Evelyn was in a mess as she heard that Rex has left with Calidora without saying anything.

Being alone with Adhara all day also makes her paranoid, especially hearing what she has to say about their situation that\'s most likely heading to their abandonment. It made her body becomes weak, her strength was melting away from her body.

"R-Rex... just what is going on...?"

Clenching her teeth, Evelyn quickly sprinted away sensing that Rex hasn\'t left the city.

Although she doesn\'t know what she was going to say when she meets him, the only thing in her mind is to meet with Rex. A hunch appeared in her heart, she felt that if she didn\'t do anything now then she will be too late.

Ignoring the lively street, she kept sprinting towards the gate of the city.

She exerts everything she has to catch up to Rex, it was akin to her running away from the paranoia and fear, the reaching black hands that came straight from the abyss of abandonment that is catching up to her from the back.

Its undeniable coldness already breezes her skin, shivering her body and soul.

Upon nearing the gate of the city, Evelyn pants heavily not so much out of fatigue but out of despair. She then saw Rex and Calidora\'s backs in the distance, the two left through the gate and ventured outside.

Not wanting to be left behind, Evelyn didn\'t waste her time and climbed the city walls.

A couple of guards that were from the first batch of Supernaturals were surprised to find her landing on the wall, but she ignored them and looks at Calidora that has Rex\'s arm around her neck. She seems to be supporting Rex who finds it hard to walk properly.

Despite his injuries, he shouldn\'t be in this much pain. It seems he sustained new injuries.

Evelyn reaches out her hand and intends to call out his name, but there was no voice that came out of her mouth. Her body was completely paralyzed when Calidora suddenly glanced over her shoulder to look directly at her.

Both of their eyes met for a brief moment, and Calidora grinned from ear to ear.

Just the malicious smile Calidora is directing at Evelyn alone makes her tighten, striking a feeling that she doesn\'t know to react with. Many new questions and doubts appeared inside her mind, but her heart got completely shattered in the next second.

In a conspicuous manner, Calidora winked at her before she smooched Rex\'s neck.

Crash!

Like a thunderous uproar, the sight of this completely crushes her heart into pieces. The sound of her heart crumbling into pieces was palpable in her ears, it was an act of declaration from Calidora, showing that she had won.

Despite the pain, she couldn\'t avert her eyes elsewhere and focus on the scene.

\'Why...? How did this happen...?\'

Deg!

\'I\'m okay if he did it with Adhara or Gistella...\'

Deg!

\'But why her...? And why is he not resisting?\'

Deg!

\'Why is he letting that Vampire kiss his neck...?\'

Almost as if she was trapped in an inescapable trance, she could hear her own heartbeats.

It was steady a moment ago, it was still steady when she was sprinting through the city. But now it started to quicken, each beat from her heart feels like pushing her skin, and it becomes painful. Her chest also began to burn from within.

Evelyn clutches her heart strongly, the pain is more painful than actually being stabbed.

Naturally, responding to the heartache she was experiencing, she also finds it hard to breathe. Suddenly, her legs gave out, she was still facing the ground. Upon seeing this, the guards called out to her in worry.

But their voices were drowned by her own inner voice.

\'It hurts, the pain in my chest... it hurts. My senses are numb, my mind is in a mess...\'

\'The only thing I can feel and think about is the pain\'

Just then she saw a couple of droplets of water wetting the ground in front of her.

\'Ah... it\'s started raining\'

\'No... I was too overwhelmed, detached from reality, and didn\'t realize that I\'m crying...\'

Still clutching her aching heart, Evelyn puts her forehead against the ground before her mind went completely blank. Her mind doesn\'t seem to understand but her body poured out all of the emotions, sobbing and crying without care of her surroundings.

A moment later.

Gistella saw Adhara sitting on the stairs to the throne silently from the side.

Upon looking at this from the hallway, her expression darkens as she clenched both of her hands into fists tightly. It was a sight that she has never seen before, Gistella has never seen Adhara so vulnerable and broken like this.

Approaching her with steady steps, Gistella holds Adhara\'s shoulder and sat beside her.

None of the two talked for a couple of minutes.

"Back then when Rosie asked me to plead to Rex to not abandon her, I thought to myself \'Well, I\'m pretty sure Rex is already fixed with his decision. So even if I do it, the outcome wouldn\'t change\'. Because of that, I didn\'t really try to help..." Adhara chuckled in ridicule, looking at the floor gloomily.

She pauses for a second before she continues, "Now that I\'m in this position, I know I was wrong. I couldn\'t imagine what Rosie felt back then. Please, Gistella... even if he won\'t change his decision, can you please try to convince him otherwise?"

"What are you saying? Rex will not abandon you, no matter what" Gistella refutes.

Despite not knowing what makes Rex this angry and disappointed in the two of them, she wants to believe that he would never abandon Adhara and Evelyn. Rex wouldn\'t be that cruel to the two of them.

But Adhara quickly intervenes, "Promise me, Gistella. Promise me you\'ll try..."

"I\'m not promising you anything, because that won\'t happen" Gistella stubbornly replied.

After saying that, the throne room becomes silent once again. 

However, it didn\'t take long before the entrance to the castle was opened again. Gelmar walk in a hurry, he was supporting Evelyn that seemed to be in a paralyzed state as even her gaze is already blank.I think you should take a look at

Gistella quickly helps him before putting Evelyn down on the stairs beside Adhara.

