Epilogue Chapter It was tough escaping from Hux. After Ben killed Snoke, it didn’t take long for Hux to storm in and challenge us to fight. “What have you done?!” he asked, his pale face turning purple. “I did what needed to be done,” Ben said. Hux looked wildly around the room and wiped…
Chapter 20 “It’s Time” His fingers close around mine. My heart leaps as he tugs me closer to him. Wrapping me in an eager embrace, I can feel him trembling against me, his eyes letting out the tears he’s been holding back. This isn’t a good time to tell him that it isn’t what…
Chapter 19 “The Rey to His Sun” The electricity fizzing between our blended lips is greater than I could have ever imagined. The softness of his mouth, the taste of him, the way it felt for his fingers to graze my skin—I’d never felt like bursting before. Not until now. I could explode into a…
Chapter 17 “The Fight” Time stopped. The moment Snoke fell to the floor, I swear time stopped. I fell to the floor with him, no longer held back by his haunting grasp. I turn to see that, yes, Snoke really is dead. Does it all end here? I look to Ben. It’s true. He…
Chapter 16 “The Throne Room” Rey’s body moves in front of me like a wave hitting the shore. It delicately sways, but within it lies intense strength. She’s holding herself upright and completely composed, but I can feel what’s really going on inside her. Fear. Anxiety. It’s overpowering the feelings that were swirling inside…
Chapter 15 “Inside the Elevator” My legs won’t stop shaking. I’ve been waiting for this moment for weeks, but now that it’s finally here I don’t know what to do with myself. To be honest, it’s not really going as I was hoping it would. Ben is turning Luke’s lightsaber—my lightsaber—in his gloved hands. Those…
Chapter Thirteen “It’s Time” I look at Luke with disdain. I follow him through the rain at a rapid pace and don’t let him off the hook. The crumbled hut sits lifelessly behind me. The hut that had just been cradling such a tender connection—something I had never experienced before. Not like that. Luke quickens…
Chapter 11 “Reaching Across Worlds” Faces cave in all around me. Everywhere I look, I see the same thing. Me. Everything. I wanted to see my parents, but all I see is me. My head spins, my hand retracts from the wall. Frost bites at my finger tips and something shocks me to my…
Chapter 10 “Mom, Dad, and Ben” I weightlessly float through a deep blue sea. I tumble slowly and feel completely free. My teal surroundings swirl to a deep purple. Specks of stardust flicker around me. I feel the soft sensation on my feet and legs, trickling to my chest. Stars run across my legs…
Chapter 9 “A Tale Across the Galaxy” Chirps from plump porgs whistle in the distance, muffled from the sound of waves and wind. I sit on a stone step—one of the steep ones I’ve had to climb day in and day out to try to figure out what’s going on here with Luke and…
Chapter 8 “Trusting the Enemy” She doesn’t know. Why haven’t I told her yet? She still thinks… No, I did. I can’t think I didn’t. He’ll find out…He can’t find out… I rack my brain for the right answer, but I can’t find it. My hands clench my head. They’re shaking. My gloves are…
