Chapter 111
Reyna Cruz:
“How are you feeling now?” Sam asked, taking a seat beside me on the couch. It had taken me hours just to wipe my eyes and stop crying.
“I’m not well. I can’t believe she’s gone. This isn’t fair, Sam,” I began to cry again, as if I hadn’t just stopped sobbing.
“I feel like it’s my fault for not stopping her from leaving my house last night, Sam sighed, his head down, elbows resting on his thighs. Despite sitting beside me, we felt distant today.
I noticed he had barely spoken to me until now.
“It’s my fault. I started all that,” I covered my face with my hands and let out a little cry, while he gently patted my back to comfort me.
“I don’t know how Ill comfort Turner now, I sighed, leaning back on the couch and watching Sam close his eyes.
“I wish I had an answer for that,” he uttered before sniffing and getting up from his spot.
“When is the funeral? I want to bring Turner, but I’m not sure if he’ll be safe here,” I said, turning to Sam, who frowned at
me
“Huh? You think we’re the problem?” He faced me, a look on his face that made me believe he wasn’t going to let it slide
anymore.
“Hunter told you this place isn’t safe for Turner, didn’t he?” He yelled and then laughed sarcastically. “Well, bravo! He did it Whatever he wanted to accomplish, he did it, he hissed, pacing around anxiously.
I was so tired of everything, but I couldn’t even complain. It wasn’t I who was suffering: people around me had lost their lives. Polline’s demise would always haunt me.
I didn’t know how I would ever be able to smile again. It was like I lost a big chunk of my happiness. She didn’t have to be a victim to whatever games were being played around me.
“Reyna” Sam slapped his hands hard before me to get my attention. “Polline died because f&cking Hunter wanted to cut the last tie you had left with this place.”
My heart sank when he accused Hunter directly.
“No! He would never hurt Polline, I attempted to get up, but Sam hunched over me even more, so I stayed sitting.
“Somebody saw f*cking Hunter around the area last night. It was around the time the fire started. They saw him run away.” he yelled, and I couldn’t help but shake my head.
“You still don’t believe me. Then go f*cking ask him,” he yelled, finally stepping back so that I could get to my feet,
“Sam! I can’t accuse him without any proof,” I knew I was hurting, missing Polline more than anyone here, but believing Hunter would stoop that low didn’t sit well with me.
“Even when there are witnesses? Or maybe you believe that the rogues are lying,” he nodded his head. “And maybe they killed their own children just to make you hate Hunter,” he dramatically gasped, making me hug myself.
“That’s not what I’m saying, I uttered, but he pointed a finger in my face and silenced me.
“That will be enough, Reyna. I’m done, he mumbled, and a frown creased my forehead.

“Please, calm down. I know those were just some words he had to say because he didn’t have anything else that would calm me down.
