Lillian finally left and everyone let loose and began talking with each other without reservations.

Myles leaned towards Gabriella and whispered.

" Is dinner here always this entertaining?"

" Yes. I feel like I wasted five years of my life living abroad. I missed so much drama!", Gabriella replied, pouting.

Myles laughed.

The moonlight shone brighter than the stars in the dark night sky. A lovely melody rang through the room. A pair of slender hands moved across the keyboard of the white piano.

Riley sat on the chair as she played the piano. Tears were streaming down her face as her mind wandered.

" Just a little more Darling. Just practice a little more. Then you will get your powers"

" Why aren't you like your sister? Both of you are my daughters. Why are the two of you so different?"

" Why are you bullying your sister?! She is just a timid and innocent girl! She isn't as scheming as you!"

" Why are you always in the palace garden plucking the flowers and crying?"

The music abruptly stopped. Riley got up and walked to the window. She looked down and stared at the large front yard.

" Why is my life like this? Why can't I be with him? Why can't I live my life peacefully?!!", Riley shouted as she slowly fell to the ground.

Outside the Newton Manor.

A black-ish blue car was parked outside Riley's house. In the car sat a man with golden blonde hair and emerald eyes. A cigarette rested between his index finger and his middle finger. He stared at Riley and saw her fall.

It's been ten years. Slowly but steadily, the girl who danced in the palace garden wearing a pure white dress became his forbidden fruit. She was so close yet so far from him. Sometimes, he wanted to tell her. He wanted to tell her that he loved her with all his heart. He wanted to tell her not to leave him. He wanted to tell her that everything will be fine with him around. But whenever he wants to say it, something inside him tells him to continue hiding his feelings.

But slowly as time passes, the innocent girl who sat under the huge oak tree with him, turned into an alluring young lady whose beauty can compare to Goddess Zedona. ( Zedona is the Goddess of music in Etroanian mythology)

Unwilling to watch her in the arms of another, he left Etroana and lived in Gwacary as a spy. But this time, he simply didn't care. He didn't care about what others thought. He will tell her how he felt. He will tell her that he loved her
