My Heart only Beats for You

Yesseca muttered to herself, "Don't trust anyone."

Tremaine added, "Yes, don't trust anyone, except for me! You can't trust anyone but me."

Yesseca was quiet.

She found everything that Tremaine had said was nonsense.

Tremaine looked at her deeply. "Remember, no one else is loyal to you but me. So I'm the only one you can trust."

Yesseca couldn't help but refute Tremaine's logic. She said, "That's nonsense, you know? My sister and brother-in-law care about me too!"

"No matter how well they treat you, they will never be as loyal to you as I am."

Yesseca sneered. "You're talking as though you're the holiest person in the world."

The more time she spent with Tremaine, the more she realized how much he liked to boast.

Tremaine stared at Yesseca, his deep black eyes reflected Yesseca's body. He spoke in a deep and magnetic voice, "Yesseca, of course I'm not. I'm not a good person, but my love for you is real." Yesseca sneered at Tremaine and his narcissism but when she heard him say that, she found herself speechless.

She quickly looked away.

Oh no.

She had been glaring fearlessly at Tremaine earlier.

How could this be...

She had suddenly felt embarrased.

Fortunately, Tremaine didn't continue this conversation with Yesseca. He told her to go to bed as he still had a lot of things to do that night. He might have to stay in the study for the entire night. Yesseca obediently returned to her bedroom.

After sitting in her bedroom for twenty minutes, Yesseca then snuck out.

She walked all over the Quartley Palace until she finally found the soldier she was looking for. She asked him to take her to see Ruth.

Everyone in the Quartley Palace knew how important Yesseca was to Tremaine.

So, without informing Tremaine, the soldier took Yesseca to the room they had locked Ruth in.
