Odd Eye's

part 55's. The untrue denial

... ⁇ ODDEYE...

After all the crying, long curses full of frustration did not necessarily subside Viviana's anger. He could not even roam freely in the palace for fear of meeting Xavier. The man was truly a scourge for him.

He even had nightmares every night. And that makes him more sensitive.

"Queen

"Get out!" Viviana's voice was countered by resignation. These few days that woman is so easily ignited. Falentin even saw him groaning and shouting like a madman in his dreams. Not even her husband could calm her.

The only time she looked so calm was after the visit of her mother, Viscountess Lances. Maybe there's something the Queen can't tell her husband she can listen to.

Falentin took a breath as soon as he saw the figure of lady Annette. He had to receive Viviana's screams again.

"Greetings Queen-

"I SAID GET OUT! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING?"

"Lady Annette came to see you, Your Grace." The name that is spoken is like a cold water. Removing Hanaya from his condition.

Annette, what should she tell him? Dissolved in the aftermath made him forget everything. She still has Annette to explain.

"Annette

"You can get out" said Annette coldly. He could see the anger raging in the woman's netra.

Hanaya was not in a position to defend himself.

"So tell me why this has to happen to Rozetta? You were there, I heard it. You stood there without trying to defend. So is he really guilty? What makes you so sure?"

"Annette

"You know Rozetta. And I'm sure you understand what he's like. Rozetta has never been interested in things like this. How is that possible?"

"Listen

"YOU MUST LISTEN!" Annette's impact is blaring. His chest rumbled, after the tears that were dripping. For the first time, the innocent figure of Annette disappeared. Her innocent appearance was distorted with emotion, overflowing in her physical appearance.

"BEFORE BECOMING QUEEN, YOU WERE HER BEST FRIEND! YOU KNEW ROZETTA FIRST! HE EVEN HELPED YOU ACHIEVE VICTORY EASILY!"

"I'M STUPID AND SLOW BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I DON'T UNDERSTAND MY COUSIN! ROZETTA HELPED YOU DELIBERATELY ACT LIKE THAT!"

"SO WHY ARE YOU ACTING SO HARD? SACRIFICING ROZETTA ISN'T ENOUGH FOR YOU! YOU EVEN PULL-OUT

"I NEVER SACRIFICED IT!"

"Huh, not sacrificing? What after seeking compassion by feigning shock, do you even want to dodge now?" Annette's sarcasm was piercing right somewhere in her heart. Hanaya forgot to breathe.

"I'm not-i

"Let me guess you're keeping your mouth shut because you don't want your name tainted, do you?"

"No! Mom-it's not like that"

Jerky Hanaya roaring. Her net is blushing tainted with tears.

Even if he denies it, maybe it's true. Even at the end of his life, Hanaya did not think of Rozetta. He only thinks about himself.

He even feared the possibility that his name would be tainted.

"Even your attitude acknowledges it" Annette's cynicism pierced her ears. Hanaya froze in the ice prison the girl's gaze.

"Annette

"I'm sorry for my rude attitude, Your Majesty. If I offend you punish me" Annette said with a sneer on her face "Did you think just because of your status I would kneel before you? You must be crazy"

"Annette

"From now on we're no longer friends - I don't want to be as stupid as Rozetta" Annette's final voice filled the room leaving a deep, lonely atmosphere.

Hanaya chuckled softly, as if laughing at herself.

So this is the real irony in Viviana's life - Hanaya is not the controller of everything.

***

"He looks chaotic" Viscountess' voice echoed, Xavier looked at the woman coldly.

"You must have hit him hard. It was so sad, I even had to prevent my husband from knowing"

There was no answer, while blue netra Xavier stared at the old woman emotionlessly. It was as if this conversation was not interesting at all.

Putting down the cup, the Viscountess said "I didn't expect you to be this cruel. Looks like Viviana's gonna be traumatized by you"

Closing his eyes, Xavier's emotionless voice came out "If it wasn't like that, he would never have come to me"

Viviana though so sturdy, the woman was in fact so stubborn. Once he wants something, he won't back down until he gets it.

The smile knots strewn across Viscountess' lips "That's how my daughter is. So what makes you so interested in him? Don't say anything cliche especially about feelings"

Everyone allied with Xavier knew how the young man kept his taste in Viviana. Even if he doesn't acknowledge that, or acts as a good brother - Viviana is still the most interesting thing in his eyes.

A man who loves can be blinded by anything. Just like women, they would do anything to get the woman - even if it had to destroy her. It was not impossible for Xavier to aim like that. Despite having known him for a long time, Viscountess was unable to read Xavier's way of thinking. He's too gloomy and too fuzzy to be on the trail. But for the sake of the smoothness of everything - doesn't he have to get clarity?

A faint smile crossed Xavier's lips. The weakness is Viviana. And he won't pretend about it. Therefore the people around him were afraid that he would forget everything, hunting the woman in madness. In fact, even above all the intense feelings, there was one of the most basic things that attracted Xavier. He's the most important pawn in his plan. That fact made her feel sober, like an alarm in her subconscious. Although it is difficult to control the desire when looking at the woman.

Viviana was very interesting in the eyes from the beginning. He and all his imperfections are the most interesting things Xavier encounters.

"With the same eyes and life I could have sworn, even if my feelings were so deep - Viviana would never have been the biggest obstacle." Viscountess was shocked when the young man took the oath of his life.

"You don't have to do that"

"Unfortunately the Viscountess doubt will remain, right?" That is the truth, so Xavier swore. The vow is so sacred in utopia and its pronunciation will continue to compel it to comply with it.

Everyone around you needs reassurance. And no matter how much he explained-the doubts over each of his decisions will continue to exist. He needs to show a faith that displays his sincerity.

Even though it felt so great, his desires were much stronger.

Xavier moved so far for Javier's end and not for Viviana's gain.

He understood the consequences he would face if Xavier intended to get Viviana - he would end up losing everything. That woman or her greatest desire. Because Xavier has seen so many great men who have lost everything just from chasing one woman.

A stroke of luck to him, that woman was the most important pawn in his plan.

Viviana has value, in her tucked into something that Xavier really appreciates. Principles in his life. Viviana has a fair exchange rate.

She is not only the woman Xavier loves but the most important pawn in his plans.
