[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]
“What the f*ck is that…”
I leaned closer to get a good look at the thing lying in the middle of the tomb.
It wasn’t a body. I had expected to see my mother’s body here so that I could bring her back to the family graveyard where she and my dad are buried. My heart broke into a thousand pieces as I looked away and buried my face in my husband’s chest. Dominic knew the pain and disappointment I suffered as I stopped the sobs from emerging from my throat. I felt his hard, calloused hands on the back of my head as he caressed my hair.
He knew my heart very well.
[I’m sorry, love.] He whispered to me through our mate bond.
“What is that thing?”
Killian tilted his head to the side in curiosity and then stepped closer to the tomb. But Lord Markis stopped him as he blocked Killian from getting anywhere near the sarcophagus with a grave look on his face.
