Remember «Book1»[EinxAaron] (story being edited)

chapter 37

A/N: this chapter might be a little too dramatic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

After another hour or so, Ein was awake they all ate dinner and did their things, Luci and Cyrus still conversing

Ein was left alone again with Zane

This time, Zane asked for his time later after he washes, they could both meet each other in his room Travis was busy talking to Aphmau and Kim while Mellisa was deeply asleep

Aaron and Val were both talking to each other about different 'Topics'

Now on his way to Zane's room, Ein wondered why Zane wanted to talk to him, but since it was just the two of them, he predicted that it would be something important

He sighed and went inside the room, "Zane?" He called, Zane on the balcony flinches and turns around

"Oh... you're here, thanks for coming...enter in, and uhm, please close the door," He said adjusting his posture Ein did just that and closed the door

"So...why'd you wanna talk?" Ein asked, Zane, gulped and looks to the ground Ein thinks he is taking his time so he kept silent

"Well...I do have something important to say..."

"It's about that time, uhm, college? I don't remember which time...but" Ein raised his brow

"I...saw you, getting beaten up by someone, they kept repeating how you failed your uhm... Mission?"

Eins stomach dropped, he had a witness to what happened, but Ein wondered does he know.

"I couldn't move to where I was standing but I heard and saw everything, he said that if you fail once again...you will lend in as a puppet... As a sacrifice? To break Aaron" Zane was trying to stay calm

"And the... Emerald, stuff, I was sure I was controlled" Ein listened carefully

"The potion warned off, and...saw you being held tightly by three people, I think you were unconscious, but they made you drink something, the wolf walker Aph told me was also there, she was beaten up..."

"They said you'd be the perfect one to sacrifice, they didn't care if you die fighting Aaron, but after that... Everything went blank...I didn't know what happened, I thought I was just hearing things, not until I heard Kim and my brother's voice"

"When I was finally free from the potion, I was so confused, and anxiety got to me, I couldn't tell anyone...but I accidentally told it to Travis" He sighed

"Gladly he kept the promise of not telling everyone about it... no one except him knows..."

Ein stared in disbelief, he doesn't know what to say...

"Look...I had theories of you not being the actual enemy, but after That event, I dropped those theories, then you're now here...still alive, still walking...and I just... I just want this secret to be out"
His eyes water and Ein noticed

"I don't want to keep this hidden anymore, I want everyone to know...but I couldn't tell them..."

Ein reached out, making Zane look up to him still small tears on his eyes

"Zane... I never said I was innocent, I still worked for them, I let them do that since I already gave up... I thought Aaron would kill me but he didn't..." Ein wiped away his tears

"It's not your fault, I don't care if the others never thought of me as a saint... I never cared if my sister thought of me as a monster...i did my best to prevent his plans from even working...and it worked... That's the least I could do after what I did"
