Novel & Cerita Ash X Dawn

His eyes are wide, his expression one of disbelief and silent horror. Dawn’s voice is barely a whisper, ragged and hoarse. “My Asher cried all night when you didn’t answer his calls, Travis. You… you don’t deserve to be a father,” she breathes, every word an effort. “My Asher deserved a father who wouldn’t make him cry.” As life drains from her, Dawn’s eyes flutter shut, her body finally succumbing to the numbness that spreads like a cold wave over her limbs.
