              it   had   been   a   night   of   nothing   but   mistakes   ,   the   one   silver   lining   of   it   all   being   she’d   got   what   she’d   wanted   going   in   …   but   how   high   the   price   had   been   .      her   life   was   not   her   own   to   live   anymore   and   she’d   gone   and   gotten   everyone   she’d   swore   to   keep   away   from   the   mess   tangled   in   .   all   mistakes   she   had   no   hope   of   fixing   ;      not   now   ,   not   ever   .      but   there   was   one   mistake   .      a   recent   one   ,      she   could   maybe   somehow   salvage   .   not   forgive   and   forget   but   maybe   she   could   give   him   some   closure   .      and   so   she   slipped   away   from   rod   &   bella’s   place   .      a   plea   to   let   her   try   and   fix   at   least   one   mess   she’d   caused   before   her   voice   became   not   her   own   .   and   now   here   she   was   .      standing   at   the   doorstep   of   augustus   rookwood   ,   chapping   the   door   in   the   middle   of   the   night   and   readying   to   have   it   slammed   in   her   face   .
