Emily sat in her living room floor crossing her leg, her mother's journal was opened in front of her.
She was curious and carefully ran her fingers along the edge, finding a gap.
Gently, she checked the inside, showing a hidden paper.
"What is this?" Emily murmured, unfolding the sheet immediately.
The handwriting was her mother's own, she was shaking and rushing as she read...
"To my dearest Emily, if you have found this, it means I could not protect you from the truth. Marcus Hale left me no choice, He threatened our family, your future and if I didn't cooperate."
"The Greys were never meant to be hurt but I didn't know how to stop him. Forgive me, my love. Protect yourself and always remember the pendant will guide you."
Emily realized her mother had not betrayed the Greys willingly. She had been forced to do so.
She quickly reached out for her phone and called Rachel.
