Chapter 19- The Puzzle

{Y/N's POV}

I ran up to my bedroom, tears beginning to fill up my eyes until my vision was completely hazy. I held them back as best I could, but allowed a few tears of anger to slip from my eyelids. I ran past Kaylee in the halls and in the brief moment her eyes caught sight of me, she knew something was wrong. She began to run after me and called my name a few times in the process. Once I arrived at my room, I didn't bother to close the door in my anger and fear that Zane had probably figured out who I am by now. I shouldn't have hinted to him about my current situation. When I heard Kaylee come into my room, shutting the door behind her, I began to let it all out, pacing back and forth in the middle of my room. Kaylee sat down and listened to my rant.

Y/N: I don't know what to do, Kaylee. He's right on the edge of knowing the complete truth. And it's my fault. I let my actions get out of hand and I just about blurted it out loud!

Kaylee: What did you tell him?

I stopped and looked at Kaylee, my eyes full of worry.

Y/N: I told him... That I did actually love him, and that I couldn't. Considering who I am to him. Then he claimed that I was talking in riddles and I said: Then put the pieces together and come find me when you've solved the puzzle... And don't forget your sword.

Kaylee looked at me, her hand covering her mouth in surprise. After a while she removed her hand, revealing her trembling lip. She walked over to me, trying to regain her composure, and placed her hands on my arms.

Kaylee: Y/N, he may be smart, but he won't figure out something like that.

Y/N: I've already ignited the spark. What should I do, Kaylee?

As I said that, I slipped off my wig with one hand, revealing, once again, my (h/l) (h/c) hair. Kaylee then pulled me into a hug and held me tight.

Y/N: I'm not safe here. I need to leave.

Kaylee: But how? This place is crawling with guards at night. Especially when the Lord and Lady are out.

Kaylee released me from her grasp and stood in front of me, her right hand still on my shoulder.

Y/N: I don't know, but I need to leave tonight. And, if you can, I'd like you to help me.

Kaylee: But what if I get caught helping Zane's wife-to-be escape?

Y/N: Once I'm home, I'll help you. I have more power there than I do here. Not to mention the fact I'm Lord Garte's brother's adopted daughter. The Ro'Meave family will listen to anything I have to say.

Kaylee: ... Y/N, are you sure you want to do this? If Zane finds out you're alive then-

Y/N: I'll be fine. Now, please... Help me out of O'Khasis...

Kaylee: ... Alright

{Zane's POV}

What... What happened? She just up and... Left... As if it were nothing. But what she said echoed through my mind like a broken record player...

Y/N: ... Zane... I appreciate all of this but... Considering the fact that you don't know who I am, I just can't bring myself to love you expressively. The reason I'm here... The reason I'm not back at home... With my family... The reason you first found me with your brother...

Zane: I see... You love him, don't you?

Y/N: No! I don't love him. He was just helping me, that's all. He was saving me.

Zane: S-Saving you?! From who?!

Y/N: ...

Zane: Y/N, if you're in danger I need to know. I want to help you.

Y/N: I am in danger, Zane. I'm in danger when I'm here, in O'Khasis. I'm in danger when I'm in the castle. I'm in danger when I'm with your family. I'm in danger when I'm with you...

Zane: I-I don't... I don't understand...

Y/N: And I don't expect you to... Nor do I want you to. For me to tell you my story... It's basically a death wish.

Zane: ...

Y/N: Zane, if I'm to be honest with myself for a moment, I do love you. I just... Can't.

Zane: Why not?!

Y/N: I just can't, Zane. Not with what you've done to me, what I've done to you...

Zane: What you've done to me? You've made me feel something I've never felt before, Y/N! For the first time in my life, I actually feel... Happy! And what have I done to you?

Y/N: Do you not hear yourself right now, Zane?!

Zane: Y/N, you're talking in riddles and it's not like you.

Y/N: (Sighs) Then put the pieces together and come find me when you've solved the puzzle. And don't forget your sword.

What did she mean by a death wish? I want her to trust me. I want her to feel comfortable around me. But... She did say she loved me. And that's what matters, right? ... No. That's not all that matters. What matters is her happiness. And if that means letting her go... Then so be it.

I look back at the castle and see Y/N's bedroom window. She was pacing back and forth in front of it. Suddenly, Kaylee walked into view, trying to calm Y/N down, I suppose. I wonder what's going on... Wait... What? Y/N... She... She just... Pulled her hair... Off her head?

Realization struck me then and there.

Zane: The hair... The name... The sudden outbursts... It all makes sense now... But how is this possible?!

I was afraid to admit it, but it was the only thing that made sense...

Y/N Fyre...





Zane: ... Is alive...
