VALERIE.
Life has changed a lot and with time, the pain becomes bearable. I lost the man | loved, yet | am still bound to
the man who killed him.
A man who somehow always makescurious about what goes on within his mind. It’s been five years, yet he
has not once spoken a word, almost as if he’s taken a vow of silence.
Cara was exiled from the pack when her sentence was over, like Annalise, but Zade? He still remains in prison...
his sentence will be completed when | deem it fulfilled. A decision Sebastian had decided to leave towhen he
himself wanted to tear him apart.
It’s been on my mind, yet despite no pressure from anyone, I'm not sure what to
do...
I had told Zaia to make the decision, or even Sebastian, but both said it was my

call and stuck by it.
No one knows that, but... knowing that it's in my hands, | feel conflicted. Deep down | feel he’s served his
sentence but at the stime, I'm not sure... Not sure if one can ever serve enough tfor taking someone's
life, but he has behaved in the last five years.
He won't eat or let anyone administer the vitamin serum. Yet, when | go down there, he remains still allowing me
to do what | need to... Simply watching me... everyone knew it... knew that he would only behave foreven if
they didn’t
know that we are mates...
For the last few months, I’ve wondered about it more so... but now, seeing Zaia happy with Sebastian, I'm taking
it as a sign that it’s tto move on from the past too.
“Are you ok, Val?” Zaia asks as she tugs free from Sebastian, who is clearly ready to fuck her right here if he
could. I'm happy they're together again because they have always loved only one another.
“I'm fine,” | say, smiling at her, but she tilts her head, knowingbetter than
that.
“Talk to me, if you like.” She says gently, | love how she always respects my

boundaries.
“It's about Zade,” | admit, turning the heat beneath the grilled chicken strips to low.
“What is it?” she asks with concern, a wave of sadness clouding her eyes.
| stare at the blue flame, frowning slightly.
“I think we should let him out, let him leave the pack... even if that means under curfew or whatever,” | say
quietly. “I don’t want to have to watch him any longer. | want him gone.”
Sebastian pauses, and | know he’s listening as he turns back to face us.
“Despite what he’s done, he did stand down and has remained in prison for the last five years. | want to move on
too. | don’t want to have to visit him every few days to make sure he lives.” | say quietly, there were times |
never visited him, and when he fell unconscious, someone would give him the nutrition he needed but | hated
seeing him in that state, although he is a killer, I'm nothing like him and | have compassion even for those who
don’t deserve it.
“I think it’s a good decision. He's behaved, and maybe he can go somewhere where he can try to find a purpose

I'm glad she’s reassuringand not just because | said it, this makesfeel better...
I nod, and she hugstightly. | close my eyes, hugging her back. I'm grateful for both her and Atticus. They've
both always been there for me.
Jai... if you were here, | know you'd be in agreement with me, because you were always forgiving, no matter
what someone did, you always gave them chances... always saw the best in people, even when | didn’t think
speople had any good in them, you did...
I'm doing the right thing, right Jai?
A sudden sharp wind blows, swirling around me, and | freeze, pulling away from Zaia as | look up at the sky. The
glowing moon shines down onand | stand there frozen as the wind stills.
| suddenly smile and nod.
Yes. | am doing the right thing....
