Epilogue
With the passing days, Abby finally began to form a bond with her mother. They were both alone in the world with no one else to turn to. Therapy helped heal Lisa's old scars and Abby's fresh ones.
Abby never truly trusted people, despite her attempts. Jackson's betrayal would forever remain lodged in her heart. He had molded her; created her—even from his jail cell. He had been manipulating them from afar by tormenting Lisa and dragging her away for the first few days of her life. Her bond with her father was leading her down a dark and twisted path.
An accident had been her only saving grace. Fear for her mother had saved both their lives and stopped Jackson's cold-hearted revenge for eternity.
Both of her fathers had been buried on the same day. As she reflected on the past, Abby kicked herself for having ignored the gift that had been in front of her all along—Philippe's unconditional love. She had been his daughter from the beginning and all she had done was resent him for a man that was nothing more than a deranged killer.
The guilt threatened to consume her, but her mother needed her. They need each other to get through the darkness and lies and return to the light.
Tragedy had a funny way of fixing things.
Author's Notes:
Not the world's best ending, but I'm exhausted and I was finished with it. I'll probably end up replacing it at some time, but it will do for now. I'm out of ideas for this story and I wanted to tie it tonight before my life disappears again.
This might be my last story for a while. I'm going a hiatus soon for an undetermined length of time. I'm going to try to post some stories at some point, but I'm not sure when. With my school schedule, I'm probably going to end up finishing an entire story before I post. I'm working on a prequel to the entire series that details Jackson's slide into madness. After that, the 'Obsession' series will be officially finished.
I'm also working on three or more new stories too.
Thanks for all the reviews and support! Abby is a strange character, but psychological trauma from having that 'hole in your heart' can really mess you up. I speak from experience. She's hard to pity, and I'm not writing her in a pitiful manner. It's her personality that makes her difficult and that's how she always was in my head. She's not a very caring person.
