“It’s me,” I sobbed suddenly, my shoulders shaking with apparent grief. “I should be blamed for
Grandmother Evelyn…”
The room fell silent, all eyes turning to me in shock. Ethan’s face darkened as he stepped
closer.
“What happened?” he asked coldly.
I cried harder, my apologies flowing freely. “Ethan, I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have called you earlier. Grandmother was convinced that I killed Lily because of that call.”
I continued explaining through my tears, “She wanted to avenge Lily, and while I was at home preparing venison stew for you, she had her guards bind me and bring me here. She was so angry with me, and her emotions were so agitated that… No matter how I tried to comfort her,
it was useless…”
I looked up at him with tear–filled eyes. “I killed Grandmother, it’s me! I’m sorry, I made you lose your grandmother. I’m a sinner!”
My voice broke with apparent remorse. “Ethan, let the enforcers take me, let me pay for Grandmother’s and Lily’s lives! That way, Olivia will feel better!”

Fury surged through me, hot and unstoppable. I lunged forward and grabbed Victoria’s throat, my fingers tightening around her slender neck.

I’m reading this and think: BITCH JUST BREAK YOUR MATE BOND AND SAY I’M NOT YOUR MATE ANYMORE!...
I swear to you if Olivia goes back to Ethan and not ends up with Lukas, I’ll drop this book....

I can’t wait until Victoria finally gets caught up....
The story would be better if it didn’t drag on. Olivia’s character eh , sounds like a broken record...
