Return Of The Vengeful Heiress

"Have you ever lied to me crown prince?" A woman with soft brown waves spread on the grassy field asked. She was staring at the peaceful moonlit sky, enjoying the calm company of the man beside her. If she turned her head to look into his eyes, she would have noticed a momentary flicker in his eyes. "You think I would?" The slender man, caressed her head gently as his husky voice fell into her ears, filling her face with a gentle smile. She raised her hand to touch his defined jawline. Under the Petalwood both of them exchanged a loving look between each other. --------------------------------- "You hate me." He wasn't asking. He stated facing the woman he just couldn't stop loving. He felt helpless as the icicle turned sharper and sharper before finally piercing through his heart. Yet he was unwilling. Unwilling to hurt her. And at this point he couldn't defend himself without hurting her. Her eyes that had always gazed back at him with nothing but indifference and hatred, made him feel clueless. "They say eyes never lie. They must have never seen yours." She spoke coldly, a mocking smile lacing her lips, as she pushed the icicle further with her ice essence. Author's Note - Cover made by AI

"Would things have turned out to be different if I hadn't chosen to join the academy?" 

He looked at her pretending to be nonchalant.

Taking her hand in his, he spoke gently, "Not necessarily. They would have still found the clues of your unique composition sooner or later. Worse yet you won't even be skilled enough to protect yourself had you not joined the academy."

After a slight pause, Lanying turned towards him, "So regardless of whatever choice I made, I would still have to go through all this. How pathetic." 

Her self deprecating smile seemed to pierce through his heart. 

At times, words were merely not enough to comfort one. He placed his hand on the small of her back, fixing the bed pillow with another hand he gestured at her to lie down. 

As she did, with a flicker of his hand, he dimmed the lights down. She closed her eyes as he gently covered her eyes with his palm.
