LOVE IN VENGEANCE
I dressed myself slowly, I slid a slim blade beneath the folds of fabric, pressing it against my thigh as my last resort.
But my true weapon was one ring I had stole from Perrone, coated with a poison no healer could trace. Just the faintest scratch, and blood would turn against the body within minutes. No chance of survival. My fangs were forbidden, they would burn the palace down searching for the culprit if any mark of a werewolf is seen. The ring was the only way.
I slipped it onto my finger. “Mother.. Father.. be with me,” I whispered.
The guards arrived moments later. Two of them flanked me, their armor scraping, the metallic clink echoing down the stone corridors.
