Chapter 1

Bellamy and Clarke never intended to be leaders of a band of criminals condemned to Earth, and they never knew that they would be each other's most valuable confidante. Dislike led to appreciation, which then led to trust, and eventually friendship.

It all amounts to little when Clarke decided to leave her people, her family, to take time for herself, to handle the heavy burden of sacrifice and murder for the lives' of her people. Bellamy is left to mend the shattered hearts and minds of their people, the Delinquents, and await Clarke's return.
