The cruelest part was that Jerome didn't even believe I was dead. … After dinner, Jerome stood alone on the balcony with a cigarette pinched between his fingers. His other hand swiped restlessly across his phone screen.

She was declared dead in the ambulance. Meanwhile, Luke was arrested for intentional assault resulting in death. We met each other again in the visitation room. He had lost significant weight in less than one month. A patch of his hair had turned gray. He stared at me with hollow eyes, no longer the proud man I once knew. The sight of me made his eyes light up with hope. His bony hands grabbed the bars. "Help me, Bianca. I didn't mean to kill her. That wasn't what I wanted. She attacked me first. I only fought back…"

The mothers gathered in her room, trembling, as Elena read aloud from the first chapter: “There is no such thing as a finished city.”

“End this. Burn it down. Walk away.” Alex’s hand tightened on mine. “Sophia—” “I know.” Because this wasn’t just about me anymore. It never had been. The figure behind the sky watched. Waiting. I drew breath. Drew strength. Drew every broken promise back into bone. And stepped forward. To myself. To the end. To the beginning. “Let’s finish this,” I said. And she smiled.

The character didn’t die at the end, yet he lost everything, but he found himself in something that would give him happiness. a thing that will make his life move in circles.

She told me it was going to end in a few minutes, but the way I looked, it seemed to be going on for a long time. But the turning point for me was when I saw the evidence. I glanced at the completely dark photos and instantly recognized my mother. What made her there? Draco is also present, but we are unable to identify the other person, who is covered in blood and lying on the ground. It’s a male body. Could it be Rose’s husband?
