There is a thin line between love and hate, who knew when it started to fade between us. Earl of Gravestone is the most dangerous man of the WhiteThrone Empire. Not because he is strong enough to kill them without thinking twice. But he deals in secrets. Secrets that could destroy the peace standing on the thin ice sheets over a flooding river. But he had not gotten all this wrapped up as a gift by his family. He had earned it. Earned to show that one woman that he was worth choosing. To show that he was strong and loved. and he definitely had forgotten her after she left him for another man. Except that… he did not. He was still clutched by her memories to the limit that it hurt him when he breathed. So what would happen if the newest secret he found was…. Her husband was a traitor. If he wants, he could break her life. But would he? The deepening shadow of the crimes he had committed and the darkness within him wanted to devour her. But a tiny part that still remembered her love wanted to save her at the same time. Who would win in the end?

Elara could feel the sneering look of the maids and other staff. They all looked at her as if she was a pathetic crawling dog that did not even deserve pity.

"Ha! I would have embraced death if I would have been at her place. What kind of a woman she is!" someone spoke as she turned to her right. 

"Yes, it would be better to give up than living a life like this." replied the other, bringing a wry smile on Elara's face.

Giving life, it would be so easy for her. Since when had Elara chosen a simple path in her life. She would continue to bear the pain until she could not do it anymore.

Her heart felt heavier as she returned to Alric's room. She didn't have any room. But she lived with him in his room. So far he had only treated her warmly but she still could not trust his intentions.

A maid was waiting for her there. 

"Shall I get you ready for the night already?" no address, no salutation or words that show her value.
