Chapter 220 Bringing him out of darkness

Aria

'he's afraid.' Aria thought. after listening to Zane, she understood the fears she saw in his eyes. the fear of being accepted as though all his life he had lived like an outcast even though he was King Kaida's son. something like that wasn't going to disappear in one day just because she told him that she loved him.

even if Zane could hear the truth in her words, he would prefer to isolate himself and believe in what he had always believed all his life. it was his way of safeguarding his heart. his way of living.

'I need to bring him out of it.' Aria thought sadly. if she left him like this, he wasn't going to change. he won't want to change. Aria thought that Zane was no different from a blind man if he continued like this. he got his sight back but he still wanted to remain in darkness. his darkness. something he had unconsciously created for himself without knowing.

'I need to be gentle, let him know that he can trust me instead of assuming that he was going to trust me.'
