Entwined With the Villainous Guardian

Lionel gulped. The content of the letter was so unbelievable. But at the same time, it answered a lot of questions he had in mind.

He read the rest of the letter. It said that "Leona" would leave the letter in the cave and made it as water-proof as he can. And the last part was heartbreaking to read.

{I don’t know who I am or who my father is. I don’t know why my mother lied. I love her, but she treated you wrong. And now I learn that she lied. Why did she do that? Why on such an important thing? Why did she make me believe that I am a girl when I am a boy? I hate her.

I have no grip on anything. But I know one thing, Melanie. I know I have you, my Angel, my love. As I told you earlier, I’m going to reach out to you, Melanie. I’m going to crown you with flowers that won’t wither and you’ll be mine forever.

Will you come to me? Will you be mine forever?

Please don’t forget me. Please don’t refuse my hand.

Then I will have to force you. I would hate to do that. But you are all I have, Melanie. I will burn down the world for you. I love you so much. I love you more than I can express.

So, please come to me, my darling Angel...

With passionate love,

Your Michael. }

Lionel folded the letter back. Those are strong words from a twelve-year-old. But that boy was truly hurt as the world around him burned and he was confused.

"Shocking, isn’t it?" Leander asked.
