Chapter 338
"May I?" Anne asked, holding out her hand to the chains Killian held onto for Richard. "I won’t let him slip out. I promise."
Anne would not allow Richard to pull the chains out of her grasp and get away from her. She would die before she allowed him to get away and hide in this castle though it would be fun to watch the demons hunt him down.
Killian handed Anne the chains so she could do whatever she wanted with her husband. The chains were only too heavy on Richard’s end so he wouldn’t be able to run away unless he wanted to be in a lot of pain. Richard would also have to be a fool to try running away since it would speed up the process of him being hunted by demons.
Amelia waited for her mother to take the chains and then drag Richard to the other side of the room to go to Killian’s side.
"I’m a little hurt that you think your husband would keep secrets from you," Killian said, touching his chest. He would keep the trouble he got into with Lucifer because of the things he did for her family to himself in the past, but he wouldn’t now. Not when she stated she wanted to know everything.
Amelia would not fall for his lies. "Killian, you are the type of person who will do something for me or the people I care about and hide the fact that you got in trouble because of what you did. It is sweet, but I would rather you avoid making Lucifer angry. You two are close, but there is only so much he could take."
Amelia mostly feared that in return for letting her father’s soul be eaten, Lucifer would ask for something in return and then Killian would have to leave. Lucifer was more focused on his plans being completed to have time to care about Killian being away from his wife.
"You have only just returned to the castle. Do you want it that you can only see me at night? Is that what it is?" Amelia asked, trying to guilt him.
"Why did you have to say so much instead of just saying that you would miss your husband?" Killian asked, taking her right hand, and pulling her close to him. He ignored the way she patted his hand and spoke of her mother being in the same room. "I am not a fool to try something with you when we are in the same room as your mother. Why would you think such a thing?"
