Chapter 66 - Astrids side (1/2)

He pushed her into the tiled wall, her bare back lay cold as it touches the tiles. Her breathing heavy and hot.

Astrid can also feel his rugged breathing as they stare at each other's eyes. She's drowning in those dark orbs of his, it's like the black hole of the galaxy, sucking her whole self.

"Take me," she said, their bodies sliding over each other. His warm hands went up to her hips.

"I can f*ck you without having feelings for you," he whispered, looking intently at her ocean blue eyes.

"I can never love you"

He removes his hands and slowly turns his back into her.

Her heart was crushed into a million pieces, it's not because she is ugly, it's simply because he doesn't love her, he can't and will never will.

'Love Logan? When did you learn the meaning of love?' she asked herself although she knew the answer.

It would've been better in the past, Logan didn't know what love is, but now? How cruel it is to not be chosen.

"You deserve better," he said before finally closing the door.

"But you are the best..." she meekly said with tears gushing out her eyes, it twinkled like the ocean when the sun rises only that, it is because of sadness.

Her old self flashbacks, her mother said that she was born to be an empress, it was prophesized upon her birth, she did become one...but it may not last any longer.

*Flashback*

"L-l-look Logainn!"

The little girl with blue eyes came running to the charming little boy under the tree, she trips down, her eyes starting to water.

"L-Logaiin" she sniffs.

"It's Logan" the boy sighed as he closed his book and gets up to help the young kid.

"Lowgan, look! A flower" she said trying to correct the pronunciation but failed. She opened her hands, giving him a pink flower.

"It's hydrangea," the boy said, accepting the flowers. The girl nodded enthusiastically.

"It's hard to s-say but my mother said that it means love, weddings, and marriage...can you love me? and marry me when we're older? Puh-leaseee?" her squeaky voice asked, excited for the response of the handsome kid.

"I don't know what love is but marriage? Sure," he said without a care, he really doesn't want the girl to cry, his ears get hurt.
