she said firmly. I swallowed hard. “It’s going to feel that way.” “I know. But saving doesn’t always look like hugging. Sometimes saving means staying where it hurts so you don’t set off a trap.” That phrase stuck with me. Because it was the exact opposite of everything Maxon had taught me. He had turned my love into a button. If I pressed it, I obeyed. Selene was telling me that loving could also mean resisting the button. We set off in silence.

A strange, cold recognition settling deep in my chest. It was Carlo. Dominic’s jaw tightened. “That bastard…” he muttered under his breath. “Oh non... Did he found me?” I asked quietly. He did not answer. His eyes were locked furiously on Carlo. Carlo glanced in our direction briefly and carelessly. His gaze passed over me—Without recognition. I had to hold my gas when I realized he didn't recognize me because I was no longer the woman he knew. No longer Bella. And that—Saved me. But Dominic—He had seen enough.

I spat out a mouthful of blood and winced as I turned my head toward the passenger seat.

There is no way she would save you before me."

Uncle Max lowered his head and sighed. "What is salvation?" I asked. "Perer," Uncle Max said softly. "Salvation is the process of being saved. It is the process of being saved from eternal damnation. Hell!" "So, if I die now, I am going straight to hell?" "I can't answer that, Perer." "But I need an answer for me to know where I am heading to when I die," I insisted. "You are going straight to hell," Uncle Max answered. "Can I still be saved, Uncle Max?"

” David gives a speech in front of his five kids. Anne says in disbelief, 'You mean to say,' 'You and mother were from that religious organization.' You weren't a Christian who had previously been saved?” Anne enquires. “Of course, we are original born-again Christians. We left the religious life when we met, and after doing more research, we learned that our faith in Jesus Christ can only save our souls from our sinfulness, not to become a priest or nuns. Although that can also be one way to save us because we already have faith as religious, but additionally, faith comes first before good works.” David explains this to all of his children, who are now all working adults.

An unwise decision, I think, as I glance at his extended hand- a gesture to show trust, to form a connection. It's a pity he’s just offered his hand to The Devil, to the very man who will soon be taking his last breath. “Levi” I answer, my voice is calm, controlled, as I grasped his hand in mine. The contact is brief, but it’s enough to have his face imprinted at the back of my mind.
