Gideon's mind was a complete mess right now. He just could not believe what was going on. When he thought back to all the things that had happened since he had woken up until now, they were all obvious signs that he could not even deny. Every single one of them were pointing to that one and irrefutable fact. The unbearable feelings he had felt surging within him the moment he realised that she had left, the intense and mind-numbing jealousy that hit him and inexplicable killing intent he had felt just…-

In the meantime, somewhere in the deepest part of the Monsters Forest. Vera was held securely in Gideon's arms. They had materialized moments ago after disappearing from the queen's room and Vera had been wondering for a while now where they were right now. She had somehow felt like they were no longer in the castle anymore. She could tell that Gideon was walking on an uneven patch of ground. She had tried to peek out from Gideon's dark cloak that was covering her completely, but he did not allow her…

Listening to the story Queen Beatrice was telling was like hearing a hauntingly beautiful and tragic story. A story that could make anyone's heart bleed. And the most painful thing was that it was not just some fairy tale being told for the sake of entertainment. This was as real as it got. And it happened to a person who was a family member. Queen Beatrice took in a deep breath. The story was not over yet, and Evie could not help but hope that the tragedy of this story stopped there. It was painful…

Evie had to press her lips tight together in order not to speak and just patiently wait for Queen Beatrice's answer to Gav's question. Her eyes gleamed with anticipation as she looked expectantly at the queen. "I believe so… yes," Beatrice said, and Evie's eyes stretched wide with shocked surprise. She had already suspected this before but still she could not help but feel shocked. How? Vera is a human and Leah's a dark fae, right? So how could Vera be Leah? "I believe Vera is technically Leah."…

Back inside the room, Beatrice, Evie and Gavriel were once again seated on their chairs. Their faces a little grave as their minds were all busy thinking back about Gideon and everything that had just happened. They were silent for a while until Beatrice let out a deep sigh and broke the silence. "Gideon… I've been worrying about what was going on with him." Beatrice started as she stared out the window before her eyes turned back and fell on Gavriel. "He had always been such a… a very good child. I…

"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Azrael exclaimed at Kione once Gideon and Vera disappeared from the room. "Dear lord, that was god damned close, Kione! I can't believe…" he trailed off and sighed as he finally took a step away from his friend, shaking his head in disbelief. "Are you trying to get yourself killed?!" And Kione just chuckled. There was an ironic tinge in his laughter as he shook his head. He had not done that deliberately just to make Gideon jealous. He did not have any plans to…

Gavriel could feel his brother's body shaking so terribly as his head was heavy on his shoulder. Gideon was gripping his arm so tight, as if he was desperately holding onto some lifesaving trunk while dangling off a cliff, refusing to fall. And not just that, Gideon's body was also so hot, Gavriel could feel the abnormal waves of heat oozing out. It was as though there was a furnace burning within him. Gavriel had noticed that the moment Gideon's dark magic settled down, his body seemed to have lost…

A while ago, while everyone was attentively listening in to Gavriel's report as he was updating them on what their King father had ordered when a sudden blast of dark magic seemed to have exploded out from the silent older prince. Everyone immediately turned their attention to him, eyes filling with confusion and surprise as to what had caused Gideon's dark magic to have been triggered so strongly like that. They saw how Gideon seemed to be oblivious about their presence now and perhaps, he has yet to…

Beatrice was smiling from ear to ear as she stepped away and walked closer to Evie as they both watch the brothers interact stiffly with each other. Not knowing that Gavriel's smile had faded as soon as Beatrice was behind him and could no longer see his face. "Good to see you back… my little brother." Gideon said back, forcing a smile as well as Beatrice was looking at him with so much gladness. Both her sons were good boys as they were not willing to see their mother sad. "So… you're the one…

Gideon who had stormed out of his room as if to chase after something urgently was suddenly stopped by the sight of a man standing right before the door. "You're finally awake!" Azrael immediately spoke. "Her Majesty wants to see you now, My Lord. Please follow me." A heavy silence reigned for a moment as Gideon stared at Azrael, considering what he should say to him. Gideon's hand on the door frame clenched tightly and his fingers created some dents on the frame. "Tell mother… that I'll go see her…
