Days passed and Lily didn't receive any sign of approval about her request, She had came back the next day and didn't find the letter where she placed it, She wondered if the person she wanted it to arrive to had read it or not, Days went by and she didn't receive a response, It made her start to lose hope.

Lily looked at the castle one last time before she left, But then she suddenly saw someone standing there by the tree, Not far away from her. It was the man from that day, The one who attacked her.

She started to walk towards that with fear in her heart, She had realized that man is not human since that day But is he, That is something she wanted to know.

"I mean no harm, I only came here to ask for help." Lily said as she approached that man slowly, Walking towards him.

She couldn't see his face as it was covered with a mask and she wondered why.

"I know." The man suddenly replied, surprising her. His tone was calm, Unlike that day.

Lily stopped walking when she was three steps away from that man. He was tall and big and she was tiny compared to him. He could kill her and she wouldn't be able to fight him.

Adonis took a close look at the girl face features, Her green like forest eyes stood out making it hard for anyone to stop looking into them, She had a heart-shaped face making her look adorable, Her blonde hair was tied up in the back of her head giving him a full view of her slender neck, Which looked appealing to bit into it.

"Are you from here?" He heard her trembling voice ask.

Adonis somehow didn't feel the same feeling he had that day, Angry and irritated, But instead, it was replaced with curiosity.

"I am." Adonis replied and watched how she took a step closer to him when she heard his answer.

Lily carefully took a step closer to the masked man and asked another question.

"Do you live in that castle?"

Adonis chuckled hearing her question, But he decided to not answer it.

"That day, Did I hurt you badly?" He asked, wanting to distract her.

Lily looked at him surprised by his question, Was he concerned about her? She wondered.

"No, no, It wasn't that bad, It only caused a bruise." She replied lying.

She still suffers from the pain. Having been hit against the tree caused an injury in her back that she still suffers from until now but she tries to hide it not wanting her mother to not notice.

Adonis' eyes narrowed hearing her answer, She was lying, He could tell by the way she was walking she was suffering from an injury.
