Curses And Cornstalks – RK Pierce

Like the fact that everyone I knew is now dead. “It’s nice,” Cassie says, thankfully interrupting my train of thought. “Very different from what I’m used to. Quiet, peaceful for the most part. I don’t think I’m made for farm-life though.” “No?” I’ve slowed down now, in slightly less of a hurry to reach the end of the field, and Cassie is walking half a step behind me. It’s much easier to watch her, to study her features, without having to crane my neck to see her.

She shakes her head. “I’m not much of a morning person, and we have to get up super early to do chores. Though, if I’m honest, I’m not a fan of the chores either.” “Understandable.” I couldn’t blame her; I always hated farm chores too. “Do you plan on returning to your home, then?

If you don’t care for life in Cold Springs?” For a long moment, she doesn’t answer, and the unsettling feeling returns. Finally, she sighs. “I-I can’t go home. Not yet, anyway.” I wait for an explanation, but she doesn’t offer one. I don’t pressure her. “Are we lost?” she asks suddenly, changing the subject. She glances worriedly behind us, like she’s afraid something will spring out of the stalks and chase us. Little does she know how safe she is with me. The only thing Cassie has to worry about in this cornfield is me, and I’ve already decided not to harm her.

“No,” I assure her, slowing down even more so that we’re walking side by side. My arm brushes hers and electric sparks skitter down my limb, heating me from the inside out. “In fact, we’re almost there.” OceanofPDF.com Chapter Ten Cassie Almost there? There’s no way. How long did I walk before I found Atticus? Two hours? “I don’t understand.” I chance a glance over at him.

The sky has darkened to scarlet and navy, but there’s enough moonlight to make out his profile.

This one is for you. And for Vera Valentine.

This is all your fault. OceanofPDF.com Chapter One Cassie Bum-fuck nowhere. That’s where I unknowingly agreed to move when my aunt and uncle offered me a place to stay. No busy city streets or public transportation. No skyscrapers or bumper-to-bumper traffic. Nothing but fucking cornfields and tumbleweeds.

What did I get myself into? I groan and suppress the urge to bang my forehead against the steering wheel. I’m six hours into the most uneventful car ride of my life, and it’s too late to turn back now. It’s my fault for not researching Cold Springs before packing my things and hitting the road, but I was so desperate to get out of the city—to get away from my old life—that I hadn’t given it much thought.

The need for distance conquered logic, and I accepted their offer without hesitation. I even quit my job as a bartender and put my bachelor’s degree on hold to make the move. All for the chance at a fresh start, a clean slate. For the chance to spread my wings and live a little. To forget everything about the four years I wasted with my ex.
