Chapter 0328 All I could do instead was plead with him, with my eyes and with my words.
“Enzo,” I murmured, shaking my head as my vision clouded with tears and my heart sank in my chest, “don’t you remember me? Can’t you see that she’s tricking you?” But Enzo didn’t answer.
“Let’s go, Selena,” he said, his angry eyes fixed on me. “Let’s get away from her.” A sob caught in my throat. I couldn’t stop my knees from buckling beneath me, and I fell to the ground, digging my hands and my knees into the dirt as another sob escaped my mouth.
Wy TY OUNWS I heard the unmistakable sound of a portal opening in front of me and jerked my head up. Luke’s hex had fully worn off now, and Selena had seeded in opening a portal. But I knew that there was nothing to do now; Enzo hated me. Selena had sunk her ws so deep into his mind that he didn’t even remember me as anything but an evil doppelganger of someone who he thought was his fated mate.
Now, more than ever, I wished that my wolf was here to prove him wrong; but with Selena right in front of me, my wolf wouldn’te out, and I wasn’t even sure if she coulde out again.

“Please... Enzo...” I begged through my sobs. The tears in my eyes were so thick that they fully clouded my vision, turning Selena and Enzo into nothing
but two vaguely human-shaped blobs But then, I heard the sound of crunching leaves underfoot, and Selena’s face suddenly came into view.
She grabbed my face with her hand, digging her nails into my cheeks and my neck, and scowled at me with eyes that burned with hatred.
“Can’t you see that he doesn’t even know you?” she growled, bits of her spittle flying into my face. “You''d never even be his first choice if he did know you. I could just kill you, you know. Save everyone the trouble.” “go kill me, then,” I replied. “If you''re going to take him from me, then just kill me.” Selena threw her head back andughed, releasing her grip on my face
with a final shove that was strong enough to send me back onto my butt on the forest floor.
“Killing you would be too much of a kindness, I think,” she said.
Just then, I heard the sound of feet pounding through the woods, and voices shouting.
But Selena heard it, too.
“Come on, baby,” she said, storming over to the portal and grabbing Enzo’s hand. She cast me onest nce over her shoulder, the smirk on her face undeniable. “Let’s go.” And then... They were gone.
A cry escaped my throat. My friends came just split seconds after the portal closed. If they had only been there just moments before... But it didn’t matter
now. It was over. Selena had won.
“Where did they go?” Matt said, looking around frantically while Lori and Jessica fell to their knees beside me, cradling me in their arms as I sobbed uncontrobly.
I could only shake my head. No words woulde out through my sobs.
“They’re gone,” Jessica said, her voice low. I nodded. Jessica pulled me closer, wrapping her arms around me and pulling me into herp while Lori rubbed my back.
But I couldn’t even feel any of it. waspletely numb, as though I was an outside observer looking down at the scene.
And as I saw myself spread out on the forest floor with my friends huddled
around me, my face caked with dirt and tears, there was only one word that woulde out of my mouth.
“Enzo.”
