“…..you have to kill me as well.” I can feel the confusion through the bond, but I can’t. I can’t look at him…..I can’t face him. I can barely breathe, barely stay on my feet. What did I do? How could I be so careless and self-centered?

I went to that house to check on Aida. I saw what was in her room; the shrine she had to Lincoln. Anyone who saw that would know that there was something not right with Aida. Anyone else would have taken the time to tell someone to get her some help. I did none of those things. I told no one and didn’t try to get her any help. Instead, I went about my life as if I had never seen it.

Lincoln is missing. He has been taken, and if not for Adela, he would be moved tonight. He probably would have never been heard from again. Aida took Lincoln, and she could do so because of me. I did this to us, to my mate.

I swallow the lump in my throat and close my eyes. “When I went to check on Aida that day, I saw something disturbing. I saw a type of shrine to Lincoln. I didn’t say anything to you or anyone else. Aida took Lincoln, and it’s all my fault. Iii…iiiiiffff I had jjjjjust said ssssssomething……iiiiiiiffffff…..” I couldn’t finish, emotions taking hold of me. Landon pulls me into him and rubs my back. I bury my face into his chest and let it all out.
