******************#####****************
On a quiet night a young woman was enjoying the beautiful skyline. The woman was so engrossed in her world that she was completely unaware that a mysterious man was watching her.
The man continued to look at the young woman until he finally decided to come and approach her.
The remaining distance of the two was only three meters away yet the woman was still unaware of the presence of the man. Women are still in his world, not knowing what he is really thinking but surely the man just keeps stepping closer to him.
When the man stood in front of him, the young woman realized it. He realized when the sky he was looking at now turned into the face of the handsome man.
"April!" twilight shouted in shock as Cavil's face was right in front of him.
"What are you doing here?"
Dusk asked with a face expression that was still shocked. He had thought that the entire Winter family was discussing inside the Marques' office.
"That's none of your business" exclaimed Cavil coldly just like before.
"Huh, you weirdo," murmured Dusk softly as he pushed Cavil's body away from him.
Surprisingly instead of away Cavil even gripped tightly both wrists of Dusk who was about to push him. Dusk who got the pressure from Cavil's hand grip could only groan in pain.
"Ugh, let go of me." grumbled Dusk as he shook both of his locked arms.
" ... "
"What do you want?" tanya Dusk was annoyed when every time she wanted to fight her wrist was getting clasped tightly.
"Be quiet and calm."
"Huh, what?"
Dusk looked increasingly confused as Cavil continued to stare at him sharply without even loosening his grasp.
"Don't even think of using your magic on me, it's completely useless" Cavil exclaimed as he looked at Dusk ready to cast a spell.
"Damn it,"
"What exactly do you want?" ask the two for a second time.
" ... "
But as usual Cavil just kept quiet and kept staring at him coldly. Cavil's gaze made Dusk even more annoyed. He wanted to tell Lily to make Cavil paralyzed for a moment but Lily's answer was unexpected.
"Miss, my magic is in the lock."
"Huh, what? How come?"
"I also don't know Miss but for sure she's using an anti-magic device right now."
"Damn."
The inner link was severed when Cavil began to draw his face closer to Dusk.
"Who are you really?" cavil asked sharply at every word.
"Who are you that dares to make such a strange illusion?" continued Cavil with strong emphasis at the end of his sentence.
The twilight that got the question could only freeze silently. Dusk was completely unaware if the incident earlier this afternoon made it so difficult now.
"Other times I have to be careful in using my powers,"
Dusk did not answer Cavil's question at all. He just kept silent while looking straight at those black eyes.
"What do you mean, I... Ugh."
The words of Dusk came to a halt as his wrist continued to be pressed down by Cavil.
"Never try to lie to me," exclaimed Cavil sharply when he knew that Dusk was playing with him at this time.
"Stop this, you're hurting me," murmured Dusk as he began to feel a sense of pain on both of his wrists.
"If you keep pressing it then my hand can break" continued Dusk with a painful facial expression.
"Don't lie."
"I'm not lying."
"You always look weak, but I know you're very strong."
" ... "
"Never look pathetic again in front of me, because it's no use."
"You, damn it."
"Well, that's funny" Cavil sneered as he looked at the ferocious face of Dusk that looked ready to pounce on him at any moment.
"Hey, I'll tell you if I don't lie now, it really hurts and if you hold it tight then my wrist will break later," exclaim Dusk still with sharp resistance.
"Then you will have to answer what I have asked you before."
" ... "
"Who are you and what are your goals for my sister? I know that you haven't been in this house in the first place but why are you spreading rumors that you've been hiding here all this time?"
" ... "
"My answer, don't you want to be free? Why are you using my sister like that huh?" Cavil continued to ask without caring about the pain that Dusk suffered.
Dusk who knew that Cavil was indeed from the beginning already suspected him could only sigh deeply.
"Fuck you,"
"Can you take my wrist off first?" tanya Dusk was upset.
Dusk felt that at this moment his bones were fluctuating to immediately shatter.
"Don't I tell you if you want to get out then answer all my questions."
The stubborn Cavil did not want to let go of the Twilight wrist easily.
"Do I have to hit him until he faints and then runs away" murmured Dusk in his heart still with a flat face.
"Miss, I can make her faint if you want," exclaimed Ristia as if knowing what her heart was.
"Huh, you better not. I'm afraid that he'll realize more and more that I'm really strong."
"But Miss..."
The Dusk conversation with Ristia came to a halt as Cavil flicked his finger in front of Dusk.
"What are you thinking? Trying to run away by tricking me with your face?"
" ... "
"Don't I tell you to answer? Why are you silent like a statue so," taunted Cavil still with a look of love.
"Huh, I'm tired. I thought if going to the park could make me calm but actually,"
twilight Grunt while glancing at the face of Cavil who was still loyal with his cold gaze.
"This stone man could possibly understand,"
"All right, all right," cried Dusk as Cavil unceasingly stared at him.
"I, I think you already know who I really am so I'm not going to extend this but before that..."
