Eve was on the balcony in her room. From here, she could peacefully watch the beautiful night dawning upon her sight. The backyard of this house was a forest and it was only now that she discovered it. Thus, when the wind blew, it was colder than she expected. She was even wearing just a thin piece of silk nightgown that Lucas had chosen for her this morning. Shivering a little, she gasped when she was encircled by a warm pair of arms.

And her mom still wasn’t depressed. She didn’t know how, why, and when did everything start crumbling down. All she remembered was that certain night. It was raining and thundering loud. Her mother lays on the floor, pills scared along around her. She was catching her breath and was pleading with her to come and get her father. But her dad was not home.

It wasn’t hard to determine what Lucas was feeling right now. For with just the dark and heavy aura he was emitting, it was already enough for Simon to feel nervous.
