CHAPTER 29
ARESBefore the alpha meeting the next morning, I glanced over at Marcel, who now had permanent wrinkles on his forehead from creasing it so much these past few days. Yesterday, Aurora had told me that he would trade his life for Charolette’s, and while I so f*****g wanted Charolette to live, sacrificing his life was … almost too much to ask.
Even for a coldhearted, hardheaded brute like me.
If Medusa had given us this option weeks ago, I would’ve f*****g forced Marcel to sacrifice his life. But that was the old me. With Mars wandering the underworld and not here, I couldn’t make any more stupid and helpless decisions.
He would be disappointed that I had been strong for him but not the rest of this pack.
“You don’t have to trade your life for hers,” I said to Marcel.
Aurora
