Kiera's POV
'Should I just kill myself?'
Beep… Beep… Beep...
Another had died.
My family.
My only family was dying by the second.
The beeping echoed in my mind, never stopping.
Their life signals were gone before I realized it.
It was sudden.
I left them to look for a new hideout.
I had my best men on the lookout too.
A group of three with Sarah, Leo, and Jack.
A group of two with Evan and Hiro.
A group of four with Yuriel, Ren, James, and Kyle.
All of those who could fight were sent out.
The slums were a dangerous place with hidden powers all around, so we needed to be prepared in case we met any on the way.
…I made a mistake.
I took it for granted.
Emir's protection.
He wasn't there.
Our safety net wasn't there.
We should've been more careful.
