ZARIAH
I haven't been falling all this time - I've been flying
It happened quickly, far too quickly for her to realize or react to, too engrossed in her shock to recognize the trap she had walked into.
”But you were the one that brought me to her.”
It was a damning accusation, and one too true for her to even twist to fit her wishes. Zariah gasped as she fell, eyes still locked on Jace. For a moment the world moved slowly, her mind realizing exactly what was happening. This was it. This was the end. The Merciless, culled by her own flesh and blood
The pain as her back hit jagged stone was near blinding, flesh tearing, bone snapping, blood spattering into the crevices beneath her. It was painful, slow, and she knew exactly what she deserved. Her vision faded in and out, the metallic taste of blood overwhelming her senses as it trickled down her chin. And yet, even then, a cold, crazed laugh gurgled up from collapsed lungs as her one last thought broke through her dying haze.
He was perfect. Just so perfect.
