Belle sat with her parents, her tears falling one after another until there was no more as they had started to dry. Her mind felt numb, her thoughts scattered all over the place that made nothing sense right now. Her father had lost his heart which was undoubtedly the work of Lucas but her mother, her kind mother's head was not only ripped out but it was...it was broken and squashed that brought tears back in her eyes.
It was just moments ago that she was talking to her parents in this very room. She had her head placed on her mother's shoulder a while ago, her mama's hand holding her hand with love which now laid on the ground without any movement.
Time continued to pass in the quiet mansion and Lucas had one of the men to go call the magistrate while he sent another one to send a letter to the priestess of the church.
