Chapter 66 - Astrids side (2/2)

"Astrid come here, don't bother his highness anymore," the duchess of Luniel Kingdom said, her mother.

She glanced at him one more time before waving goodbye.

Every day she's drawing them together, her picture with Logan and at the bottom is written, "Logan Love Astrid"

She cannot wait for the day she will become Mrs. Fergus.

*End of flashback*

Until now, the portrait of their wedding was painted by her carefully, she even adjusted some parts of it, making Logan seem happier than neutral.

As she was left in the cold room, hugging her self, all she can feel is pity for her past self.

"He will not love you...don't chase him any further" was what she wanted to say at the little girl.

She's pretty, many boys chased her and at some point, she even thought Grayson has feelings for her but she can't control the one thing that dictates her actions, her heart.

Maybe if only she did not leave him before to get her sickness treated, his heart would have been hers.

Maybe if she's strong enough physically he will love her.

And maybe just maybe, if Celestia didn't come, she will be the one to make Logan realized what love is.

She soaked her body in the water, staying there for an hour or two, contemplating about her life, she can't let her mother know about this mess in her marriage life.

As she puts on her red robe, she dialed her number one caller.

"B-Brielle?" she sniffs as she called her best friend, Jade Brielle Reagan, the worst b*tch in the whole empire, has a gang of her own and even one of the leaders of the underground world.

"Astrid? Why did you call? Did someone bully you?!" her friend asked, Brielle knew Astrid, too soft to revenge.

"I-I-Logan" she stuttered, her eyes are now red from too much crying yet no one even cares.

She told her all what happened and from the other line, she can hear Brielle cursed. She has no one to talk with, if her mother found out about her situation, she might disown her, after all, her mother cares in power more than anything.

"I've got a plan," her friend said, her voice still angry.

Astrid did not like it, sure she wants to ruin their relationship but not in this way, in a dangerous and vile way.
