I stare out the window, it’s raining, it has been since the day Theo died.. Four days ago. There is a storm coming in, approaching fast, I wonder if it will affect the funeral. A knock on the door pulls my attention.
“Come in” I say, my voice still hoarse from screaming. After Kayden took me away from Theo’s body I wouldn’t leave our room, wouldn’t eat or see anyone. I just laid in bed all day and night. Kayden tried to bring Rose to see me but I couldn’t face her, I feel responsible for her Godmother's death. I can barely look Kayden in the eyes, I mostly just lay staring out the window.
“I have come to help you prepare for the funeral, your Majesty,” a maid tells me, holding a black dress in her hands.
“I’m not going” I turn away
“But…”
“Get out” I order, she sighs and leave
