บท 205: Ultimatum

What have you done? Leon lamented in an agonizing voice.

Ella's resolve slowly shattered as she watched Leon sink his clasped finger into his hair as though he wanted to pull out his brain.

She wanted to walk over to him and hug him. She wanted to tell him that it was okay to feel this amount of rage. She wanted to cuddle him in her arms and soothe him for the loss of his dad and Nana.

However, for some reason Ella couldn't explain, her legs remained glued to the floor. Her brain was acting in contrast to her mind. The only part of her body which decided to cooperate with her brain was her mouth.

She slowly bit down on her lips and said:

"My love, I'm sorry! I never meant to hurt you!"

Leon slowly looked up into her watery eyes and stared at her for almost three minutes. His contemptuous expression held only one word; 'betrayal'. All he saw was a guilty crying beautiful princess that had shot countless arrows into his heart.
