LOGIN[Elise’s POV]I stare at the goddess while she waits for me to decide what my next path will be. Of course, remaining here where there was no more suffering or pain was ideal, but I couldn’t just leave Serenity and those who I cared for back on earth to fend for themselves. However, even if I went b
In this moment, I’m absolutely certain that this is, in fact, the afterlife, but I’m a little confused. Why was I here in Nirvana when I truly belonged in hell, suffering for all of my misdeeds?“Because I have summoned you here.”Gasping, I jump up and whirl around, searching for the one who has sp
[Rosco’s POV]I wrap my arm around Denali and pull her against me as she stares at her father’s unmoving form. Where we touch, I can feel all of her emotions and know that what she did couldn’t have been easy but was necessary.“He got what was coming to him.” I murmur, kissing her cheek. “Don’t thi
[William’s POV]The next day, I stand between Jose and Charlie while members of Rosco’s pack work to prepare pallets for Elise and Uncle Hamilton. Once they’re in place, Rosco comes forward with a torch in hand. He doesn’t speak as he begins to set the pallets ablaze.As Elise’s body goes up in flam

[Elise’s POV] I step out onto the grounds and take a deep breath while listening to the sound of footsteps behind me. Turning, I watch as Marty and William make their way toward me. “Why are you following me?” I ask, eyeing them curiously. “Because you dashed out of there like a bat out of hell.”
