As soon as our lips met, I finally felt my heart... beat for the first time in eight months. The same heart that had died, frozen in time in his last moments. Should I be happy? Relieved? No. I knew this man I was kissing passionately was someone else. However, I couldn't stop myself. The tenderness of his lips and how his firm arm gripped around my waist as he carried me to the bed just melted the ice around my heart. I missed him, and even those words were an understatement of how I longed for…

"Everything." He answered, eyes on me. "I think you're not dumb enough to think you can beat me if we butted heads right now." "Take that face off and see what I will do." I leaned forward, taunting him. "Unfortunately, I can't. Why don't you just accept that this face is my face?" "Hah... bold." I chuckled, rocking my head as my eyes fell on my unbound feet. "I like your attitude, can't expect anything less from someone who disrupts the peace of my land and abducted me here.." I bent my knees…

"However, if I came out here alive, you better start looking over your shoulder because I will make sure you will regret using their faces and insulting them like that." There was a long moment of silence as the three of them stared at me. Strange, I thought. I could see neither abhorrence nor displeasure in their eyes. If anything, there was this strange remorse and worry flickering across their eye. Why? Was what I wanted to ask, but I decided to ignore it. "We don't plan to torture, violate, or…

Meanwhile, Klaus suddenly paused in pursuing Lilou's scent when he noticed that some knights with him collapsed one after another. His brows furrowed, looking back before gazing up at the sky. "Damn it!" he ground his teeth as his hand clenched. The naked eye couldn't see it, but he knew someone had unleashed a powerful ability across Grimsbanne. His mind then went back to the memory of the person who abducted Lilou. All he had seen was his back, and even with the blood dripping from Lilou and the…

All I could do was watch Klaus yell as he dash towards us. I held my hand out, but this man jumped off the hill. My breath hitched as we fell down and at that moment, the world felt like it revolved slower. I couldn't act or retaliate for a second as I tried to absorb everything that had happened. "Hold tight, my wife." The impostor's voice snapped me out of my trance and the world returned to its normal pace. "We will have a long… ah! Wait! Stop biting me!" His feet crashed on the slope, but I…

"Sam..." He snapped his head, drawing his lips away from my hands, and faced me. The side of his lips curled up into a gentle smile as his eyes softened. "Did you miss me?" he asked in a low tone, guiding my hand to his lips with his eyes on me. "Because I do, and words aren't enough to describe how I longed for you." His voice went past my ears, as I could only stare at him like a fool. He truly looked like Sam, speak like Sam, and felt like Sam. "Wake up, Lilou," I whispered, laughing under…

Meanwhile, in Fabian and Rufus's location, Fabian raised a pebble with both his hands as if worshipping it. "This is the last one," he announced, before throwing it to Lilou's location. "There! She will find His Grace." A large grin appeared on Fabian's face, nodding in satisfaction as this idea of his would surely make Samael forgive him. If not, he'd just have to start practicing breathing underground to last longer. "Sir Knight, brother, you..." He trailed off, furrowing his brows as soon as he…

As I've planned, I followed the direction where the pebble directed me to go. It stopped me from going on a different path and it led me to this place. The hill where I used to live. "Whoever it is, he surely knows where to press a nerve." A ridiculing chuckle escaped my mouth as I gazed up at the path going up the hill. "Now I'm a bit pissed." Regardless, I still trekked my way up and the pebble already stopped coming. I didn't know why he would lead me to this place, but it left a bitter taste in…

After shooting that warning shot, Klaus and I galloped our way to the borders of Grimsbanne. On the way, I instinctively increased the grip on the reins to halt my horse and have a shift of pace. "Your Grace!" Klaus yelled as he trotted in my direction. I ignored him as my eyes landed on the small hollow caused by another pebble not far away from me. "Does this mean this is not the way?" I murmured, raising a brow as a pebble would land on the way, as if the person who was throwing them was telling…

"She smeared her blood on it so we know where she is." Rufus cast Fabian a look while crumpling the piece of paper attached to the arrow. "She's basically telling us to target her instead. Do you have any idea who is the person you shot the pebble to?" Fabian shrugged indifferently. "I'm simply following His Grace's orders." "There must be someone inside Grimsbanne with Her Grace." Rufus took a deep breath, throwing a pebble towards the guard towers. Unlike Fabian, Rufus' throws weren't as…
