When a Veela Cries—outtakes and rejected material

The following is material that I rejected for my story. I'm posting it here for two reasons: (1) I figured some people would want to read the extra material, and (2) it would stop me from going back and re-editing the material back in, in a few places where I now wish I hadn't edited the material out. Enjoy, and leave reviews on your thoughts. I'd love to hear them.
