.

Moves and countermoves (75k)

This tale of love unfolds in the England of the late 18th century. The five Tomlinson children - including responsible Zayn and strong-willed Louis - have been raised by their mother with one purpose in life: finding a husband. When a wealthy bachelor takes up residence in a nearby manor, the village is excited. Amongst the man's sophisticated circle of friends, surely there will be no shortage of suitors for the two eldest Tomlinsons. But when Louis meets the handsome and - it would seem - snobbish Sir Harry Styles, everything he thought he knew may be turned upside down.

Or, the Pride and Prejudice AU which may or may not have a lot more sexual content than the original.

pride and property (45k)

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife. Or nowadays, a husband.

“I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine.”

How the wedding fashion trends will change post lockdown - Times of India

New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/how-the-wedding-fashion-trends-will-change-post-lockdown-times-of-india/

How the wedding fashion trends will change post lockdown - Times of India

To ad-lib Pride & Prejuidce: “It is a truth universally acknowledged that a designer (in India) to be in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a bride.” For years, bridal fashion has been the proverbial cash cow for Indian designers. Now, as wedding industry and the whole idea of the big, fat desi wedding is in a rethink, the wedding fashion industry is also looking to reinvent

But couturiers Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla are hopeful as they say, “At this moment, we are still extremely busy imagining, ideating and sketching new collections. This lockdown will end, restrictions on weddings and gatherings will ease. And our appetite for beauty and celebration will return.”

CLASSICS WILL RETURN Most of the couture in India is driven by the wedding industry. The grand dame of Indian fashion Ritu Kumar says, “It’s tough to predict the new landscape of wedding fashion but the new wedding wear would be more classic.” She feels there will be a return to the 90s when simpler, more value for money styles with multiple wearability were the norm. Kumar adds, “As a culture, we save. And the thinking process of the consumer would go back to value for money. People will be far more conservative in spending.” People are also demanding sustainable wedding fashion.

(Ritu Kumar)

RETURN OF HAND-CRAFTED Jani-Khosla say that in India, there has been a culture for cherishing and revering the hand-crafted. Khosla adds, “The wealth that is our artisans and karigars, our techniques, textiles is unsurpassed. It is a well we will continue to draw inspiration from. Also budgets should never mean one forgoes beauty or excellence.” Designers contend that there will be more mindful spending.

WELCOME TO THE INSTAGRAM WEDDING For quite some time now, wedding industry has been following the design sensibility that makes for a well-photographed wedding. Now fashion too has to be ready for a digital makeover especially as the wedding sizes go micro with no more than 40 guests. Demand for clothes that photograph well is the way forward.

(Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla) LIKE MOTHER, LIKE DAUGHTER Heirlooms and pre-loved wedding clothes are going to be a big trend. Kumar says that your dream wedding outfit might be lying in your mom’s closet and adds, “The conservative bridal outfit will return.” Think conservative colours, restrained embroidery and simpler looks. As Jani says, “A smaller wedding can and will be a thing of absolute beauty. One keeps it intimate, fewer people and functions. But there is no holding back on the details, the finesse, the style.”

LESSONS LEARNED Kumar is sure that going forward there will be a change in fashion cycles. “Of late, we were enamoured by the seasonal ups and downs of Europe. Now there will be a move towards not only wearing Indian but also customising things suited to us and our weather.” And it’s a truth universally acknowledged we Indians love our desi weddings and that might be the good news the fashion world awaits.
