There days after the battle, Azrael was in his study when Adrian brought him the letter.
"Your Majesty. There's a letter from Valdris."
Azrael's heart, which had felt dead for three days, suddenly began to beat again.
"From her?"
"Yes."
Azrael immediately took the letter and broke the seal with trembling hands. He read it thrice.
"What does it say?" Adrian asked.
"She is coming here in three days to say goodbye. She is coming to the end of our relationship." He put the letter down. "She is coming to give us closure."
"What? How will you convince her to change her decision? What will you say?" Adrian asked in panic.
"I don't know. Is there anything left for me to say?" He chuckled.
"You could tell her how much you love her." Adrian suggested.
"She knows I love her. Love was never the problem. The problem is we love each other and still hurt each other."
"Then what will you do?"
