Derek took a step closer to them, the space between them feeling smaller and more suffocating with each movement, "That's why, once this war is over, I will erase both of your memories, so that we can go back to being a happy family like old times."
Rachel's blood ran cold at his words. The thought of having her memories erased, of being forced to forget everything, was almost too much to bear.
She thought of all the moments she had with her mother, Asher, of the pain and the healing, and the love that had started to mend her. But most of all, the true side of someone she once loved and respected as her father. She can never forget that!
For it all to be wiped away, to be reset to what Derek wanted them to be... it felt like a nightmare, a future she couldn't even imagine.
