OCTAVIA'S POV

Tears welled up in my eyes while I watched the sight that played out before me. I protected the coven at a very young age. I had been the head maid of the coven. I was crying over witches who were older than me. I was lonely, broken, and desperate for a long time. All I wanted was love.
All I wanted was someone who would remain by my side, and then I found Zachary. I was desperate for love and attention. We could have had it all, but it was never going to be enough for him; he just had to betray me.
I raised my glass as well before pulling it closer to my lips.
