Enchanted Nightfall: Falling for Destiny

From the moment Alexander laid eyes on Quintessa earlier today, only a little over an hour has passed. Yet, for him, it felt like seasons had come and gone. Deep down, he harbored a hope that what transpired between Quintessa and Tyrone was merely one-sided, from Tyrone's end. He clung to the belief that Quintessa was unwilling.

But now, Quintessa had driven a dagger straight through his heart with her actions.

Tyrone was well aware that Quintessa was using him as a pawn, but in this scenario, he was willing. If being a pawn meant fending off a strong rival for her affection, he was more than ready. Even if Quintessa hadn't made a move, Tyrone harbored this intention, determined to make Alexander back off for good.

After releasing Tyrone, Quintessa turned to Alexander and said, "I want fame; I want to be the hottest actress in the country, who could stand on the highest award platforms. Obviously you can't give me what I want,, but he can. Don't try to find me or understand me anymore. We can't be friends." "Let alone lovers." she added silently to herself.

Tyrone wrapped his arm around Quintessa's waist and said to Alexander, "We'll be taking off. See ya. Tell Uncle and Aunt I said goodbye; since my mom's feeling under the weather, we're heading out."

As Tyrone and Quintessa turned to leave, Alexander called out, "Quintessa."

But Quintessa simply said, "Go back to Serenitia."

Watching Tyrone lead Quintessa away, both dressed in matching black outfits, they seemed so in sync, like a couple made for each other.

To the fading figures in the night, he whispered, "But I was willing
