Cedric's response took her by surprise when she followed his posting with a deep questioning eyes. Something felt odd when she asked him about his mother. The feeling was instinctive but she believed that there was more about his mother which was he hiding from her.

Her curiosity raised and she made up her mind to know more about Jasmine. She had secretly bore respect towards the woman who had sacrificed herself for the sake of her family. Ayra spoke back watching him staying nonchalant all the time,

" Pardon if I am making you unhappy. But how is that possible? You don't visit her grave or Sister Isabella? I am sure that she misses your mother everyday."

Cedric responded getting up from the bed to lean against the cupboard boringly,

" There is nothing to miss about her when I haven't even spent a single day with her."

" If I am not wrong, she has done this to keep you safe, My Lord. A little tribute won't bring any harm on you.", came the sharp response from Ayra who found his words rude. It was fine to have no memories of his mother but neglecting her graveyard seemed too respectful according to Ayra's thoughts.

Cedric's expression darkened a little after she threw back those words. Undoubtedly he wasn't happy to talk about his mother but there was nothing that he could react on it. Because the person who was asking him was none other than his wife, his queen.

Cedric exhaled a long sigh before getting up from the bed completely. He picked up his cigar from his bed side and walked near the window to lit up one as if he heard none of her questions.

Ayra kept waiting for his answer and stared on his back unblinkingly. Cedric dragged in a long puff before reasoning out of no choice,

" Her body was taken by her family. After that we know nothing about it. Even Father wasn't allowed to visit her grave."

" Her family? Who are they?", came the short answer from Ayra who couldn't help but wandering about everything.

Cedric dragged out another gush of smoky air. He replied a bit coldly,

" The ancient clan of dragons. They used to hate my father. Then she decided to elope with my father after she fell in love with him. Afterwards they disowned her."

Ayra couldn't stop herself from saddening. A woman not only sacrificed herself for her family but also lost her other family for her love. She kept urging to know more about her,

" Did you meet her family ever or Did you try to know about her grave?"

Cedric shrugged putting on a sad smile on his face,

" I didn't find it necessary. They already hate me enough to kill me probably. I am the reason that they have lost their daughter for forever."

Ayra retorted frowning harder at his indifferent behavior,

" At least you could have tried once, Your Highness. That woman did everything to keep you safe. Ignoring her last existence in this earth seems disrespectful."

" She.. didn't..do it.. for..me..", Cedric rebuked sharply. His face turned darker and he had lost the color of his bright side. He whipped around to continue further coldly,

" She has done everything for her love towards my father. I am the only excuse here and I don't appreciate that at all. I am sorry to say that ending her own life for her love was a foolish, baseless decision."

Ayra's face hardened after listening to him. She countered back in a deep thoughtful voice,

" Sacrificing yourself for your love isn't shameful, Your Highness! "

Her response only brought a chuckle on his face. Cedric gave her a long, thoughtful look before breathing out another hot smoke of air. He responded in a berated tone,

" She killed herself for him who didn't appreciate her when she was alive in this world. What killed her? Her one sided selfless man for King Oscar. He wasn't even sincere with her till the very end. Tell me Princess, what is the point of loosing your life for that man?"

Ayra was surprised by the hint of iciness that he carried in his tone. So far she assumed that Cedric was very grateful to his late mother but she didn't expect that her view of love, sacrifice was completely opposite of him. Cedric added the last party with a tone of mockery on his father,

" He couldn't even convince her to stay by his side forever. What is the point of having such love?"

This time, Ayra felt her chest tightening uncomfortably. Few moments back, they were taking vows to stay with each others forever but she had the feeling now that Cedric didn't care about this facts with seriousness.

She couldn't stop herself from stirring the question straightforwardly,

" I guess, you are on the same path then, My Lord. Why did you ask for my sincerity then if you don't believe in love? What was the reason behind our vows?"

Cedric bit back his tongue sharply. He shouldn't have spoken so blatantly with her since she just offered herself completely to his demon. Throwing the cigar out through the window, he walked over to her slowly

Cedric smiled trying to change the topic with sarcasm lacing out from his tone,

" Rest assured, Princess. I won't let yourself sacrifice in vain for me ever."

" That wasn't my question, My Lord. You don't value the love one bore for each others. What was the reason behind our vows?", Ayra rebuked sharply without faltering anymore. For some unknown reason, she wanted to hear from him that he cared for her and wanted to spend the entire life with her.

But Cedric gave nowhere close to her answer. He smiled down at her smugly to reply her playfully,

" I just want to repeat the same mistake as my father did, Princess. Whether you want or not, you must stay by my side always."
