She seriously wished that no one would come up to her and ask her to get ready for the tea party ." Mi'lady will you please , leave your bed and get ready , we are already running late " said Cici in a worn down weary voice, she had spent a good deal of her time since the morning , repeating the same words over and over again but her mistress was still pretending as if she was not able to hear her ."

I loved you , even if you believe that all along I was eyeing , the position of Crown Princess , I didn't . I was never after that position , I was after you " breathed Chelsea creeping forward so that she and Rogue were face to face , this fear she needs to overcome it " You were kind to me , when no one else was your highness and I fell in love with you because of that , do you know that ?"Rogue looked stunned as if he never ever thought about this , Chelsea smiled mockingly .Ofcourse , he didn't with Lady Marie as her mother , it will be a surprise that if anyone thought of her as anything more than just a gold digger ."

I will never give up, Never! " replied a voice in a snake like croon , he was standing a bit farther away from the man in robes, his body completely distorted with nothing left other than black mana that floated around like smoke . He tried to materialize in a human form and for a while he succeded , a man with light blue hair and golden eyes appeared but only for a second , the next minute he doubled over groaning and coughing slowly dissolving in the black mist once again ."

    " Your majesty , be as it may ..the second lady Kaisen is rumoured to be the child of the devil , how can we let this rumour circulate?" demanded Count Clodis , his smarmy eyes flickered with disgust as he took Chelsea's name . In his eyes taking the name of a half blood was as bad as stepping on a pile of cow dung ! That too when the woman was born by a prostitute , to say that woman 's name was a huge blow at his pride ." Count Clodis , pay heed to your words who said that my daughter is a devil's child ? She is born and raised by me !" shouted Lord Kaisen though he had always behaved in a gentlemanly way but when he daughter's life was concerned he could no longer control himself .

    " Chelsea? Chelsea ? can you hear me ?" Rogue shook Chelsea by her shoulders but she seemed as if she couldn't hear him at all . Her body was shaking , and she was writhing in pain , the deadened look her eyes became even more profound as she clutched her neck and screamed ." Chelsea! speak to me ! " he wrapped his arms around her but Chelsea didn't respond , she turned silent all of a sudden , too silent as if she was dead staring at him with no emotions , no light in those dark blue eyes and that scared the shit out of him . His heart twisted in agony and if he wasn't worried about Chelsea so much , he too might have lost his head ." Chelsea ! Come back to me " cupping her face he made her look right in his eyes hoping to see some kind of flicker of recognition, but nothing ."
