Chapter 160

Diana’s pov!

There’s nothing

No warmth of a living person

No beating pulse.

Just an icy chill–belonging to a corpse.

I look at Ryley, my hand on his neck shifting slowly, caressing his cheek.

There’s still fresh blood on his face.

His eyes shut tight, devoid of any life.

It dawns on me, at this moment, that Ryley is dead.

He’s really… dead….

My vision blurs quickly, hot tears falling onto Ryley’s cheeks, mingling with his blood.

My lips tremble, broken syllables squeezing out of my throat.

My voice chokes up.

My heart feels like it’s being squeezed by an invisible hand.
