RAYNE

As the class started, I couldn't get over the fact that I lost my control. Thoughts that I might make her very uncomfortable linger in the back of my head. I steal a glance over her, but she seems very uneased by my presence. I couldn't help but hiss over myself as I waited for the class to end.

"Class dismissed." As the professor said those two words. The other students get into their feet to proceed to their next class, so as [name] hurriedly gets all of her things. "Uh, see you later." She uttered, not looking at me, which made me hold her wrist, halting her from walking away.

Her eyes finally met mine, as I could clearly see her overly flush cheeks. She's breathtakingly beautiful. "I apologize for my actions, [name]." I sincerely apologize, but I don't regret any of it. I just truly want this woman.

"It's alright." She tried to voice out firmly, but the shyness is overwhelming her, which made me tilt my head and tease her. Her eyes rolled and stomp her feet, causing me to chuckle since it's the sign that she had enough of my playfulness.

"I have to go to my next class now." She informed me, which I acknowledged with a nod. "Let's go." I said that confuses her.

"We don't have the same class in this period." She reminded me, causing me to nod. "Yes, but I have to get the youngest Biblia for questioning." I informed her. Her once-happy face washed over quickly with anxiety and fear.

I reached for her arm and gently pulled her towards me. "Do not be afraid. We're together with this." Sincerity filled my voice as she eventually smiled and reached my hand as we walked outside the classroom to her next class, which she had the same as the girl I needed to interrogate.

As we reached the front door of the classroom, [name] was hesitant upon entering, but I guided her. A girl quickly gets up from her seat after seeing me. Her eyes flicker at the sight of me, but a lingering dark gaze is in the back of her hidden facade.

"Divine visionary, Rayne. What can I help you with?" The professor inquires, which made me turn to him and offer a respectful bow before guiding [name] to an unoccupied seat. "I am here to ask for Saphira Biblia for questioning." I spoke, which the professor quickly acknowledged as he called the woman I have to question about the ongoing conflict.

I could see her excitement and eagerness to be with me as she hurriedly got beside me and attempted to cling to my arm, which made me quickly move aside and have her walk towards the exit as I followed behind. I could see the embarrassment drawn in her face as she started walking.

Before I totally step out of the room, my iris catch a glimpse of [name]'s figure as she refuses to see me.

She still thinks that I'll be giving myself to this woman just because I was declared to be her fiancée?

"Rayne, where are we going?" This woman asks as we are now heading to the interrogation room. I didn't respond and continued walking, leading her to the room where I'm going to confine her alone with me. It's awful that I'll be stuck alone with this woman, thinking about how [name] will feel, but I have to do this to proceed to the next step.

Upon reaching our destination, I opened the door and instructed her to get inside, which she happily did. As the door closed, I quickly proceeded on pressing questions against her.

"Where were you during the event yesterday afternoon?" I quickly asked, which shrouded her with confusion as she scoffed and leaned her back against the chair as I remained standing opposite to her. "What's this? Cleaning the mess of that woman?" She asked sarcastically, which made me inhale sharply as I tried to calm myself.

"Didn't you see how she quickly turned that old man into dust? So horrifying." She overreacted as I remembered that scene, making me gulp upon remembering that smirk molded in her lips. "That old man is not one of the Easton's faculty members. It steals someone's identity, and right now, the person who used the same name as that impostor is under investigation."

"Oh." She nonchalantly responded, as she acted really unbothered by the event. "The other night I was sent to a mission, and [name] spotted a shadow that was eyeing her. Could you be that person?" I inquired upon remembering that incident.

"No!" She uttered and rolled her eyes. "Me and Sophina are home for dinner." She alibied. I couldn't get proper answers from her, but I couldn't ignore the lingering feelings that she had to do something with these since she already has stated a threat.

"Wake up, Rayne. Many people have the desire to kill her since she destroyed plenty of lives of innocent people. It's not only me." She uttered without hesitation, which made me clench my fist.

"That's why I dropped the idea of getting rid of her since someone is already doing the job. All I have to do is get you for myself." She continued with a smile as she met my eyes.

"Tell me what you know." I asked firmly, hiding the anger that tries to resurface the calm facade I have. "I don't know anything, Rayne." She answered in a finalizing voice as she got up from where she was seated and walked towards the door to leave.

"If I were you, get married with me. So you and your little brother will live peacefully. That woman you chose to be with will put you in danger just like what happened before." She mumbled before leaving the interrogation room, having me standing alone in the almost dark chamber. Words sinking deeply within my core as I tried to think so hard because of the difficulty of the situation.

That woman seemed to know something, that's for sure, but what she said—that most of the people desire to kill [name] because of the rampant of her own magic—is true. Nothing will change the fact that it was her own power indeed.
