1 Prologue

"Long time no see Lily!" said Axel while pointing his sword straight at Liliana

"Indeed, it has been such a long time since we have met each other, why don't we sip some tea and talk about our experience."said Liliana

"It's no time to joke around, Lily grab your sword and fight with me! It's either you or I will perish today, we can't live under the same roof."said Axel with a cold face and cool tone

"Axel, I am not willing to fight against you, even if I have to perish today under your sword I am willing to end my life by your hands, so I'm fully prepared, I am ready you can kill me whenever you want, I promise, I won't struggle under your hands"said Liliana with a helpless face and tone

Axel looked at her with wide eyes, he looked at her stubborn eyes and knew that what she said she will accomplish no matter what, he began to have a bad inclination, then Liliana walked towards him, she held his sharp blade of the sword in her hands and began to pull it near her heart.

Axel immediately pulled away the sword from Liliana's hand, he saw those delicate hands being covered in blood, he felt like his heart was being ripped apart, it was so painful for him to see her in this condition.

"Lily! Have you lost your mind? Why are you doing this to yourself! I know that you have already surpassed me, so why won't you fight against me and kill me!"said Axel with a look of frustration

"Then why won't you kill me?"replied Liliana

The noise in the background was full of swords clashing, spears piercing, arrows falling and explosion happening, the atmosphere was full of screams and pains, it was a bloody hell, but only in their area it was tranquil and peaceful as if non of this war was happening around them.

Axel became speechless, he, himself doesn't even know how to explain his heart feelings to Lily.

Should he say that he has feelings for her ages ago?

Should he tell her that if she dies, he will lose the will to keep on living?

Should he tell her the truth? Won't she be disgusted by his ugly feelings for her?

"Answer me Axel! Why haven't you still killed me yet?"asked Liliana with a firm tone

Axel began to tremble, he was imagining Lily's disgusted face if he told her the truth, Lily must consider him as a brother, just a brother and nothing else, won't she find him sickening if she knew all those things he has done behind her back? Won't she become afraid of him? Will he be able to even have a small place in her heart? No I must cover up these feelings I have for her, I must not let her be aware of my true feelings towards her

"Lily, you know that I don't like to take advantage of others, I like it to be fair and square! Especially since I have known you since we were kids. I can't force myself to kill you when you are so unarmed and powerless. I will have a guilty conscience as your brother."replied Axel

Liliana was hurt deep inside when she heard his reply, brother? What brother? We are not even related alright! And what does he mean when he said he does not take advantage of anyone, are you seriously trying to fool me? Does he think that I will buy his crap, it's not even believable, he is the number one person who doesn't suit saying such things. Why must I be sister zone by him.

I have always love him as a lover not a brother, I admire his intelligence and strength. He was also the first person who was actually sincere towards me, he made me feel secure and happy. His foolish smile always bought joy to my heart.

Sister?

Sister?

Sister?

Why? I never wanted to receive this title, I want to have the title of his fiance, bride, wife not his sister, it doesn't even make sense we don't even share blood with each other nor are we relatives! I had no choice but to accept this title because if I didn't I might have lose his love and care towards me. Maybe he will find me troublesome and ignore me, that's why I always address him as brother, but now no way!

Suddenly a sword pierced Liliana's heart, blood was dripping rapidly.

"Hahahahahahhahahahahahha..... Finally, she is dead! I have finally killed her, the crimson flower of the Elevian empire. Good job Axel in distracting her."said Markas with a big grin on his face

"Lily! Don't die! Don't leave me alone, I have been unwilling to kill you because I have always love you since we were kids, please don't leave me! Don't worry I will heal you right away."said Axel while panicking and scared

Axel tried to heal Liliana but his powers were not working on her, she was losing her blood even faster, the whole ground and his body was bathed by Liliana's blood.

Liliana looked at him and smiled, she began to say her last words

"I also love you not as a brother but as a lover and........."said Liliana
