Chapter 34. The Waiters

Maureen's POV

I had never witnessed war. The feelings was so raw and real. I couldn't believe someone somewhere would be wicked enough to slit people's throat like that without remorse. 

Lance wouldn't stop asking if I was ok all through the night. I pleaded with him to go back to sleep but he wouldn't. 

Lucia too was very reluctant to leave my side but Dominus had somehow reassured her that with Lance's presence, I would be okay.
