The Beast And The Blessed Chapter 42

Forty-Two: Natalie

Natalie’s P.O.V.

Tobias grunted as I turned to him and let out a deep breath. My eyes felt dry, and my smile fell as soon as Killian was gone. It finally made sense why I felt so connected to him… why I felt like something was missing when he wasn’t around. But what I was feeling now was more than just my mate being away from me. I felt a crushing pain in my chest from the news of my parents dying.

She was dying anyway. He just put her out of her misery.

I met Tobias’s eye, and he tilted his head toward the hallway. It was time for me to act like the queen and to be there for the man who had risked his life to protect mine. It wasn’t time to grieve, and the more I thought about the events of today, the angrier I was becoming. I wanted revenge. I wanted blood.

It took a moment for me to collect myself, but I lifted my chin and made my way out of the room.

I nodded in greeting to each person I passed on my way to the infirmary, and they dipped into a bow or curtsey in return as I walked by. I could hear the shouting of multiple men over the sound of screaming, and I slowed.

Maybe now wasn’t a good time…
