"Adriane wait."

But I didn't.

I was done.

For good.

Forever.

I dashed into the house even though I knew he wasn't following me.
I was feeling all sorts of nothing right now, intense nothing, vague nothing, deep and haunting nothing.
It was an eerie feeling really.

The moment I barged in I saw Latifah.
She was staring at me with wide teary eyes.
She didn't need to say anything.
I knew she had heard everything.

I'm so sorry dear.
Her eyes seemed to tell me.

I didn't need or want any pity right now. But she wasn't to blame here, it's not her fault and she's been kind to me.

So I just gave her a small but forced smile and walked past her and then went to the kitchen. I heard her footsteps retreat and leave the house, most likely to join Damon on the lawn.
I could still feel him, he hadn't left.
He still stood in that same spot I left him in.
I pushed him out of my head.

I rummaged through the drawers till I found what I was looking for.

After about five minutes I found it.
I grabbed it and headed upstairs.

Just before I shut my door I heard arguing voices from outside, the main door was still open.

"Why Damon!? Why? Why do you push her away like that? Believe me if you keep this up you are going to die alone!"

There was silence from his end.

Shocker.

"You know what your problem is? You're scared. You have this irrational fear of loving because everyone you have ever loved died."

"I am not scared of anything." he suddenly snapped.
"I just don't do love anymore, I can't love."

I shut the door and blocked the voices out.
I can't possibly listen to anymore of this nonsense.

I walked over to my bed and sat on it.
I opened the container and poured the contents into my hand.

Pretty pink pills.
About twenty of them.

My wolf growled at me.
But I didn't care. I ignored her tugging at my senses to let her out.
Then I popped them in.

All of them.

Then I smiled, and welcomed the end.

****

I'm so sorry things had to end this way but I just couldn't take it anymore, I just needed-

I dropped my pen and hid the sheet of paper immediately when someone barged into my room.

Surprise surprise.

"I know this is your house and all, but its still very rude walking into a room without knocking. Kindly get out."

My face was expressionless and hard.
At least that's how I hoped it was.

"Come with me." Is all he said.

And I almost burst out into laughter.

Almost.

But I stopped myself when I saw his serious expression. He was fully dressed now and not covered in blood.

Oh what the hell could he possibly want?
I lifted a brow at him.
"I'm not going anywhere with you."

Ever.

My voice was monotone, I wanted to go back to writing my letter.

I could see he was getting a bit impatient.
"Look, I can decide to carry you downstairs or I could also decide to let you walk like a decent being, either way, you're coming with me."
