The name of this man, who slapped my cheeks in a splendid corridor adorned with jewels, was my fiance, Grand Duke Damian Keane. He has Emerald-colored pupils and sharply raised eyes. His eyes, looking at me, as if I am not his fiancee, clearly showed a deep hostility towards me.

“Do you dare to harm Lilian?”

Like if I was wrong, my mouth tasted like blood and my cheeks swollen, but I didn’t care. The man in front of me, convinced that I did what I didn’t do, was once I believed to be my destiny. But not anymore. Because the only emotion that remained in me was no longer love or hate, but only annoyance. Without saying anything, I slowly turned my gaze to Lilian. The slender woman who Damian was hugging. Lilian, a woman with lovely long orange hair. Tears were growing in her big, beautiful, deep pink eyes. She, as beautiful as a picture, raised her mouth slightly and grabbed Damian’s arm and said.

“I’m fine, Damian.”

Lilian, who said so, shed an obvious ridicule at me. As if she were a winner. I looked at Lilian with an expressionless face and looked back at my fiance. And called his name.

“Damian.”

With pitch-black hair, slender nose, dazzling white skin, and shining emerald eyes, he was a handsome man by anyone’s eyes. Until a few years ago, there were days when I fell in love with this man at first sight and followed him. Of course, he never gave me such a glance. In order to get his attention, I used the healing powers that passed down generation to generation from my family, Count of Sercia, and healed the chronic disease he had suffered for a long time. Damian, seeing my abilities, has offered me a grand engagement. Though I knew he was going to use me, I foolishly accepted his offer. It was just a fiancee position, but I thought he would look at me at least once if I tried.

“Aren.”

When my fiance called me in a friendly voice, it was only the days he was hurt, but that’s the only moments I could touch his body. He put off marriage with excuses, but it was bearable until one day, he suddenly brought a woman named Lilian.

“Aren, heal this woman. It’s a request.”

As my fiance asked me, I used my healing powers to save a woman who was about to run out of breath.

“Here…?”

“Are you mindful?”

Damian was very happy when she opened her eyes when her eyes barely closed. After that, Damian’s interest naturally turned to Lilian. Well, I witnessed Damian and Lillian rolling in my bedroom, so she was actually the hostess of the duke’s house.

‘Ha…’

So, all my emotions disappeared. I lived with Damian at the duke’s residence for 3 years. What I realized through these three years, long if it’s long and short if it’s short, is that all of my efforts so far have been nothing but futile. Why did I realize it to late? No. In fact, I have known it for a long time. I just loved the man in front of me so much that I was trying to deny it with my eyes blurred. Damian. If your will…I will stop all of them.

“We are breaking up.”

“…What?”

Damian, who listened to me, looked stupid as if he couldn’t hear anything.

“Because the obstructor will get rid of this, let’s separate and live each other’s lives.”

“Aren!”

Damian became angry and shouted my name. His green eyes reflected myself. A platinum-haired woman with no feelings left. I gazed at myself in his eyes for a moment and then pulled out the engagement ring from my finger of my left hand. A diamond ring that I never took off after getting engaged. The ring that I believed was a sign of love. I threw it to the floor without any regret.

Ting-

The cold metal hit the floor and made a sharp sound. Damian came out with a shocked look and looks alternately between the engagement ring and Lilian was in his arms. Maybe I didn’t know how to say to broke the marriage?

“Well, this is a hindrance.”

I passed by the two who were frozen by my words. To be precise, I tried to overdo it.

“Aren!”

Damian grabbed my wrist as I was about to leave with a strong force.

“Breakup?! What this…Why are you suddenly doing that?”

“It is literally.”

“What?”

“There is no longer a stupid woman from the Sercia family who reluctantly loves you, Damian. So let’s breakup.”

I kindly recited him every single letter. Damian’s hand, grasping my wrist, faintly trembled, as if he didn’t know I would say this.

Pak-

I tried to escape the hellish place by striking his arm strong in the gap. To throw away the trash that I believed was love and to find my true life. But there was one thing I overlooked. Archduke Damian Keane Deers. That he, who was my fiance, was more crazy than I thought.

Phuck-

Something sharp flew behind my back and pierced my heart exactly. As I tried to leave the place, I looked at the blade in my heart.

“Ughl!”

In an unexpected surprise, my body was out of balance and staggered.

Full of shit!

I sat down on the spot, grabbing my chest. The last thing I saw in my increasingly distant consciousness was a man I once loved, with pitch-black hair, and emerald eyes.

“I thought she was a girl who listens well to the words.”

“Demia….”

“You can’t let other people use your abilities. Is not it? Aren?”

The day I groaned in pain at his feet, he looked down with a cold gaze. There were no emotions in those eyes. No, even with a knife in my heart, his face was infinitely dry. Ah, yes. You were this kind of person. Why did I foolishly loves human like you? You are worse than trash. If I go back to the past, I’ll never do that stupid thing again. Just as you have shredded my heart, so will I. I regretted that I loved him so much, and closed my heavy eyelids in a consciousness that was gradually fading.
