Once Caius finally left the father and daughter pair, Evie could barely compose herself. Only god knows how hard she tried to stay passive from all the things she had heard. She was surprised at herself on her own persistence and will. She never thought she could actually act this well. From the outcome of things so far, her acting must have been quite convincing. Perhaps it was true that people could really do the impossible when pushed into a desperate state. However, she could no longer stop the…-

Several hours later. When the door opened, Evie nearly burst out in a smile at the sight of Leon standing tall and stiff next to her father. But she immediately bit down on her lip instead because someone she did not expect came along with them. The crown prince was also here! What was he doing here? Not forgetting to continue on with her acting, Evie was quick to greet the vampire prince. "Greetings to you, Your Highness." Evie addressed him with a small curtsey. She hoped in her heart that her…

"He is the traitor, and this city is only forced to aid him, I believe because of their fear of him since you yourself told me this prince is a monster the vampires can't even manage to kill." Lucius continued when Lorcan remained silent. "It's hard to blame the citizen for aiding him. And instead of destroying them, why not use this city's army to your advantage to help us hunt this prince? You yourself, told me that this city's army is formidable." "Alright, we will continue this discussion in the…

Evie pulled herself up to her maximum height, straightened her back and clenched her jaws. Pulling her hood over her head, Evie bravely stood before the approaching army. Her silvery hair had been drenched by the cold rain, but she could barely feel the cold at that moment. Her focus was all on the army before her and how she could achieve her aim with them. Now that she had a close up look at the army, Evie was glad about standing firm on her decision in being the one to meet and talk to them. From…

With a shaky breath, Evie steeled herself and looked ahead. She was not going to cry. This was the time for her to be strong because Gavriel wasn't beside her now. And she promised him she'd be fine. So she will not cry and crumble because she knew Gavriel was doing the same, knowing how much he struggled for him to leave her. She took another steadying breath and straightened her back, gathering all the courage that she had and looked ahead with a determined gaze. 'You can do this Evie. Everything will…

Evie tilted her head to one side, wondering why Gavriel would make such a request out of her. Gavriel took her hands in this and put the necklace which was already inside a small purse on her palm. "I don't want anyone, especially Lorcan and his men, to know about this. You understand Evie?" he said seriously. "Never let them see this… you can't give any more additional reasons for them to take interest in you. Not that they are not already interested in your person…" he hissed under his breath,…

Gavriel immediately walked over to Zolan. "Did you find out anything on the necklace?" he asked curiously as he took the necklace back from him. "First things first," Zolan replied as he brought out two more necklaces and one ring – all of them having a similar feature – with the same black stone, "I need Her Highness to put these on." Hearing Zolan's words, Evie quickly made her way to Gavriel's side and stared at the jewelleries in Zolan's hands. The two necklaces have an even larger black gem…

The reason why he wanted to insist on this plan was because he knew what kind of person the emperor was. He was not a man easily fooled. And that was why they needed to take drastic measures to kill off any major doubt that might arise. However, when Evie told him about her plan and after seeing the confidence and strong will shining fiercely in her eyes, Zolan could not respond. It was happening again. Zolan was feeling that same thing he felt towards her when she was insisting to enter the dungeon.…

"When did you fall in love with me?" Evie asked, curiosity shone forth from her eyes. Her large eyes were glimmering as she gazed at him. "You were… so nice and kind to me ever since we met. Even when the times I was being so ridiculous, you were…" she paused as she searched his eyes, "you were so patient and so good to me." When Gavriel simply stared back at her, Evie knelt before him and looked up at that face that could drive thousands of women wild even with his icy look. She then smiled before…

"Please…" her voice came out weak, pleading. "Don't. If you do that, my dream… my dream will come true, Gavriel. Please listen to me. In my dream, I was here in this tower while the entire Dacria is on fire." She said, as her tears run down her cheeks. "I was shouting out your name… but you never came." Evie's voice broke at the end. Gavriel was taken aback and looked completely surprised at what she had said. With the utterance of those words from Evie's mouth and the tears that were falling from…
