El Cadáver Dela Novia Novels & Stories

The men couldn’t see the casket, well, not at least until the crate dropped completely after being opened, revealing the casket which was set in the middle of it. Esteban and Viktor watched as the casket was opened, and taking a step toward it, Viktor’s eyes widened in surprise when he saw his sister’s body. Her neck was slaughtered, and her eyes were wide open, her body was completely covered with flowers, her head, neck, and arms were revealed. The floor itself was covered with a bunch of roses, both red and white, Claire’s favorite, and walking over them, Esteban’s heart raced against his chest as he looked at the woman.

“But how did you know about our deal with the renegades?” “Cassidy.” Bailey grinds out. “She has someone in Raven Knight’s. A brother, Caden, Cameron, something like that.” “Cameron,” I growl out, fury hitting me hard when it dawns on me who killed Cameron and that he had a sister. “That was my friend's mate! They were going to get married!” The rage inside me took over when I thought of how distraught Ruby was by her lover's death and I lashed out with the knife, cutting the black-haired bitch again, a little more deeply this time.

Cassian, after all these years together…' I didn't read the rest. I blocked her number immediately. Later, an unclaimed body quietly appeared in a back alley somewhere in Maccora. But by then, none of that mattered to me anymore, for Evelyne gave me a brand-new wedding—grand, dazzling, and beautiful beyond words. And Annie was still our flower girl. For the rest of my life, things would only become happier and happier for me.

But each secret he holds is like a strong tether, keeping me tied to him at all times. “I just wanted to let you know that we didn’t actually catch Tayten,” I tell him slowly, unsure of how to put this. I can’t tell how mad he will be when he finds out the truth. “Is that right?” I glance down at my feet, willing a good reaction from him. “She’s dead. Cal killed her...On accident of course. He shot her leg and she exploded into ash. Her ashes have been collected and brought back here. You knew her, so maybe, I don’t know, you know what to do with them.”

Deidre feigned laughter as she looked to Dina, who shook her head. “You said tonight was a dry event, Luna.” Deidre’s face fell, as if hoping that her own goblet were filled with vodka. Father. Enough! Justin’s roar was apparent despite the dampening of the mind link. But Nael ignored his son. “I am quite well and quite sober, thank you.” He nodded at Deidre and went on, as if eager to tell the sad tale. “We hadn’t found the remains of their bodies, assuming they had been burned alive. But alas! I arrived here months ago, only to discover that my wife had in fact died, of drug overdose, apparently, in your infirmary.” He spoke carelessly, almost with delight at the narrative of his wife’s de

He bowed in greeting, following the Bride as she walked some distance away from the Physician that was attending to Nadia, to speak to him. "What is the matter?" Her concern was plain. "Just a little headache." She nodded, "how is Raquel? Is she doing better?" She would have asked if he was ready for the King to help them with their debt but this just wasn't the right time, besides her question implied many things. "My Lady," he looked right at her, something Collin didn't usually do. "My wife is dead."

A myriad of small cuts spit tiny tributaries of blood, and a few massive gashes split her back. My blood boils. I whip to the men I assigned to her. “You were supposed to—” Candace puts her good hand on my arm. “They couldn’t. My mother….” She squeezes her eyes shut. “Rowena Solberg is dead.” The blood on her mouth. Candace killed her, maybe even by herself. My chest aches. I send a futile prayer to the Goddess for time, but the battle doesn’t stop. I brush a soft kiss over her forehead, then start fastening the buckles of her armor. “You’ll tell me everything later.”

Rose was dressed casually, which was always a shocker whenever she did, with a bottle of wine in her hands. Gio was struggling with the toddler who wanted to join the fun, and my eyes burned taking her in. She looked exactly like her mother, and when she saw me, her eyes brightened. I held her to my chest like a treasure when Gio handed her to me, forcing down the tears that would ruin this perfect day if I let it. Nora was the only thing I had left to remind me of Nadine. My best friend and her husband had been gunned down in their home by members of the new figure head that had emerged a few years back; Kale.

Sarah looked at me and she nodded emphatically, “Oh my gosh that could be it.” “It could?” I was surprised. I only said that just so I could say something. Who would have thought I would end up being right? “Yeah. Doc was married for some time, but he sadly passed away. Her eyes widened in shock. “Due to what?” Camille and I said in unison, we were fully invested in what she was saying and we leaned in closer to her, or as close as one could get from their beds. She sighed pitifully, then she whispered, “Aconite poisoning.”

"No need to be so surprised. I have good news for you." She flashed the diamond ring on her finger, brandishing it in front of Jade. "Lloyd proposed to me just now. He said he will love me forever, and Dad fully supports our marriage. He even transferred your assets to me as a wedding gift. I'll marry Lloyd with everyone's blessings, and you'll only lie in a cold coffin. That’s all you deserve." As Neve reveled in her victory, she looked down at the broken Jade. "Oh, one more thing. Caelan Fitzgerald is dead."
