His true identity!

The others gasp at her words, surprised that she had rejected the Alpha King's proposal and had rejected him, but they didn't say anything.

“Why do you want to avoid me?”

“I don't want to. I wish I could be happy without having to suffer a lot of pain, that's all.”

“You're talking nonsense. I love you, Celine, and I won't ever let you go unless you tell me that you want me to.”

“And what makes you think I want you to stay with me?” 

 She asked angrily.

“Because I love you! Why does everybody always think that they are going to get what they want by hurting other people? I love you, Celine, you are mine!” He said, grabbing both sides of her face.

“Stop saying those stupid things! Stop pretending that you love me and that we are meant to be together. I already told you that I don't deserve you. Don't waste your time trying to convince me otherwise. I know I'm unworthy of you.” She said and tried to pull away from his grasp, but he held her tight.

“Celine, why are you saying such cruel things? I love you, I have loved you forever, and I will never stop loving you.”

Celine closed her eyes tightly to prevent herself from crying and pushed him away from her.

She couldn't bear seeing him getting mad at her and losing his temper.

“Get out! Please.” She yelled.

“Why are you behaving like that? Why have you always rejected me?” King Roman feels so frustrated because the woman he was most in love with kept rejecting him, even though she was already pregnant with his baby.

“I hate you! I hate that you love me and that you have chosen to love me! Get out! Now! Before I kill you! “She yelled again and kicked him hard.

The king winced in pain at her kick and fell to the ground.

“I'll do whatever I want! And if you try to do anything to me, you won't see tomorrow!” She said and glared at him.

He then stood up and headed towards the door. Once he was gone, Celine immediately broke into tears and fell to the floor.

After that incident, all the staff members came to know about it. They all felt sorry that the king wasn't allowed to see her, he surely must feel so bad about what he did.

This is the first time for King Roman to have A rebellious person against all of his authority, and that was Celine.

Only her that kept against all of his wants the evilest, cruel, heartless King from the Dawn Kingdom.

But regardless of what Celine has done to him, he is still madly in love with her since the first time he saw her.

 He wanted to prove to her that he loved her.

The day after, Celine finally woke up. She went to the balcony that overlooked the ocean, looking over the beautiful scenery. It had become peaceful and tranquil again. 

She took a deep breath.

She missed this. This feeling when she had nothing to lose.

She closed her eyes and breathed deeply.

Just before she could open her eyes again, someone knocked on the door and walked in.

“Good morning, princess. How are you feeling?” King Roman greeted her, smiling warmly at her.

She didn't utter a word, simply stared at him. His smile faded.

“Did I hurt you?” He asked concerned.

“You should know that I don't respond well to being touched when I'm sleeping.”

“Oh, I'm sorry, Princess, I forgot that I should never disturb you in your sleep.” He said apologetically and bowed to her.

He was about to walk out of the room when she spoke up.

“Wait!” He turned around and faced her.

“How come you were so close to me yesterday when I was unconscious? I don't understand why I'm not feeling anything different, I'm not feeling any pain or nausea whatsoever.”

He smiled at her question.

“When you were in deep sleep, your soul, and body became closer to each other. Your soul merged with your body during your dream state, and therefore you didn't notice.”

“What?” She said, in shock.

“I heard that you were a very light sleeper, and I'm lucky that you didn't hear me knocking on your door.”

“So you kissed me?.” She exclaimed angrily.

“No, I didn't kiss you.” He chuckled.

"What do you mean, 'you didn't?”

“When our souls connect, there are times when we touch each other with our minds. We can form an intimate connection.”

“I don't believe you.”

“I am telling the truth, Celine.” He said softly as he cupped her cheeks in his palms.

“You don't believe me.” She repeated, a little amused.

“I do believe you.”

“Why?”

“Because when you're in my presence, you can only imagine how much I want to take you into my arms.” He said seriously.

His tone sounded so sincere that Celine couldn't help but smile.

“If only you weren't afraid to show me your true self.”

“My true self is everything, Celine. I can't hide my true feelings from you.” 

King Roman lowered his head so that he could place his forehead gently on hers.

“Don't be scared, I'll never hurt you.” He murmured as she closed her eyes and placed her forehead on his.

They remained silent for a few minutes before Celine broke the silence.

“I forgive you.”

“Forgive me for what?”

“For breaking my heart.” She whispered.

“I didn't break your heart, Celine.”

“Yes, you did. I can't stand seeing you so weak and pathetic.”

“It's because I'm weak that I don't want to hurt you anymore.”

“You've already hurt me too much. I just want you to disappear in a heartbeat. Go back home, please.”

“Please listen to me, Celine…”

“Go home with me.” 

“No… I need to tell you something.”

“Then tell me later.”

“No, I need to tell you now.”

“No.”

He sighed heavily, “Alright, Celine.”

“Thank you.”

He slowly got off her and sat down next to her.

“Do you remember when I first met you? You were so cute, so innocent and naive, and every time I looked at you, I could feel a strong attraction towards you and the way you looked at me, like you knew my secret.”

“What secret?" Celine asked, curiosity clear in her voice.

“Well, I've always known that you have a sister.”
