I still couldn't wrap my head about what Mint told me yesterday, Olivia was targeted and it could be because of me, but who? Who would have done something as cruel as that to her? And why? I knew I was targeted once by the Nightshades. Cedric said it would have been an official who gave an anonymous tip to those assassins, but then I was targeted because of Cedric being next in line to the throne, could it still be the same? But it couldn't, I was no longer meant to be Empress, I wasn't of that political importance, but why? Why go after someone I care about rather than come to me directly? 

Olivia's life wasn't worth it at all, she didn't deserve to die that way for something she didn't understand, my grip subconsciously tightened against my gown.

"Lady Sylvia, are you alright?" Alice asked worried beside me, she must have noticed how tense I was.

"Nothing... I'm not just feeling well" I said in a whisper. 

"Are you coming down with something?"

The horses next to us distracted our talk, good because I didn't want to speak with her any further.

"It's Lord Cedric," she said elatedly.

Hence the day of Cedric's arrival came, and as ladies, we were meant to be at the entrance to welcome him.

I felt my heart quicken as the carriage came to a halt in front of us, my body stuttered, what wrong with me? Why were my nerves unsettled?

The door opened and Cedric came down, I felt like my soul left my body, more like it was still that very moment.

I knew it was two weeks but I felt like I hadn't seen him for years. Even as the sunlight highlighted his skin he stood like a god in human form, he WAS a god. I gulped as my body reacted in all sorts of ways and I felt shameless.

He ran his hand in his hair and it gave him a perfect picture, they were damp not just by the moisture but the heat, and trust me, it was very hot today, the summer season, or was it just me?

His green gaze fell on me and felt my body run hot, something glint within his eyes, what it was? I couldn't unravel, but his gaze on me burned like an eternal flame and like I was the only one standing like it was the both of us.

Dear gods, he was so beautiful, not handsome, this was wicked beauty before me and there was this certain urge to jump right at him but I just stood glued to the floor.

"Lord Cedric!" Alice said bowing as she rushed towards him. "Welcome back"

"Welcome back son, trust your journey went well?" Mother asked.

I felt a spark of pain flush through me as Alice wrapped her arm around his hand, he looked towards her.

"Mother I feel faint, can I leave" I whispered to her, she gave me a worried look.

"But you haven't talked to him yet"

"I know" I bit my lip, "And I will later, I really have to go now," I said as convincingly as I could, I didn't want to see this right... all the feelings, the thoughts of Cedric finally getting married to her overwhelmed me and I wanted to run away, something I do best.

"Alright my dear, I will check you later"

At her permission I was already out faster than my shadow, I felt a pushing pain in my chest and it unsettled me, it was best I left, it was best I stayed clear from him, it was all for the best because I didn't want any more of this, I thought I could bear it but it seems like I couldn't, it was hard watching the man I love gave all his attention to another woman like I didn't matter, it was sickening, I need to be away, far away, I didn't mind locking myself in my room for long.

My hand was grabbed, the sudden pull and touch startled me as I gasp, I was whirled and locked in strong arms which belonged to Cedric, I hoisted my head up to meet his gaze, I didn't even hear him come, how did?

"You haven't seen me for weeks and all you could do is walk away," he said, his jaw tightening in response, his eyes darker than usual.

He was here, he was right here, was this a dream? And his looks were filled with mixed emotions I couldn't comprehend, but I wouldn't give in to it. I was hurt.

"Do you know how much I have thought of you? Do you know how badly I wanted to be by your side?"

Don't believe him Sylvia he's just trying to play with your heart, even if he says those words he's still going to marry Alice, that spark the anger in me more, I forced him to let me go, it seemed like he obliged to it, because I didn't even have the strength to push him away.

"I do not care if you think of me.." I began holding malice in my tone, I didn't want to be subjected to this feeling when he chose another woman.

"I do not care if you longed for me", I poked his chest, I made sure I hid my emotion, I wanted to pour it out to him I wanted to let him know just how much I was hurt.

"I do not need your affections, go to hell with it!" I yelled, my breath heavy, my body burning, I looked him in the eye showing him just how angry I was, he was tormenting me.

But then he did something that caught me off guard, I had expected him to block his emotion or seem startled, but an amusement only just crossed his lips in the most wickedness matter, it made my knees weak, after what I said, wasn't he hurt at all, why? I was meant to make him angry but it seemed like I was only just tempting him.

"Do you really think I would believe those words, wildfire?" he said as something flashed within his eyes.

"Go to hell!"

"For you, gladly"

He came towards me.