Dusk glanced down where both of his wrists were locked.
"Can't you take this off? I'm not going anywhere either."
"I still need this residence to escape from them." continued Dusk in his heart.
Five minutes later Cavil removed Dusk's wrist after thinking of all the possibilities ahead.
"Huh, it's been a long time that he's been thinking about this. Strange base," grumbled at Dusk as Cavil began to release his hand.
"Then tell me your reason" said Cavil still staring at Dusk who was now stroking his wrists reddened by his own actions.
"Ugh, did you see this? If you keep holding it then my wrist will break" twilight squeaked as the red circle on her wrist began to turn blue.
Cavil who was originally looking at her flat now began to stare coldly at the attitude of Dusk who was complaining to her.
"Alright, I will tell you," cried Dusk when he realized that Cavil was now looking at him coldly.
"It's so annoying, huh,"
"So, you know, it's not that after that they're looking for me. My point is that after that, not only are allies, even enemies, eyeing my dying life."
" ... "
"Previously Muna had said that she had a secret place where not all eyes could see her and that place was protected by magic. His position was also so close to the Black Flores Forest that it would be difficult for others to find him," exclaimed Dusk who now made both of Cavil's eyebrows become one, he looked like he was thinking of something.
"Because of you,"
At first Dusk thought to tell the truth, but if so then Cavil will be more suspicious and continue to investigate. Therefore Dusk used Muna's training ground for his reason this time.
"Because of my condition like that it would be very easy for them to immediately kill me so I decided to keep my current position a secret to anyone."
" ... "
"Even because it was close to the Black Flores Forest, I told my two personal servants to look for medicinal herbs there and after my condition began to improve, I decided to meet Muna as the beginning of all this," explained Dusk who made Cavil look a little trusting.
"Why don't you go see Luna first, you could have asked the princess of this kingdom for help, right?"
"It could be so, but my situation is also related to Dira who incidentally is a royal princess. Although he is a Consort's son, it will still be very difficult for me to fight his followers. Moreover, Luna's extremely excited attitude every time we met it could make the enemy suspicious. While Muna is a quiet figure, so she will take good care of it until the condition of my body is completely recovered."
"It is true, Luna is always excited if it relates to her favorite," Cavil said unconsciously agreeing with the argument of Dusk.
Cavil also knows very well how Luna is really because Luna has long been friends with her sister.
"I've told you everything and now you know it's not the reason I'm with Muna, not that I want to take advantage of her but that's what made this happen" said Dusk as Cavil began to lower his guard.
"I hope you understand my reasoning so that there is no further misunderstanding between us" continued Dusk with a stoic expression.
"Well, fine for now you can I'm free" Cavil said as he stepped out of the garden.
"But you have to remember that I still can't trust you completely and you still haven't answered my first question" Cavil continued before he completely disappeared from the park.
"For now? Hahahaha, you're so funny Cavil."
Dusk repeated the sentence previously spoken Cavil. He hated the man so much and hoped to kill the man if he could.
"To be honest I didn't lie if it was the circumstances that made me use them," continued Dusk when he saw Dian who began to approach him while carrying a tray containing snacks and tea.
"Where have you been?" tanya Dusk was curious because it had been more than 30 minutes Dian did not return after he went to take a snack.
"Sorry Miss, I was lost before," Dian shrieked with a disjointed breath just like the person who had just finished running.
"Missed?"
"Yes Miss, I can't find this park for a moment" Dian replied honestly.
Dusk again frowned. He knew if the location of this place is not far from the main kitchen because the distance is only 5 minutes if walking.
"How could he be lost?"
Dusk then recalled about the incident a moment before when Cavil came to him.
"There's something strange" murmured Dusk softly.
"Huh, what Miss?" dian asked after hearing a faint voice from Dusk.
"No, it's nothing."
"really?"
"Yes, then let's go back to the room because it's late at night" continued Dusk as he stepped away from the park along with Dian behind him.
"How did this happen? Is Cavil a magic user? It's a little strange because as far as I know the Winter family only gave birth to knights and since long ago they never had the slightest magic power,"
Dusk kept thinking about all the possibilities that happened to him because of Cavil. He had no idea that Winter's descendants also had witch blood flowing in them.
"Is it possible that Cavil is different from the others?"
Dusk was casually sitting on the sofa that was right in front of the window of his room. He recalled Cavil's figure and his physical strength was different from Muna and Mina.
"Is he really that strong?" murmured at Dusk while looking out the window of the room.
"Who do you mean 'strong' Miss?"
"Nobody and Dian now you can get out" exclaimed Dusk who was answered with a nod of his head by Dian.
"I have to investigate,"
Dusk then picked up the pen and paper that was inside his desk drawer. He wrote a letter giving details of the information he wanted to get. Dusk also did not forget to tell his subordinates to look for the man behind Ira, Sarah's personal servant.
"I'm going to get Morreti to investigate this."
