The day came to an end with Evelina not knowing where she should go.
People at the center of Eldham began to disperse when there was nothing left from the fire but ashes, left portions of woods, metal cuffs, and the dust of the vampire she once knew.
Evelina wanted to scream. To be angry at everyone.
To be angry at Raoul.
Why did he not think of escaping? Of fighting for himself? If he had been caught, why did he not manipulate their minds into thinking that he was human? She wanted to blame him for his own demise.
But she could not.
Because Raoul… he was different from all of them. That was all that she could say.
She did not exactly hate him. She just did not pay much attention to him, thinking that he was too stupid to be someone from the family. Yet getting to see him in Eldham, thinking of all those moments that he had proved her wrong… it made her hate herself, black taint of regret filling her heart.
