บท 87: [87 - Crossroads]

It did not take much time to Elijah to fall asleep. He had not only been physically tired but because of the recent events, he felt emotionally drained and exhausted as well. All he needed right now was Seraphina to be by his side so that he could sleep peacefully knowing that she was here, in front of him. Safe and sound.

He was asleep the moment his head hit the pillow. The rhythmic sound of his breathing filling the quiet room. Seraphina, unable to move her gaze away from Elijah, just laid there by his side, holding his hand in hers. She kept on looking at him feeling guiltier by every passing second.

She was not feeling so because of her revenge. That is something that she would never stop aiming for anything or anyone. She was feeling guilty of hurting an innocent soul who had no part in what happened to her, her family, and all the other crimes that his family members committed.
