Chapter 40: Seeing The Past & The Future

Lucy sat back feeling completely astonished. Part of her felt bad for Aleksandr and all he’d been through but part of her could only view him as the monster she feared she’d become. She had no love for her creator - he had also been a part of a rebel group. She knew nothing about him and could barely remember his face but the vampires that she had grown close to - well that was a different story. She imagined being in the same situation with Celeste, Veronika or Noah. Would she be able to turn against them? Sacrifice them for the greater good? She didn’t need to think long about it, she knew the answer. She could never do what Aleksandr had done. 

She started to become more anxious and worried. If Aleksandr could turn against Orion - someone he loved dearly - for the sake of the rules, she felt there was little chance she could truly convince him to save her and Celeste.
