"Leo!" I heard someone faintly call.
"Leo!" The voice called again.
My head went from the gravestone towards the direction of the voice.
A blurred view of Thalia came into my sight as I stood at the corner of the venue.
"It's time to say goodbye to her." Thalia informed me.
I couldn't come to terms with the fact that Riona was no longer with us and more so that she died right in my arms.
"You have to. You were her only real friend." Thalia said in a bid to encourage me.
I looked up at Thalia who forced a smile as our eyes met.
If she can be so strong after losing her sister then I can definitely do better.
After taking a deep breath I followed behind Thalia who lead me to the funeral ground and there, the only people present were Iris, Cassidy and mister Joe.
Iris came running to me and wrapped her hands around me with tears running down her cheeks.
My heart broke at the sight of it but I had to stay strong for the girls there so I blinked my tears away and went down on my knees to comfort her.
"It's alright Iris," I said to comfort her by fighting my tears. "Riona wouldn't have wanted you to cry so much." I said.
"Say your final goodbye, Iris." Thalia told Iris who couldn't control her tears and I don't blame her, I can't imagine how I'd feel if i buried both my father and sister on the day.
She walked over to the table at the side, picked two flowers, with her still sniffling, she walked over to her father's grave and said a word or two before moving to Riona's.
After saying her goodbyes she went running to Thalia who comforted her and then her mother went next.
When she finished saying her last goodbyes I walked over to Riona's grave and a tear slipped out of my eyes.
I wiped it away with my arm but it only led to more tears spilling out of me.
She was so young, she had all her life right in front of her, she spent all her life catering for her siblings and didn't even get to live her life to the fullest.
All the memories of us together came flowing back to me and I really wanted to spend more time with her.
I'll never forget you Riona, the first girl who caught my attention and the first girl I really liked. Life was rough with you so I pray you are at peace now. Rest well Riona Davis, rest well.

Hey guys!
This is the end of 'Undercover Assassin' and I really hope you enjoyed it.
I am sorry I took forever to write this epilogue but I was skeptical on how to write it.
I know the ending is a bit sad and we all feel bad for everyone involved even my heart couldn't let me leave the end this way which is why I decided to write a sequel.
The sequel will be centered around Leonardo and Winter (from my other book titled 'Her Protector') then enjoy the appearance of other characters like Thalia, Iris and Cassidy. It is titled "Legally Married" and can be found on my profile :)
Thank you all for reading UA!
