His Lost Lycan Luna (Kyson and Ivy)

My stomach dropped, and Hooked at Abble, who seemed shocked to see me, but remained quiet. She reached over and gripped my fingers with hers, The King stood at the front where I saw 13 fresh graves dug, he stared off vacantly toward the path leading to the surrounding forest. I could only see the side of him, but he must have sensed my stare because he turned his head and looked at me. His eyes met mine, and my heart sputtered in my chest; he then turned his gaze away like I was merely another servant or member of the public.

Time seemed to stop, and I sucked in a breath when I saw the open graves that had been freshly dug. I peered around before seeing a succession of coffins being carried to the gravesites where the King stood. I had no idea what had happened, but one thing was clear to me. Most of the coffins belonged to children. They weren’t large enough to be adults, Four of them, I could tell, were adult sized coffins, but the other nine were children’s coffins.

The guards carrying them stopped by a grave and set them down before music started playing from the violinist I hadn’t noticed was at the side by the water.

We went back in through the laundry, following Clarice. The moment I stepped inside, I was crushed between the two of them as they smothered me in their warmth.

Just me and Abbie against the world, the way it used to be. So with that, I grabbed some cleaning supplies, ignoring Clarice’s protests that I wasn’t a servant, and followed Abbie to help her do her chores which she was excited about, Finally, l was doing something other than wallowing and hiding away from everyone, Abbie told me the King returned yesterday morning and spent the day hand digging the graves himself, refusing help when the guards tried to step in and
