I lay in the tub on the hotel terrace when I returned. The warm water slowly brought my body temperature back to normal. I leaned against the edge of the tub and looked up at the sky illuminated by the twinkling shiny lights.
Daley stepped into the bathtub naked, leaned over me. His usual calm voice lingered behind me.
“Are you at peace now?”
“Yes, I felt a kind of peace I had never experienced before.”
I've been waiting a long time for my death list to be emptied, and my revenge is almost over now.
“That gift from you is really special.” I looked at him. “Why are you doing this?”
“Because your pain is my pain, your hatred is my hatred.” He kissed my shoulder. “That's how I love you.”
“What do you want to know about me?”
“I want to know what you like.” Daley looked at me affectionately. “I can take you to anywhere you like for our honeymoon.”
