Prologue
RPOV:
I held my daughter close to my chest as Dimitri held both of us. Was this how it was going to end? I couldn't believe that this was happening. After all of our running and hiding, she'd found us. Why did she hate me so much? What did I do to her?
"Why are you doing this mom?" I asked, looking up at her with tear filled eyes. "I didn't do anything!"
Mom looked deranged. No longer was she the put together woman I had once known. "Nothing? Nothing?! You did everything! If it weren't for you, I would have a glorious life with my best friend! But you had to come along and ruin everything!" she screeched at us.
I closed my eyes and pressed my daughter even closer, cringing back into Dimitri. I found myself praying that the official court guardians would get here because I couldn't see Janine putting us on trial.
No, if they didn't get here on time, Janine would punish us her own way.
By death.
A/N: This is just the prologue. I've been working on the first chapter, no joke, for the last two weeks but I haven't been able to write a good beginning. I'm hoping that I'll be able to update this soon, but I'm in a bit of a dry spell for writing...anyway, let me know what you think!
