00:26congratulations alpha i didn't cry i didn't scream not a single tear because in five days i'd be gone
00:35two days ago i drank death bloom draft once it hit my heart would stop my scent would fade and

00:48border to clearwater county and find caleb three years ago my father pinned me against the wall
00:54he gave me a choice either enter a mating contract with silas and help him take the throne or he'd
00:59wipe caleb's pack off the map tonight i nodded my only condition once silas was crowned my father
01:06would give me the poison and i would fake my death and leave elena and i share the same father

06:35i stared at the ceiling i said nothing liam put the bowl down he stood by the bed for a
06:42long time

11:05and pointed at elena save elena derek ordered his men to take elena down she threw herself into silas's
11:12arms derek turned to me goodbye my little moon silver crossbow bolts shot out of the trees punching
11:19straight through his chest but with his dying breath he lunged forward and pushed me off the tower i fell
11:25crack a sickening snap ripped through my spine silas dropped to his knees beside me and roared for the
11:32heels a few feet away elena collapsed her blood reeked of wolfsbane silas what did he force me to

15:00upright my vision flooding red what the did you just say the ice cellar is empty elena went down at
15:06midnight said she wanted to say goodbye alone we stood the guards down when the shift changed this
15:11morning the room was empty elena a guttural snarl tore from deep in my chest i grabbed my hunting
15:17knife off the wall and stormed out pack members scattered the moment they saw me my scent was pure
15:22murder they hit the ground heads down not one of them daring to look up i kicked elena's door clean
15:27off its hinges the comb slipped from her fingers and clattered to the floor simus what are you doing
15:33i crossed the room in two strides and pressed the blade to her throat where is my mate what are
15:38you
15:38talking about i went to pay my respects last night i was only there 10 minutes i will ask you

15:51corpse

16:01who gave you the right to touch her who told you to put her in the ground
16:07dig her up now go liam burst a minute later caked in mud and dropped to his knees
16:14alpha the coffin is empty nothing inside but stones i turned slowly my blood red eyes locked onto elena
16:22where did you dump her she broke completely i had the omagas throw her into rotwood forest
16:30she's dead she's the corpse what are you doing standing guard over her i am your luna
16:37how dare you
16:40you throw her away like she was trash the rotwood forest the stench of decay hit us before we even
16:46reached the tree leaf my guards gap a few doubled over and vomited onto the dead leaves i smelled nothing
16:51i felt nothing i threw myself into the pit of corpses i clawed through the filth with my bare hands
16:59rotting flesh stuck to my fingers jagged bones sliced my palms open but i didn't feel a thing
17:05alpha stop let us search you can't do this i shove him off get away we dug from dawn until
17:13the last light
17:14bled across the horizon and then i saw it in a dark corner half buried beside a pile of fresh
17:19kills was a
17:20scrap of pale blue fabric her flannel shirt the one i gave her last winter the cloth was torn to
17:26shreds
17:27soaked with mud and blood but there were no bones no body i collapsed to my knees in that sea
17:33of death
17:33clutching the stained fabric to my chest after back my head and how liam and the guards dropped to their
17:39knees as one when i finally returned to the pack house i gave my final order strip elena of the
17:45luma
17:45title throw her in the silver cells and let her rot three years passed the elders had backed me into
17:52the
17:52council hall again alpha a pack cannot stand without its luna she is its heart we need an air i
18:01stared at
18:01the polished surface of the table my mate is dead there will be no new luna elder thomas swallowed hard
18:08but pressed on we all mourn her alpha but she is gone you are our leader you have a duty
18:16to this pack
18:16i snatched the list of potential from his hand and hurled it across the room the next person who
18:22dares say the word luna to me gets their throat ripped out personally i stalked out of the hall and
18:28went to her room i kept it exactly as she'd left it the pack mates cleaned it daily but nothing
18:32was ever
18:32moved her soft blue blanket was still draped over a cushion beside it lay a half-read novel the corner
18:38of the page curled up from her habit of chewing on it when she was lost in thought it was
18:43as if she
18:43just stepped out for a walk as if she might return at any moment a week later long after midnight
18:48liam entered my office he said a cup of hot broth on my desk and spoke quietly behind me alpha
18:53it's late
18:54you really should get some rest liam do you think she hated me she should have every single time
19:00i chose elena over her when she was poisoned i didn't believe her when they threw her in the pit
19:05i stood by and watched her friend died because of me and i never even asked what happened that last
19:09time on the tower i wanted to choose her i know i did but the name i called out it
19:14was still elena's
19:15alpha i think she cared for you it's just i wish she had hated me hate is a feeling liam
19:22at least then i would know she still felt something for me at all
