"Any last words?" Archie asked.
Alexis started to lose consciousness. "Miss Mirabelle… sorry I chose the wrong path."
The image of a woman with long white hair with a beautiful smile entered his view. He could remember how warm her hand had touched his head when she praised him for being a smart kid.
Alexis' eyes slowly closed. Archie tightened his jaw and then let go of his hand, letting Alexis' body fall into the river. Archie turned around without wanting to see his brother's body being dragged away by the river water.
"And I'm the winner," he muttered bitterly.
After his father's first attack, Archie was ordered by Ronan to hide in the forest. He didn't want Archie to be killed and leave Nieverdell without a king.
Ronan, Kael, Lucas, and Lazarus had slaughtered his family in there. But Archie didn't show any sadness at all. Instead, he felt lost by Alexis' departure.
