Eira's POV
Jason left in anger when I refused to listen to him. Why would I? I never asked for his fake concern. I would not die from wounds like these, and their purpose of fucking me would still be served.
They could hurt me, insult me with their filthy words, and I would take it. But I could not stomach false concern, not from them or anyone. So fuck it.
Standing beneath the shower, I let the water wash away the exhaustion clinging to my skin. The vivid memories of Alice's death surfaced last night like my worst nightmare and how I wished to reverse time at that moment.
Watching Lucian on the brink of death had felt almost as unbearable as seeing Alice die and both the deaths were going to be my fault.
