Sinners

"No, you are free to visit this room." Cent was the first to reply, surprising both of them. El and Grace were sure that he would leave the decision to El. "Once everything ends, I will appoint you as the closest vassal of Marquis Welenshire and provide you with enough land and power so you never need to worry. And about your uncle.. I have already arranged a good show for you. It surprised Grace that he remembered it.

"I never thought I would be able to take revenge. Thank you, my lord." but she could feel El's eyes on her and it made her uneasy, unwanted. He cared for her but it was only because she had taken a step back. He did not love her.. He did not want her. She felt a strong rock burdening her chest and it made her unable to breath. 

The air seems to leave her lungs slowly and unbearably.
