A GHOST OF A FRIEND

[Chapter47:Mira's Pov]

 Selene was bound to a chair, her wrist tied tightly behind her back. A bruise was already forming along her cheekbone, proof that Lorenzo hadn't been gentle when he brought her in. she lifted her chin when she saw me, her blue eyes unreadable.

 "Mira".

 I stood a few feet away, arms crossed, staring at the girl i once trusted with everything.

"I should kill you", I said flatly.

Selene didn't flinch. "then do it then".

Lorenzo leaned against the wall, his eyes cold. "oh, don't tempt me. i would be happy to handle it for her."

 She exhaled sharply, turning back to me. "You think i betrayed you," she said. "That i wanted this."

"Didn't you?" My voice was steady, but my fingers curled into a fists.

 Selene laughed but they where no humor in it." You have no idea what have been through."

I took a step closer." Then tell me. Give me one reason not to let Lorenzo finish what he started."
