“That’s right. I have never loved you. I saved you, coaxed you, and called you my wife… all because you’re strong and could keep me alive. In this cannibalistic apocalypse, emotions are the most useless thing. Only self-interest keeps us alive. Now that you remember everything, do whatever you want with me. Kill me if you like.” Even as I said that, my nails dug deep into my palms. I couldn’t accept it. Was this really the ending someone like me deserved? Weren’t the truly vile ones Callie and Dan?

Just tired wolves finally allowed to breathe again. The battle was over. The scars would remain. But we survived – together. And as long as we had each other, we could face anything.

“And we always will.” Back at the penthouse, Alex ran to Sarah as she entered, throwing himself into her arms. “I knew you’d come back!” Sarah held him tightly. “We’re safe, baby. Always safe.” Damon joined them, pressing a hand on Sarah’s back, then on Alex’s head. “Nothing can break us. Not her, not anyone. We survive.
