Married to the Devil's Son novel Chapter 297

Chapter 297: 174

Trigger Warning: Emotional pregnancy loss

********************

Heaven's arms became numb. She had rubbed the necklace as much as she could, so she hoped it would work. Now she was worried about her grandmother. Hopefully Zamiel and Ilyas would arrive before she was hurt.

Suddenly the door was knocked down, and Zamiel stood at the entrance.

"Heaven!" He was beside her at the next moment.

"Zamiel," she almost cried in relief. "Grandma! Save grandma first."

"Both your grandfather and Euphorion have gone to save her." He assured.

She saw that his eyes teared up upon finding her. He had truly been scared. "What is all this blood? What did they do to you?"

Heaven swallowed the hard lump in her throat. It became difficult to breathe again just thinking about it. How could she tell him? He had been so happy. She had been happy.

Tears began to stream down her face. She couldn't prevent it. She opened her mouth and felt the words cut through her throat. "Our child…" was all she managed to say before bursting into tears.

Zamiel understood what she meant, but she couldn't see his face to know what he felt of all the tears that blurred her vision. She just felt him wrap his arms around her. "I am sorry." He said, his voice thick with pain as he stroked her back.

He let her cry in his arms, and she wished she could hold him back, but she couldn't move. She couldn't even wipe all the tears away from her face.

Zamiel carried her up and took her to her room. Her mother was already waiting there, looking anxious. Even though she was only gone during the whole night and the morning, her mother seemed to have noticed her absence, or maybe Zamiel told her.

"Heaven!" She hurried to her side as soon as Zamiel lay her down on her bed.

Heaven couldn't move her body except for her head. "Mother." More tears flowed from her eyes.

"Oh no, don't cry." She said, leaning over her and giving her a hug. She kissed her forehead and wiped her tears away. "Everything is alright now."

She looked over at Zamiel, and her expression slowly turned into a pained one. Now she knew why Heaven was crying.

"Heaven." Her mother stroked her hair back while trying to remain strong for her. "My strong girl. I am so sorry." She said, looking pained.

Heaven shook her head. "I couldn't protect…" She couldn't even finish her sentence.

"No. None of this is your fault." Her mother said, wiping the tears away from her face and then cupping her cheek. "Never blame yourself for this."

Heaven tried to stop crying and nodded.

Her mother held her hand tightly and kissed her knuckles. She couldn't fight back the tears anymore and cried with her.

Heaven tried to think positively. Her grandmother was safe, and so was she. It could have been worse for her family and Zamiel if they had to grieve more than the loss of one person, but the emotions just welled out of her.

Even though she wasn't crying loudly this time, the tears just left her eyes and she couldn't stop them.

"Grandma…" she then asked.

"Your grandmother is here now." Zamiel told her.

Somehow she got a bad feeling about her grandmother. It felt like Zamiel wasn't telling her everything.

"Mother, you should go see Grandma instead."

"I will." She looked over at Zamiel, probably asking him to take care of her meanwhile. He gave her a nod.
