Chapter 49

Ryan

I'm trudging through the forest alone. Leaving Amelia might have been the hardest thing I've ever done. I have to keep reminding myself that it's only temporary to not run back and find her.

Once Blue is with me, I will find my way back to Amelia, but there is one nagging thought that keeps coming back to me: "What if she won't love me when she finds out the ugly truth about me?"

With that thought clouding my mind, I walk through a clearing. Moonlight is coming in through the birch tree canopies, illuminating my otherwise dark path. I'm not afraid of the darkness, though—it's silly when I've become the monster lurking in the dark myself.

I'm my own worst nightmare—my heart squeezes painfully at that understanding. I hate myself, but Amelia's happy face makes it worth living.

Even if I'm a monster, I want to keep Amelia safe, make sure that Courtney doesn't get to murder her.

Not that Amelia is defenseless—she is a total badass wit
