If you don't know how to live-
Why wonder about death.

A month after...

The fifteen rogues we found at the boundary are now safe. After a week of staying at hospital treating their wounds, Lady Celeste decided to keep them.

They provided all they need like, house, food, clothes and work to earn money. The kids were also enrolled on school to study.

They were treated equally here, and they were so thankful for letting them to be part of the community. They also promised there loyalty and honesty towards Lady Celeste.

And about Katy's Mate topic are still making noise here in the house. They can't still get over knowing that he was so young compare to her age. If they can't believe it, how about her.

It's a big surprise for her, like it turn her world 360 degrees. She's been waiting for him for more than two century. She even told me that she already lose her hope finding the man who destined for her, but look on how fate bring them with each other.

I admire her strenuous waiting for him and for having a strong faith that he will come even there is no assurance.

We are so happy for them because they really deserved each other. Mostly Katy, she's so kind and she contributed a lot on other people's sake and I think it was the right time for her to be happy for her own.

On there whole team, only four of them had luckily found their own mate. They are Trone, Edward, Zed and addition to there team is Katy. The remaining are still waiting for the person who destiny for them, their other half.

We don't know what is the plan of Moon Goddess for them. No matter what it is, I'm sure they will learn how to accept who ever that person is. I've seen how they value their other half, and it was amazing.

Me. I'm not sure if I'll be given a chance to meet him, but I'm willing to wait even it takes a thousand years. But what really bothers me is, if I really have a mate.

Fate are so cruel for me.

And it make me really sick knowing that this is what I am. I'm not free to show myself and I know that no one will accept me. No one will love me. But I'm holding tight into one reason.... Mate.

Whether if I have or not, I don't have a choice but to accept it. That's my fate and I can do anything against it. Maybe... just maybe, I was really born to be alone.

I walked inside my dimmed room. The four side of it are surrounded by thick and black curtain's, not letting any light to enter beside I'm comfortable with it.

I let my body fell from the soft mattress of my bed while thinking about my plan. My revenge plan for my family. And I feel like it's my reason why I'm alive. I'm alive? I chuckled about it.

I don't even know if I'm alive. I'm breathing but my heart wasn't beating. I better stop thinking about it. It wasn't important anymore. I have plans and that's my priority.

My own hands moves on its own. I touch the soft skin of the emerald stone located on my neck. I felt the letters which perfectly engraved from this green stone.

It's my name. Selena. My Mom specially made it for me. A smile appear on my lips. She's really the best. I remembered her baking some cookies for me every afternoon. Washing my hair and braided it into perfect fishtail using a red ribbon.
