Cora slumped in the chair, her face buried in her palms.
John’s body lay at her feet, his lifeless eyes looking at her. A stream of tears began running down Cora’s face. John did not deserve to die as he did. He was a good man. No, he was the best man and an even better friend. She had taken advantage of him.
She should never have let her hunger get the better of her. If only she had controlled a bit more, John would still have had his soul inside him.
The tombstone would remain as her apology…

Have the same question crimsonprose asked. As the 3rd option, was he her guinea pig in anyway? Or, as a child would ask, did she slay him for eating her favorite food without leaving a scrap? Kidding. 😀

You have raised a lot of possibilities as to her hunger. There is no doubt however that he came to a sticky end at her hands. An apology from beyond the grave.

If John was her dearest friend, I don’t think I would like being her enemy. Nice job with the prompt, Dark Netizen. ~nan
