THE THREE DAYS IT TOOK FOR HAYLEY TO TURN FELT LIKE AN ETERNITY. The Cullen house was silent for once, no one daring to whisper anything as the hours trickled by like raindrops. But one thing was sure: everyone in the household was worried.
Emmett was worried about Rosalie, who had cleaned Hayley's body and dressed her in a pretty black dress. She combed her hair, careful to detangle it, and wiped the dried blood from her cold flesh.
Jasper was worried about Alice. The seer had been so focused on watching for Hayley's future that she would zone off and jump every time someone would say her name. The Coven knew she blamed herself for what had happened. Because why hadn't she seen it coming? But no one blamed her, not even Xander.
And Xander...well, everyone was worried about him.
He hadn't left Hayley's side, not even to hunt. His time was spent pacing the length of Carlisle's in-house exam room. His hair was a mess from where he had been constantly running his fingers through it, and his golden eyes were now the color of coal. Carlisle had tried to assure him that everything was fine, but he knew the words went right over his son's head.
