"You didn't tell us you're coming home, Alpha." Aunt Graciana muttered.
We're in the midst of our dinner. Aunt Graciana invited us to join their meal. I refused at first 'cause I told them I won't be long but she insisted and I had no choice but to nod in approval. Harffiel might wonder what's taking us so long to go back.
"I'm sorry, Aunt. My come back isn't really planned." I explained and I turned to Royal who's watching me already.
Mrs. Mocetti and her husband sat across us, Throne got the center seat while I sat beside Royal.
"Mm." She nodded, chewing her food. Her eyes are on her plate. "How's your mom, anyway?" Then she shifted her eyes on me.
"She's fine." I smiled. "She's stable and by tomorrow, she's ready to be discharged."
"She's lucky she survived. I mean, don't get me wrong. Your mom is really stubborn. I kept on telling her she should relax."

The following morning, mom was discharged from hospital. We payed bills and we went home instead of going somewhere. I told mom to get some rest because she badly needs it."You need to rest, mom. You can start your work tomorrow." I insisted and she sighed in resignation."Okay, sweetheart. You too.""I will, mom." I said and smiled.I'm happy and content that mom and I are in good terms. Hence, I can't ask for more but to have a good relationship with her, and also with dad. I'm not hoping they will ask forgiveness from me 'cause this is more than enough. Besides, I have forgiven them. And I believe there's no reason to abhor them."I hope you'll stay longer here, Mr. De Marco." Mom said.We're taking our lunch together. Harffiel and I sit beside each other while mom and dad sit across from us."It depends, Mrs. Marcos. If dad won't mind it." Harffiel hu

"Do you have something to do?" Royal suddenly asked, making my heart flinch and I turned to him with a faint smile."None. I just wanna go home." I shrugged and turned around, walking back to our car."I have nothing to do as well." He informed me and I stopped from walking, breath's ragging."Okay." I curtly said and continued walking. I think I'm going insane everytime he's near me.I was about to open the car's door when he held my hand, sending tidal waves into my nerves and I abruptly pulled away my hand like he's burning me. I turned to him and caught his playful smiles."What do you think you are doing?" I raised my left brow at him but he just grinned at me. A hint of brilliance lingers in his eyes."Let me do the honor, Ms. Marcos." He said in a grin and opened the door. I then furrowed my brows at him."Tss." I hissed and rolled my eyes. I hunched as I stepped inside the car. And as I settled myself inside, he closed the doo

"We're happy to see you here, Royal," Nany said with a smile as she prepared our foods."I'm glad to be here again, Ny.""How is your business going?""It's good. It's still running."We ate together. My parents were also here. They were surprised to see Royal."It feels different that Harfiel isn't around," mother said casually while chewing her food. "He's like a son to me.""I'm pretty sure Harffiel likes to be your own child, Mom," I butted in."Didn't he court you?"I glanced at Royal. He stopped chewing upon hearing that familiar name.I smiled at her. "He's not into that matter, Mom.""I really thought he is your husband, Alpha. That's how he introduced himself to me.""Uh," I faked a smile. "That's just for show, Mom.""So, what's your plan now? You still don't have a boyfriend."I coughed at her statement. She didn't know I was already engaged to Royal. I was thinking if she wou

"What's your plan now?" I asked Royal as I walked with him to his car. "I want to marry you," he said without a doubt. My heart skipped a beat. Even a single word could take my breath away. He said it like he would never regret anything. He said it like he was so certain of his plan. "But..." I trailed off. The thought of my parents knowing what was between me and Royal gave me chills to the bone. I still wondered what would be their reaction if they would find out my engagement with fratello. "I know," he smiled reassuringly. "I can wait years again, Alpha, if it means having you for a lifetime." "What if they will find out about us and they will not agree with this?" I asked worriedly. "I don't want to lose you again, Royal. I can't afford another loss." "I don't want it as much as what you feel about it, Alpha. But don't worry. We will take things slow. We're not gonna rush this matter." "But can you really wait?"

"Good morning, Mom. Time for breakfast!" I told Mom happily as I woke her up the following morning.I had the great time this morning. My heart was so happy to hear Royal's name. I thought this would never end. I really hoped. I was starting to think of my future with Royal."Good morning, honey. You look so happy today," Mom remarked with a smile on her face."I'm just so excited, Mother.""Hmm," she gave me a teasing look. "What is it all about, honey?""Well, today I am planning to make my another batch of Marcos Painting.""Really?""Yes, Mother. I'll probably be very busy this week and the following months.""What will be your theme?""Anything about love, Mother.""Isn't it that it was your theme last collection?""Yes, Mother. I was thinking the world should never run out of love. What will happen if that will happen so?""You got a point there, honey. Whatever you think makes you happy. I can

I became busy as I had planned I would be. I bought my art materials and Nanny helped me to put all of them on my room. I decided to occupy and turn my room into my working place. I definitely loved it."Here's your milk, Alpha. Don't forget to feed yourself even if you are busy," Nanny advised me as she gave me a glass of milk with cookies on a clean plate."Thank you so much, Nanny. It's almost lunch. I forgot what time is it."I was enjoying mixing different colors to get the desired result. Time flew so fast when I was occupied."Yes, and you almost starve yourself to death."I smiled at her. She was right. But when I was busy, I tend to forget about my appetite."But thank you for reminding me that it's time to eat, Nanny. You're my alarm clock." I giggled.It was true. If it wasn't because of her, I would probably have a problem with my stomach."You're welcome, Alpha. Anything for you."When Nanny left, I continue

The doorbell rang. I hurriedly run towards the main door and opened it. I saw Royal standing beautifully on the front door. I smiled and waved excitedly at him."Hi!" I greeted with a big smile on my face."Hey," he smiled too and my heart melted.I stepped forward, straining myself to touch him."Wanna go inside?" I asked, pointing my thumb behind me."Yeah, sure."I pursed my lips and whirled around. I took a deep breath and relaxed myself.As I went back inside the house, Nanny welcomed me. She looked over my shoulder then smiled."Good day to you, Royal," she greeted with a smile."Same to you, Nanny. I just want to check Alpha if she's doing okay.""Oh," Nanny shifted her eyes to me. "Well, that's good." She turned to Royal again. "You're on time. She needs some help."Silence followe

One week passed and I finally finished my first artwork. I was utterly satisfied by what my hands and mind had done."This is so beautiful, Alpha," Nanny praised as she studied my masterpiece. "I haven't seen any forest like this."It was a magical forest with a lot of fireflies. There was a lake between the forest where the lights reflected on it. In the middle of the lake was a ripple caused by a firefly. And just above the trees was the moon casting its own light against the water."Thank you so much, Nanny.""What's your inspiration to this?""My own imagination, Nanny. I dreamt of myself running here whenever I am hurt. This is my escapism."She looked at me with pity. I couldn't blame her. She knew my pain. She knew what I went through."But sometimes running away isn't the solution to every problem, Alpha. You have to face it. Conquer it. Show to the world that you are not weak. You are not damaged."I smiled weakly. At
