When did all this go wrong?

When i accepted the proposal?

When I just want to live quietly without showing my presence?

Or what?

Dear god of Cyrus whichever it is please return my life full of peace, i beg you!

"Are you done Aeris?"

A deep whispering voice heard next to my ear.

"Yes, i'm done with my praying your grace."

I lower my hand which was previously in a prayer stance.

He stared at me for quite a long time then his hand touch my cheek.

I starled a little but i can managed myself remained calm.

"Aren't you cold?"

"Not at all your grace, Orion gave me this warmer in case i felt cold."

I show him a magic fire stone from Orion.

Suddenly the expression on his face darkened.

Did i do anything wrong again this time?

"Is anything wrong your grace?"

Without another word he walked to my side and suddenly i feel my body float.

"Y..your grace?!"

I was surprised by his action.

"Don't try to resist and hold on to me."

I just keep quiet and follow his order.

Dear god of Cyrus when did all of this go wrong?

"My lady wake up please!"

A maid came to Aeris room and walking to the window.

Srek...

The maid open the curtain and because of the sunlight Aeris started to wake up.

"Finally, good morning my lady."

The maid greet Liana with bowing.

"Good morning An..cough..cough.."

"Oh lord! My lady are you okay?!"

"I'm fine Anne it's just a cold."

"No you're not my lady, here have a warm tea."

Aeris take a warm tea from Anne, Aeris smile a little. Anne is the only person who cares about Aeris so much in this mansion. Her family never even know what Aeris situation. Her father always want everthing to be perfect especially Liana. Her father Deimos Morana the Duke of Morana treat her as a tool to achive what he wants. Her mother Slyvia Morana the duchess of Morana not much worse from her father. She always care about her youngest daughter and the other siblings of Aeris. She never really care about Aeris in the first place even though Aeris is her own blood. Aeris has two brother and two sister. Fortunately the siblings never mean to Aeris, so the relationship between them is fairly good.

Since Aeris know her parents never really love her. Aeris decide to close her heart for her family when she was only 8 years old. It's when Aeris had a high fever that can harm her because the mana in her body raging unstable. And what her parents do? Nothing even they prohibited the other siblings to visit her because they think that Aeris will harm them. Because of that Aeris said to herself from this moment she'd give up for the attention that she always looking from her parents.

The only one that important to her right now is to escape from this hell now that she 18 years old. Where in her country she is already considered an adult.

"Thank you Ann."

Aeris take a cup from Anne her personal maid, that grown up together with her. Anne is the only one that Aeris can trust in this mansion. And then Aeris sit on the couch accros the balcon.

"Do you sleep late again miss?"

"Eum.."

"Hah...i told you many times miss, it's bad for you to stay up late."

Anne start to nagging Aeris, even though she only 2 years apart from Aeris. Sometimes Anne can act like eldery.

"I know that already Ann, it's just... i can't sleep comfortably."

Aeris put down her cup and playing the rim of the cup.

"Is it that weird dream again miss?"

Aeris just nod her head and start to look outside the room. The breeze that came from the outside it feel very refreshing for Aeris.

Lately she's been had this weird dream, that she cried in front of a man dead body. She tried to remember the face of the man but it's useless. When she wake up, she always had a tear fall from her eyes. Because of that dream she never find peaceful in her sleep.

"It's okay miss, what happens in the future i know you can get through of it!"

Anne take Aeris hand to share her warmth and to cheer Aeris.

"Thank you Ann, so shall we begin our busy day?"

"Right away miss!"
