Chapter 60

Elena POV

Hearing a car door, Axton glances over his shoulder, and so do I, only to see Marco climb out of his car, looking rather disheveled. “Marco will be here soon. He’s on his way.” I tell Sondra, but she shakes her head.

“He doesn’t need to watch me die. The woman he fell in love with died when she married Floyd. He needs to hang on to her, not this withered broken body that has suffered too much and lived longer than it deserved.” Sondra murmurs between sucking in deep breaths. If only she knew how wrong she is, she deserved so much more than the hand she was dealt. Everyone makes mistakes, and learning from them is redemption, and she learned from her the same as I learned from mine.

“How about you let me decide which version of you I love because last I checked, there wasn’t a version I didn’t,” Marco says, suddenly appearing next to me. Sondra looks up at him, and so do I. He nods for me to move, and I take that as my cue to get up, allowing him to take my place, and he takes Sondra from Axton, settling her between his legs.

“You shouldn’t be here; I don’t want you to see me like this,” she snaps at him.
