Reina's thoughts lingered on the many moments they had shared together. Lorcan had always been her rock, the one person she could rely on in the chaotic world of the royal court. His death had been a crushing blow, one from which she had never truly recovered.
The news of his murder had shattered her, and the days that followed were a blur of grief and despair.She remembered the first time she had met Lorcan.
She had been a young noble princess newly arrived at the party and he had been the charming prince who had captured her heart with a single glance. Their courtship had been the stuff of fairy tales, filled with stolen glances, whispered promises, and moments of pure, unadulterated joy. She had felt like the luckiest woman in the world when they married, and the prospect of starting a family with him had been a dream come true.
