Chapter 186.Never

• I blinked up at her. I couldn’t speak. The disbelief and the fury that welled in me took my breath away.

• No, I didn’t want to believe it. I couldn’t believe it. That woman, Estella, couldn’t have been here. It was supposed to be Candido. It’s always supposed to be Candido. I looked back, hoping to find Candido, hoping to get some idea that he’d ordered her to save me, that he had something to do with it, but he wasn’t where he’d been a moment ago. He was leading another group to fight back the vampires still trapped in the barrier.
