Chapter 179
Sheila's point of view
I had no way of knowing exactly how many hours had gone by since my mother's spell room was located underground in the
castle. But I knew with the long, torturous hours that had wandered by, it had to be dusk by now.
I inhaled, resting against the wooden frame of the bed. Killian still hasn't returned, and I haven't seen Kaiser nor Valerie since I
had woken up. The only people that had wandered around were Lorenzo and Zena when they came to fetch my blood, and I
could feel Leonardo's presence behind those doors, but he couldn't muster the strength to face me again.
I closed my eyes, and tears rolled out. They never stopped coming, even so now that I could feel the end was near. I had made a
choice already, one Killian would never forgive me for, but I would never forgive myself, knowing I was the cause of so many
deaths including my family. I had chosen to just let go. To stop fighting, to stop trying, and for once accept my fate.
I burst out in tears; I couldn't hold it in anymore. What I was about to do was the hardest thing I had ever done. And I was not
okay with it, but I had no choice. It was either me or everyone I loved.
