"Fine… as you wish, let's talk." He uttered with no warmth in his voice. "Let's talk about that man you married, Evie." Evie felt her heart squeezed in pain as she looked at him. His eyes were coated over with anger. Now that she was looking at him without that nagging thought that he was someone else, Evie realized how wretched he looked. And she could barely hold back her tears from spilling from her eyes. He had the look of a man who went through hell over and over. He was spilling over with so…-

It was as if everything came to a screeching halt. The entire throne hall became incredibly silent to the point that one could even hear a pin drop. None of the men even dared make a single move as the man who was sitting on the throne looked at the portrait. He became completely immobile, as if he had been turned into a marble statue. His eyes were glued to the portrait that was rolled out. Gavrael had decided to hunt down Evie's husband not only because of his own jealousy and hate. It is now…

Evie's eyes widened and she rushed towards him, but he had once again very quickly erected that invisible barrier that blocked her within, not allowing her to reach out to touch him. He smirked before disappearing without even giving himself a chance to listen to what she was saying. Biting on her lower lip hard, Evie clenched her fists tight as she looked helplessly at the closed door. He was driving her mad with so much frustration. Only this time, she could not possibly muster up any hatred towards…

When Gavrael entered the room again, his face was no longer filled with rage anymore. However, as Evie looked closely at him, his eyes still remained cold and distant. After all the things she had heard from that man Claudius, Evie did not feel like wanting to even process all that he had told her first. Nor did she want to think too much about it before doing anything. Right then, she had a strange feeling welling up within her as she looked at him. And before she could process what she was doing, she…

"So, you're saying… I and Gav… Gavrael was…" Evie could hardly process everything the man had told her. The strangest thing was that she was supposed to doubt and feel that what he told her was hard to believe, but she did not. Instead, she felt an inexplicable pain deep within her. As if her heart was mourning the loss of something that her mind cannot remember. "Yes, princess. Please believe that all the things I told you really happened. The reason why you cannot remember is not because you…

Evie was locked in his room again. She had angered him in the kitchen when she tried to negotiate with him on the matters of her comrades. He had wanted to literally bind her to him, and of course – she refused. Her immediate rejection caused him to fly into a rage. Though he did not shout at her or harmed her, Evie could feel it in his suffocating aura that was leaking out of him and the gravity in his eyes. And then he had gone and locked her up, even using some strange magic as an impregnable wall…

When Evie opened her eyes the next day, she was shocked to find the pair of strong arms that were securely wrapped around her. However, she did not panic at all because of the familiarity of that embrace. This was her Gavriel's embrace. She could recognise this even if she was blind. This was the embrace she had missed so much. And she could not help but revel in it. She happily burrowed herself into the warm embrace and enjoyed the feeling of being calm and relaxed. It truly has been a while since she…

_____ Back to the present… Gavrael clenched his fists tight as he stared at the portal. He knew he could not go back to the Under Lands anymore. This was one of the prices that he had to pay when he had managed to leave the lands of the dark faes without having the set side effects of losing his memories and magic. However, there is always a negative to a positive. There is always a give and take. Since he had taken the benefit of keeping his memories and magic, he had to give up something – and…

Gavrael did not know that his soul had been stuck in a world without Evie, a fake world created to make him suffer. This was his greatest fear, a world without her, a place where she does not exist. And this was the price he had to pay. He was going to continue living in suffering, always looking for her, forever. He would be stuck living in this world without her. And he would suffer and be tormented endlessly, continually looking for someone that he would never ever find. He was not aware that his…

Gavrael's legs gave out as he crumpled to the ground on his knees at the sight of his beloved's lifeless form slumped on the ground. Her throat and wrists were slit, and looking from the cut made, he could tell that it was done very neatly and with one vicious slash right across from right to left. It was obvious that they had drained her of her blood. There was the sound of his sword falling on the floor and Gavrael fell over her body. His entire being was shaking and the moment he held her in his…
