Lucian was standing at the window in the reading room, staring at the moon shining in its dim light. His body is here, but his mind and heart are elsewhere. "Violet ... I miss you so much ..." he said in his mind. He closed his eyes as he held back his sadness and his longing for her.

Lucian had not seen Violet since he left her palace. Selina didn't give him the chance to see her. She made him stay in their uncle's castle under the pretext of taking care of him. She ordered her maids to spy on his every move, so he couldn't go nowhere. She made him like a mouse in a cage with a possessive cat.

Lucian opened his eyes and looked at the door of the room as it opened. He sighed helplessly as he watched the possessive cat walk in and stand before him. Selina's eyes gripped Lucian's. "It's late now. Why are you still in here?" she pretended to ask. She already knew the reason why he was still here.

They will bring you both to me."Violet's heart raced. She smiled with a startle, happiness and relief on her face. She moved her eye
