Tonight was a mistake that I should have never allowed to happen and what I was about to do made me the worst person in the world. I packed all my stuff up really quick and walked over to the table to write Finny a note. "Finny, I'm sorry but something came up and I have to leave town. The room is paid for the rest of the week. I will pay for more if you need it. I didn't want to leave you like this, but this is urgent. Tonight was amazing and I will never forget it. You were perfect and don't ever let anyone tell you any different. -Colt"

George replied smoothly. Elaine released her lips into a soft smile. She hummed out a soft 'Mmh' and gave a short chuckle then she walked away without another word. # By the late evening, Miranda was dressed in her uniform and ready to go. She applied two strokes of mascara to her eyelashes, and a swipe of her favorite shade of red lipstick. She spritz on her perfume just in time for her aunt to knock on the door and remind her that it was time to go. Grabbing her phone, keys, and small backpack, Miranda exited the shed and was once again met with Aunt May, who greeted her with a bottle of water and a small bowl filled with fruit.

Every word hit like a punch to the gut. She shook with rage, hands clamped tight around my throat. Her bloodshot eyes screamed murder. I gasped, air slipping away fast. Right as everything started to blur, Mike kicked her off. "Stupid bitch! You trying to ruin everything? If she dies, how the hell are we supposed to get money from the Felton family?" Cecilia hit the floor hard, shrieking like a maniac. Mike didn't even look at her. Just turned to me. "Chill. You're safe—for now. At least until Terrance Felton shows up with the cash. You two must be something. He's offering a whole billion for you. Not bad, huh?"

"Ms. Hawthorn, I'm happy to inform you that you've passed our interview. You're welcome to join the school anytime." "Alright," I replied. "Considering your condition, would you like me to request a delayed start on your behalf?" "Thank you, but no. I can't wait even one more day." After ending the call, I drove back to the hotel and packed my things, leaving for the Stormcrest pack under the cover of night. Before deactivating my phone number, I sent one last message to Lucas. "Please take good care of Finn." From that moment on, the Moonhowl pack had nothing to do with me.

"Every time I see the words in here, it reminds me of how I loved you, and it makes me feel sick and ashamed." "Give it back to me!" Ryan dodged my hand and ripped the diary from me with a sharp tug. "You want it?" He immediately ripped the diary to shreds as he listened to me, tossing the pieces in the air. "There, now I've given it to you!" I crouched on the ground, looking up as the pieces of the destroyed diary fluttered down like snowflakes. Suddenly, I started laughing louder and louder. It was over. It was really over now.

I said and went out of the back door but froze. Oh, my God!!

Lake's POV Crashing into the sand jolted something back into place inside me, like my brain suddenly rebooted. Everything hit me: the storm, the water, and the Mer King. And then Kairos. I scrambled out of his arms, gasping, my heart thundering in my chest. His voice reached me, but it sounded so far away. “It’s okay. You’re safe now-”

I refused to let William's driver pick me up. Instead, I just stared at the door, hoping to see William walking in anytime soon. Yet, he never bothered looking for me that night. Only when the sun rose did I receive a notification from an entertainment tabloid on my phone. It read, "#Rich scion William Blackburn spotted on vacation with his lover." In the video, William and Elaine were seen holding hands together as they took a romantic stroll along the beach. The love he had for her was practically written in his eyes.

Was there still anything that could be identified? It seemed Harriet had found something in my hand. Bit by bit, she pulled it out. It was our wedding ring. I remembered that as the fire broke out, I had taken it off and gripped it tightly in my hand, fearing it would be destroyed in the flames. Harriet collapsed to the floor, her face drained of all color. "You said you wouldn't die. How could you go back on your word? I thought you'd be fine. I didn't mean to get you killed…"

"Hope you get everything you wish for." I gave her a small smile, checked into a nearby hotel, dropped my stuff, and headed out for food. And that's when I saw them—Jasper, Natalie, and both his parents. Natalie was flashing a Patek Philippe watch, glowing like she just won the jackpot. Didn't exactly scream terminal illness.
