Black Magic

Chapter 54: Bring Back My Lover

ASTRID'S POV

I can't believe he's gone. Thomas, my love, my everything.

How could this have happened? I stare at the spot where his head used to be, the blood still fresh in my mind.

The pain is unbearable, the tears flowing freely down my cheeks.

I can't stay here any longer. I need to see him, I need to be close to him.

I stumble outside into the cold, snowy night, the wind biting at my skin.

I make my way to the cemetery, my heart pounding in my chest.

I find his grave, the snow covering the ground around it.

I fall to my knees and start digging, my hands raw and bleeding. The tears mix with the dirt as I frantically dig, desperate to see him one last time.

Finally, I reach his body. I pull him out of the ground, his headless corpse limp in my arms.

I cradle him close, sobbing uncontrollably. The sight of him, lifeless and cold, sends me into a fit of vomiting.

I touch my stomach, feeling the emptiness inside me.

How can I go on without him? How can I live in a world where he no longer exists? The pain is overwhelming, suffocating me.

But I know I have to be strong. I have to keep going, for him.

I caressed his lifeless body, tears streaming down my face. I knew he was gone, but I couldn't bear to let him go.

I had loved him with all my heart, and now I was left alone in the darkness, haunted by memories of our time together.

I vowed to avenge his death, to find the one responsible and make them pay for taking him away from me.

But for now, all I could do was hold his lifeless form close to me, feeling the chill of death seeping into her bones.

I slowly dragged Thomas' body into the dungeon and I closed the door.

He has to be with me.

I started vomiting.

And I think there's a living being inside me.
