Chapter 8

I quietly observed the scene here at the top of a building outside the town with the prince.

He was in awe of the colorful scenery up here, I rolled my eyes. The lights are so painful to the eyes, it would be nice if there were fires and many screaming human souls asking for help.

"It's really beautiful here," Pavel said with a smile so I looked at him, he was smiling while looking at the scenery.

My eyes squinted, poor creature, it just came here.

He suddenly looked at me so I looked away, I heard his laugh so I was in agony. Does this one always laugh? What's so funny? Is he crazy?

"Thank you." Suddenly he said that made me stop. I slowly looked at him. He looked at me while smiling.

"Thank you for bringing me to this place, this is a night I will never forget." He said with a smile, my eyes widened as he suddenly came to me and hugged me.

I closed my eyes because of the images that suddenly appeared in my mind. I swallowed and immediately pushed Pavel away from me. He looked at me in shock so his eyes narrowed.

"I told you not to touch me," I said so he laughed and put his hand on his head.

"Sorry, I can't help it, because this is the first time someone brought me here," he said and looked at the scene again.

I kept staring at him.

I can't rest anymore, I'm confused. What are these things I see every time he touches me or our skins touch?

What are those images? I feel real but how did that happen?

I took a deep breath, I don't have to find out what those images are, my only goal here is to make him bad to finish my mission.

"By the way, what time are we going home?" He asked and looked at me.

"It's your choice," I said then felt my back and took the bag I had been carrying earlier.

"Oh." I then gave him the bag, which he immediately caught.

"What is this?" He asked, making me cringe.

"Open that so you know." I then lie down on the floor and close my eyes.

Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet so I frowned and opened my eyes and then looked at Pavel, his eyes were wrinkled while looking at the contents of the bag. He looked at me.

"How did you get it?" He asked while looking at me, I laughed.

"I stole it," I answered and his eyes widened, I laughed out loud and then sat down.

"Of course I bought it," I said so his frown slowly disappeared and he smiled.

"But you said you didn't have any gold with you?" He asked and took the contents of the bag, I grinned.

"I can't lose a gold," I said looking ahead.

"And this bracelet? It's unique! How much gold did you spend? I'll pay you back in the palace." He said that's why I looked at him.

"Don't worry, I don't know anything about gold," I said grinning. Something came to my mind suddenly.

I watched him take out the things he took earlier that was inside the bag, the smile disappeared from my lips when I saw that he was holding the same bracelet as me, he looked at my hand and smiled.

"I thought you brought it back." He said and looked at me, I winced.

"Once it's given to me, it can't be taken back," I said and looked at him with a smile. I watched him put the bracelet in his hand, he looked at me and showed his hand where the bracelet was worn.

"There, I'm wearing the symbol of our friendship again." He said then put the things he took out inside the bag, I watched him until he finished putting them inside the bag, he suddenly looked at me and then smiled.

"You know you are the only friend of mine who brought me here." He said. I didn't say a word, I didn't have anything to say so I chose to remain silent. Then I don't even know if I was the first to bring him here.

"Bael and Cynrad, they always tell me that it's dangerous to go out of the palace because of people we don't know, they might do something bad to me, so they always remind me not to go out," he said. I heard his laugh.

"But they seem to be wrong because our constituents are kind." He said that's why I looked at him.

"Nothing happened to me that's why I can be sure that no harm will come to our subjects." He says.

"You made a mistake," I said so he looked at me, I looked in another direction.

"They're right, you don't know the people here yet so don't just trust them," I said.

He didn't answer so I looked at him.

"The rest of them are just human, you know that the person who will put you in harm's way is right in front of you," I said so he laughed.

"Are you saying you're going to put me in harm's way?" He asked with a laugh so I laughed

"What do you think?" I ask. He stopped laughing and smiled at me.

"No." He answered so the smile disappeared from my lips. Little by little, my face became serious while looking at him.

"Do you think I can be trusted?" I asked while looking into his eyes, I could read if he was just being forced into his answer or if he was lying.

He smiled at me while not taking his eyes off me.

"Yes, for me, you are kind and trustworthy." He said, my vision suddenly darkened, and I closed my eyes and calmed myself down.

"You're bad!"

"You have no heart!"

"You're a demon!"

"You are a plague!"

I heard the cries of the people I was punished with within hell and on earth. I opened my eyes and looked seriously at Pavel.

"Don't tell me that because you don't know me yet," I said coldly.

"But that's what I feel, you're a kind--"

"I'M NOT NICE!" I suddenly shouted so he stopped, he was surprised by what I did. I stood up and turned away from him, I could feel the footsteps of his friends.

"I don't have a heart and I'm not kind so don't tell me that again," I said coldly, just as the rooftop door opened and Pavel's friends spat out.

"Pavel! the dear king is looking for you! didn't we tell you not to go out!" Cynrad said annoyed and went straight to Pavel while Bael looked at me, I only gave him a cold stare.
