Cassi pov An entire week had passed ever since the war, and honestly it felt like a dream before it was as if I was sinking into an abyss that will never end but somehow I have been able to dig out of it and find the light the high Court had been put in their Lane and they knew that they were not supposed to mess with me and I was able to get my husband back not only that but the people greatly approved of what I did. I mean they thought that the only reason why I was keeping him was just to embarrass him and to humiliate him as a war price, and if that was enough imagination to keep them sleeping well and waking up well and I was satisfied with that, the details of our relationship did not really matter that much to me and people who think whatever they wanted as long as it didn't change you how we felt about each other. I made sure that the warriors that have gone to war with me regularly war did for everything that they did and for the ones that have died I visited their familie

Alder pov "Are you sure that you really want to go?" Cassi ask me for the millionth time and I told you to have with a smile on my face and assured her that I definitely wanted to come along with her, she seem to be very hesitant about bringing me along to this condolence trip even though she was the one that suggested it in the first place. I guess it was hard to figure out why maybe there was something that was discomforting how about this entire situation but I would have to find out later and that was if she told me if not I feel like I will be mostly left in the dark about everything we both got into the car that was going to take us to the bereaved families and I focused myself on her facial expressions she seem to glance to me from one time to another as if she was trying to catch me off-guard doing something that she did not expect and whenever she was unable to find anything she will look rather disappointed. I wasn't really sure how to really pin it down but it was str

Cassi pov We were able to visit most of the families that we had planned out that day but I could see that my husband was becoming drained and he seem to be deep in thought as well when I asked him about it as we returned to the car he told me it was nothing to worry about brandishing one of his charming smiles and the fact that he felt he needed me to relax in that moment made me to be even more suspicious but I decided to let it slide since there was no point in stressing it anymore. We were halfway back home when I got a call from my former personal trainer I had not heard from him recently after I had to settle matters with the high Court and then I answered the call and I asked him if there was a problem then with a soft tone he responded to me why he needed a problem to call his friend and he just wants to be checking up on me and how I was doing. "I tried visiting some of the killings…" My heart sank a little bit as I thought about the sadness that was in all of the homes

Cassi pov I became so nervous at that moment that I even begun to ration my breathing without realising it and I lived closer this was intentional even though I was already close to his to hear whatever he had to say there was this long awkward silence between the two of us as I waited with my heart in my throat for whatever he was going to say. But my mind was telling me that he was finally going to admit to his crimes maybe it was because of the families that we had visited that had finally pushed him to say the truth that was I was waiting for. Then when he lips finally parted he said something that I was not expecting at all."Have I told you how much I love you today?" The statement took me so off guard and my cheeks immediately went blazing red as I reached up my pants to cover them but it was already too late and he saw them I became so nervous that I even forgot the earlier question that I asked you as he pressed a kiss to my hair it was as if all the thoughts that I had i

Alder pov As I was waiting for my wife I began to reconsider my decision of telling her the truth or not cuz it's better to make her more aware instead of allowing her to suspect that I was keeping another secret from her because from the looks of things it would be natural for anyone to suspect that I was the one that had arranged to scale his but I was actually innocent meaning that I had to push the blame over to someone else not that I was actually responsible for any of the killings but even so I knew that she was probably troubled and wanted to ask me about this afternoon I seriously wanted from the way she showed affection to her people that she was just constantly sleeping with a man that could have possibly killed several of them as a petty attempt of getting back at her but I guess she was just keeping all of this to myself right now even though I was worried for her. someone was capable of doing something so horrible must have at least a good amount of resources at his or
