Noah pov

"What can I say! I am a genius when it comes to fencing. I can copy steps of my competitor just by looking at them" she replied proudly with a smirk but i know that she was lying. She was lying all this time. 

Her eyes were filled with fear when she was fighting. But then it suddenly turned cold and filled with bloodlust. She had enmity with the man she had fought with, but yet she talks to him so sweetly. 

I did not know why, but when she was fighting. I wanted to move and hug her and tell her that everything would be fine. That she was not alone. She made me remember the time when I had felt the same, when my mother had died from the cruel hands of the lady I used to call mother too. While my father just stayed there like a spectator!

He did not even move to stop his wife or looked at my mother twice, as if she was nothing to him. Ha! That lady gave him her life, her innocence and a son yet he did not spare a tear on her death!

That created the hatred in me but when i looked at the hate filled eyes of Abigail, her hatred felt much more than me. It clenched my heart and for a moment I felt trouble breathing. 

But why!?

She had a loving family, caring father, an overprotective brother. She did not know but that day when I tormented her on my page, it was a one day thing. I was not in a mood to torment her daily, yet her brother had come to me and threatened me. He was even ready to break all the rules and fight with me for her. 

Even after getting so much love and care, what had created hatred and void inside such a young girl!

"Would you keep staring at me or say something? And if there is nothing, would you leave my way?" I blinked and came out of my thoughts as I listened to her annoying voice.

"I would leave if you tell me the truth, i have asked you so many times, yet you did not reply or feed me lies" i replied bluntly but she just shook her head.

"I have told you but you did not trust me at all, and I can not give you explanations anytime. You have to trust me, that is all I can ask of you." she replied, shaking her head.

I stoked there silently as I did not know what to say to convince her! I didn\'t even know why I even cared! Why was I even noticing her so much! Haven\'t I decided to stay away from all the nobles and hate them all my life?!

She sighed as she looked at my worried and tensed face.

Noah, all these things have nothing to do with you. I am grateful for your timely help but you should not get too attached to all this." her voice was filled with loneliness and before i could analyze, my hands moved to her shoulder and patterned her.

  As if assuring her that everything would be fine. She did not need to worry. She was not alone.

But as if a switch had been pressed. She blinked and her lonesome eyes turned greedy.

"Noah, I forgot to ask you. How much gold coins did the royal highness pay?" Sometimes I really had a hard time following her lead.

"Well I sent a trusted friend there. I did not want to ruin my day by meeting and talking to royal nobles.

He passed me a bag but I did not open it to see how many coins it had. But by the weight I can tell it was not that heavy.`` I replied honestly. 

I had seen the confusion and doubts in the eyes of William. I could not meet him personally. In case, he would realise who i was! No! No one should know! This secret would die with me.

"Ehh. If that miser did not pay me enough, I would personally go and ask for a calculated amount. I thought he is famous for his extravagant life, that was the only reason I did not ask him for a fixed price." she started cursing the prince as if he was nothing  but a roadside loafer. 

I chuckled unconsciously looking at her brooding eyes. She really was fearless, and free of all the fakery aristocrats had.

"Do not laugh, come show me how much he had paid. I need to open a shop and pay a lot of bills from that money." all her anger towards the crown prince was poured over me as she started glaring at me. 

"Hey, it is not my mistake that he paid less, okay?" I replied, though I still felt amused by her behaviour. I was sure if she would ask, her father would give her keys of treasure in a heartbeat, yet she was here! Fighting and brooding over some coins.

I shook my head at her remarks. If one would not know, she would be taken as a gold digger. 

She started walking with hurried footsteps glaring at me for my slow speed and then opened the door of my quarters as if it belonged to them.

"Hey since you are not serving me anymore, you should return the key!" I forwards my hand to get the key but she puts it back in her pocket.

"It is for an emergency. It is not like there is something to steal in your quarter." she added nonchalantly.

"No, but you barge in anytime!" I replied as I still remember how casually she was standing when I last came out after taking a bath. My cheeks burnt even thinking about that incident, but I was sure there was not a single sign of embarrassment on her face.

"Ah.. you are blushing Noah!" she said with a chuckle.

"...."
