Chapter 40 Shattered

• BONNIE ALVAREZ
• I was in stage three: denial. I had to go through shock then emotions then denial. When Maddox's lips embraced mine, all I could think about was the weight on my shoulders and on my heart.
• Although I changed what he felt, I couldn't brush off what I had gone through to stay strong enough to get my whole revenge without any remains left. Once it has been done, I was done. That was what I promised myself and Maddox seemed to get the hint when I didn't kiss back.
