Summary
"Reject you, Grace Bright, as my mate and queen," Cole, my boyfriend, finished, but I was already shaking my head.
"What?!" I screeched, clawing at his hands in a desperate attempt to get free. He was mad! He was crazy!
"W-what are you---?!"
My voice was cut off when his fingers tightened around my throat, cutting off my air supply. And less than a second later, I realized that perhaps it was for the best anyway. Because the pain that exploded in my chest made me want to scream to the high heavens. It felt as if something was ripped out of me. Not just my heart, but everything inside of me was torn to pieces. Every nerve ending was on fire and despite being unable to breathe, I felt tears forming in my eyes.
And they had nothing to do with Cole's hands wrapped around my neck...
What the hell just happened...?
