Amelia's POV

"If you want to lecture them, can you go and do it somewhere else. You're disturbing my leisure. At least give me some peace, before I leave," said Evelyn as she rolled her eyes at us.

And I couldn't express how hurt I was at the moment.

I could feel from her expressions that she was utterly repulsed by our presence... maybe even disgusted.

And it's hurting deep inside of me... as if someone was forcibly taking out my heart with bare hands.

I couldn't believe this was happening. The little sister whom I had bowed to protect and love no matter was about to leave me... And I'm not sure if we could ever meet again.

If... If I could see her ever again.

Evelyn is my little sister. The little baby whom I had secretly took in my arms when she was left unattended by mother Winter and her maids.

And instead of crying, baby Evelyn had only smiled at me. I could still remember that day when I had sneaked into mother's room to see the baby. And in an instant, I had fallen in love with her.

I still remembered those days when baby Evelyn used to follow me (A/N: Amelia skipped the part 'us' as she considered that Evelyn only wanted to play with her not her Brothers who are too 'stupid') to play with.

And now that we have grown up, now only did I got to know that these brothers of mine are not only stupid but so cruel... Or else how could they spread the rumour about a five year old kid?

I wanted to scream so much to tell Evelyn that she didn't need to leave. She could still do the things she wanted and play with me (A/N: Amelia took Evelyn's childish schemes as a child's play who's throwing an immature tantrum). I would protect her but no one knows better than me that I couldn't even protect myself. So how could I protect her?

But... looking at her repulsion to call me "Sister" sweetly like before, I feel like I failed as her sister.

So, now I could only watch her leaving with mother from the side as her maids and knights kept on filling their carriages with luggages.

And that pretty smile of hers... Why is that smile so pretty when leaving this house? Is she that relief to leave this place, leave me?

Did she never love... like me? Just a little bit?

And even mother...!

She used to say she loves me... Was that a lie? She never loved me... isn't it?

Both of them didn't!

So they could leave so happily. Right?!

But I still couldn't come to hate them. 'Cause I know they were never happy here.

And it's all because of these three men at my side... Father, Brother Aiden and Brother Alexen.

But then... my eyes widened in shock as my eyes fell on their faces...

Are... Are my brothers crying?

I couldn't help but wipe away my tears as I rubbed my eyes thinking they are playing tricks! But even after wiping them twice, I still saw their tears...

Ahh? Is this for real?

Alexen's POV

.
I know I was wrong. But I was young back then. So I did whatever my mind was thinking right. But I changed later, no?

I tried to make everything right.

But how would I know that things would turn for the worst instead. But I swear I never meant to hurt Evelyn so much. I was just enraged that she kept on throwing mud at Amelia.

But... But... I never wanted her to leave... leave this place and see this house as a disgusting thing.

I had done many wrong things and now I am regretting it, I wanted to tell her... for a long time. But I never got the chance to.

And now she's leaving. Leaving for good with her mother, just like how I wanted.

And it's breaking my heart into millions seeing her smile so happily. Was she that happy? Happy to Leave?

Maybe she was! After all, I only hurt her. And I guess, all the things went wrong in the royal palace, after all she completely changed from there. Only... If I could reverse the time... If Only... But there's no if.

My eyes were warming up as I remembered the scene where everything changed. All her love filled affections were replaced with fear and hatred.
