“Elisha,”

Lucerne whispered softly to wake her up. Two contradicting needs rose up concurrently; part of him wished to assuage her, and one other wished to listen to extra of what she needed to say. Then, she grabbed him in her sleep and clung to him for expensive life.

“Forgive me, please don’t hate me… … .”

wept Elisha.

“To you… … I’m sorry for messing up. I ruined every little thing… … .”

Elisha tightened her arms wrapped round him and murmured in confused desperation, nonetheless in a dream-like state. Lucerne froze, unable to maneuver.

So shocked, he felt a physical-like blow as if he had been pummeled a number of occasions within the abdomen and the highest of his head was struck by lightning. Her small fingers grasped Lucerne’s collar roughly, virtually tearing it off. Though within the midst of sleep, she madly burrowed into him.

Though it was a physique he had embraced many occasions earlier than, he was shocked; her physique was too small… … . mushy and delicate.

His coronary heart beat so vociferously that his lungs ached. It was the sort of ache he had by no means skilled earlier than. Lastly, Elisha’s physique slipped away and fell. He gasped.

At that very second, Lucerne couldn’t breathe.

***

Elisha opened her eyes unhurriedly. She felt the silk blanket wrapped round her. It was the room she stayed with Lucerne within the palace. She turned her head and located Lucerne sitting in a chair.

“Are you awake?”

he requested. Elisha nodded cautiously. He slowly rose from his seat however then sat again down. The primary emotion she felt was concern.

‘In my earlier life, Lucerne noticed these names and went mad. Perhaps this time… … .’

I’d die—she felt such concern. Elisha reflexively positioned her hand on her neck.

But, the scenario was distinctly totally different than anticipated. Lucerne was wanting down at her indifferently.

Elisha’s throbbing coronary heart slowly sank. She was immediately conscious of the expression she was sporting, particularly the place of her eyebrows. Realizing she was frowning, she launched and forcibly relaxed her brows and resumed her composure along with her standard calm countenance. She sat up slowly.

“Did I faint?”

“Sure,”

Lucerne answered quietly. It was the primary time Elisha had seen him in such a situation. He was simply… … . quiet. Nonetheless. He had no expression, like a person with out emotions. Elisha tried to learn the feelings in his gaze.

That occurred in her previous life. The reminiscence of her shivering within the membership, soaked in a sea of blood, was probably the most terrifying factor she had ever skilled. So, she revealed her frailty for a second. As a result of the center is just not metal. At moments like these, she would notice that she was helplessly and inevitably imperfect.

“Are… … you indignant?”

Elisha requested quietly. She seemed into Lucerne’s eyes.

“I’m not so mad with jealousy. After all, there could possibly be somebody penning a love letter to you,”

Lucerne responded evenly as he clenched and loosened his fists. Elisha felt as if there was extra anger than she might have imagined behind his calmness.

“That’s not a love letter.”

“I do know,”

Lucerne replied briefly.

“I additionally know that you simply’re not silly sufficient to decide on the creator of such a slipshod love letter as an adulterous colluder. How demanding you’re.”

“… … .”

Lucerne didn’t say that he believed that she wouldn’t commit infidelity. He stood up. He lifted the letter from his desk.

“You appear to know these names.”

Elisha balked. She realized it was too late to faux in any other case.

“… … I overheard it by likelihood.”

“Are you just a little ghost once more? Occurring to overhear the precise info. Are Jacob and Carola so talkative?”

“… … When they’re alone within the workplace, they speak loads. I used to overhear it from a secret passageway.”

Just one nook of his mouth rose scarcely. His eyes had been nonetheless not smiling.

“When.”

“What?”

“When precisely did you overhear that? Final yr?”

“Final yr… ?… . no. It was round this time two years in the past. I overheard it by likelihood whereas roaming across the secret passage.”

Elisha asserted calmly. She knew he was looking for faults and holes in her story. Round this time final yr, Gaju took Jacob and his spouse to a resort.

The pinnacle maid had chosen her to stitch garments for Carola’s resort journey. Apart from, all the mansion would noisily put together garments after they went to the provinces.

Elisha thought-about herself very lucky that she had a great reminiscence.

“Sure, I see. Round this time final yr, I, the Head, and the Jacob couple met in Yurif.”

Lucerne was satisfied. Elisha wished to exhale and pat her chest in reduction.

“Lucerne, about you… … . They mentioned you felt dangerous round this time of the yr. And mentioned the way you had episodes and ran amok… … . Simply by listening to these names,”

Elisha mumbled quietly. And it was true. In her first life, it was the next yr that she overheard that actual anecdote.

‘Presently they died, so Lucerne is in a foul temper. Simply the mere point out of these names brings on a violent episode. We should encourage the Lord to conflict with him throughout this era. That’s Carola’s specialty, so we are able to do it effectively.’

It was a passing comment she heard. On the time, she didn’t know what she was speaking about. The precise that means of Carola’s phrases was belatedly found years later. The day Lucerne slaughtered everybody on the Crimson Membership.

“What had been you so afraid of? It’s all proper.”

Lucerne clicked his tongue.

“Have been you so afraid that you simply fainted?”

She registered Lucerne’s candid demeanor and nodded. However when he held out his hand, she flinched. However she didn’t keep away from him. He caressed her head.

“Did I get mad at you?”

“You didn’t. However you appear very indignant… … .”

Elisha answered quietly.

“I do know. You… … . that after you lose belief, it’s over. That’s our relationship… … . In case you get indignant, I… … .”

Elisha spoke frankly. Lucerne’s pupils step by step sank, his eyes grew darkish, and his temper appeared to deteriorate.

He was reacting very unusually. He appeared unhappy and hid his suppressed anger. However greater than that, he knew she was extra centered on him than herself. If it was Elisha, he might inform.

Lucerne requested,

“Would you want me to go away the room?”

Elisha was shocked that he was being so thoughtful. Lucerne had by no means been caring like this. Elisha was at all times there by his facet, at his beck and name.
