"So, he was being nice to you." Harvey gives me a hard look. "But you kept provoking him?"

I place my elbow on the edge of the table. "I was just surprised. He was supposed to be a cruel emperor."

"Yeah, but he sucked the poison out using his mouth." Harvey chuckles when I make a face at him. "That was thoughtful of him."

"It wasn't thoughtful." I pick up the fork and stab the molten chocolate dessert. Two minus one is one. But that emperor tricked me.

Not only that there was an antidote to that poison, but the method of sucking out the poison was crude. The antidote was also quite common. All the soldiers carried it in their pouches.

The person who told me about the antidote was none other than Aloisia.

"He killed you twice and treated you nicely the third time." Harvey smiles at me. "Do you truly not think of him now?"

"He was a fiction

    I pressed my finger on the hickey on my thigh. It was red, swollen, and rather hot. I kept thinking about his lip and the way he held my thigh. I wasn't an inexperienced woman, but it had been a long time since I had done it.Leaning against the wall, I found myself thinking about the most douche man in the universe. My friend, Fanny, always said that all women had an ex whom they wanted to throw in the cage of tigers.If I threw my ex I think that the tigers would get diarrhoea if they eat that disgusting creature.As usual, I was thinking about unimportant things.I was free to move, but I didn't leave the camp. There would be guards outside. It was still dark. The mountains could get cold and dangerous. I touched the back of my head. The wound was really gone.

    I was clutching my stomach and wondering if the emperor wanted me to die from hunger. Maybe he was punishing me for talking back to him. If I had chosen to be his concubine, would he feed me? But then, I wasn't that kind of woman."Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!" My stomach growled again.

    I can see that the light in his eyes is fading. That's what happens when extroverts are stuck indoors."The same as usual." I take a seat on the chair. "Is there anything new?"The TV screen turns black. Kyle grumbles to me, "My girlfriend broke up with me.""Your girlfriend broke up around eight months ago." I frown at him. "She broke up with you before I woke up.""It feels like yesterday." Kyle rests his head on the couch arm. His jade green eyes well up.Unlike me, he has jade green eyes. The colours of my eyes depend upon the light. They are either green or blue, according to the light. I also have golden freckles in my eyes. My father, who is a biology professor, told me that it's a beautiful union of central and sectoral heterochromia."You are admiring yourself in your brain again," Kyle states in an accusatory tone.

    Damn! He could have told me earlier. I go to my room. Feeling lethargic, I put the phone on the table. Talking to my ex who gave me syphilis is not something I wanted to do. I open the window. The sky is bleeding red. There is a thick layer of snow covering the road.Why do I have this familiar ominous feeling that something bad is about to happen?My phone starts ringing.After a moment of contemplation, I pick it up. The person remains quiet for a moment. Sound of breathing is clear. I tilt my head and whisper, "Raymond?""Vina, you are awake.""Why the fuck are you calling me?" And it has been six months since I woke up."I don't know," He answers my unasked question. "I am waiting outside your home. Come to the window."What? I dash to the window. On the other side of the road, I see a tall man with honey blonde hair, blue eyes, and c

    I grab my damn phone and look at the time. I still have ten minutes left before the alarm."Ugh!" I hate waking up to the sound of the alarm, but I hate waking up before the alarm rings more. I won't be able to sleep now. I stretch my body for ten minutes. All the gyms are closed. "What did I dream today?"I can't recall. I always feel like I have dreamt of something important since I woke up. I dislike the feeling that I am forgetting something important.The doctor told me that it wouldn't be strange if I had holes in my memories since I had been in a vegetative state for two years. I had tried various therapy, but it was useless. I couldn't recall it at all. The feeling of not remembering something is pricking my heart. But what can I do?It's best to not try too hard. Since I can't recall it anymore, maybe it's not that important.There's a high chance that I will remember at some random m

    [Interlude]I stop and glance at Harvey. Sitting in his office again, I have a tornado going inside my heart. Sensing that I have paused my narration, he raises his head and meets my eyes. I look away, recalling the moment when Dante had left the room that day.Why do I still feel bad?I am not Dante’s wife. I am not his lover. I am not his woman. I belong to myself. I am self sufficient. I do not deserve men like Dante, Alphonse, or Kaige.But there is still an ache in my chest that won’t go away.So I don’t understand why I still want to cling on to Dante. Is it similar to the time I had clung on Raymond?

    [Dante]However, the tumultuous ache didn’t leave him.Noises seemed to have blurred in the background like a lost ray of light that was trailing down from the sky. Kaige was furiously yelling at Alphonse who was looking at his feet and sighing. Savina shrugged, avoiding his eyes.Dante saw guilt in her eyes. Although she had owed him nothing, she was still feeling guilty. He could read human’s emotions easily, especially when he wanted to focus. Right then, she was in his focus. The ache was annoying in his chest, an evidence that he was indeed in love with the crazy woman.It was better if he said nothing. Dante left the room. He didn’t want Savina to see any strange emotions in his eyes. A

    [Dante]“I didn’t expect this from you, Alphonse,” Kaige spoked before Dante could say a word.Dante rolled his eyes, but he remained quiet. Something was stirring in his heart. Something that felt better after Savina got off Alphonse’s lap. That ‘something’ was both familiar and unfamiliar. He had experienced it once, but it had never stayed with him for long. Was it love? He didn’t bother to cling to the feeling, and he hoped that the strange feeling would leave him. But it was impossible.His curse was slowly lifting. His heart was thawing, and he was feeling. When did he start feeling for this strange woman? To be honest, he could still pretend until the end that he didn’t feel anything for Savina. At the same time, the for

    [Savina]When Dante came into the room, I had an urge to push Alphonse away and beg for mercy.The position was bad.I was sitting on Alphonse’s lap with my arms coiled around his neck. My skirt was lifted, thighs showing, and Alphonse’s one hand was right on it.His lips were close to mine, almost touching. Actually, he was quite stubborn, and it took me a while to seduce him. He was just about to kiss me when Kaige and Dante entered the room.They didn’t even knock. There was no gentlemanly bone inside them. And just why Kaige was looking at me as if he wanted to kill me? I could understand if Dante was offended since I was still his ‘wife’. Kaige

    [DANTE]She was there. Alive. Too alive to his liking.Dante wished that he would have preferred it if she was dead or sitting in the same room with the undeads in the next room. If it was possible, he would love to gouge his eyes out by himself. Maybe the book should reset itself, or maybe he should forget everything.But he knew that forgetting was impossible unless Savina could fail again. Since it wasn’t possible, he let out a heavy sigh.Savina didn’t move. She looked at him with annoyance. Her sharp brows shoot up as if she was challenging him while sitting on Alphonse’s lap. Oh, only if she knew who Alphonse was or what kind of crimes he had committed.Nevertheless, he hated remembering how she had loved him while she couldn’t remember
