“What happened to her?” Axel asked, wondering about the bandages and crutches.
“Once she had left the candy, the man that brought her hurried her along,” Saul replied.
‘Holden…’ Axel growled internally. ‘He must have allowed her to say goodbye…before he erased her. What a fucking prince…’
“Why haven’t you ever told me this before?” Axel asked.
“I didn’t know you didn’t remember, nor did I see a reason to share the story.”
Axel nodded, why would he think to share it? It was just a sweet moment between two injured children. An innocent moment. Knowing wouldn’t have changed the fact that his memory was blocked. Even if he had been told about the girl that left him a chocolate bar, it wouldn’t have changed anything back then.
Axel took a deep breath.
