> quickly fading when I realize the roll and @RoyalBloodLust's knife is gone.. for that matter, the entire dinner has disappeared- New gifts we should know about?

> in cages. -or dungeons.. why not? Truth, I liked the idea of @MortallyCorrupt locked away in a dungeon with @ADevilByName and @StaysInTrouble for eternity. I lift a hand to point the roll I'd been nibbling on at @RoyalBloodLust like she'd pointed the knife at us, my smile >

> get together had been ruined by @MortallyCorrupt in some way. Would tonight be different? Probably not.. It was James after all. I crack a smile and turn to face @RoyalBloodLust, sure she would understand if hell really did break loose- You know, you should keep the monkeys >

I'm not smiling at a fucking thing. -it didn't look like @RoyalBloodLust's warning had done much good. Not if @MortallyCorrupt couldn't help himself. Not that he ever could. His control was lacking, especially when it came unraveling family get togethers. Every single family >

> piece of roll into my mouth, wondering why @RoyalBloodLust hadn't loaded the table down with whiskey and wine-

> time to catch @MortallyCorrupt's eye and nearly fucking cringe because he'd caught me lost in my own world, and while he might not know what I was thinking, he could guess because @RoyalBloodLust would damn sure know.. God.. This family was fucked.. I laugh, popping a >

> because the answer was the same every damn time, and neither one of us liked it.. Both of us.. She'd proven it a million times.. Both of us.. It was the weirdest fucking triangle I'd ever been in and I'd been in some.... odd.. triangles.. Smiling to myself, I look up just in >

> wrong.. because we both fucking knew he wasn't. We'd been fighting over @RoyalBloodLust since day one.. That's what it all boiled down to.. Who did she want more? Who did she need more? Who would she kill for? Who was more important? Those questions couldn't be answered >

> tonight... I was the one in a mood, but @MortallyCorrupt wasn't helping shit with his grinning and smirking at every word @ADevilByName said. We'd gotten into it more than once... somehow we'd both lived to tell about it.. but neither of us were truly convinced that Adam was >

> nope... Did not need those fuckers at holidays or the bullshit that came with them. If I'd had my way they'd have both been done with a thousand times by now.. I liked the littles though.. They'd managed to make cute kids despite their... misgivings.. Okay.. I was an asshole >

Ugh.. -Yay.. @InsightfulMedic had shown up with @ADevilByName and @StaysInTrouble.. Two I'd have loved to keep as employees and not family.. but Lynn didn't know how to follow the fucking rules... I love my sister.. would easily kill for her.. but her husbands and their chaos? >

> was always at the top of my shit list- Or... was that his addition to the invitation? -plucking a roll off the table, I tilt my head and smile @RoyalBloodLust, wondering how long before someone threw a punch- No pool this year? I didn't get to place a bet.

> famous three minute warning. "You couldn't be bothered to dress up?" Kicking the back of James' chair, I shot an impressive glare his way before acknowledging tonight's host- If you wanted formal.. you should have sent a better invitation. -as far as I was concerned.. James >

> danced around me, slipping out the side door before I had the satisfaction of kicking him out.. He was right though.. @RoyalBloodLust wouldn't let it go, and we'd never hear the end of it.. To avoid that shit... I paraded my happy ass through her door as she called out her >

> argue against attending @RoyalBloodLust's dinner. Shit NEVER went like it was supposed to and yet... she never stopped with the parties.. "Dress up. You know she likes pretty things." I'd groaned and attempted to throw the fucker out of my house, but he'd only laughed and >

-I hated holidays... fucking hated them. I'd almost hoped we'd be granted a Thanksgiving miracle and the holiday would be ignored... I should have known better. The second @MortallyCorrupt showed up in my living room I'd let out a long sigh, head shaking as I attempted to >

> spinning out of control in my head. No, one was never going to be enough-

> perfume they'd never be able to wash off of her. I left her body where I'd found it... laying perfectly still in her bed, my gaze catching the claw marks on my wrist, I shake my head sure that one wasn't going to be enough.. not to cure the raging in my heart and the darkness >

> blood covered lips when I back away, her body drained in the real world- If only you were a little less sweet.. -pulling her hair down, I covered my bite and stood up, my scent lingering all over, her bed, her hair.. It was everywhere. Candy coated madness she now wore like a >

now bubbling over her head, watching until her nails released my arm and her flailing stopped and she started to sink- I'd say i'm sorry.. -but I wasn't.. I pulled her lifeless body in close and pressed a kiss to her cheek before releasing her dream, a sated smile curling my >
