A thought echoed in my mind. We can never be together in this life.
Because | could not forgive myself.

their revenge.
But | was not weak... | let them take out their anger on me, but that was enough... after that I had already
decided to leave this place forever.
I had given them their revenge. And now, | only wanted distance. | only wanted silence. | only wanted never to
repeat that history again.
Even if love still existed somewhere between us, there could never be a future.

Because there was another thing that was keepingaway from them. Their love... it was not because they
truly loved me. It was because fate had tied us together. Because of that word—mate.
And that was what hurt the most.
| remembered the way their eyes had looked when they captured me, when they chained me, when they broke
eyes... the coldness, the cruelty. The way it froze my heart to the core.
That was the truth of their feelings. That was what they carried for me.
And now, when | had already decided to forgive them, when | had already chosen to bury everything and leave it
all behind, they suddenly wantedagain. They wanted to forget everything, to act like it had never happened,
only because | was their mate.

The thought cut throughlike a knife.
My chest ached, my breath caught. Their mother’s face cback to me, the memory of what had happened
that night, and the screams that still echoed in my mind. The guilt crushedagain, heavy as it had always
been.
How could they calltheir mate and act as if nothing had happened? How could they let that one word erase
the blood | had spilled?
| lowered my eyes to his hand still clinging to mine. My vision blurred, and | felt tears sting at the corner of my
eyes.
So even as Lucian cried in his sleep, whispering words that sounded like devotion, all I could feel was pain. Pain
that no matter what he said, no matter what they claimed, none of it could erase what | had done. None of it
could erase the truth.
We could never be.
Not in this life.
