~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While making my way to the dining room, my mind wanders to the dream. My heart clenched just thinking of the suffocating emotions held within the memory.

I pushed the dream away from my thoughts, it would do no good to think over things that could not be changed. I instead turned my thoughts towards the new information I had gathered from Casper.

The book never mentioned Axel having a fiance, or even her death for that matter. My knowledge of the book and reality are not lining up. I had so many questions; Why was she killed? Who was crazy enough to kill a psychotic mans fiance? How is Fredrick connected to her death? Why does Axel care about her death, wasn't he a cruel man?

I needed information but I knew I had no way to get it if even Casper did not know, I could only ask Axel himself. I needed to make a deal with him, I could ask to be his fiance for a year before I make my escape from all the characters and deal with all of my death flags. As his fiance he will have to secure my safety. I really hated the idea of being that psychotic mans fiance, but he was the best bet I could make even if it was dangerous. I shivered at the thought of what he could do to me if our deal didn't go well.

My thoughts were stopped as I arrived at the dining room. The doors were already open as I made my way in. I quickly made my way to my seat and avoided eye contact as I felt awkward having everyone's attention on me. Luckily my food was already served as I sat down and ate to avoid awkward silence.

If I'm being completely honest, it is weird spending time with people who are technically strangers. All of whom, have trouble with expressing emotions. It is easier with Seth and Father as Seth is naturally good hearted and I know his personality from the book, while Father is just straight forward and blunt but doesn't bear ill will towards me. The one I struggle with most is Ethan as he is straight forward and blunt but holds a grudge against me. He openly shows when he is displeased with me and it is awkward to console him as he has good reason to dislike the original Alina.

The table stayed silent with only the sounds of utensils occasionally clinking against the plates. Man oh man, the tension in the room could be cut with a knife. Ethan displeased about my probation, Seth boring a hole in my skill with his gaze probably worried about my dream, and Father oblivious to it all. I could feel the cold sweat forming on my back, I could only silently cry inside about how all I wanted was a peaceful and simple life.

I could only sigh in relief as I made it to the comforts of my own room.

I made my way over to my desk and pulled out my papers and pen. I lit a match and burned away all of the information I wrote down except for the time line of events that happens in the book.

I took out a new piece of paper and began writing out my thoughts and the information I was sure of. I needed to make a deal with Axel, and to do that I needed to be prepared.

I shiver imagining an angry Axel slicing my throat, though based on his character he might just torture me until I beg for death.

I can only make this deal on the premise that a fiance holds value to his reign. If I become his fiance, I need to convince father to let me be engaged to him without letting him know of my sickness. Right now, before I move forward with my plan I need to worry about ending the engagement between me and Malik.

I put away my papers and stood up to call in Chrysta. Chrysta soon came in without knocking as I had called her.

"Prepare a bath and night clothes, please." Chrysta soon left to quickly carry out my orders.

I soon took a quick bath and got ready, as I wanted to sleep early. I had no desire to stay up late to rack my brains for a plan. I had 6 months to plan, before my first meeting with Axel and the other characters would occur.

I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
