Cassandra sat down, taking the moment to be off her feet. She had been walking around constantly since Lucinda's death since there was much to do. Had Cassandra known it would be this much trouble, she would have tried to keep Lucinda alive so she would only be bedridden.
There wasn't any talk about a wedding and Gabriel didn't visit the palace. Everything had taken too many steps back and now it would take longer to carry out her plans.
Cassandra wanted to blame Bryce but she was the one who asked for him to kill Lucinda. Why couldn't it be George to take care of burying Lucinda? Why did he get to sulk over biting her?
"I am tired," Cassandra muttered.ย
Gabriel had not turned to ignore her or to be cold after losing his mother but she did not enjoy how many times he wanted to lay with her. How many times he wanted to bite her.ย
