    Summary

    For Freminet, taking the brunt of what he thought was an acid attack aimed towards Spina di Rosula's boss was nothing more than a split second decision. He wouldn't call himself a hero by any stretch of the imagination-he's skittish and meek and tragically pathetic on almost every level-and he wouldn't say he led his life with noble and virtuous intentions either.

    -But when the urge to help someone comes to him, he ponders little over it. That's just what a good person would do, and Freminet desperately wants that: to be a good person.

    (Still, maybe he should have paid more attention to just what was being splashed.)

    OR

    Freminet dissolves into water. That really should have been the end of it, but it seems like the ocean wasn't keen on letting him go just yet.

    Summary

    Three college girls. One impossibly secure, suspiciously modern house.

    Mira and Zoey accidentally show up for the same room viewing—only to find out the place has two rooms, a blue cat with no thoughts, and a gorgeous, slightly intimidating landlord named Rumi who sleepwalks and slices lemons like they owe her money.

    It’s not exactly what they expected.
    It’s better.

    Summary

    Zoey doesn’t know how long she stands there in the middle of her dorm room, gawking at the notification flashing at her screen.

    Well, notifications, plural. They’re back to back on her home screen, right under all her social media notifications of people showering her with likes for today’s breakfast.

    Ryu Rumi sent you $250.00
    “For lunch! Let me know if you need more xo”

    Kang Mira sent you $501.00
    “lmk if she sent more than 500, I can double it lol”

    Zoey loudly declares, “What the HELL?”

    Or, broke college student Zoey goes viral for her revolting college meals—and rich girls Rumi and Mira find a little pity (among other things) in their hearts for her.

    Summary

    In addition to her 30-plus notebooks filled with song lyrics, Zoey keeps a very special one where she and Mira write down all the new things and behaviors that Rumi's demonic heritage causes in her. Let's see what it's been like sharing their lives with a half-demon.

    (Spoilers: Shenanigans ensue)

    -

    Each chapter explores different aspects of Rumi's demonic behavior, all following a kind of continuous narrative. This is the content that each chapter will cover:

    Ch. 1: Physical Contact
    Ch. 2: Fangs
    Ch. 3: Growls and Purrs
    Ch. 4: Prey Drive and Claws
    Ch. 5: Salt, Horns and Eyes
    Ch. 6: ...Demonnip?
    Ch. 7: Hypersensitive Senses, Nesting and Marking
    Ch. 8 and 9: Patterns and... Everything Else

    Summary

    Mira and Zoey don’t know this yet (they will, one day soon, they will), but Rumi died for the first time the Monday after her eleventh birthday.

    Or

    Rumi inhaled, the rush of air filling her lungs, inflating that tiny balloon called hope trapped behind her ribs.

    “I love you, Celine.”

    The words tumbled out of her gracelessly, but so so sweetly. She waited, and all the while, that little balloon grew and grew, the plastic skin of it stretching and thinning with every second before—

    “You too,” Celine said back.

    ‘Pop.’

    “Celine,” Rumi tried again, voice shaking as tears she didn’t even know she still had left to shed began to drip down her left cheek. “Celine, I said I love you.

    Or

    If demons (even half-demons) could kill themselves, there probably wouldn't be many left. Rumi doesn't know this, yet. She learns.
