Chapitre 279: A HEAVY HEART

[Music Recommendation: Now We Are Free ~ 2 Cellos]

Raven held Lily closely, with his eyes closed. He needed a moment to get his thoughts together. First, it was Shadow, now Victor had called to tell him Azalea had been alive all these years, only to be declared missing upon Augustine's arrest. It wasn't the news he wanted to give to Lily.

If he were to tell Lily that her mother was alive only to find her dead, it would really break her heart. He didn't want to keep anything from her anymore, but he wanted to give Lily just facts.

"What happened to Shadow?" Lily asked after minutes had passed and they held each other in silence.
