Will the bond between Julie and Daniel be broken? Will their love survive? Will the werewolf army finish off the remaining Lycans? Will Richard make Julie his forever?
In this exciting sequel the only one's who are safe are the humans.
The sound of ghostly drums began beating all around me, drawing my soul into another realm or dimension. I was not sure which one. The only thing I was sure of was the fact I was in pain. Does death come so easily to those that choose it? I wondered. It was a question that seemed to stand out in my mind. My body and mind were in complete torture as the war raged inside of me. Killing me slowly. Indefinitely. Killing me beyond all knowledge of the present or past. Even the future is not certain at this point.
My agony was my own demise. My decision. My choice. I barely noticed the days as they swept past me as my body continued its war. Visions swept across my mind of war, a battle actually, between a Lycan and a dark being. Was it real? Or was I actually dead and caught in the infinity of hell?
The already tortured heart inside my body, burned beyond recognition. A woman scorned. Finally, it stopped beating. Yes, this was the end. I thought. The last ounces of precious blood was now squeezed from my heart. The pain was intolerable as my mouth opened to gasp for the last moments of air. I wanted to scream. To cry out for help in some way. But I remained silent in my agony.
Moments of the recent events flashed before my eyes. A glimpse of all the madness. The deception. My mind was now flooded with the lies which had brought all this to a head. Yes, there was one unsettling factor which I held onto like a safety net. It was not over yet. The softly spoken words by an angel were the only glimpse of hope. The hope which drove me through this agony. "I love you, Julie." His words whispered against my neck as they etched themselves in my heart forever. His love for me was far greater than I could have ever imagined. It was patient, kind and everlasting. The kind of love you would gladly die for.
All of the darkness that had clouded my mind ended abruptly. Clarity hit me like a strong northern wind, chilling me to the bone. Yes, in one unfathomable moment I realized my life was not as it had seemed.
