AMARIS
I was confused as hell trying to process what he just said.
Was he saying no because he wanted to not be the murderer in my eyes, but he just admitted openly to actually sleeping with Freya so why would he deny murdering his wife except that maybe murdering his wife was a much bigger crime?
Wait, of course murder is a huge crime, Amaris. What am I even thinking right now?
"I know you said this is just a true or false questions game, but your sons believe that you did kill her." I looked directly into his eyes, searching for any hint of deception. "So which one is it? Because they seem pretty convinced."
He exhaled deeply, his chest rising and falling beneath me in a long breath.
"There is a lot they don't understand about the fated mate bond." His voice came out quiet, contemplative. "Maybe one day if they get to meet their fated mate, they will understand what it does to you. How it consumes you completely."
