Darren's eyes flashed with malice as he suddenly raised his hand, thrusting it toward Aveline's face.

Darkness enveloped the night, broken only by a sliver of moonlight. As the dagger rose, its surface caught the pale glow, flashing a brief, ominous glimmer. Aveline's heart suddenly tightened, and she shouted, "Even if I die, you should at least let me know why!"

Darren paused, gave a cold smile, and viciously grabbed Aveline's hair. "Look at me, take a good look at my face. Do you really not remember me?"
