Fallen (1)

The housewarming party has just started at the Saber's Estate. Hundreds of distinguished people and other creatures attended. Laughter and music filled the air as the sun prepared to settle for the night.

But no matter how joyous the atmosphere is outside, inside one of the rooms on the second floor of the estate, Yllana could not feel the festive spirit. Opposite to that, she felt miserable as she watched the kneeling Azimuth declare his master's intentions. Lucien did not refute. He let Azimuth go back with a nod.

"What do you love about me?"

Yllana's sudden question left Lucien tongue-tied. Her eyes shifted from Azimuth to Lucien. "Surely there are reasons why you love…" Something hit behind her eyes. Inside her head, she could feel the sharp pain growing and growing once more, just like the pain yesterday. "It's this pain again…" she murmured as she clenched her fists and look down.
