“Next morning, when I came to the palace.. I found her.. Naked and dead!”

Her stunned body was not able to move for long. She did not have any idea on how to console a mother who had seen the naked body of her daughter. Even the thought of it was making all her nerves tightened while blood could be seen in her eyes.

She wanted to go and punch and then castrate Vincent if he was the one behind it. Just how cruel he was..! How could he do so to a woman no matter how much he hated it.

He was an animal! No! Calling him an animal would be an insult to animals. Her hands clenched tightly as she knew that she could not lose her cool but it was too much!

Damn! If she would ignore this then what does it matter if she was the empress. What face she would show to the maids who think that she was bold and strong. Was all that so fake and she was a coward inside.

“Are you sure that Vincent had done this?” she asked, trying to hide the anger in her voice. She tried her best to control her anger but even her nails dug deeper into her skin were not able to hide her hatred and anger.

“I do not have any proof. It might be another prince and princess too or maybe the students who did not want her to study medicine but…” she looked away as if she was hesitating in telling her but Hazel could see there was more to it.

“But what.? If you need my help, you have to be honest with me.” the maid shook her head at her words while her eyes softened.







“I.. what right to a lowly self like me have to think that i can take revenge or ask for your help.

I only want you to stay alert. I have felt that same craze in the eyes of his highness when he was looking at you. The same craze that he had when he looked at my daughter and that fool took it as love.

That man.. He is a beast who does not love anyone. It must be my impudence but I am sure that he would kill his family if it would benefit him.

My lady, I did not want you to get killed the same way. That was why I have tried my best to get the chance to serve you alone so that I could warn you. You have to stay away from him.” The woman continued to shake her head and repeat the same words that made Hazel wonder how much she had suffered alone to not worry about her own life.

If it was found that she had said such accusations against the crown prince, she would be hanged in the name of treason yet she did not want revenge while telling her all this!

“If you have any proof. I can help you. You may not get revenge but have you ever thought that if this kind of person would sit on the throne of the emperor, then how many girls would suffer the same end as your daughter?” the woman shook but bowed her head as if it had nothing to do with her.

Hazel’s blood boiled. She could not believe that the woman was so cowardly to still serve the man who had killed her daughter so gruesomely and thought just to warn her, her responsibility had finished.

“Fine, if that is what your final decision is! Then I do not think that I can trust you. If the woman, who had loist her child yet did not care about other girls being raped or killed, what do you want to prove by saving me when my life is not even in threat.

I did not want to think how disappointed your daughter would be. Do you love your life so much?” there was a harsh mock in her voice while her eyes filled with disappointment. Hazel looked away from the woman as she stood up.







The person who did not want to save herself, could not be saved by anyone else. She had to stand up for herself to get what she wanted.

She stood up ready to leave the room with a new determination to support Rafael to get rid of her family. She felt nauseated just by sharing the same blood as them. If only.. She shook her head as she was about to walk out when finally the maid raised her head again.

“I.. I do not care about my life. But what if the world knows what happened to my daughter! What if they knew that she was….” she sobbed again. Though her daughter was dead, she was still looked upon with respect as the single woman she knew how to treat others.

There was a charm in her, she was remembered as a woman with wings.

“Her memories are an inspiration for many girls who had a dream of doing the impossible. If they all knew what fate she had suffered, the dream of all those girls would be lost and fear would be filled in their eyes..

Their wings would be crippled and hopelessness would be filled in them. When i go back to the village and those girls came to tell me that they would study medicine and fill the dreams of my daughter, i feel like she was still there.” Hazel felt a pang in her chest.

Just how.. How much she had suffered.

“But have you ever thought that your lies could force these girls to walk on the same path? What if Vincent’s eye fell on one of them and he brought them too.

You and I would not be able to save those innocent girls then. If you want to strengthen their wings, then do not do it with lies. You have to get Vincent punished so that they would know… if anyone would try to hurt them and their dreams, he would suffer the same end.”
