Realm of Wind and Vines (Flame and Thorns, #4)

by Marion Blackwood

I can see the moment it happens. The moment that the final spark of life leaves their eyes. The moment that they change from being people to being bodies on the floor.

Because regret, I’ve come to realize, is the most brutal emotion of them all. Fear fades as soon as you remove the thing you’re afraid of. But regret… Regret is permanent.
