He held her sharp gaze, knowing this wasn't something she would ever let go.
Deep down, Lucian had expected her not to care about anything else—that she would only focus on staying by Liza's side.

It was strange to come to such a realization at a time like this.
Lucian gave a slight nod, keeping his eyes on her.
"They will pay," he muttered, his voice low. "We'll make sure of that."
Ashley bit the inside of her lip and returned a faint nod before finally looking away. Her gaze drifted to the altar as she swallowed the tension in her throat.
