The world went suddenly still around Lucian and the only thing he could hear was his name echoing through the silence. He wasn't sure if he heard it right or if it was all in his head. How could she know his name? His real name.

Slowly he turned around, his heart beating erratically inside his chest. Hazel still held onto his arm and her eyes swirled with so many emotions and unanswered questions. Lucian had his own unanswered questions. Who was this woman and how did she know his name?

"My name is Alexander." Lucian tried to correct her but she shook her head. She didn't believe him.

"No...no..." a tear fell down her cheek "you are Lucian...my husband."

Husband? Lucian laughed nervously.

"Alright, it's enough." He said pulling his arm away and turning around to leave but Hazel stopped him again by suddenly wrapping her arm around his waist from behind.

Lucian froze in place shocked by her action. "Please don't leave me again." she cried. "I know it's you, why did you save me otherwise? Why did you kiss me?"

Why? The question lingered in the air and as he couldn't figure out why he acted that way he slowly became angry.

"You know I have been waiting for you. I prayed everyday that you would come back so don't tell me you didn't come back for me."

Lucian felt suddenly strange. All this time he had wanted to come back here and even though he convinced himself that it was because he wanted revenge deep down he knew there was something else. Something he was afraid to discover and this woman...she terrified him.

Tearing himself forcefully away from her "Listen, I am not your husband and I know nothing of what you are talking about. I would have helped anyone in your situation but if you don't want any help you are free to go. "

Hazel looked at him more closely as if trying to figure him out. "I don't know why you are doing this but you are hurting me. Please stop."

The way she begged him to stop making his heart ache. He shook his head getting angrier for the way she made him feel. She was nothing to him, he didn't care about her. Turning his back he left without a word.

On his way back to the room his anger only increased and by the time he reached the room he was boiling over. Grabbing a chair he threw it across the room and then he took his anger out on every single piece of furniture.

When there was nothing else to break he sat down on the floor feeling defeated. He had been angry before but never this much and he was not the type to break or throw things. Seeing this side of himself appalled him. What was happening to him? Why was acting this way.

Jade suddenly barged into the room and was about to say something when she lay eyes on the mess he made. She drew in a sharp breath "Not again."

Clearly Alexander liked to make a mess as well.

"Your highness...what happened this time?" She asked.

When he didn't reply she ordered some maids to clean up. Meanwhile Lucian calmed down and tried to figure out how things turned this way. He felt though he knew nothing and understood nothing and he was too tired to try and figure it out on his own, so when everyone left he summoned Julian.

Julian appeared just like that, out of thin air. "Your highness." He bowed deeply.

Lucian wasn't sure what to ask him and he didn't trust him either.

"Julian?"

"Yes your highness?"

"Is it possible for someone to see through my disguise?"
