~Zayn's POV~
After I had tried countless times, calling, texting, and hoping, without a single reply from Evric, I gave up. I did nothing all day except sit in the room, stare blankly from the balcony, and drown myself in a few drinks. My mind kept circling the same questions: Why is he angry? What did I do wrong? Why won't he just tell me?
Just as I was lost in my thoughts, a knock came at the door. One of Evric's workers stood there with a large box in his hands.
"Sir, this is a package from Mr. Evric. He asked me to deliver it to you," he said politely.
I opened the door wider and let him drop it inside. The box was huge, and for a moment, I didn't want to touch it. Maybe he had sent it before all of this coldness started. Maybe it wasn't even meant for me. But curiosity got the better of me, and I found myself cutting it open.
