EPILOGUE

AMELIA POV

Xavier and I were doomed from the beginning, I know that now.

In the end it didn't matter what tore us apart.

It didn't matter that it was me, or that it was Eric or anyone or anything.

That's the thing about Xavier and I - we were never meant to be strong enough to survive together.

This isn't the kind of love you get over or move on from.

This is the kind of loves that destroys you completely

I had him all to myself, all I had to say was the word.

Yes.

That's all it would take to be in his arms, to have his lips on mine.

But I can't. I can't lose myself in him, become completely addicted to him, give myself up for him.

Because eventually, when that initial fire burns out, I will be lost in the darkness.

I can't go back to him, no matter how beautiful he makes it seem, no matter how much I know I'll be full of happiness.
