Chapter 389: They knew each other
"He knew," Elliana whispered.
"At that time I didn’t know he was a royal prince. He didn’t know I was the illegitimate princess of the human kingdom either. That day, when we talked on the phone for the first time when we were on that trip, it was the first time he heard my voice after I returned. And then he connected dots and understood I was the same girl," Elliana whispered.
"We used to meet in the abandoned forests between the human and vampire kingdoms. We didn’t share anything personal. Just stay there, enjoy each other’s company until I was thrown into that prison out of the blue," Elliana said, closing her eyes, ready for his wrath.
However, it never came. She opened her eyes and looked into his eyes, his eyes that were brewing a storm.
"Okay," Sebastian said and Elliana felt sad.
She knew he wasn’t okay. The only reason he wasn’t saying anything was probably because he didn’t want to hurt her, and the thought alone made her feel guilty.
She stood from her place and cupped his cheeks.
"I didn’t mean to hide it from you, Mr. Marino. There was nothing like hiding it. I was just not sure if you would like the fact that I risk my life by racing like that.
However, it was something that I needed to get over my sadness. That’s the only way I have ever known," Elliana looked into his eyes sincerely.
