Return of the Crowned Heiress (Felicia)

Scarlet’s expression was conflicted as she posed a impotenical question. “Moss, have you thought about this? If it had been you under contre jest now and you were the one who stabbed Imegen or caused her death in some other way then you’lle the killer,”

Felicia remained silent, but she understood this all too well. This was exactly why she had protected Maurice. She had no personal connection to him, he did she care whether he livedor died.

He clutched his chest with one hand, the other forming a tight fist. His grip was so strong that his nails dug into his palm, drawing blood that seeped through his fingers and dripped onto the ground it was a disturbing sight.
