Chapter 7 of Cursed: Demon's Daughter is ready to read!
In this chapter, Manny and Max learn about Constance's dark past, Manny
makes his own confession, and Constance remembers when Dro told their
parents her secret...

I figured it was time to shed some light on some of Constance's past darkness. She's done things she isn't proud of, but she did them to keep her and Dro safe. Manny is of the personal belief that anyone can change, and he appreciates honesty more than anything else. No matter how rough around the edges she is and used to be, Constance never really enjoyed hurting anyone, mostly because of Dro. How Constance appears in Dro's eyes matters more to her than almost anything in her life, but some habits aren't easy to break.
I also enjoyed writing the end of the flashback where young Dro finally gives up her secret to her parents. She doesn't like being seen as a freak when her family is so devoted to her. Dro's powers are dangerous and unstable, and it's hard to imagine how scary it must be to reveal them, even to your parents and your sister. It takes a lot of courage to do that, and despite how scared Dro is, she knows she has to grow up and face her own reality– that she'll never be normal, no matter what she does.
So, that's the latest chapter! Next month I'll be posting two chapters instead of one, since there's a lot of excitement coming up. I love getting feedback, so feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you think! :)
