SASHA PALACE,

Under the gossipy eyes of maids, Zave took Athena back inside her bedroom tugging a doting smile on his face as if he was pampering a child. Obviously he deliberately put on this show in order to achieve some admiration from the maids who were watching over them hiding from the corners.

After returning to her bedroom, Athena exhaled a long sigh of relief and put down herself over the bed comfortably. Her instinct was still protective against Zave\'s act which had fallen her into awkwardness.

Zave slowly walked over to the side table before picking up a glass of cold water for her personally. Coming back to Athena\'s side, he handed it over to her politely and kept looking at her uneasiness deeply.

Athena drank the water in a gulp before looking up at his way blankly.

What was he waiting for till now?

Zave let out a dry cough and spoke taking back the empty glass from her hand,

" I think that I should return to my home, now. By the way I have another request for you, princess. Would you choose our engagement ring personally tomorrow?"

Athena was a little taken back after hearing out his words and kept pondering in hesitation. She didn\'t wish to visit Zave before marriage but refusing his proposal would be too impolite in other way. After all, he would become her husband soon after.

Wanting to find a way to escape his suggestion, Athena replied reasonably,

" But..Zave..you know that I can\'t step out without my mother\'s opinion. How about you choose it on your own?"

Zave looked down at her timidly but the reluctance behind her eyes couldn\'t be hidden away. Curling his lips into a smug smile, he boasted proudly,

" I have already granted permission from Queen Mother. We can go outside together anytime."

Zave spoke blatantly watching the girl\'s face turning grimace eventually as if she wasn\'t expecting his visit at all. Wanting to shout at that cruel woman\'s face, Athena felt enlarged all over but maintained her calm posture in surface.

Forcing an awkward smile, she replied tugging the strand behind her ear awkwardly,

" Then I have nothing to say. You can come tomorrow morning to pick me up."

Zave smiled contentedly and took a sharp glance of her figure one last time. Retreating two steps backwards, he bowed his head slightly keeping his eyes glued over Athena and replied,

" As you wish. This slave of yours would always listen to your command. "

Athena blinked feeling utmostly scornful under his intense gaze and hummed in response coldly.

Straightening up, Zave curled up his lips into a sly smirk before heading for the doorway as Athena secretly breathed in relief. As the light footsteps drifted further away from her door, Athena finally got up from the bed and rushed over the door to close it off finally.

Holding the door knob that had been locked by her just now, she exhaled a long breath and suddenly felt a vague presence behind her.

Her whole expression sank into the cold water as soon as the familiar body fragrance filled up her nostrils slowly. 

Gulping down, she turned around numbly like a puppet handled by an invisible power here. As soon as her face turned, she spotted those two burning eyes ogling on her ready to swallow her whole.

Athena sutured feeling unknown fear and happiness leaping inside her mind,

" E ... Ethan.. When did you come? Did Siemus go to take you back? I meant that the location of LG has been found yet or not?"

Her questions couldn\'t drive his attention from her face as he kept staring at her face sternly.

The chilling breeze went pass through the room embracing their numb figures that kept staring at each others face blankly. Even though Ethan didn\'t utter a single word so far, Athena could locate the freaking possessiveness behind his burning eyes. His eyes looked like a burning lava ready to burst out anytime as if it was awating for a right moment.

Those weeping silence was making her uncomfortable but not to that extent which she felt beside Zave. Giving out a smug smile, Ethan spoke in a sarcastic tongue,

" What? Did I disrupt your date, Princess Athena?"

Athena furrowed hating the disgust hidden inside his tongue and ignored the subject,

" None of your business. Why did you come?"

Her words none of your business had stabbed deep inside his heart piercing through like a sharp knife. In a moment, a dark shadow confined his face appearing out like an angry devil who had been annoyed for no reason.

Athena\'s words were stuck out in her tongue as she felt like her blood turning frozen as soon as Ethan made his move. Stepping in a beastly way as if he was approaching towards his prey, Ethan kept walking over Athena.

Even though she was a pure blooded vampiress, his slow steps were making her afraid miserably. Wanting to escape away from his grip, Athena started staggering backwards slowly while muttering,

" What.. what..are you doing.. Ethan. Don\'t don\'t you forget that I am getting married.."

She completed her words feeling her back brushing the cold wall as she discovered herself at a corner. The frightening man was only a step away from her glaring at her face like a hungry wolf and replied with a sneer,

" None of my business? "

He repeated her words giving out a sly smirk and watched her drawn eyes blinking abruptly. 

Letting out a cold smile playing on his lips, Ethan sighed softly. A threat flashed on his appearance as he lifted up his palm to tug off his collar slightly under Athena\'s observant gaze.

Keeping his eyes glued on her, he pulled down the clothe from his shoulderline revealing out their mating remark and asked with a teasing tongue,

" Then this shouldn\'t his concern, right?"

Athena\'s mouth agaped looking down at her encreated mark and felt an urge of guilt feeling her up. Looking up at his smirking face, she asked out frustrated over his cold and unreasonable revenge,

" Ethan..I..I know that I have committed a sin. But don\'t use my guilt in order to satisfy your anger. Tell me, what can I do more to compensate you? I have already ordered Siemus to find out the LG for your sake. Tell me, what\'s more compensations had left for me to repay you ?"

Ethan controlled the urge of shutting her lips through a lingering kiss and gritted harder. Wanting to make her as his own, he was ready to battle against the entire fairy clan but this woman here was dating another guy.

Letting out restless sighs, he whispered leaning down on her quivering lips which was shaking in nervousness,

" Are you sure that you can afford it?"

Athena gulped squeezing her eyes shut tightly in case she forgot the grudges between them under his abyssal eyes. She spitted out lowly without thinking about the outcome,

" Anything!"

Ethan quirked feeling satisfied over the impact on her and suddenly leaned closer. Resting his arm beside her head domineeringly, he took a while to inspect her numb body and squeezed two words deeply,

" Marry Me!"

MOONSHINE CASTLE,

After Esme was sent into the prison, the whole castle had turned into a dense silence after a moment of awkwardness. As their king was angered to that extent where he sent his wife into the confinement room, the mere servants all were in extreme fear in case they would infuriate Aaron more.

Hiding inside their own quarter, they didn\'t show up in the down hall or in the courtyard randomly. Even Jasper was too frightened to pacify his lord this time and solemnly hoped that his love for Esme would win his heart this time.

But something unexpected was going to happen without being notified by anyone..

When the night turned more deeper, an elderly woman accompanied by few masculine guards made their way into the prison area tiptoeing lowly.

Inside the dark room, Esme was already having a slumber sleep after this exhausted fight and didn\'t get to know what was approaching on her way.

Middle of the night, the ironic gate of confinement room had been creaked open snapping her out from her deep sleep eventually.

Still lying down over the dusty floor, Esme parted open her eyes gently expecting a familiar figure but her hope was washed away in a second.

Keeping her head high like an honorable lady, Queen Mother spotted her sympathetic figure at a corner and smiled wider. 

Esme lifted up from the ground groggily rubbing her sleepy eyes and stared at her beaming face deeply spitting out,

" Queen Mother!"

Queen Mother gave her an evil smirk before stating a line mysteriously,

" Let\'s start your interrogation in confinement room, Lady Esme. "
