excerpt

Eve

Abelia was sitting on a hard bench in the bank of wings.

The most precious possessions of the Winged Ones were stored in this vast space, with its ceilings higher than the highest ceilings of the halls of the White Castle. Its walls were covered in a row after a row of startlingly white wings. These were virgin wings: grown from a cell. Most of these beautiful limbs would never find a master. They would stay on this wall, unmoving and untouchable, almost sacred, for centuries to come. For many generations, the bank of wings was a manifest, a statement the Winged Ones made to the world and themselves. Its practical value was vague.

Abelia’s gaze wandered across the rows of the purely white wings. It paused upon a pair of tiny wings.  Had there been a case in their history when an infant needed to have a transplantation? Abelia hadn’t heard of such.  She wondered why her people continued to keep the bank of wings so meticulously stocked. The only case there was an acute need for the transplantation of wings was when Tauria had needed it. No one lost their limbs these days.

Abelia was coming to the sanctuary since she was a child. She remembered her awe when she had entered this place for the first time. She had come with her class: her parents didn’t believe in separating themselves and their children from the crowd. Back then, she hadn’t expressed her admiration verbally. She hadn’t even thought about doing it. She had stayed reserved and dignified during the excursion, just as it was expected from a Ruler’s daughter.

The children – they were six to eight at that time – had walked in pairs solemnly. At the same time, Doctor Slythe explained the molecular method of growing wings and its significant differences from cloning. Abelia had listened carefully: science was her favourite subject. But in this case, she had also marvelled at what she had seen around her. Since that first visit, she came here regularly. The feeling she had experienced being among the rows of bodyless wings had been so overwhelming that she had used every opportunity to repeat it. She just sat there, in front of the walls covered with human-created wings – the achievement of her nation that had secured their survival – and thought about everything she couldn’t talk about with others.

Abelia had come here as a child, then as a teenager. She had come here after she got married when she realised that something was wrong with her, with Mael and the whole arrangement of their perfect from the outside matrimony. She came here now. It was the only place where she could confess privately that she was happy. She was happier now than she had been in years.

She loved the feeling of solitude when she returned to her quarters after a day of meaningful activities. She loved the feeling of doing something meaningful. She didn’t feel lonely when the empty rooms greeted her with silence. She didn’t feel abandoned when no one, often not even Sonrisa, was there to talk to her and ask her about her day. She hadn’t noticed that at first, but when she had, she was taken aback, ashamed even. She soon recovered, realising that it was the way she was. She had been like this before, and she wouldn’t change.

They are forced to exist side by side. Can they find a way to live together?

About the Author

M. L. Stark has been married for over 20 years and has adult children and grandchildren. She based certain elements of the story on real-life events. When Stark was middle-aged, she underwent a divorce and met a new man who mentally abused her. These experiences and her survival have empowered her to write stories about surviving cruelty and abuse.

“I am telling the story not of what I thought I was meant to be born into, but as the survivor I have become after abuse. I am also hoping to connect with people and deter them from facing a toxic relationship in their lives by sharing my own real-life events.” Stark says.

M. L. Stark dares to discuss what it is like to be in an abusive relationship, and shows the power in embracing the experience, prevailing and ultimately recovering from the abuse, escaping the psychopath and helping others tap into their empathy and prevail over similar hazards.
