    Kinnear has never looked at me like this—really looked at me. In all the years I’ve known him, eye contact was always a brief stopover on the way to ogling my tits, my ass. Reducing me to parts. This wild-eyed fear is the closest thing to respect he’s ever paid me.

    He’s a boy, and he’ll never become a man. Because in a few more minutes, he’ll be dead.

    We’re face-to-face now, sharing the pillow. “Thanks for taking care of me,” Allison whispers, and as her lips move, they brush mine.

    It’s not quite a kiss; it might have been an accident. Even though her breath is sour with liquor and vomit, it’s all I can do to keep myself from pulling her in for a real one.

    He wasn’t afraid of me, I write. That was his first mistake.

    “It’s brilliant.”

    I blink at her, not sure I’ve heard her right. She runs her hand over my cheek, pulling me closer, staring into my eyes. Not with fear now, but with fondness, desire.

    “You’re brilliant, Scarlett.”

    When she kisses me, I’m so shocked, it takes me a second to respond. But then I melt into her, gripping her waist like a lifeline. Brilliant. She thinks I’m brilliant.

    I’ve finally found someone who accepts my monstrous side, and now I’m going to lose her. I can’t let Stright live, and I can’t let her go, but I can let the rest of the world fade away for this one brief moment.

    I squeeze my eyes shut and keep kissing her.

    She’s all that matters to me.

    I might have a future after all. A future with her.

    She looks so gorgeous, leaning against the doorframe, eyes glowing in the dim light, ringlets wreathed in fog. Sometimes I can’t believe she’s real. I can’t believe Mina can look at me and see everything—the woman and the monster—and love me anyway. Since the night I pushed Wes off that roof, I thought I had no choice but to live my life in jagged pieces. But for the time being, at least, I can have it all.

    “Don’t wait up,” I tell her.

    Mina smiles. “You know you can’t stop me.”
