"Come with me." Darlington said to the butler and Barnaby followed the old man excitedly. He was happy. Finally, the stars have finally decided to shine on him. He would finally get his voice again.

Enough of everyone messing with him and treating him like he was nothing.

Though he was a little used to being mute. There were a lot of things he had avoided because he was mute. But having his voice back, was way better.

Darlington stared at his grandson one more time before walking away calmly. Osvaldo was right, he had been too angry that night and had said something he wasn’t meant to. If everything he heard was correct, Osvaldo has really caused trouble between four huge family in Owlsgrave.

He had destroyed their most priced possession. Nothing on earth could replace what he has destroyed.

They could wage war, but they dare not because it would be a lost battle before it even starts. Osvaldo has gained far more power than he already is, all there was on his mind right now was revenge.

"... So, I’m perfectly fine father. You have nothing to worry about." Penny said calmly after briefing her father for more than five minutes about how Osvaldo has been a good man to her.

Xavier studied her carefully, his grey eyes sharp. Then he leaned forward, his voice low but direct.

"Are you in love with him Penelope?"

Penny’s eyes widened. The words hit her harder than she expected, and for a moment she could only stare at her father. No one had ever asked her such a question before. No one had cared enough to. Slowly, her gaze dropped, her cheeks heating until they glowed pink and at that moment, Xavier knew he had lost his child.

Was she in love with Osvaldo?

The thought sent her stomach into a twist. She didn’t know what love was supposed to feel like... but...

The books she had read...

The movies she’s watched...

The words she’s heard...

Maybe her heart flutters every time his shadow passed near her.

Maybe her pulse always leapt when his golden eyes locked onto her, even when he said nothing at all.

Maybe her chest tightened strangely whenever his hand brushed against hers, even if it was by accident.

Maybe she couldn’t stop thinking about the way he kissed her or the numerous night she spends in his arms. Or how his deep voice dropped when he called her his "Penguin." Penny blushed harder at her thoughts.

Maybe she was addicted to the way his presence filled a room, chaotic yet protective, wild yet tethered to her alone.

Her lips parted slightly. She wanted to answer, but words tangled in her throat.

What if this dizzy feeling inside her chest really was love?

But she was too afraid to admit it. The last time she had let her heart love, it had broken her. She wanted to protect her heart from that dangerous thing called love, even though it was shattering her with each passing second.

Penny bit her lower lip softly, her lashes lowering. The corner of her mouth curved before she could stop it, a smile that was half-embarrassed, half-dreaming.

"I... I don’t know," she whispered, her voice shy.

"... If you love him or if it’s just a fling?" Xavier asked to see her lower her head even more. He was a sucker for love, he hated the idea of it, but he knew his child was gone.

His only regret was why he hadn’t arrived sooner to change her heart. It would find the highest sorcerer to destroy the spell of love from his child.

"If you do not love him, I have a better proposal for you." He sat on the bed spreading two hands to his side.

"What is it?" Penny finally looked up at him.

"I’ll take you fat away from this place and these people where you’ll love a better life and have more opportunities." Xavier said calmly.

Penny didn’t know what to say. She didn’t need the education, not when she was the country’s best scientist.
