Viola 

A year had passed since  I became Viola Vane, I didn't expect Mark would come back for me.

I was in Paris at an art gallery with Silas because he wanted us to socialising with the elite families by attending several occasions. Carl was there too, working for Silas now. My security was supposed to be perfect. 

also, everything went dark just in my head. I felt a sharp burrow  in my neck while I looked at a form. Someone held me and said, “ Madame, you  feel faint. ” I passed out. 

I woke up in the  fear room in our New York  extension. It was the same safe room where Mark  formerly locked me “ for my safety. ” 

Mark sat by the door, watching me. He looked tired and aged. He was n’t angry  presently. He was quiet and  concentrated on me. 

“ Hello, Viola, ” he said. 

His voice was deep. It used to  console me. Now it  spooked me. 

“ You ca n’t keep me then, Mark. Silas will come for me, ” I said. 

“ Let him. He’ll be too late, ” Mark answered. 

He walked toward me. I got off the bed and backed up to the wall. “ Too late for what? ” I asked. 

“ For us to flash back , ” he said. He did n’t touch me. He just looked at my face. “ You look like her, but you’re not my Viola  presently. You’re his. ” 

“ He’s my hubby, ” I said. 

“ I was your life! ” he said, his voice breaking for a moment. also he calmed down. “ I made a terrible mistake. I’ve paid for it every day for a time. Now I want to make  effects right. ” 

“ The debt is paid, ” I said. “ You spent all my love and trust. ” 

“ also we’ll make  further, ” he  rumored, touching my  impertinence. I tried to pull down, but he held me. “ We’ll start over. I’ll make sure to remind you who you are, and who you really belong to. ” 

I felt  hysterical  and  shocked. “ You’re crazy. ” 

“ I’m in love, ” he said  still. “ That’s different. ” also he  seized my dress. 

I fought him. I scratched, demurred, and screamed. He was stronger. He projected me on the bed. 

“ Flash back, ” he said near my lips. “ The first time. In your old bedroom. You chose me. ” 

I flashed back  being eighteen in my old room. He was my stepfather. I gave him my trust and my heart. 

“ That girl is dead, ” I said. “ You killed her. ” 

“ also bring her back. With me. ” 

Suddenly, the door burst open. 

Silas came in alone. He'd a small gun in his hand. He saw Mark on top of me and my torn dress, but his face stayed calm. 

“ Get off my  woman
            , Sterling, ” Silas said. 

Mark  set but did n’t move down. He smiled at Silas. “ You’re  interposing. ” 

“ Viola, ” Silas said, “ Come then. ” 

Mark  seized my hair and kept me down. He took a gun from under the pillow and pressed it to my head. 

Silas did n’t look  spooked. “ That’s a bad plan, ” he said. 

“ It’s the only plan left, ” Mark said. He looked into my eyes.However,  also we die together, “ If I ca n’t have you. Right now. ” 

His cutlet strained on the detector. 

“ No! ” Silas yelled. 

Mark looked at Silas for just a alternate. 

Silas shot him. The sound was soft. Mark dropped his gun as blood spread on his shoulder. He tried to point his gun at Silas. 

Silas shot him two  further times in the  casket. Mark fell off the bed, hit the wall, and slid down, leaving blood before. His gun hit the  bottom. 

Silas crossed the room  presto and demurred Mark’s gun down. 

I sat up, shaking, and pulled my dress together. I  goggled at Mark. 

Mark was on the  bottom, breathing hard. His shirt was covered in blood. He looked at me. His  wrathfulness was gone. He just looked tired and sad. 

He tried to speak. Blood came out of his mouth. “ Vi ola ” 

I got off the bed and went to him. Silas let me go. 

I knelt beside Mark. I brushed his hair from his  forepart. His skin was getting cold. 

He looked at me and said, “ I love you. ” 

A gash ran down my face. I kissed his  forepart. 

“ And I loved you back  also, ” I  rumored. “ When I was  youthful and did n’t know more. I loved you so much it hurt me. ” I can’t deny my feelings for him was like a fire back then but it ended badly. His golden cage suffocated me.

He soughed and looked at me one last time. also his eyes went blank. 

Mark Sterling was dead. And our memories were be buried with him too. 

I stayed by his side until Silas helped me up. “ It’s over, Viola, ” he said. 

He took me out of the room and out of the  extension. I did n’t look back. 

In the auto, Silas held my hand. It felt cold and businesslike. 

I had loved Mark  formerly, with a love that destroyed us both. 

Now I understood. Some loves are n't supposed to last. They burn everything down and leave only ashes before.
