BELLA'S POV
He is acting like nothing happened between us. Like we are old friends . Or is torturing people such a normal thing for him?
If he only turns cruel to protect the King's family, his loyalty is driving him towards insanity.
With shaky hands, I take Skylar from his arms. The sweet boy wraps his hands around my neck, doing his best to hug me.
I peck the bridge of his nose and he laughs as if tickled. I wait until he relaxes again before asking;
"How are you feeling, Sweetie?"
He gives me a sad look. "I feel sick! My tummy still hurts and . . .Mother said you died! She said we would not see you again until we die too! You didn't die, did you?!"
News does travel fast. They already knew there was an execution? It was however too early to tell Skylar of his sister's demise
