Live by the sword, die by the sword, that's what they say, right? It should have been me, that day. But it wasn't. It was her. And that changed me. Sent me down an even darker path than I'd been on before.
Until I met her. Nell Hawthorne. The girl who changed everything.
You know that story. But what you don't know is everything that led up to that rainy day under a tree, at a funeral.
