My heart sk ipped a beat in my chest and every inch of my skin broke out in goosebumps.

Was that really my tomb?
But as I stared on at the marble monument, I knew it to be true. That tomb was indeed for Cora Felix.
Had Asher built it himself? And furthermore, did he have Rosepetal reconstructed? There was no other logical reason for the mansion to be intact after the inferno. The blaze had rendered everything damaged and destroyed.
I stared at the Alpha King and frowned. His stance, his bowed head… he appeared to be in mourning.

I pleaded with him. His lips curled downward into a frown, and he sighed. His grip suddenly tightened
