I was staring at him, he seemed so shocked, it almost seemed funny. I had told him everything about the reason I destroyed everything back then, now I was waiting for him to speak, I was wondering what was he going to say? Would he believe me? Maybe not, maybe he would think that I had some dark secret hidden due to a variety of reasons but the painfull truth was... that I simply chose power over love. I chose to become powerfull and mighty so that one day I could be free, so that I wouldn't have to submit to anyone, Daniel and my emotions were something I HAD to get rid off, I simply had to. If I didn't do that then I would have a weakness, a reason to back down from all the things I did in order to get here. 

- You... you're mad. He said and I looked at him, smilling with satisfaction.

- Perhaps I am, though your opinion hardly matters. I did what you asked. 

- Regina, how can you be so heartless, so... cold...

- Because in this world where everyone struggles for a better life, the fittest wins. And I will be victorious, no matter what, when and who I have to sacrifice in order to win. I will NOT be a failure. I said coldly, as I said these words I almost heard something break into pieces, like a mirror that was crushed. If so then I guess the fragments of humanity that were left in me had to be eliminated. Tonight I was going to meet my fiancee, a rich young male named Simon, my family decided that it was time for me to choose a boyfriend and husband. I didn't refuse, there was no reason for me to refuse, I already knew what my life would be like. I was going to be married to someone rich as it was expected of, had a few kids and maybe a legacy for the next generations to continue. That was all, there wasn't going to be any love or even sympathy, maybe attraction, negative or not that was the only thing I was certain of. Simon Hills was a playboy, a foolish and brainless male but worse than that, he was a pervert and had a lust so unbearably huge that made me wonder if I was going to stay pure until the end. Well, in case he tried anything I could simply sent him to jail for kid abuse, I was seventeen and I was going to make sure that I would be perfect until the end of my days, if not then I could imagine my future even more clearly. And I didn't like it one bit.

- You've changed, you're no longer the girl I knew and loved.

- You never really knew me then. I haven't changed a bit, I am still the same, perhaps a bit more mature but still the same.

- Is your heart also the same? Because I'm starting to think that you actually don't have one.

- I assure you I have one, otherwise I wouldn't be alive though If you're talking about emotions I assure you that there is nothing left for you. I said darkly and left without even say "please excuse me". Well so much for trying to be polite I guess. As I turned around I came face to face with a maid from my home, she looked at the ground and said humbly.

- Lady Regina, your father has requested your presence, it is time for you to meet your fiancee.

- I see, very well. I will take my belonging and come, please wait for a moment. I said and went to my locker, I wuickly took my phone,  my wallet and my favorite silk jacket in the color of sky blue, it matched my eyes since they were the same color, when I locked my locker, I took a deep breath and walked away bracing myself for the worst.
