    [I fucken messed up!!!!]


    The youth was a little panicked in his heart. But even if he was panicked, he showed nothing on his face.


    With the same smile he continued "Hmm... Though I am not like this generally...." The youth looked towards thedy before continuing "But this is your fault."


    The dark blue haireddy raised her eyebrow while asking "My fault?" Even though the tone sound confused, her eyes were crystal clear.


    The youth nodded his head gently and said "If you were not so beautiful, I would not have panicked and made such a stupid mistake."


    "Heh." Thedy let out a chucke as if she found something interesting before saying "Even though the line is somewhat cliched, it did not sound bad."


    The musicians were still ying the gentle yet sophisticated music.


    The youth leaned towards thedy a little before asking "So did that score some points?"


    The bartender put on a regr drink before the youth.


    Thedy smirked. She also leaned forward a little and said "It did. I am finding you interesting."


    The ck haired youth took the wine ss in his hand.


    Thedy continued "Rosalyn."


    He looked towards thedy. Thedy continued "That is my name."


    The young man nodded his head and before he could open his mouth Rosalyn said "And you are Kylo."


    And this time it was him who raise his eyebrows. Though he resumed his moments to normal like nothing happened but that did not escape from thedy''s eyes.


    Rosalyn did not mind it and continued "Kylo De.... hmmm..." Thedy frowned a bit trying to remember Kylo''sst name.


    "Just Kylo will do." Kylo replied with a smile.


    (Author Note:- Thest name will be revealed inter chapters. The reason behind thest name and everything, but not in Vol 1....)


    Rosalyn looked at Kylo. It was a known fact that only people of status can have theirst name recognised by the world.


    People of status did not mean those people had to be powerful. No a high level guard could be stronger than a trash prince of the same empire but this did not mean the guard would have a surname.


    And not just any people can give themselves surnames. Because that meant the person giving himself surname would be seen as equal to those people of statuses.


    And if they do not like it you would be hunted by them. That is why having surnames was something ''upper ss'' people take pride upon.


    And if someone really forgot thest name of a person, it would be seen as a great insult, equivalent to not acknowledging their existence, their status.


    That is why Rosalyn was surprised seeing Kylo not fuming over this matter.


    Kylo kept his mouth shut before taking a sip from his wine ss. Rosalyn said "Well, it is not like you particrly hid yourself~"


    Kylo had a smile on his face. A smile that tookdy''s heart for a moment.


    Kylo opened his mouth after a long time "You are amazing. Even though I was traveling so openly in front of so many people no one recognised me."


    Rosalyn finished taking a sip from her ss before saying "Well I know, I mean I am not only just a beautifuldy after all. I am so smart, intelligent and strong."


    The narcissism stunned Kylo for a second. Rosalyn did not mind Kylo''s reaction. She gave a charming smile which this time took Kylo''s heart for a moment before she continued


    "Well there are not many who is this handsome, is a ck haired cultivator on this continent and has a sword hanging on his waist."


    After a pause she continued, "Or maybe they recognised you but did not dare to confront you..."


    Kylo nodded his head resting his chin on his hand before asking "So why are you still talking with me?"


    Rosalyn asked "What?" But even this time the situation was same as earlier. Even though she sounded confused her eyes did not show any of it which meant she knew what Kylo would be asking.


    And Kylo knew it. So he just smiled and said "Well, people are after me for bounties. Talking with me is pretty dangerous you know?"


    Rosalyn smirked and said "If you can walk so openly, what''s there for me to fear."


    And to this reply, Kylo just chuckled.


    "So?" Rosalyn smiled and asked.


    The mages were still continuing to chatter while the music yed.


    "What?" Kylo asked.


    "Was this all arranged or was it really your mistake?" Rosalyn still had a charming smile on her face.


    For a moment Kylo was stunned. He thought his well nned moves were caught. He was nervous but he still asked "What?"


    She then asked whether he really forgot to ask politely if the seat was empty or if he nned everything just to say that cliched line.


    And after hearing this Kylo let out a sigh of relief in his heart. Kylo finished his drink and asked with a simr smile "What do you think?"


    She shook her head and said nothing. By now the music changed to a melody type.


    After a few minutes of silence Kylo looked at the silent girl sitting beside him and asked with a slight smile on his face


    "So... What is it, that is worrying mdy?"


    Kylo gestured to the bartender with his hand asking him to fill the ss.


    Rosalyn looked at him and asked "Why do you think that something is worrying me?"


    "Hmmmm....Rather than worrying should I say something is hurting you?" Kylo looked straight into her eyes.


    Rosalyn flinched for a moment. Those eyes seemed like they would see through her soul. It was scary yet pleasant in its own way.


    The bartender put 2 more sses before them and walked away.


    Kylo still had the same smile on his face. He took one of the ss and clinked his ss against hers before speaking "Sometimes it is better to let out your worries than to keep it within yourself."


    "Why?" Rosalyn asked a little absent mindedly.


    "So that it can let me help you and lessen your pain. After all I want to see your real smile." Kylo said with a striking smile on his face.


    Rosalyn''s heart shook. She was flustered internally. She even avoided eye contact with Kylo and focused on the ss that clinked against Kylo''s.


    It was only for a second before she recovered... at least on the surface. After all she was also a woman of position and not just some little girl.


    There was silence for a long time. After 15 or so minutes, by the time shepletely drank the ss of wine she took a deep breath and said


    "It will take a long time."


    Kylo just nodded his head.


    This time it was Rosalyn who asked the bartender for the beer. Yes she asked for beer.


    "You see, I am someone from a pretty big family. I won''t give you any details, just listen to me." Kylo was about to ask but stopped when she said thest sentence.


    "Since I was born in a big family, I knew my responsibilities. We are not like males who have to carry the future of the family with them.


    We, the females, are married to some other big families to extend the n''swork connections. And it was the same with me.


    I am not sad about it since I also benefited from being in a big family. I got all the resources needed for cultivation, the background needed to enter sects and since I am not a male I did not had much pressure on me.


    But even if there was no pressure on me I managed to cultivate above my peers. Or maybe it was because I had no pressure that I managed to cultivate faster than my siblings and cousins.


    I was talented, I was intelligent, I was beautiful. I was loved by everyone around me. Basically I was leading a happy satisfactory life.


    But those things do notst long. It soon came my time. My time for arranged marriage.


    My only wish was to meet the guy before marrying him. And my family agreed.


    The guy was good looking, from a big background, gentle but ambitious, popr with females, in short everything a girl can dream for."


    By this time she had a nostalgic expression on her face.


    "I was d since I did not get a trashy guy like many other girls. We started going on dates, even though he was busy he made himself free for me.


    It took two years before our marriage took ce. Everything was okay and in these two years Ipletely fell in love with him."


    It was at that time she took a deep breath. Her face was already a little red by now.


    "But it was after marriage things started changing."
