Life is about to get really interesting in the Lilly town kingdom. I remain on the balcony and watch the mourners approach the courtyard, where they are to each take the evenly distributed ashes to the burial site. Most of those idiots were cruel even to their own families, I don’t get why they are here to mourn them. I wish I was there to see their faces when they find the vases empty. I would be damned if I let those cruel idiots have anything representing a memento. Flushed down the toilet like the shits they were was fitting.

After we burned the beast alive because he said he killed you and mum by the explosion but you didn’t die but he did” Emily replied with yet another nervous smile. “No need to regret that, Emily dear.

In my eyes, I saw their ancestors, the very people who approved and conducted my execution “You dare not joke with me.” I lit a fire that spread throughout t

Ash’s POV The roar of the clubhouse hit me before I even turned off my engine. Laughter, shouts and the sound of bottles clinking rent the air and for a moment, I wonder how they could easily fall back into their normal lives less than twelve hours after an attack. It was chaos the way I remembered it, but somehow louder and more… non challant. Inside, the air was thick with smoke and sweat. A few brothers cheered when they saw me, others nodded, their eyes sharp, reading me like they weren’t sure what version of Ash had come back.
