“Yes, I’m insane,” I growled. “And as long as I’m still breathing, I’ll kill him.”

“Selene,” I snapped, glaring at her, “don’t give me that heartbroken, disappointed look. You make me sick.”

“Fine. You asked for it,” she said coldly. “Tie him up and cripple his legs. Let’s see if he still wants to kill.”

With that, she turned and walked away.

“Selene, you’re not human. You’re a monster!”

“What are you all waiting for? Do it!” she barked over her shoulder.

Panic surged through me. Somehow, I broke free from the restraints and bolted out the door. That’s when the hospital called, my father had passed away.

The news hit me like a brick wall. I froze and that split second of stillness gave them the chance to catch me.

They tied me down, pinning me so tightly I couldn’t move.

I shut my eyes in despair.

Bang!

The sound of a gunshot rang out. My eyes flew open. I knew she had come.