"What happened...?"

"I don\'t know, the guards report to me that Lady Evelyn started crying on the city walls"

Upon hearing this Gistella could only glance at her in utter confusion, it must be because of Rex. But to actually be crying in public like that must indicate that it\'s something big, Evelyn is not that weak-willed.

Not wanting to idle further, Gelmar bowed and quickly left the castle.

Gistella looks back a the two and saw both Adhara and Evelyn in their lowest state, the two that she considered family has been completely shattered. It was as if the two has lost their motivation to keep on living.

Such a situation is completely out of her expectation, and it sparks something within her.

"Instead of sulking and being down like this, shouldn\'t the two of you do something about this? Both of you know whose fault this is, the only answer is to get rid of the source of the problem" Gistella suddenly said firmly.

Her tone was not like usual, it was more commanding and strict.

Adhara and Evelyn instantly know what Gistella meant by that but they could only put on a feeble smile. "What are you saying, Gistella...? You said it yourself, we couldn\'t do anything that might irritate Rex further. Getting rid of her has a high chance to go wrong..." Evelyn said meekly.

On the other hand, Adhara only looks away, not even saying anything.

But this makes Gistella furious as her eyes spark with a murderous glint, she wasn\'t going to let this go without any repercussions. In her eyes, Adhara and Evelyn are her close family, and seeing them like this pained her.

"If that\'s the case, then I\'ll be the one to do something about this" Gistella eventually said.

Upon hearing this, Evelyn and Adhara\'s eyes widened in surprise. None of them expected Gistella to actually dare to do something, "But before that, I want you to answer me truthfully from the heart. Do you love Rex...?"

In response to this, the two look at each other in surprise.

But at the same time, Adhara and Evelyn answered in a union, "Yes..."

"What if he\'s not as strong as he is right now? What if he abandoned you and disappear forever? Will you be fine and still love him or your feelings will also change?" Gistella asked again, this time with a condition.

Although that is the case, the two answered again in a union, "I\'ll still love him"

"If that\'s the case, then leave this to me. I\'ll try and do something" Gistella nodded her head before standing up. She then turned around and walks towards the hallway again, leaving Adhara and Evelyn alone.

Looking at her back going further away, Adhara and Evelyn couldn\'t help but wonder.

\'What is she going to do...?\'

~

Meanwhile, outside of Dargena City.

"How long are you going to stay like that...? Don\'t do that if it\'s not for blood, it\'s not necessary"

"It\'s a punishment, right? We need to make it hurt"

Not even turning around to look at Evelyn who was crying on the walls, Rex walks side by side with Calidora on the paved road away from Dargena City. Clearly, the two are heading somewhere without telling anyone but Gelmar.

But the two didn\'t manage to reach far, Rex suddenly grunted in pain.

Knowing that Rex wouldn\'t be able to force himself for a bit thanks to what he did, Calidora is forced to put him down and help him lean on the tree trunk near the mouth of the Humming Damned Forest.

Sighing lightly, Calidora shakes her head while looking at Rex\'s condition.

"You overdid it with that thing, I don\'t think he will be that meticulous"

"Preventive measure is a must to make the plan go smoother, you should be mindful of that"

Deciding to not think about it much as Rex has his own ways to reach the position he was in now, Calidora didn\'t argue and sat beside him, "So, would you mind telling me why you decided to use the woman approach? I believe there are other ways of doing this"

"Men, no matter the races only care about three things. Wealth, Power, and Women" 

Looking at the beautiful night sky for a brief moment to recuperate under the moonlight, Rex then continues, "No matter which one is their priority, the other factors will always have an impact on them. It would be impossible to get rid of the desire for any of those three things completely. I couldn\'t afford to incite the Power and Wealth factor as that would make things complicated, so Women is the best factor to approach him with"

"I did this with a heavy heart, but I must take a calculated risk" he added and closes his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Calidora suddenly giggled sweetly.

Rex looks at her with one of his eyebrows raised before she opens her mouth, "If you said that a man couldn\'t get rid of the desire for any of those three things completely, then how come you could?"

"What do you mean by that?" Rex asked in confusion.

But this puts a teasing smile on Calidora\'s face, "I\'ve used my scent to provoke you, I\'ve even deliberately shown some of my skin, and I also kissed your neck earlier. For me, it looks like you\'re completely immune to the Women factor"

Realizing what she meant, Rex averted his gaze elsewhere and didn\'t answer.

Seeing this, Calidora didn\'t push him further.

"It\'s not that I\'m completely unaffected, but I can hide it very well. Let\'s just say, I\'ve had incidents in the past that forced me to improve my self-control..." Rex suddenly replied which caught Calidora off guard.

Albeit that\'s the case, hearing his answer blooms the smile on her face.

Even though it was through the smokescreen of the past, Rex in a way admitted that he was affected by her charm. And that alone is enough of an answer for Calidora, the smile on her face indicates that.

Just as a couple of minutes passed in silence again, Calidora glanced at Rex.

"Say, can I ask you another question?"

"What is it?"

"My Eyes of Terror has many abilities, and one of them is to sense fear. I couldn\'t actually see fear but I could feel if someone is experiencing fear. When I first met you, you don\'t have the slightest bit of fear. But now, when we meet during the fight against the Witch\'s pets, I sensed immense fear from you. So I\'m curious, Rex... What are you so fearful of?"
