Her eyes told him she meant what she said. He smiled gently at her, but inside his evil heart was laughing evilly. He then hugged her in his arms. She hugged him back with a happy smile on her face. The sun who was watching them from the window sighed at Aurora's stupidity. Aurora didn't realize she was hugging the evil demon who wanted her head so badly. ********

Wayne felt as though a knife were carving straight into his heart. He refused to believe it. An act? If it was all an act, then what had he done these past months for Alma? He had taken from me the one thing my mother had left behind. He allowed Alma to hurt BunBun to the point of death.

He could not help but cover his face and sob quietly, only realizing what had truly happened later.

The kind that didn’t just enter your orbit — he made you aware you were already in his. She angled toward the bar, fingers brushing the satin clutch at her side. If Leo noticed, he didn’t show it. But Cass knew better. Men like him noticed everything. Cass offered a polite, noncommittal smile. “Sounds like you’ve got quite the story,” she said, keeping it vague. “Stories make the world go round, Ms…?” Grant—his name stitched into his leather portfolio—leaned in.

"This is the 99th time you got 'cold feet', so when will we attempt another escape to round it up to 100? "You never wanted to marry me in the first place, did you, Xavier? You've just been toying with me this whole time." Xavier's eyes widened, and shame welled up in him when he realized Aurora had seen through his plans. "I… That's not true. You know how much I love you, Rory." Aurora let out a self-deprecating laugh. "And yet… your love isn't even enough to save our baby."

he said carefully, his voice dropping, “I actu⁠ally ne‌e​d to​ t‌alk to y‌ou. Abou‌t something i‍mportant. I really nee‍d to ge​t t​his off‍ my‍ chest‍.” He thou⁠ght abou‌t his lif⁠e—the relationship he f​elt trap‌ped in,​ the baby everyone assumed he wa​s ex‍cited abo​ut, t⁠he future being p‍lanned‍ without ever asking if he w‍as happy. He wa​s‍n’t married. He wasn’t free. And he wasn’t at peace‌. ‍She ste‌ppe‌d back⁠. “No. I don’t care.”‍

Silence follows, heavy on the skin. “But,” I continue, stepping even closer, “I can come back. Often. And I can listen. I can learn your stories.

It can be long and strong. If we both hold on.” Now the cave grows quieter. As the Heart beats, it thinks. Then stillness returns.

The day the exam rankings are released and I claim the top spot is also my older sister's birthday. During the birthday party, everyone asks what she wishes for. She turns her head and looks straight at my fiance, her red lips curving into a smile. "I want first place. Can you give it to me, Professor Howard?" The man lowers his eyes, saying nothing. The next day, my name disappears from the top of the rankings. After that, I fail to place five times in a row. When I confront my fiance, he simply hands me a slice of sponge cake and says, "Your sister has it hard. If she can't place first at Imperial Academy five consecutive times, she'll be forced into an arranged marriage with that cri

Rather I accept my fate, knowing that my time is up. Ready to succumb to my fate, I lower my head to the ground, no longer trying to keep it up.
