Bait

Madeline's POV

My heart was racing as I could feel the sweat on my palm as we neared the church where the funeral service was going on; it felt like I was having some trouble with my stomach since I felt like I wanted to use a restroom as I tried to stop my nervousness.

Even though we planned everything, I couldn't stop having doubts. I was anxious that things would go wrong, and I did not want to face failure or any damage resulting from our plan. 

Losing Parker and Rebecca was unexpected, and we were still having a hard time accepting what was going on with Hunter's family. I want to quit thinking that Clark has the ability to hurt my husband during the funeral because I know how much my father-in-law hated his son, after Hunter got married to me.

I know we were late, and it was part of our plan; we needed to capture the attention of everyone so that Clark would know I was there.
