By the time Cohen came back to his consciousness, he has found his All he had were diure of Flynn, who has been sitting beside him, became a bit clear The wound has compressed his control over the body But the pressure came from his wife She was a woman who followed the rules and required mutual respect between the two And this ti spell behind everybody’s back, causing this unresolvable result Now Cohen felt pity, and a bit ashamed

But there was no regret

”Dear,” Forced himself to bear the pain, Cohento rest?”

”Watching my husband,” Flynn stared at Cohen, s”

”I… I rong again, please forgive ned, ”From now on, there will be no more chance for me to make a oing to be hard for you now…”

”Why say that? My husband isn’t like this” Flynn took out her handkerchief, carefully wiped the blood off Cohen’s ives up”

”I know myself” Cohen breathed, and almost lost control, ”My body, I know… I know… I’ht… you… blame me, while I can hear…”

”I had a lot of dissatisfaction, but I always know, reat man” Flynn fetched another handkerchief, ”As a son, a husband, a king… even on Rontgen, I saw a father My dissatisfaction… I was asking too much…”

”Is… that so?” Cohen has never drea… but I don’t need that… Flynn, you… don’t have to do this…”

”What I said was true, all this ti too much,” Flynn held Cohen’s hands, and spoke with tears, ”e it…”

After confirretlessly or his hallucination Cohen was confused, with all the strength left, he asked, ”What… why?”

Cohen’sAfter a series of devouring and rejoining, the vicious evils that left were co Their har worse

”I’ive my heart to, I don’t want to share with other woht Winslet back, I can’t accept this But, they offer you the love that I can’t give you… I have asked too much, I never found how selfish I was” Tears welled her eyes, ”I had to lead them, I had to spend all my time on work, but all I as your happiness I merely made you smile… those days… you can always find happiness within the bitter… andwith you…”

”I am a selfish woman, but my love for you is more than anyone, I care about you more than anyone My love for you exists… it… really exists Tears dropped, Flynn held Cohen’s hands firmly, ”The flowers on my s kne much I wanted you to succeed, and cos to us I have prayed to theaway, the empire, the people Hoanted to be with you as an innocent girl…”

”I’ve tried and prayed for that day to come I tried, and I didn't even have tiht, these days will pass, and I will have ive you happiness… but this time… this chance will never be there” Flynn finally cried, like a Winslet, ”Forgive me… I was afraid… I didn’t want this…”

Flynn’s words becaue, but Cohen wanted to shout out and tell her What she said hat he wanted to say When he knew that they were on the sa, Cohen could only curse the damn world

”Your world… and my world… are separated… you treat me like a family instead of a lover I was bossy I don’t blame anyone It’s my fault” Flynn leaned forward and kissed on Cohen’s forehead, ”I ever wanted to come into your world, and ready to accept the day that you truly fall in love with me… but I have an unfinished destiny, I can’t… forgive me, my lover, from the day I was born, I was shackled

As Flynn talked, Cohen was unable to hear a word He watched her talking with tears, his hands held firain, and he felt his body drawn into the floor, part of which floated in the air… again and again, he was pulled back by Flynn’s words

”I… I can’t…” Cohen felt, he couldn’t fight against the inner evils any longer, and he knew the evils are able to manipulate dead bodies Cohen shouted silently, ”Flynn… don’t stay here… danger… Raven!! Hurry up… kill me!”

Raven has been standing by the door with his sword Not for long, the door opened, he found Flynn with red eyes crying

”What I said, did you hear?”

Raven nodded

”Then stay away!” Flynn said so she could never speak, rudely

Raven stood up and walked aside silently with obedience He sat down once again and said, ”What you said last, he didn’t hear it”

”That’s not your problem,” Flynn said coldly, colder even than Raven,”Can't I say it?”

Flynn went back in the room and shut the door

”That’s also not my problem I don’t like you I never do” Raven said towards the door, ”But at least, I was saved by sohteous you want to keep him, at least tell He will appreciate that”

Bluntly ignored Raven's words, Flynn caers on his face, said, ”Thank you, my dear, from now on, I can drop my responsibilities”

Cohen lied on the bed twitching, said nothing

”Tree whispered e ers through her hair and crossed hands on her chest She closed her weepy eyes ”I, ae forlover, you that sunk in dreams”

Raven kept a distance fro left the room

”Watch upon me, ancient stars Hear rief fro of life If only tears were taken away fro for eternity I shall not be myself Leader of souls, I pray for your return Please reverse the choice of life and death, and redeereement I’m here to offer, my [bee][1] blood…”

Night breeze traveled in the darkness unaware of what’s happening at this moment Cold raindrops landed on Raven's face
