The Three Lives Of Alix St Pierre Novels & Stories

Alice was taken away, but she wouldn't receive the death penalty. However, my mother seemed to have gone mad as she went around hiring the best lawyers, determined to see Alice dead. Liam, too, was relentless as he worked tirelessly on the case to ensure her execution. Whenever I chanced upon him, he was a mess. It was terrifying. Finally, under their influence, Alice was sentenced to death. On the day of the execution, my mother wore her best outfit and bribed people to ensure she could watch it unfold. Thanks to her, I was dragged along to witness this bloody scene.

“We’ve been competing for lifetimes. It would be strange to stop now.” That pulled a laugh out of me before I could stop it. For the first time in a very long while, it came easily. The past was still there. Some things always would be. But it no longer weighed the same. After three ruined lives, Ivy and I were no longer fighting over the same wolf. At last, we were walking toward lives that belonged to us.

Pierre replied gently. "Pierre, life is beautiful for you! You can walk, run, live freely! I can’t. I can’t even lift a damn foot without help! Don’t you think it would’ve been better if you had just let me go?" she said, her voice breaking with frustration. "No, Alexia. You don’t understand. Life is beautiful. I am happy with you by my side. You will never understand, but I have always loved you. You are my life. You are my world," Pierre said, pressing a kiss to her forehead.
