Chapter 160

Diana’s pov!

There’s nothing

No warmth of a living person

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.

“Ryley… Don’t die… Please… Today’s your birthday, I was going to celebrate with you, I made a birthday… birthday cake… you haven’t eaten… you….

My voice chokes up.

I know, no matter how much I call out, he won’t respond like before.

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

Suffocating, suffocating pain.
