　　Now that I have learned about Torin's treachery, I was incredibly upset and wanted nothing but revenge. But at the same time I had realized that I had wrongly doubted Emeric for The Prophecy that I could not even hear fully.

　　After a little celebration I turned to emeric and apologized to him. "Why are you saying sorry?"

　　" Because I wrongly doubted you and trusted my elders that you were the one who was responsible for my parents death." I wiped the smile right off his face. He gave me a look of mixed emotions. I quickly hugged him.

　　"I am very sorry for my assumptions about you, Emeric."I knew for one that I could not bring myself to not trust emeric anymore. I should be a little more vigilant but that is it.

　　"...I will have to leave you for a little moment there. I want to use the gym room if the palace has it." I gently nodded my head at him and told the directions to the palace's gym room. My big pack house had a gym of course.

　　I think I know why he was trying to put a distance between us. It is that I hurt his feelings very deeply and he is trying to get it out of his system while also giving us both some space. He was trying to be productive as well.

　　I almost thought of following him and proposed that I would use the gym with him but then this clicked to me in an instant. As he disappeared from the room I jumped back into the bed and curled to a fetal position. I tucked myself into the bed. The covers were on me as I decided it was best for me to get some sleep rather than let thoughts of my own disrupt my peace.

　　I took a nap which made me feel refreshed. It was almost around night that I woke up again. However I noticed that Emeric was not in the room. Did he not come back from the gym? I wonder where he was. I decided to wash my face and look for him in the palace.

　　'Do you think he might have forgiven us for doubting him?'

　　' Emeric understands where I was coming from. He probably might side with me and must have for given me already. He was the one who taught me that it is fine to doubt people as long as you don't prove them guilty by force. And as soon as they prove themselves to be either innocent or guilty action is must be taken accordingly.'

　　'Hmm…you indeed have learned a lot from him. Didn't you?'

　　'Yeah…'

　　I was silently walking around the corridors. I was trying to get in touch with my element as it was night. The moon was almost growing into its size as I couldn't help but smile at the sight. I made my way into the gym. It has been approximately 3 hours since Emeric went to the gym to train himself. He would usually tap out after 4 or 5 hours of training. Continuously.

　　However when I enter the gym I saw no one. The lights were switch off and I could not sense emeric in here. I forward my eyebrows and wondered where he was in the palace. Should I go search for him or should I give him more time to forgive me. Since like the first option was more feasible. And so I took my own sweet time to try and find Emeric in my big Palace. I was walking around at my own face. Somehow The Silence felt so Serena for me at this point.

　　I wanted into the garden which had rare species of plants and all Botanical wonders that humans and other species have created. I was specifically very drawn to this garden of my pack house.

　　This had such a touch to it that I could not help myself but go in there and try to clear my mind. It was an open space hence I could also view the moon that looks so beautiful today. However the scent of the man was all over the place. I pulled my lips into a tight smile and approached him. My approach towards him was cautious enough. His back was turned towards me and I didn't want to ruin his mood without announcing that I was here.

　　"Hey," I folded my hands behind me and gently leaned on to his back. I tried to smile at him but he was not looking at me. I called his name out but then again I did not get a response once again. This had upset me more than I thought it would.

　　"Emeric…please talk to me." I kept my request neutral because I wanted him to speak about just anything. At same time I did not want to force him to talk to me.

　　"Emeric—" before I could have spoken again he cut me of and said, "What do you think the prophecy must have said?"

　　"The Prophecy that I had?" I questioned him.

　　He ordered his head without looking at me again.

　　" I couldn't hear much nor could I see much because Torin had stolen my artifact by then. But The Prophecy had said that the king of all is the one who was responsible for my parents death." He stopped.

　　"Now I could see why you were doubting me." I did not say anything in reply to that.

　　"If I would have been thinking in the right direction and as the dots were connecting by themselves I can say that Leif was the one who was the Rising tyrant who would be known as the king of all. A king is someone who is all ambitious and wants to conquer more than just one Kingdom. That is exactly what leaf is doing at the moment. "

　　He was so right about that. So finally we can agree that Leif was the one who was the atrocious leader behind my parents death. With the help of Torin, he and Torin got rid of my parents for what reason. I wanted to know everything from both perspectives.

　　It was a wordless decision that Emeric and I have taken that I would be fighting Torin while Emeric would manage the Rising tyrant named Leif. This would be an agreement and we would stick by this.

　　Moving just a little closer towards him I requested with the soft voice, "Could you please hug me Emeric, I need it."

　　The man finally gave in and tucked me under his arm. Against the cold night his warm embrace was filling me with a sense of comfort and security. We will be executing our plan tomorrow…
