PREFACE

After the Cullens left Forks, leaving James and his coven in charge of the town and all its people, I thought things couldn't possibly get any worse. I thought that the nightly terrors, the constant fear of dying or losing Charlie, and the agony in my heart and soul caused from Edward leaving couldn't be topped by anything.

But I was wrong.

I gained a friend, someone whom I could be close to after I lost Edward and the rest of the Cullens. But then he betrayed me. He kept a horrible secret from me, one that caused me to get hurt. Badly. It was his fault that I was scarred for life, in shock at what had happened.

And if that wasn't enough, the vampires chose that time to strike, taking away the one thing that kept me relatively happy, the one person whom I had left. I was left all alone, and willing to do anything to end my lonely existence.

I joined the wrong side, striking back against those who hurt me and my family. I was in constant danger, even more so than I could be in when around my supposed friend. And I didn't care, because I was alone and broken. I didn't care if I died, because nothing mattered to me anymore. Even life.

And then I made the wrong choice, and my once-friend and those close to him got the brunt of the attack. He said he hated me, and I only wanted to end my life. I didn't feel like continuing to live like this, like an empty shell and so very alone.

But things went quite differently than what I expected, and James got his deepest desire to come true. I am in his clutches now, waiting to die.

And so here I stand, waiting for the final bite of death. As they lean ominously closer, I close my eyes. My last thought is of Edward, and of the relationships that I had broken.

It is time for me to die.
