Ariel was surprised, love. She never suspected it to be that deep. To her, she thought she was a quiet obsession he has at the moment.
Kaiden disappeared for close to a week; she didn't catch a glimpse of him during that period. Ariel stayed in her room replaying the moment over and over again. Her heart ached when she remembered the look in his eyes.
She asked herself the question, Did she love him?
During this period, Kaiden was missing, and Ariel received several letters from his mother, all of which said the same thing, emphasising the importance of this marriage to Kaiden. She begged over and over again for Ariel to make sense to him.
Annette tried speaking to Kaiden, but he was too stubborn. Kaiden hoped to kill his brother; unfortunately for him, the other prince was not easy to get rid of, nor was Kaiden himself. That's why they were the last ones alive.
