EMBER
Six months ago, if you’d told me I’d get a haircut from an imp, I’d have
called you crazy. If you would’ve said I’d lose my sword in a twentyfoot-deep crevice beneath the biggest church in town, I’d have laughed.
And the mere mention that my baby sister would be getting it on with a
demon prince in the room down the hall would’ve had me in stitches.
Yet here we were…and the haircut wasn’t even a good one.
I rummaged through my mom’s sewing kit and grabbed her sharpest
pair of fabric scissors before returning it to the shelf and padding across the
living room in my socks. My door was the first on the left. Beyond that,
Patrice slept in Cinder’s bed, and at the end of the hall, Miles and Shade
shared my parents’ space. In between, Ash lay in her bedroom, snuggled up
with Chaos, Prince of Hell.
I shook my head. That wasn’t even the craziest thing that had happened
over the past few weeks.
After flipping on the light, I strode through my room and stepped into
the bathroom. I could hardly bear my reflection. I’d showered and even put
on a bit of makeup this morning, so I didn’t look terrible—aside from my
hair—but the tightness of my eyes and the set of my jaw told the story of a
woman who’d had the crushing weight of the entire world thrust onto her
back in one fell swoop.
And she wasn’t sure how much longer she could carry it.
“One thing at a time, Em,” I said to the woman I barely recognized.
“Focus on the things you can control. Complete one task, and then you can
worry about the next.” Otherwise, I might curl into a ball on the floor and
cease to exist.
Up first, fixing my hideous hair.
I glared at the side the imp had chopped off with a pair of garden shears.
Granted, the slimy little sucker was going for my neck, so I should’ve been
glad he only took off ten inches of hair. But it would take me at least two
years to grow it back to the length I liked.
Switching my focus to the long purple locks on the other side of my
head, I sighed. This was a thing I could control. A problem I could solve,
even if the solution wasn’t appealing in the slightest.
I gathered a fistful in my hand and closed the scissors around it. I tried
to, at least, but my hair was too thick. Working the blades open and closed, I
sawed off a clump, leaving jagged edges and lament in its wake.
“Oh, honey. Let me help you.” Ash’s voice startled me, and I jumped,
dropping the scissors into the sink.
“I didn’t hear you come in.” I picked them up and grabbed another
fistful of hair.
“Give them to me.” She held out her hand, so I placed the handles in her
palm. “That little bugger did a number on you, didn’t he?” She grabbed
some clips and pinned up the top layer of my hair.
