Ella POV

There were shouts and gasps of shock as the bouquet exploded into a poof of flower petals. David stumbled backward, out of my reach.

“What are you doing?” Amanda’s voice yelled in surprise. I turned to find her rushing towards me. For a moment, all I could see was the evil smile on her face after she poisoned me.

Fear gripped my heart, and I stumbled backward, holding my arms out to keep Amanda from getting any closer.

I ran past Amanda, David, and the crowd. It wasn’t until I was out of the building that I realized I was back in my own pack territory.

Instinctively, I kept running, seeking out a place where I knew I could be safe–my parents‘ house. I rushed inside and didn’t stop until I heard voices.

“What’s wrong?” my mother asked with concern as she gently rubbed my back. “Why did you run away like that?”

“Is this really happening?” I asked shakily. The relief of seeing them alive and well was making it difficult to think.

“Of course, it’s really happening,” my mother said sweetly. “You’re getting married.”
