394-1 Reject You Alpha King Corbin
I didn't look away even when Shaun kept shouting in pain and crying as they shot arrows at him. Corbin was also there. He had worn an enormous hat and glasses. I assume it was to cover his eyes. He must be crying for his father. That's the thing. No matter what they do, there is a part of us that cries when we watch our loved ones in pain. I did cry for my mother, but only because I was concerned about why she didn't take other people's feelings into consideration. I was upset that my mother turned out to be so evil.
From an outside perspective, it seemed like justice had been served. But something felt empty. It was the spot that was supposed to be filled with Thiago. He should have been here to witness his parent's murderer getting punished, but that chance got stolen away from him when Corbin let Moana into the academy.
"I know you will have nightmares, but I hope you can find peace now," Janet held my hand and walked me out of the ground.
After losing everything, I have become just a human among such powerful creatures. If I saw anything terrifying or if someone growled at me, I would have nightmares. Just like how a normal human would. Those went into extinction until I became one.

"Enya! I don't understand why you are so angry with me. I didn't even try to stop you from collecting evidence. So what is it that I did so wrong that you could go with Lazio but not come with me?" He walked closer again, asking me the same question I have read in his eyes since the beginning of the trial.
"You are going to ask me that? You don't know yourself what you did?" I turned to him, smiling weakly.
"I really don't know what is my fault," He answered, taking off his glasses and exposing his red and swollen eyes. I was right! He seemed to have gone through a lot of heartaches after his father was convicted.
"The witch you brought into the academy stole my Thiago from me," I shouted the instant I talked about him. I had kept this anger and heartbreak inside me all this time. I just couldn't find a shoulder so perfect that I could rely on, which I could cry on.
