Advertisement
A maid knocked on the door, "Excuse my rudeness, his higness the crown prince Allen and Cassis wish to enter."
"Let them in," answered Amina.
Allen came into the room, followed by Cassis who, spared a shy look at Ella, before they both bowed in respect to Amina.
"I am here to ask for her highness Diana to meet up with my third brother in the palace garden where he awaits," asked Allen as he turned his head to her.
Diana spared a look at Amina, who nodded her head to her in favor with a warm smile.
"Thank you, your majesty, i shall take my leave then," she said as she walked out of the room.
"Allen, dear, would you mind leaving Cassis with me for a moment?" asked Amina suddenly.
He was confused but didn't ponder about the matter, bowed his head and left silently.
Cassis was left in the room with Amina and Ella, having a nervous look attached to his face.

Diana was walking slowly in the garden, looking for Cayn with her beautiful eyes, while also sparing the time to enjoy the gorgeous flowers in this place.
Suddenly a black cat appeared next to her.
She ran to him cheerfully, squatted down in front of him, making cute noises trying to get his attention.
At first the cat pulled away, but looking at Diana's shinning eyes full of expectation it approached her.
Diana smiled happily and started cuddling him, whilst still making cute baby noises, until she heard a cough behind her.
She slowly turned to look, finding Cayn watching the scene with a smile.
Diana shied away from his gaze, playing with the cat's paws.
"Shiro," said Cayn.
"Hmm?" hummed Diana in confusion.
"That's his name," he said again.

Diana smiled, "Its a beautiful name, it reminds me of the seventh god, I guess it matches his dark fur."
The cat took a deep look at her, she was confused when she met his deep blue eyes.
She slowly turned to meet Cayn, who nodded his head to her.
She didn't know what to say or do, but simply take of her hands from the cat's fur and stand up anxiously.
Cayn's hand slowly placed on her shoulder, calming her.
"I-is he, the brother you wanted me, to meet?" She asked nervously while still staring at the cat.
"It's nice to finally meet you, big sister-in-law," said the cat.
"Cayn," she turned her back without responding, "I would like to talk to you alone."
Cayn took a moment to look at her who was in a daze. His eyes turned cold as he nodded, waving to the cat to leave.
"Yes, my lord," said Shiro as he left.
She stood there for a moment without saying a world, her eyes twitched at Shiro's sentence.
"I have questions," she said.
"Go ahead," he answered coldly bringing her shivers through her body.
"Who was really the angel that came to my room?"
"An archangel who's duty in my world was being a messenger for us. The only being who can pass through parallel universes even through it takes a big toll on his body. He is also the big brother of the king of angels in this world," he answered.
"The big brother of the strongest of angels, is only a messenger in your world." She took a deep breath, "You said us, who were you referring to."
"The people who ruled the universe."
She finally met Cayn's cold golden eyes, "You said you were human, I am sure you wouldn't lie. So I will ask a different question this time, what were you in your past life?"

"A human." Cayn's voice held pain in this sentence.
Diana's eyes widened. "You," as she held her head in an anxious tone. "You literally ruled the world, stood above the gods, then obviously achieved immortality. Why did you kill yourself? You achieved the peace u wished for, why did you end yourself? Cayn," as she walked towards him, her eyes begging for answers.
"Diana," he spoke when she stood close to him, he looked at her heartbroken eyes, "What do you think it took for a human like me to reach such a seat. I did what I had to do, I was a ruler because that's what I had to become. I had to, to protect my people. Do you think it made a difference whether I ruled humans or higher beings? When I took that throne I never called myself a god, or an emperor. I put heavenly rules and regulations on top of everyone." Whenever the word I escaped his mouth Cayn's voice raged as his eyes grew mad, his neck veins appeared as he screamed. "I WAS THE ORDER THE WORLD NEEDED!" The scars on his body started appearing again, bleeding uncomfortably as he got furious. "I CREATED THE WORLD EVERYONE WISHED FOR! I... dedicated my whole life, for such a purpose Diana." He started laughing, "And I won, I did it Diana I did it. But at the end, the sword I sharpened in my heart turned out to be double edged. I created the most peaceful universe, the perfect system, for my people. At the end, my long life's wish was finally fulfilled. No, my people's wishes were fulfilled." He looked at sky, "I... merely made it happen." Cayn's voice cracked.
Silence filled the moment.
Cayn's eyes turned bloody by the end, getting back to himself he turned his head away for her not to see such a sight. He pulled out a cigarette from his pack slowly, putting it between his lips, holding his arms up as he lighted it.
Suddenly arms wrapped around his waist, for Diana's body to stuck to his.
He could hear her crying while trying her best not to make a sound, hearing her shaky breathing and running nose.
"I am sorry." He said.
She cried harder, hugging him tighter.
He sighed and threw the newly lit cigarette away.
"I am sorry," he said again as he turned to embrace her in his arms.
"Shut up. SHUT UP." She hugged him tighter as she wiped her tears on his shirt.
"Okay," putting his head on her shoulder.
The hug lasted till the night fell, without any of them saying a word.
"Cayn?" She softly said.
"Hmm?"
"I will take care of you."
Cayn didn't say a word, only held her harder.
"It's dark inside." He said after a while.
"Shut up, I know."
They both laughed.
Cayn smiled, closing his eyes feeling her warmth.
