"Why are you doing this?" his questions always straight to the point, but I don't have to answer in the same manner. He shouldn't know the reason why I'm doing this, not yet. 

"What do you mean?", I ask back with a tint of boredom. I have to hide well. 

"We could be happy together. You know I only have my eyes on you." 

I know, I wanted to say that to him. But this is not the same world I used to and I'm not the same old me. At the very least, I have to do this to repay all the things you've done for me. 

"You have no idea what you're saying, Cameron. Please give me some time to think." I turn my back to him, to the crown prince of the Loudrean Empire. 

"What's all this nonsense you've spouting since earlier? Give me explanation, Nina. What is going on?" his soft tone mixed with worries really tug at my heart but I know I couldn't delay this any longer. 

This is the best solution for him. Even if he doesn't think the same, I would still continue with this plan. I will destroy all of them. I will avenge your death along with my death. And I cannot do that while I'm standing beside you. I cannot ruin your second life as well. This is all on me. 

"Canina Rosemary, I demand you to look at me and answer me!" 

His sudden command jerk me back to reality. I look at him with a newfound thought that maybe, he's changed as well. Could it be? 

No, that could not be. I'm the only one that could remember our past life. Maybe the change of my decision would be the cause of his change? 

I lower my head with my hand on my chest and speak with utmost regret as I can, "Your highness, please forgive this humble subject, for I cannot give you the answer you're looking for. I will be happy to receive the suitable punishment for my inability to give you the right answer." 

Silence followed the answer I gave him, that I started to wonder if he's still standing in the same room. 

Light footsteps followed by his hand caught on my peripheral sight and I dare to look up to see what he's about to do. He cupped my face softly with his hands and I could only stare at him, speechless. 

Sky blue eyes staring back at me, and I could see what they're trying to convey through. No, please don't say it to me now. Please, do not do this. 

As if he understood what I was trying to say through my pleading eyes, he just smiled sadly and say what I'd dreadful to hear the most. 

"I love you, Nina. I'd hate to see the one I love lower their head in front of me. Please do not do that, ever."
