Love,

How are you?

This winter is little bit colder than usual. I hope you would remember to wear a thicker clothes when you are going outside and put your blanket properly when you sleep.

Cathlea is truly wonderful land. Even when the grass is no longer green and all covered by the snow, it still like a magical place. Despite the long suffering because of the war, Cathlea's people still built up a snowman and decorated their house. They made a small fest and when I walked around the city, almost all of them invited me in and enjoy the fest with them. Cathlea's food is really delicious. You know, there is mushroom soup that I really like. I asked the name if the soup and they told me once. But I kept thinking about you,  how I wonderful it would be if I was here with you, all my  mind was full with that thought and in the end I forget about the soup name.

Your father told me that there were a festival used to be held in Cathlea during the winter and your mother told me how you liked the festival when you were a child. She also told me that you cried for days when the kingdom stopped to held the festival because of the war. I'm so curious about this festival you liked so much. I ended up talk with your parents for hours. I really like to hear all about you from them. Everything else you like and you don't like, I also want to know it all.

I can tell they vaguely know what I have done to you. But all these wonderful people in Cathlea still treat  me with the upmost respect. Eventhough your brothers seems still angry and glaring at me every now and then, it doesn't matter. I deserve it, don't I?   Everyone else are kind and welcoming, even your parent treats me as if I am their own son. Cathlea feels like home and makes me overwhelmed with warm feeling everytime. This is the kingdom and the people that was once I looked down upon, I truly ashamed of myself.

Love, I'm really sorry...

Tomorrow we will be going to the battlefield once again. The war is dragging too long because we didn't expect that the werewolves and the vampire would be this cunning. But I promise, I will bring back a victory for Cathlea. I will protect this kingdom and this people you loved so much. They are something dear to you and I will protect it with my body and soul.

I hope tonight before I come to the battlefield I will be dreaming of you again. I like seeing you smile in my dreams. It can ease this missing feeling I have and help me to hold on a little longer.

I... really... really miss you. This is so hard and it's killing me being so far away from you, then I remember how brave and strong you were when you faced all the hardships, and I know I need to be stronger just so I can be worthy of wonderful person like you. So I can have a right to beg you to be my mate... my only mate.

I love you so much, Love. I keep praying that the time will ease the pain from all the wounds I created upon you, that you will smile and always be happy, ....that you will forgive me someday.

I miss you so bad...

Dayu stared to the letter in his hands with mixed feelings. His finger moved to the part where the ink stopped and noticed that part was slightly crumpled as if it was being gripped tightly. There was also the patch of dried waters along the paper, but Dayu knew it better that the dragon prince would never spilled some water to the letter. He probably just cried so much while writing this letter.
