The Worst Regret

Who is she?

Alerone Caderin found himself struggling to answer his aunt's question. He wasn't sure if he should even be answering it.

After all, he still wished to give up on everything and move on rather than giving himself and Elycia a hard time over and over again.

"I don't think you have to know her name, Aunty," he finally said to the Supreme Princess who slightly raised a brow.

"What does that mean?" Selova Vamieres asked, confused and curious at the same time.

Biting his lip, Alerone hesitated again for a while but eventually said, "Because I'm planning to give up on her."

This time, the Supreme Princess who was resting her back on the backrest of the bed, slightly pushed herself up and sat straight, observing her nephew. "Why, Alerone?" She softly asked. "Is something wrong?"

Pressing his fingers together while narrowing his eyes, Alerone muttered, "It doesn't feel right to pressure and hold onto someone who can't accept me."
