The Banished Mate: Awakening The Silver Wolf
The maid was asleep, her body curled beneath the thin blanket, her face soft, peaceful, innocent.
Lila’s heart twisted, her fingers trembling, her chest tightening as she watched her, as she fought against the jealousy, the anger, the pain.
She looks like her... she looks just like her...
Her hand moved, swift and silent, the dagger gleaming beneath the moonlight as she plunged it into the maid’s chest, her face blank, her eyes cold, her heart empty.
The maid’s eyes flew open, her mouth opening in a silent scream, her body convulsing, her blood spilling over the white sheets, staining them crimson.
