Jacob picks up the broken photo, and Amber promises to speak with Elisa. Instead, Amber stages an injury by striking her head on a wall. Jacob hits Elisa and demands an apology. Elisa rejects the demand and heads to Catherine Lockhart's study. Catherine gives Elisa the Midnight Star pendant for her journey to the vampires. The brothers and Amber arrive at the door, shocked to hear Elisa plans to depart.
Jacob gathers fragments of the torn photo from the floor and tells his brothers they went too far. Amber steps in and claims she will fix things with Elisa. Jacob praises Amber for trying to help.
Amber catches up with Elisa and gloats that the triplets despise her. To ensure the boys hate Elisa forever, Amber grips Elisa's wrists and smashes her own skull against the wall. She yells that Elisa is attacking her.
Nearby students accuse Elisa of bullying. The brothers run to the scene, and an angry Jacob strikes Elisa's face before the onlookers. Oliver comforts Amber and insists Elisa face punishment.
Jacob apologizes for striking Elisa but demands she say sorry to Amber to keep peace. Elisa refuses to apologize for an act she never committed. Nash warns Elisa not to return home tonight.
Jacob feels a sharp pang in his chest and grabs Elisa's arm as she turns to leave. Elisa tells him not to touch her and pulls away. His brother says she will return when darkness falls.
Catherine Lockhart spots the facial bruise on Elisa and breaks down in tears over her sons' cruelty. Elisa expresses her gratitude and love for Catherine, but she affirms her plan to depart.
Catherine presents Elisa with the Lockhart heirloom, known as the Midnight Star pendant. She shares that the vampire lord's family wants to shelter her and likely unite her with their pureblood heir.
Jacob, Oliver, Nash, and Amber appear at the doorway of the study. They stand dumbfounded as they hear the news and discover that Elisa is walking away from their family.
“Because that's not enough—I need them to hate you. I need to know you'll never take my place again!”
“Apologize to Amber. Now!”
“No. I won't apologize for something I didn't do.”
“This is the Lockhart family heirloom—the 'Midnight Star'. I want you to have it as a gift for your new life.”
“She's leaving? Elisa? Where are you going?”
The triplets and Amber stand frozen at Catherine Lockhart's study door after hearing that Elisa is leaving. Jacob stares in disbelief as Elisa holds the family heirloom. How will the brothers react once they realize Elisa is actually joining the vampires, and will Amber's lies finally come to light before Elisa walks away?
