I can feel every drop of rain on me. I was soaking wet and I could feel the cold especially when the strong wind blew. However, I did not budge and remained kneeling in front of the large gate of the palace. I need to meet the king ... I have to meet the crown prince ... My father, General Knoxx, was accused of a crime he did not commit and he is currently in prison while awaiting the day of his execution and yet, I can't do anything. I had no choice but to kneel and feel sorry for them. I was suddenly startled when lightning struck in front of me followed by a loud thunder. And there I saw, where the lightning struck stood a familiar man. “L-luke” I called him, my throat was already sore because I hadn’t been drinking water for two days and remained kneeling in front of the palace. "Stop it already, there's nothing you can do" Luke said without emotion. I'm used to his emotionless face but somehow, it hurts me so damn much to see that he doesn't care while I'm going through all this. He didn't even tried to help me. "Please, save my father" I begged him but he didn't speak and just stared at me. Is this really the luke I met? Luke has been my friend since I was a child. Is he always this heartless? "Go away" Luke replied sparingly. We were a pair made for each other. But now that my father has been accused and my last name Knoxx has been tarnished, I am no longer worthy to marry Luke so it is no wonder that Luke is going to cut off our engagement. But even so, I hoped, I hoped that somehow I had a place in Luke’s heart. That even though we just reconciled our engagement he also feels for me as much as I feel for him. I guess i was wrong. For him, I was just a tool for him to use. And now that I have nothing to use, he will just throw me away. "Is this the end of us?" My lips were trembling but I didn't know if it was because of the cold I was feeling or because of the intense pain that was building up in my heart. "There is no 'us', Alissa" I almost heard my heart shattered. Everything is just an illusion. "Go back, you're just wasting your strength kneeling there" I didn't say a word and just stared at him. Maybe we stared at each other for a few minutes until another lightning struck Luke's stand and along with the loud thunder he also suddenly disappeared. I used to be amazed everytime he did that lightning teleportation. But now, I am no longer happy. I hate it. I hate him ... Slowly my eyes closed as I felt it get heavier and heavier. My whole body was covered in cold and I felt like I was about to give up. My vision was blurred and I felt like I was spinning around. Then everything went black. Tears slowly trickled down my eyes " Luke interrupts as I say. I was no longer surprised, I saw it coming. Luke and I have been enggaged since the day we were born because of our noble identity. I was the daughter of the great general Alen Knoxx, while Luke is the eldest son of the king and the crown prince of this nation.
