Kindle Notes & Highlights
all he had to do was squeeze the trigger. What was he waiting for?
Whatever. What were YOU guys waiting for? You could have ended her already before having a stupid chat first!
“Noah—” Hannah tried again, but Noah wasn’t listening to her. He wasn’t listening to anything but Rosamond’s hypnotic voice.
THEN FREAKING BE LOUDER, HANNAH!!!!
His eyes went flat and empty. “I’m sorry.” A terrible sinking dread filled Quinn. He wasn’t going to do it. He couldn’t do it.
Omg are you kidding me? EVEN NOW?!
Quinn spun back toward the superintendent. Rosamond’s triumphant smile quivered. It slid from her mouth, her facial muscles going slack. The revolver fell to the floor. Rosamond’s hands flitted to her neck, fluttering like bird wings. Blood leaked from the six-inch nail lodged deep in her throat.
Damn, go Quinn!
But Hannah did. “We aren’t them,” she said. “We aren’t the monsters.” She raised the .45, supported the butt with her crippled hand, and fired a single shot. Rosamond’s body jerked and fell sideways, then went still. Rosamond Sinclair was dead.
Finally. But she still called new people tho. Sigh.
“Noah!” Quinn said in a stricken voice. “You’re hurt!” “I—I’ve been shot.”
Are we seriously gonna kill him off like this?
“Noah,” Hannah said as if from a great distance. “Milo isn’t dead. He’s in a coma.” It was difficult to hear her over the roaring in his ears. She might have been an ocean away, or on another planet. Her words infiltrated the growing fog in his mind. Milo…alive. But barely. “He might not make it,” she said, her voice breaking, “but you need to know—he’s not dead.”
Well at least you gave him THAT bit of peace. Smh.
He had caused this. All of it. With his doubt, his inaction, his unwillingness to see the ugly truth, choosing instead to embrace the beautiful lie—until it destroyed what he loved most.
Far too late now, Noah. Sigh. That damn 20/20 hindsight I guess
Dimly, he wished he had been a good person. A person with conviction and courage. How different things could have been.
But you were! Ugh this sucks! Doesn't he get to have at least a smidgen of redemption?
In Noah’s limbs was a terrible stillness. A body, nothing more. No breath, no life.
Well, I guess that's one way of removing him from the equation so Hannah can be with Liam. Still...so damn tragic that how his character was done this way. Extremely bad form. *Crying*
No matter what had happened between them, who he’d become. Despite his worst choices, she had still cared for him. She’d never wanted this. Never wished for it. Not once.
Then you should have played your cards better, woman!!
“I know, I remember.” Milo glanced past Quinn. His dark eyes flickered. “Where’s Dad?” The oxygen was sucked out of the room. Quinn went rigid, her ribs squeezing tighter and tighter. It was hard to breathe. The walls closed in.
Oh no....
