The first week being a messenger of Impératrice Luxiel and Empereur Harlio, who's a close friend of my mother, is kinda boring. I'm always in front of a computer, and sometimes in front of paper works, reviewing them all, delivering it all to each representatives and councils of each empire.

It's tiring. I admit it. But, everytime I'll see him. The first stranger who talked to me without asking about me - Hero Devlin Archer. I felt at ease, the tiredness I'll feel will vanished.

I can still remember how disappointed he is when he thought he was wrong about me being Frostine. But, Acel cleared to me what's my role here in their world. To be a messenger of Ziatryle Empire, and to be the unknown lady.

No one must know who I am or else, it's my end. And that's hard. Pretending to be someone not just for your own sake but, for everyone. Once I vanished, no one would remember me and the curse that grandmother Eliaze put on vampire race will never break.

I have to free them first before letting them show who I am. But, how? If as soon as I lift the spell on them, I'll vanished as well.

I'm scared. That's the second time I got scared. I don't want to leave them but, I don't want them see suffers because of false mates. But, once I vanished, would they still remember me?

The royals that becomes my friends as well... would they remember me?

With that thought, it pains me. I never knew pretending would be this tiring, not until I met those royals who never fails to amaze me. The treat me like I'm like I'm one of them even they don't know me that much. They are nice even sometimes Alexilia always test my temper.

And for the first time, I regretted something. I wished, I did the ritual sooner, before I could even meet them. But, if I didn't meet them...I would regret it more. Meeting royals - Devlin, Vious, Alex, Raide, and Amesthy - is the most unforgettable moment of my life. That even I die, they will remain in my heart.

Ako kaya? Mananatili kaya ako sa puso nila sa oras na makalimutan ako ng isip nila?

Napabalik ako sa ulirat nang marinig ang pagsasagutan ng magkapatid na Dashry. Pagkatapos ako sundan-sundan nina Amesthy at Alexilia kung saan ako magpunta, rito ako sa kuwarto ni Alexilia dumiretso sa hindi ko malaman na dahilan.

Habang pinapanood ang dalawa na maglambingan nakaramdam ako ng lungkot at hindi maiwasan na maisip si Jiane.

Dahil doon, unti-unti sumilay ang kulay asul na kristal na lumulutang sa ere at sa paglingon ko kay Alexilia, nakahiga na ito sa kama. Ngumiti ako at marahan na hinaplos ang pisngi niya.

"Sleep tight, Alexilia Dashry," ani ko at naglaho na.

Kinabukasan, wala ako gaanong ginawa, nakatambay lang ako sa isang puno, pinaglalaruan ang asul na apoy na hindi ko alam kung paano gamitin. Isa ito sa mga libangan at minsan pampakalma ko. Napatawag kasi ako sa bahay ng mga konseho at kahit naman malamig ang emosyon ko, abot-langit ang kaba ko.

Kung sa mundo ng tao, ang tawag doon ay napatawag ka ng principal o hindi kaya ng guidance counselor, sino kaya hindi kakabahan?

Nasa gano'n akong posisyon nang dumating sina Alexilia, Zevious at Amesthy. Nawala ang emosyon na kanina ay pinapakita ko. Hindi ako si Hezéllaire ngayon, kun'di si Winter. Malalim akong humugot ng hininga, nawi-wirduhan sa sarili nang aksidente kong narinig ang usapan ng tatlo na hindi kalayuan sa akin.
