While Maxon and Aspen were praying for the worst to not to come, Azriel was taken to the police station, Mikhael insisting on joining him, for the sake of an additional insight and opinion. As commanded, he stayed silent during the entire car ride, his mind only on Nesryn, guilt still budding inside his mind and heart, knowing he had knowingly caused her, his very dear lover, pain and anguish.

He really couldn't bear the idea that he had caused Nesryn to lock herself in, to have caused her fear to the point of crying herself to the point of exhaustion and actually passing out in the process. What would have happened if they decided not to bother Nesryn that morning, would he have lost the most precious person to him, due to his own thoughtlessness at that, he couldn't bear to suffer through living in a world without Nesryn beside him.
