For His True Love, He Lost His Throne
"You're overthinking it, Don Rossini. I let you in because the weather is nice today, and I thought watching a Bastardo struggle might be entertaining."
He flinched, as if he'd never expected to hear the word "Bastardo" come from my mouth. In the past, no matter how many times he failed, I had always been by his side to encourage and praise him.
He stayed silent for a long time. Finally, as if gathering all his courage, he asked again, "Bianca, are you just going to watch me die and do nothing?"
I met his gaze and replied with certainty, "Yes. I want to see you fall from your pedestal and pay the price for your betrayal."
