Kael could not easily come to terms with his loss, and because he was stubborn-necked, believing it was fate that brought Lilah into his life, he could not believe fate was so cruel that it would take her away just like that.
He stared at her face, his finger softly caressing her cheeks. She was so precious and yet...
Even after a while, he could not hear any heartbeat, and her flesh was getting even colder. It was proof that she was indeed dead and there was nothing anyone could do to change that.
It shattered him.
He did not know why he felt so attached to her at first sight or why the sense of responsibility, an obligation he had never felt, washed over him, taking over his mind and reasoning and honestly... He didn't plan to think it through.
He only wanted to live in bliss and... Love her. He wanted to make her smile, assure her that in the world of darkness that she was only familiar with, there was a beautiful light standing next to her.
