... told me once before that you loved me. Do you still? Do you still love me, Cordelia?” For a moment he looked like he did when he was sixteen and they were discussing their future plans. She told him that she would give up her plans to be with the Red Hood if he wanted her to. He told her that they couldn’t be married, because he had nothing to offer her. She told him that she loved him more than she had ever loved anyone, and that was all she needed to be happy. Cade told her that he loved her too, but it would never work because his future was with the Hoods. At that moment something inside her hardened. She threw herself into her studies and trained with a passion that couldn’t be matched. She put her feelings for Cade away and never looked back, but of course she still loved him. She always would. It wouldn’t change anything so she didn’t tell him. “I have to go Cade.” ‘All this time and he was just now bringing this up?’ she fumed. All of sudden she realized why Cade was acting so strange towards her.

The silence between them grew, but it wasn’t necessarily uncomfortable. Micah lightly bumped her shoulder and gave her that heart stopping smile again. “I heard things about you and I heard there were werewolves near the village last night. I also heard they were chasing you. Is there any truth behind those stories?” She sighed, “It’s all true. Well, at least those two statements are true. What else have you heard?” “I heard you were out of the village and they chased you home. I heard they chased you and you ran to Cade’s home.” “True and true. I couldn’t sleep so I went out running. I went to Cade’s home because it was the closet house to the entrance of the village with weapons. I wasn’t running to him specifically.
