to me with a very concerned yelped look on his face

“How did you manage to leave the house without them

kuning

w e you when he asks with new intens.

“am…I lied.” Iconleu. ‘1 told them that was going to a friend’s house.”

“A friend’s house?” he questions. Which friend?”

I’m surprised that he even wants to know this small detail. Why should it matter which friend!

He’s standing doser to me now as he waits for me to

“Abigail…” I want to t#1 him mare; I want to say to him that she’s the only friend that I have now and

that the two people closest to me betrayed me. But I don’t need to say these things everyone in school

already knows, and even he asked me if i still loved Bryan. He already knows, i know this;

but I still want to tell him more. I want to open up to him,

and I want to hear his responses. I’m slightly crazy; I know

that, and he may already know this as well.

He steps back after hearing my response. Til have the

guard see you out after you get changed. Goodbye, Amiera.”

I don’t have a chance to protest before he bolts out of

the room. It seems as though he’s trying his best to get me to leave. I’m suddenly reminded of the last

time he did this to

leve. I’m suddenly reminded of the last time he did ihis to

1. me. The time I liked his client without hiki pemikian.

Today he was trying to get away from me once mori.

Why did he keep doing this? Why did he

I spin the dar in my hand over and over again. I’d finally found her; after years of searching, she was

finally

within my grasp

But I don’t feel the sense of accomplishment was

haping to feel. My emotions manage to surprise me even

more than she does.

Why did I feel the need to protect her today? My primary

mission was to guide her towards the candle; it was a simple

test: The burning sensation would have stopped on its own

even without my interference, it would have taken a long

time, but it still would have stopped.

So then why did I rush to help her?

Every time I close my eyes, I hear her screams; I’ve

listened to cries before, but none has ever managed to flip

my insides as hers did.

“Fuck” i slam the knife down onto the wooden table

and mumble some more as I get up.

I thought that I was more prepared for her arrival than

her presence?

“I’m not.” I’m afraid I have to disagree with her. “What brings you here?

She crosses her arms over her chest and frowns at me.

“When do lever need a reason to visit you?”

I shrug my shoulders. “It’s just late that’s all.”

“So, did you get any closer to the girl that you suspect?

Is she the flaming whisperer?”

I should have known that Lizzie would be restless the

moment she learned that I suspected someone.

I’m surprised that I didn’t even have to think twice

about lying to her

“No?” she asks.

“No.” i cantum

So tell me then, Adam, what was that girl doing here

Her question throws off–guard. How did she know that invited Amirahie tonight?

“What are you talking about?’ lask waiting for the confirmation that she was indeed speaking about

Amiera.

“Brenda sent me this picture of the two of you during movie night. How wsi not even invited?”

****g Brenda. Of course, it had to be that irritating

woman.

“T’m just trying to screw with Bryan. That’s all. I’m doine

it as a favor to Ashton, nothing else.”

i know she won’t believe the lie, but it was still better

than telling her what happened today,

I couldn’t let anyone find out about Amiera, not now.

I would reveal the truth when the time was right.

“I don’t mean to pry.” Abigail says the moment I step

into the vehicle. “But what’s up with your hair, and where is

the outfit you went in there with? Did rain manage to fall

inside the house? is it as spooky in there as everyone says?”

I wake mynd, “it’s slot nicer than expected. The

rumars are all lies. And my hair i staking we because of

HEIL incident. Els a long story.”

We have the whole night before your driver came for

vau in the morning. I mean, is sleep that important?

What will Abigail think of me after tell her the Aria

would judge me, call me crazy, along with other words. But Abigail was nothing like Aria.

“I don’t know where to start. Everything was fine until he walked me to the library.”

“I thought you went there to watch a movie?” she asks.

“Why were you in the library?”

I sigh, “it was a herror movie, and I hate those kind. So

Adam noticed and walked with me to the library. Their

library is beautiful, by the way. It’s enormous, and there are

many statues amongst other cool things. One of them

happened to be a gold candle. I’ve never seen anything like it

before. But when I touched it, something strange happened. My body felt like it was on fire. My entire

body, not just the

part I touched it with. Adam saw that I was in discomfort.

and he carried me to his shower. And he soaked me from

head to toe… To help with the pain.”

Abigail stops the car immediately and turns to me with

“So let me get this straight, you were not only in Adam’s

room but also in his shower?”

her home, and I’m gratatul for that. I didn’t wait to talk

about it anymore. I was tired and needed it. Even though

the pain was one, the memory of it was still there. What if

that had happened when Adam was not around? Who would

have helped me?

And was it even the candle that caused that reaction?

Would it happen again?

There were so many questions that I wished I had the

The next day, the driver balready waiting for me when i wake up. Il say a quick goodbye to Abigail and

I can’t stop the feeling of guilt from lying to my parents. I’m so scared that they somehow found out the

truth of where I was last night. Still, I put on a brave face and walked inta the palace

“What happened to your clothes, Amiera?” My mother adiks me, she lacks highly suspicious, and I

can’t blame her. It

wasn’t like I went to a pool party…More like a shower party

inside Adam’s bathroom. She also doesn’t know that i

changed outfits three times after i left the hou.

Oh lord, can’t forget about that incident?

You can never forget about that; you know that it’s

something that would scar you for the rest of your life.

Adam’s touch was everything a woman would want from a

man. He was everything a woman would wish for, il now

why women threw themselves at him like that. If I’mni honest,

Talways knew why women warted him; I didn’t need last

night to show that to me

child, and i feel like you’re lying to me about something.”

Taigh, mother, you have nothing to worry about. Abigail is a sweetheart; so far, she is nothing like

Bryan and Aria. They are the ones you should be worried about me spending time with. Those two

almost destroyed my life. I

trusted them with all my heart; I gave them both my trust,

and they broke it without a care in the world about my

feelings. I understand that you have a duty towards your

kingdom, but sometimes I wish you could be a mother to me

for once. For once, can’t you think about my leelings and

not that of the kingdom?”

Her eyes look both surprised and sad at my question. I didn’t want everto ask my mother to choose

between me and our kingdom. I understood how being a royal meant that

my life would be different from any ordinary person’s.

I’ve just been having a crazy month; things were

happening that I never thought it would have ever happened

to me. First I lost both my best friend and boyfriend. Then I

Something to do with it.

And how is it possible that Adam has the power to heal my pain? That should not be passible;lve never heard of anything like that before.

There is also the way that Adam looked at me before left. It was almost as though he was looking at a

diferent person. I feel as though he knew something that I didn’t.

But that was insane. What could he know about me that

even I didn’t know?

“Go to your room and get some rest,” my mother

whispers. “We will continue this conversation another time.”

I nad and walk away with all of these questions still on

my mind. I drop myself onto the bed the moment that

enter my room. My cheeks are burning with the memory of

Adam’s hands sliding down my body. I’ve had moments with Bryan, but nothing ever felt like that

before. I have no idea

why it has to be Adam to both set me on fire and cool me

down all at the same time.

I want to ask him so many questions, but I’m scared. He

I want to ask him so many questions, but I‘m scared. He

turned me down earlier when I tried asking just one

question. Maybe I saw things that were not even there. It‘s

possible; I tend to overthink things.

Maybe there is nothing to worry about. Only time will

tell.
