"I…" I stuttered, my words failing me.
I could still remember the pain that churned in my lower half after drinking that bottle of alcohol. It was the worst sensation alive. It felt like my life was slowly slipping from my grasp.
But possibly worse than that was Cassian's nonchalant expression. He was entirely alright with watching me die at that moment.
Did he truly believe that I was the one who killed Violet and her child? He was also the only one who knew I was pregnant. I didn't know if he told Rowan and Soren, but they didn't seem like they had a clue.
My hands slowly moved down to my lower belly. It was flat. To be fair, the pregnancy hadn't been that far along for me to have a baby bump, but I felt oddly empty inside. A part of me mourned its loss, but another part of me was relieved.
However, either way, I refused to let Violet get away with this. Rage flooded my veins. Never had I ever wanted someone dead so badly.
