Return of the Crowned Heiress

Lucas was shoved with a force that sent his small body tumbling onto a pile of dirt and weeds. Luckily, the cushion of dirt softened his fall, so he wasn't hurt.

First, he lifted his head and shouted in shock, "Felicia!"

But down that slippery slope, there was no trace of Felicia's figure.

Shawn burst into wild laughter, clutching a small shard of porcelain he had dug out of the ground. Blood smeared the shard a trace left from when he had slashed Felicia earlier as she protected Lucas. Fate was truly on his side! It was the perfect timing, the perfect place, and the perfect setup!

If he failed this time, he would accept it. But it was clear that fate was smiling on him now!
