Walden opened the door slightly and entered the room. He walked closer to the bed and looked at Alison.
''Why did you cry upon seeing the photo of Kaada? Is there a chance that… you might be connected to her?''
Walden looked at the sleeping woman and shook his head. ''What am I doing? This is crazy!'' He muttered and turned to leave and heard Alison's voice.
''Nanny Granny, is your son handsome?'' Alison muttered in her sleep and chuckled.
Walden turned at once and took a few steps closer. He squatted and looked at Alison's face.
''Jerk! That man threatened me in front of the school. I should have kicked his leg. He is lucky he is handsome.'' She chuckled and squeezed the pillow tightly.
Walden chuckled and shook his head. ''What is she saying?''
''I feel so lonely…'' Alison muttered and tears rolled down her eyes.
Walden hesitated for a while before touching her face. He wiped the tears and sighed. He held the bed and was about to stand up when Alison stretched her hand, pulling him back and he fell on top of her on the bed.
''Don't move, you stupid pillow.'' Alison wrapped her arms around Walden's upper body tightly and muttered.
Walden's face suddenly turned red. This was the first time in so many years that he had come in close contact with a woman. He struggled a few times to remove himself from Alison's grip but she tightened her arms and muttered.
''If you move I will kiss you!''
Walden's body became a little tense. He looked at Alison and struggled to put his hands down.
''Alison, you brought this on yourself!'' Walden said and relaxed on the bed. He turned Alison's body and she hugged him while sleeping.
After watching her for a while, Walden closed his eyes and also slept.

Alison walked out of her room yawning. She saw Lucia and Alonso eating and she asked.
''Hey! Don't you have a house? Why are you here so early? You are even eating before me.''
''OMG, Alison, what happened to your neck?'' Lucia exclaimed and stood up. She went closer and looked at Alison's neck which had a lot of love bits.
''What? What happened to my neck? Did I get a cut?'' Alison asked.
'No. Alison, you have love bits on your neck. What happened to you… oh my God! Don't tell me you have a man in your room?'' Lucia asked and rushed into Alison's room.
''Hey! Which man are you talking about?'' Alison followed Lucia into the room. When she saw herself in the mirror she exclaimed.
''OH My God! Who is this? What the hell happened to me?''
''I could ask you the same thing, little Miss. What the hell happened to you?'' Lucia asked.
''I… I don't know…'' Alison looked at her neck and frowned. ''Which hooligan did this to me? Lucia, did a man come here late at night to do something to me? My bed…'' Alison pulled out the bedspread and looked at it. ''There is no blood. I didn't lose my virginity… then… what the hell happened to me?''
Flashes of images came to Alison's mind and she screamed. ''Ahh!''
''What? Do you remember anything?'' Lucia asked.
'Lucia, he… he kissed me. he hugged me and kissed me.'' Alison's face turned red.
'Oh… Alison, your face… you look like you enjoyed it.''
'Lucia, have I gone crazy? What is wrong with me?'' Alison asked.
'Hey, relax. Sit down and let's try to figure this out together.'' Lucian sat down on the bed with Alison.
'A spirit didn't come to sleep with me, right? That would be so creepy. No, I should go to church.'
'Alison, listen to me. Relax. Breath in. Breath out.''
Alison followed Lucia's instructions and breathed in and out. She calmed down and looked at Lucia.
'Okay, can you describe how this man is and what exactly he did to you?''
'Mm! He… he came into the room and… and I don't know, it felt like a dream. I hugged him first and pulled him on the bed. The last thing I heard was, 'Alison, you brought this upon yourself!' that's what he said before kissing me.''
'So… what did you do? Did you kiss him back?''
'I… I think so…'' Alison revealed a confused expression.
Lucia looked at Alison carefully with a complicated gaze.
'Lucia, am I… am being possessed?'' Alison asked and touched Lucia's hands.
'Alison, don't worry too much. You trust me, right?''
'Mm, I do!''
'Then, leave this to me. I will handle this. Meanwhile, you have work to go to so… we need to find a way to cover this up.''
'I am not going to the company today. I will just be going upstairs to clean the penthouse today.''
'Really?''
'Mm!''
'Then, in case you are going out, just wear something that will cover your neck.''
'Oh.''
'Wash up and come and eat.'' Lucia said and stood up from the bed.
'Did Walden come here last night?'' Lucia asked Alonso as soon as she returned to the hall. She sat on her chair and looked at the boy.
'Mm! He left this morning.'' Alonso replied.
'You saw him?''
'Yes. He left a few minutes earlier before you came.''
'I see, eat your food.''
'It's everything alright with Alison?''
'Do you think she is alright? He took advantage of her without her consent. What the hell is Walden even thinking? Is he going to kill her or marry her?''
'Celestial beings like Lord Walden only mate with one woman in their lifetime. Alison is not Lady Kaada. They are different people. What if he takes her as Lady Kaada? Won't that be disservice to Alison?'' Alonso asked.
''That's why I am worried. Walden hasn't being with a woman in the past 500 years since Kaada died. I am afraid that he will be seeing Kaada in Alison. That will not be good for both of them. It won't end well.'' Lucia sighed.
''Alison is a genuine person. She is kind and beautiful. I don't want her to get hurt.''
''You seem to like Alison?''
''I like her. She is the first human to not treat me differently.''
''That's because she doesn't know who you are.''
''But she knows about you, right?''
''Even though she has never asked, I know she does. That's why I trust her. She is a loyal one.'' Lucia said and smiled.
