Capítulo 240: Preparing for tonight

Roxana became completely heartbroken as she listened to Alexander's story. So much pain, loneliness, confusion, and betrayal, and it has been going on for so long. Every time she thought things would get better, it only got worse, and when he finally came to talk about the most recent times things got only more painful and confusing. 

He told her about Angelica and William and their connection to the woman he used to love. Ramona. The prophetess. Another being she didn't know existed. And then he told her about Constantine and his father and how he recently suspected that it wasn't the shades who killed his parents as he thought. He was worried that there would be an enemy out there still and that he might lose her. He had been through so much loss. He couldn't take another one. 

Roxana wiped away the tears that had been streaming down her face and kept holding his hand tightly the whole time.
