From the moment police cars filled the street in front of Rachel and Carly's building, Sophia knew that something horrible had happened.
An ambulance arrived and tears started falling from Sophia's eyes. She put a hand over her mouth as her eyes took in the scene unfolding before her.
She begged the world to be kind. None of them deserved another loss, especially not Rachel.
Her only fault was being loyal to Luca even when it didn't benefit her. She had been cold at first but, as Sophia got to know her, she found a strong and loyal woman who preferred observing rather than talking. She was a strong alpha with a beautiful wife. They both deserved peace and happiness.
Yet it seemed that Rachel had gotten too involved with Luca.
The darkness in his life that Sophia tried to hide from had crept a little further. Luca could no longer shield everyone from it.
