I shouldn't have left her alone after all.

When I heard that I was called by my higher ups to another town, I somehow feared if something were to happen to her during that time then what shall I do?

I couldn't even ask mother to go back to England because I knew more than anyone that even if I were to beg her to go back, she won't. She's very determined in everything she makes her mind upon and won't give up until and unless the work's done.

Maybe that's why, small part of me didn't want to leave her under the same roof as my mother. But now that I did, I realised it too late.

Leaving her with my mother turned out to be my worst and gravest mistake to ever make.

I went to another town because of some error in the tax ledger and the officers there wanted to confirm it with me, face to face.

It was just a few days work and I would have gone back to the town and finally to my own mansion with her, deciding on our wedding outfits and what so ever.

I still couldn't believe it but I was finally having her all to myself. She didn't even knew that I love her more than I could ever my own family. My entire world revolved around her.

My heart belonged to her.

My little flower.

Just imagine the shock and devastation when I heard from my junior officer that she had run away.

It was as if my entire world shattered and I was the only one living being in the world. No, not even living, a sitting shadow with no life inside his eyes.

My heart stopped working when I took in his words completely. She ran away? Why? She was happy with me, wasn't she?

So why now? When I am so close? So close to keeping us together, forever. No, she can't run away. She has no reason to run away.

I turned myself upside down to match her softness and barely held back my darkness in front of her so as to not scare her more than she already was. I did everything I could to make her fall for me and I was successful too.

I saw it, I saw warmth in her eyes. For me, only for me. I saw the love in her eyes when I were to close up towards her. Sticking our faces together, she didn't pull back like she used to. So what changed?

No, she didn't change. She was probably made to change.

And all of a sudden, my mind started placing together everything together and I immediately knew who's doing was this.

I immediately cancelled all my remaining meetings and exited the military base, I was sitting in and went towards the car that was parked outside the base, and started driving the car towards my town.

Because I was driving in high speed and through shortcuts, I was able to reach the town in exact 30 hours. And during that entire period of time, my mind kept swirling back to things my mind imagined to be the cause of her running away from me. And how I would bring her back to me.

All I was seeing was red yet at the very same moment, for the first time after so long in my life, I wished to cry. Cry out loud, if that could calm down the growing fear and desperation inside my heart right now.

Isha is all I need in this entire world. Yet I thought only she was the one to understand that. But I was wrong, my mother needs to know more clearly that Cedric only has eyes for his little flower and no one else.

As soon as I reached the townhouse, I exited the car, rushing inside only to find every servant look down at ground with fear evident in their posture.
