Alex repeatedly hit the back of his head against the wall. It seemed the time was slowing down for him. His eyes were burning due to the lack of sleep.
'Amelie refused to forgive me. What about my parents? Did they not appeal the King? And, Zander, is he not going to save me this time?' Alex thought, feeling frustrated and scary.
Bringing his hand to his head, he clutched on his hair. "I don't want to die," he murmured. He began feeling what it would feel like to go near your death.

"You should have made a good use of the chance you were given then," Gabriel spoke. His dark violet eyes landed on Alex, who immediately looked at him. "You did underestimate me when I grant you the second chance. You should have known that Amelie can't be harmed in my presence," he stated.
Alex simply stared at him in terror. Words didn't slip out of his mouth.
