“Shhhh!! Reduce your tone.” He placed a finger to his lips, silently begging her to reduce the volume of her voice, and his actions did nothing but confuse the baffled Anna even more, as though her presence had frightened him immensely.

Her heart nearly ripped out of her chest when she thought he was a thief. She got so worried that she had to handle a thief all by herself, she decided to focus her strength on making sure she weakened him. No doubt, she impaled Levi with the broom many times before he got the chance to speak. She was sure he must have been hurt from the whole broom whipping and now she felt guilty for her actions.

“Are you alright?” She took a step forward to check him out, making sure he didn’t get seriously hurt from the way she lashed the broom at him. He got a small cut at his upper cheekbone, but it healed in no time, and he was perfectly fine again, his skin looking as flawless as it always did.

“You scared me,” Anna admitted, releasing a sigh that helped ease her heart, “I really had no idea it was you, I thought a thief had broken in so I panicked. If you hadn’t spoken up I would have seriously hurt you, why were you sneaking around the palace like that?”

She felt extremely bad for hitting Levi, but she wouldn’t have done that if he wasn’t sneaking around like some ghost. Her main objective right now was getting answers as to why he’s sneaking in with a cloak so late at night.

“Anna_” Levi’s trembling lips parted as he tried to explain his situation to her, but before the words could slip his lips, he stopped, recalling the terrible things that might occur if he dared open his mouth to speak.

No! He shook his head mentally.

Not to her.

.....

After getting rid of the panic Levi had caused in her heart, Anna finally noticed that the ever jovial Levi who never fails to carry a bright smile on his lips had tears in his eyes. His amber eyes were shimmering with real tears, despite how he fought with himself to hold them back, and the sight of his expression threw Anna off guard.

“Levi?”

Realizing she had succeeded in noticing his tears, he bobbed his head, refusing to meet her concerned gaze as they stood right in the middle of the hall that led to the upstairs.

“What_What happened-” she took a step closer to him, wondering what the problem was, and if his tears had something to do with where he was going.

“Anna...” sadness clouded his soft features. He was so close to leaving the palace tonight. He had assumed everyone would be at sleep at this specific time which is why he used the opportunity, but he ran into the last person his mind ever thought he’d meet.

How will he escape from this? What can he do to make Anna keep quiet about tonight?

“Is something wrong?” Meanwhile Anna was more concerned about why Levi appeared so devastated for the first time. His glowing happy stares were now clouded with pain, secrets and regrets as he looked at Anna, but before she could guess why, he broke her from her chain of thoughts.

“Levi?”

“Why are you still awake?” Levi tried to switch the question, but Anna wasn’t a fool to let herself fall into it.

“And why are you dressed like this? Are you going somewhere or coming from somewhere?”

“Shhhh!!” Levi silenced her when she spoke a bit too loudly again, “stop or you’ll wake everyone up.” The last thing he wanted was to draw too much attention to himself, and he doesn’t want anyone to see him like this, he’s hid his part of the pain from everyone and it still bugs him that Anna got to see him like this.

“Can you not speak of this to anyone,” his glossy eyes looked pleading, “can this remain between us both, please Anna.”

His actions were surprising Anna herself, but before she could give her response as to why he wanted her to do something like that, she heard a familiar deep voice speak behind her.

“What are you doing there?”

She gasped since she wasn’t expecting someone to show up. Turning around, she noticed Roshan standing at the top of the stairs, looking down at her as he questioned her curiously.

But why was he asking her, can’t he see–

Turning her head so she could look at Levi, the Demon had surprisingly vanished out of sight, leaving Anna’s words to hang in her throat as she had no idea what to say to Roshan, seeing as Levi was nowhere to be seen.

He left? Where did he go? He was standing right here??

“Anna.”

She spun around to look at Roshan who was still waiting for her response, and he was already coming down the stairs to meet her.

“Everything alright?” He asked, he was actually waiting for her so they could go to sleep together, but since she didn’t come, he decided to come find her himself.

“Yes, I am fine.” She assured him, “I thought I saw someone, that’s all.”

Shaking his head hopelessly at her words, he reached to pick the woman in his arms, surprising Anna as her face flushed in astonishment, and he was taking her up the stairs.

“It’s obvious you need sleep.” He said to her, but Anna knew he was messing with her like always. She wrapped her hands around his neck, gently clinging onto him as he carried her up the stairs, but that didn’t stop her mind from wandering exactly where Levi disappeared to.

Back in Euphrasia, Calista was pacing restlessly in her chamber, unable to get some sleep since she kept dreaming of a certain someone and missing him badly. She bit at her nails, walking back and forth as she tried to find a solution to this madness of hers, but everything around her stopped when Azazel surprisingly appeared right in her room.

Her eyes widened at his majestic presence, and as always his enchanting face was emotionless as he met her worried gaze, his eyes looking no different from an actual ice, as though it had been frozen and carved into the perfect eye size.

It looked empty.

Smiling at his presence, Calista didn’t bother to think twice as she ran into his arms, hugging him out of the blue and leaving Azazel’s body to tense at the physical contact.

“You came.” Was the only thing she could say. To be honest, she’s been feeling a little down lately and needed someone to talk to. Archer had been trying his best to communicate with her, but what can she do when she’s not interested in being with him.

Her heart was silently yearning in pain for one person, and just when she couldn’t stop thinking of him, he appeared right before her like a dream come true.

“Hands off me.” His cold tone brought Calista back to reality. Her eyes snapped open and the lingering smile on her lips slipped. Recalling exactly what she just did, she realized that she had hugged a man right in her room.

“Ah!” She pulled back almost immediately, keeping a distance from the white-haired being who’s demeanor hadn’t changed. Her cheeks flushed in embarrassment and she felt like slapping herself across the face. She really saw no one else to hug but Azazel?

What will he think of her??

“F_forgive me, I_I got–”

“Save it.” He clipped her off, “I’m not concerned about any of that, neither does your personality or what I think of you bothers me in the slightest way.”

As always, he ends up crushing her heart with his solid responses, and she couldn’t understand why he hated her like this.

“I don’t like being interrupted when I sleep, currently you’re bugging me, you’re thinking a little too much about me to the extent I’m being summoned.” He looked out the window before looking at her.

“It’s late midnight, why aren’t you asleep?”
