Chapter 32: Estrella
"His Majesty believed you would live happily once you succeeded in your plans and ended his life. He thought you would live your life with King Icarus. So he thought it was probably for the best since he could also atone to his friend for stealing you from him. But in the end, you just killed yourself? What did milord suffer and die for?"
’Stealing? What does he mean?’
But she had no time to worry about those.
Alwin released blue fire in his hands as he glared at Arabella’s corpse. He looked like he was ready to set it aflame until it returned to nothingness.
"Why did His Majesty have to fall for a lady like you? Why did you have to be his mate when your heart would never belong to him anyway?"
Alwin was trembling with so much emotion and the tears in his eyes overflowed ceaselessly.
’I, I loved him once,’ she wanted to say. But that would in no way console Alwin.
Arabella could see just how much Alwin treasured his lord. She had heard before, Alwin had no family. He was all alone.
Perhaps, to Alwin, Ferdinand was his family. The only one he belonged to. And now, Ferdinand was gone because of her.
But instead of burning Arabella’s body, Alwin kneeled in front of Ferdinand’s corpse and controlled his raging emotions.
He could not hurt even Arabella’s corpse because Ferdinand treasured her.
