Meriya's POV~
The entire day I could not think of anything else. It was buzzing in my mind like a swarm of bees, loud and restless, and all I could see before my eyes was Kael—and the way he might look at me if only I could shine brightly enough to catch his gaze.

My alphas. The ones who should have been mine long ago.
It has been a year, an entire year, since that bitch died, and still their eyes carry mourning for her, still their hearts are shackled to her memory, as if she had not already stolen enough when she was alive.
"Rot in your grave, Selene," I hissed, quiet enough that no one else could hear. "Rot and choke on the worms until there's nothing left. You've stolen enough. Enough!"
