Aftermath

Alicia’s POV

I stood frozen, still in shock from everything.

I…I had killed someone.

Regardless of that person being Ghalia, the woman that had nearly tried to kill me because she wanted Mikael back, it still left something deep inside me that I couldn’t shake no matter how hard I tried.

I could hear the voices around me, yet all that could think about was the dead body and the splatter of blood.

A small touch at the small of my back was what brought me back to reality. I turned to meet Mikael's green eyes.

“Hey, you okay Tesoro?” He asked, gently.

I didn't know if i was. I swallowed thickly, before I nodded.

“Lets go to your place.” He murmured in my ear. His deep voice rumbledd in my ear soothingly, sending tingles down my spine. I closed my eyes and accepted his offer.

He took me into the car and we drove off. I rested against him the whole time,
