OSWIN's POV

If I, the king of Aldous, had not been clear about my purpose before, I knew exactly what he was going to do right now.

I needed to ruin this date.

As the first group of bumper-car riders finished their turn, the blaring music suddenly stopped, though true silence never came since we were still in the bustling park. The line I was standing in finally began to shuffle forward. I watched as a team of employees split into two teams, carefully ensuring each rider's safety. One team guided the previous group of riders toward the exit, while another team stood at the entrance, poised to open the gate and welcome the next eager group.

It seemed luck was on my side today since I happened to be in the last cut for this second group, allowing me to be in the same batch of riders as Elena and Brad. I couldn't help but gloat over how fate was helping me with my plan.

Once I stepped onto the platform, the staff closed the gate and told those behind me to wait for the next round. I coul

    Elena’s PovI sat so rigid, paralyzed by fear to even make the slightest movement. I was afraid to even breathe. Not long after the car started moving, I felt a tickling sensation on the side of my face. Judging from the texture, I guessed it was a few days' growth of beard because what followed those prickling things were the warm lips with bad breath as they grazed my jawline. I cringed and tried to move away, but I was already being squeezed in the middle. There was no space left for me to back away."Don't be scared, pretty face. I'll be gentle with you," said a hoarse voice next to me, followed by a sniff at the crook of my neck. "You're not only having a gorgeous face but a seductive smell as well. I am addicted already. No wonder our peacock prince falls for you despite his high standards."Peacock prince? Isn't this the nickname Oswin gave to Brad? Does this mean... Brad is behind this? I kept the thought to myself and tried to remain calm although I felt a boiling rage within

    Third Person’s PovAfter the failed plan with King Judas, Garry hurriedly but discreetly called in Aiken and other palace guards to give instructions. He was being careful not to catch the interest of Judas’ guards. While Garry was busy with security, Rosalina and Alessa looked at Chester one last time to make sure that he was peacefully asleep before closing the chamber's door and securing it with a double magical seal."Make sure no one was to enter this room," said Garry, looking at Aiken with a serious face. "I repeat. No one. Understand?""Yes, general," Aiken and Garry's two best men answered simultaneously."Good. Princess Rosalina, Alessa, and I are heading to the healer's pavilion. If there is an emergency, go and find us there," said Garry, directing at Aiken."Understand, general."The walk to the destination was in complete silence, way quieter than the night itself. At least, nature had the sound of cricket and breeze as a melody. In contrast, the team of three uttered not

    Oswin’s PovSince leaving the jewelry shop, I couldn't deny the presence trailing behind Elena and I. That was why I had been on guard the whole time, even though I tried to act as normal as possible on the outside so that Elena wouldn't notice any abnormality. The mall, though not crowded, was still packed with people. To spot one suspicious aura from the sea of people was no different from finding a needle from the haystack.There were fewer people inside the shaved ice shop than in the corridor, giving me hope to expose the lurking shadow. But the suspicious presence disappeared the moment we entered the shop. It seemed like it decided not to come in. This fact made me loosened up slightly but never let down my guard.The date at the dessert shop was fun, if not including the fact that I made a fool of myself with all those fancy names on the menu. Afterward, we resumed our window shopping along the crowded corridor again. Just like before, Elena was dedicated to being the tour gui

    Elena’s PovOn the way to the restroom, I couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over my body. There was also a chill down my spine that usually resulted from having one's back scrutinized.Why am I feeling this way? I asked myself.I gulped and tried to fasten my pace, hoping to reach the restroom faster. The passageway was empty and silent, yet there was a faint sound coming from the bathroom, meaning there were people inside. So, I should be safe once I was in there.The faster I walked, the tighter anxiety gripped me. Every step heightened the unsettling sense that someone was drawing closer behind my back.Should I turn around and look? Or should I ignore this and hurry inside to be safer? I asked myself again.Though the second choice seemed like a better option, my mind chose the first one. My body reacted on its own when the presence came close. I made an abrupt stop and turned around, ready to confront whoever was lurking behind."Oops... sorry, but you stopped all of a sudden.

    Elena’s Pov"Now, what shall we order?" I asked once I finished explaining the fancy names in the menu one by one for Oswin until the last page. I hoped he understood it now and could help me choose. "Anything. You choose," he replied curtly. "What? No, I can't choose. That’s why I’ve been trying to explain everything to you so you could help me choose.” I whined. It seemed my effort just went down the drain. “Why do you even need my help with this?” He asked with a confused expression on his face. “Because I am torn between these three. Help me decide, Oswin." I clasped his forearm and gave it a gentle shake, a wordless request for help.“Fine,” he sighed and glanced at the menu in silence. Then, he pointed to the giant picture in the middle. "Order this one then. It has a combination of those three.""But it is too big. I don't think I can finish them all by myself." I frowned, wondering why I didn’t see it in the first place. Was I blind?"Who says you have to eat it by yourself

    Elena’s PovWhen Oswin and I stepped out of the jewelry shop, he turned to me and asked, "I thought you said this locket was a waste of money. Then why did we end up buying two instead of one?""I decided to turn a blind eye to my money-saving theory and bought you an identical locket. I can't help it. They look good. The design is the same, only the color is different. Your locket is gold, whereas mine is silver," I said, beaming from ear to ear, which was rare because I had never liked spending much money. But today was special. So, I didn’t mind. "So that's the reason? The only reason." He inquired as if he wasn’t convinced of my answer. "Well, I figure we both need it. Besides, many lovers nowadays get matched items to show off their relationship, like matching t-shirts and shoes. As for us, we have these," I took out the locket from inside my shirt and showed it to him."I'm happy to mark you as mine with this necklace. We'll see if anyone dares to approach you anymore." His fac
