Part I

Lost Puppy

Prologue

Veronica

No one is meant to live forever Even immortals As a vained it would be due to violence

Not because I fell in love

“Proht, his plea desperate The bloodied tears that stain my cheeks fail to stop

I chose this I did it for hiether, one where I won’t grow old … One where I could possibly have a child … it’s for love I never asked for a mate In all my decades, I never felt this deep need

Just as I never asked to be immortal, and now …

“Promise me, Veronica” All I can do is slowly nod my head

I’ve turned into a fool for hi for him

“I promise” I whisper the words I know are a lie No one is meant to live forever and this had to be done

“I will give you everything you need I promise you, my love It could kill you” I sniffle and kiss the crook of his neck His gentle es a warmth to my chilled blood “I would die without you”

He says that, but expects one from this world He’ll understand He ive me

“I love you, Veronica”

“I will love you forever, Vince”

Our forever
