“Thank you,” she whispered, tracing the letters carved into the stone with her fingertips. “I’ll love him forever.”

“Goodbye, my love,” I heard Celestina’s voice for what I knew would be the last time.

Kensington closed her eyes and smiled. When she opened them and looked at me, I saw her tears.

“What is it, my darling?”

“She told me that you will love me forever too, and then she said goodbye.”

We walked back to the house, hand in hand, laughing to ourselves when Kensington said that, like the Queen, Celestina also had brilliant match-making skills.
