Ximora and Jaelen laughed as he passed her the blunt.
"Bruh I'm high as fuck" Ximora giggled as she blew some smoke out.
"Mane you tapping on me?"
She shook her head "Ouu let's do that shotgun thingy"
He nodded and pulled her into his lap.
Ximora propped her phone up to record as he took a long pull from the blunt.
"Sexy ass"
Jaelen grabbed her neck and kissed her lips.
"I wanna talk" he said
"About what?" Ximora asked kissing him back.
"Ion like what we been on lately" he told her.
"All that arguing" he took the blunt from her and put it out.
Ximora moved back over into her seat, and looked to him.
"Tell me wassup" he said as he looked over at her.
"Okay, when you leave out. I always ask where you going and I only get a 'I gotta handle sum, I'll be back' or 'I'll see y'all later' I don't like that" Ximora told him.
Jaelen nodded.
"I understand that, but what I do is different from a regular job. I can't say 'bae I'm bout to go kill a nigga, I love you' or sum like that to you. I keep things away from you as my way of protecting you, not tryna be sneaky."
"You understand?" He asked.
She nodded and looked out the window, causing him to grab her chin so she could face him.
"Yes Jae, I understand"
"I wanna talk about our main argument" he said, causing her to roll her eyes.
"You continuously get mad at me about Ty, and I don't like that" Ximora said.
"I don't get mad at you about him. I'm irritated because I constantly ask you to just keep the relationship straight business. I do trust you Mora, but when you invite him over to eat and the nigga taking you out for lunch, that fucks wimme"

"I feel like you're blowing it out of proportion. I never really looked at him in that light, and I never will. So if he did like me it wouldn't happen" she told him.
He shook his head "I'm telling you what's bothering me Mora, and you making it seem like I'm crazy"
"You sound insecure Jaelen"
"I'm not insecure about shit, I'm just communicating what's making me uncomfortable"
Jaelen blew out a breath, everything in him wanted to just get out the car. But he knew that wouldn't be effective.
Ximora was over the conversation, before they could really start. She felt that Jaelen was being dramatic about her and Ty. It also hurt her that he didn't seem to trust her.
"But it was okay for that bitch to still be around me and you? At your birthday party?" Ximora spat.
Jaelen sighed.
"Ximora.. I ain gon keep apologizing behind that. I love you and I'm sorry bout that shit, but you said you'd forgive me. If you really forgiving me, you gotta let that shit go and stop throwing it in my face every time we argue" he told her.
She rolled her eyes, knowing he was right.
"I'm sorry" she mumbled.
He nodded "Back to that nigga.."
"Jaelen-" she started with a sigh
"Ion wanna give you a ultimatum, but you gon have to make a choice for real"
"I'm not doing that Jaelen" she huffed.
He chuckled "So you gon fight for that nigga over our relationship?"
"I'm not fighting for him Jaelen, I just don't understand why it's this deep to you"
"You serious Ximora?"
"Yes Jaelen"
"Let it have been me and a girl-"
"It already has been" she said cutting him off.
"Don't cut me off.. if me and another girl was constantly being extra friendly you wouldn't like that right? If you asked me to fall back or even cut her off, I'd do it. Cause that shit making my girl feel a certain way, and your feelings matter to me"

"See now you tryna make it seem like I don't care about your feelings"
"Don't put words in my mouth. I ain say that Ximora" he leaned back in his seat and relit the blunt.
"I'm over this conversation Jaelen."
"El oh elll, this the shit I be talking about"
"What you be talking about?" She asked scrunching up her face.
"Ion know.." he laughed.
She rolled her eyes. "No one's playing Jaelen"
"I ain playing, you the only one playing Ximora"
"But like I said, I'm done talking or arguing about this" Ximora told him.
"Ight then I'm cool off this relationship" he shrugged.
"Bet" Ximora said feeling her heart break.
"Cause ion understand how you can't at least try to see where I'm coming from. You just shutting shit down without even listening for real"
"Okay Jaelen" she rolled her eyes, and put her seatbelt on.
"Take me home" she said.
He nodded and started the car towards her apartment.

Zara was one of them--a young woman forced to spend her days in confinement, to lessen the risks of outsiders discovering the truth. She was not human. She was, as they say, a living embodiment of a thousand year old curse upon the Kingdom and humanity as a whole. And the only way to handle a curse is to get rid of it--which is precisely what the Kingdom had been doing for centuries--eliminating any being that contained even an ounce of enchanted blood. Zara has lived most of her life with the threat of death hanging over her head, though it never averted her heightening curiosity about magic, nor the abilities innate within her. And when a powerful, enigmatic Sorcerer comes to her with a proposition, Zara finally sees her chance to embrace the curse she was born with.
