Esme stared at Gabriel for a moment as she processed what he said. It was in the past, sure, but the part about killing his ex-lover kind of stood out to her. Did he kill her because she cheated on him with Cassius? Or was it the other way around? 

"Why.. did you kill her? Who was she? When was this?" She started bombarding him with questions and snapped her lips shut to stop herself from asking anymore. Gabriel would tell her; she knew he would otherwise; they wouldn't be sitting here right now. 

"Amelia was.."
