As the explosion finished Juri ran away from where she was with Rina in her arms.

"This will distract them for a while, Lady Rina we're going to meet with the others but it will take sometime so please hold on until the dawn."

Rina nodded with teary eyes.' poor girl she's only six but the looks of lees made me somehow remember her highness. Now I think about it they look quite a like. As if they were twins but her highness doesn't have or does she have a brother?'

Lucille opened her eyes, it was still in the mid night she looked at the windows just to see a person she had never seen for a long time.

"Eikhart Ray, what are you doing in imperial palace." Lucille glared at him.
He smirked before he approached her he raised her chin to make her look at him.

her black jewel eyes met his gray-green eyes. "I'm surprised, this is my first time seeing a black color that can shine besides jems."  she looked coldly at him but he didn't mind her.

He chuckled as he let go of her chin. "you really are interesting." he stode up from from bed as he said. "I came here to meet you and tell you something."
lucille raised an eyebrow, she was interested in what he's going to say.

"There's someone trying to get ride of you, they might use his majesty to erase you from this world be careful." lucille frowned.

"And who might it be?" Ray turned around as he said. "I've my doubts but I'm no sure, also why would they harm a someone like you." Lucille titled her head.

"Then how do you know about this matter." Ray smirked. "I've searched about the Duchess more after your request and to my surprise she isn't the mastermind behind what's happening now it's more like she's working under someone who is very sly and evil."

Lucille stode up from her bed, she looked at the sky with empty eyes, she ignored what Ray was saying.'Just why? why everyone wants me dead? I'm just a little girl who wanted to be loved, I just want someone to need me to care for me.

Well that was my dream from long time ago and now there's nothing but ashes.
Using his majesty to kill me, they can't for now especially if they wanted to do it with their own hands unless......'
Lucille's eyes darkened.

"You're thinking so much for a child." lucille turned to just realize that Ray's face is too close to her face."If something bad happened to the imperial family, there's no good will come from it. So you can rely on me as your ally. "

Lucille was looking straight in his eyes as the time passed she felt something strange about his eyes something she never saw before. "Now I think about it, Your eyes are unique, aren't they?" he took a step back by her question.

"Unique? you must mean beautiful, well people always tell me that my eyes looks beautiful as imperial family's eyes."  lucille sighed at his proud words.
"well,anyway thank you for your help. and please find out who is behind this."

He nodded as his body light up. he took her hand and kissed the back of it before saying. "Let's meet again, my princess." once he disappeared lucille smiled. "let's see who is going to get ride of another first."

Once Ray got into his room he met up with his servant Dan. "welcome back master Ray." Ray nodded as he sat in his office. "Did asked her highness about the sacrifice flowers?" Dan asked, Ray shook his head as he answered.
