A Love That Turned to Dust
The urn fell from his hands and crashed into the floor, causing my ashes to scatter everywhere.
His smirk now malicious, Dominic said, "Oops! Sorry about that. It slipped from my hands."
After that, he stuck out a foot and began grinding my ashes down.
My breath was hitched in my throat as I met Dominic's eyes, which were devoid of any mirth. I opened my mouth, yet I couldn't make a sound.
Only when my ashes were completely ground into the gaps between the tiles and mixed with the dust did Dominic retract his foot. There was a pleased look on his face.
