━━━ BOTH WALKS OUTSIDE THE HALL.
Antares and Coventina walk together outside the hall, their steps not making a sound. Antares kept his eyes on Coventina as they strolled outside the hall, unable to take his eyes off her beauty.

The wind blew through her hair, giving it an ethereal look. Her aura seemed
like a galaxy of roses, emitting an overwhelming fragrance and radiance that captivated Antares.

Antares was taken aback by Coventina's aura and wanted to get closer. He slowly approached her until they were walking side-by-side. As the wind continued to blow, the scent of roses filled the air. Antares breathed in deeply and savored every moment of being near Coventina.

He could feel the passion and energy radiating from her every pore, as if it were seeping out and creating a warm, cozy embrace around them. Antares felt as if he were floating on air, surrounded by the beauty of the stars and the warmth of a rose garden.

Antares knew that Coventina was dangerous in many ways, but he was drawn to her. She was like a rose: beautiful yet dangerous, with a hint of blood. But Antares was willing to take the risk for a chance to be near her. He knew that when her petals fell and her thorns cut deep, it would be a pain worth enduring. For him, it would be a passion worth living.

He never fear danger, nor does he fear Death. As long as she stay near him, unharm that what matters because Antares would never hesitate to spill blood for her. A Black would always be a Black.

Antares was willing to do anything for his Coventina. He never feared danger or death, as long as she was safe and unharmed. In fact, he would gladly shed blood if it meant protecting her.

Antares was a Black, through and through, and he would never hesitate to do whatever it took to make Coventina happy, even if it meant making a few messes. A Black would always be a Black.

"Explain." Coventina turns around. Her eyes were like million of stars, grey with a hint of green. Yet her aura changed quickly. Because she was tired of Antares hiding secrets from her.

Coventina looked at Antares, her grey with a touch of green eyes piercing through him. "Explain." She seemed to be demanding, tired of Antares hiding secrets from her. But Antares knew that he couldn't hide anymore, that he needed to expose himself.

Antares was willing to reveal everything, to confess his deepest truths, because he knew that he had to, in order to stay with Coventina. But then again secrets are meant to remain mere secrets.

Until the right time come.

"I can't tell you how I met Aamon not can I tell you everything I hide from you," He tells her honestly. Antares lied everytimes, to his friends, to his family and to himself even to Coventina.

"Then what can you tell me?!" She asks, her tone loud and clear. "You and Aerys hides too many things from me!" She continued, her hands clenched tightly.

Antares looked down at Coventina, his eyes cold yet soft at the same time. In that moment, he placed his palm on the side of her neck, his touch sending a shiver down her spine.

For a second, he let the silence linger between the two of them as he gaze softly into her eyes. It was a powerful moment, one that left both of them breathless.

Even with their secrets, with their lies, there was a deep connection between the two of them. A connection that seemed impossible to break.

"I know you are angry at me for  hiding everything from you," Antares murmurs, his thumb caressing Coventina's neck.

"You have every right to hate me. I will take it all for you," he continues, his voice soft and tender. "Your pain, anger, hatred and happiness, because, my love, all that I care about is your safety─even if it means lying to you. I will do it."

Despite Coventina's anger and bitterness, her heart melted at Antares's tender words. She knew that he would always do anything for her and that his love was unconditional.

She also knew that he would always protect her, even if it meant sacrificing his own happiness.

"I just hate it! It as if everybody knows things about me that even I do not know, Antares!" Her voice carrying millions of emotions. "Everybody knows me but do I know myself? I don't.
Do you even trust me?" It was a hypocritical question, both knows it.

"Damn it, Goddess! Yes─I fucking trust you! I don't trust anybody, do you hear me? Nobody! But I do trust you." His grips tighten. "Even if you don't trust me or love me─which is stupid and a lie but I do trust you," He smirked. "Because no one matter to me except you. I could kill every single person in this world just for you." Her eyes widens. "Just give me order."

"If I tell you to kill everyone─including Draco, Delphina, and I mean everyone, would you truly?" she asks him.

"Yes," he replies immediately without hesitation or regret, her words giving him an excuse to commit his darkest fantasies. Antares would do anything for her, regardless of the consequences.
She realized the extent of his feelings and his willingness to kill for her. She also realized how much power she held over him.

"But if I tell you to give up on me, would you?" she raises a curious brow. Her eyes gleaming with intrigue.

"Jamais," he answers immediately and sharply, as if that was the answer she should never have needed to ask. He loosened his grip a little bit, keeping
her trapped against the wall as he continued. "Don't ever ask me that question again, because I'll never
give up on you─the world could collapse and you'd be all I care about."

Coventina grins at Antares's strong and fierce response. She guesses that she must have touched a deep, sensitive point inside of him that almost awakened his inner beast.

"Then I need you to answer two of my questions truthfully," she tells him fiercely. She looks at him as if she is demanding these answers from him but she knows that he's going to do anything for her.

"Go ahead, ma cherie," Anthares replies softly yet powerfully, keeping her trapped against the wall like a mouse, showing his power over her. He remains in control, keeping her at a distance while simultaneously not letting go of her.

"Tell me, did you meet Aamon before I met him?" His eyes narrow at her question but he doesn't ignore it either. he looks at her directly, clearly ready to answer truthfully.

"Yes," he responds briefly, quickly confirming her suspicions.

She's clearly taken aback by the first revelation and struggling to digest it before asking her second question. she stares at him directly, maintaining eye contact as she asks her question.

"Tell me why Aerys says that I am the reason you two hate each other." she looks at him, her face determined and resolute as she waits for an answer.

"Because she want to keep you away from me and I want to keep her away from you. She is a pest that have always stand in my way for so many years. Yet you seem to have gotten attach to her and it's really frustrating, mea dulcis dea."

He explains honestly but with some amount of bitterness and irritation, clearly still upset about their history with each other as well as the fact that Coventina have grown somewhat close to Aerys.

Coventina let out a sigh, the tension could be cut my a knife so Coventina decide to change subject and a smirk appears on her face. "Since you reply my question and that I am in a good mood─ how about you try to catch me?"

Curious, Antares tilts his head. He clearly had her pin but his eyes widens as soon as Coventina passed under his arms quickly escaping ftom the wall and him. "Playful little goddess." He smiles and watch her run out of Hogwards.

"What Black? Can't keep up with a girl?" She taunts him, but as soon as Antares runs after her. Rain stars pouring and he couldn't contain his happiness when he heard the most beautiful laugher of his goddess.

Her dress were drenching because of the rain and it didn't stop her from playing in the hair like a little girl.
Rain was like her element, she never understand why she had the fire necklace as her element. But she didn't
mind it, because the fire necklace was like Antares.

"Come on Black! The others might
come to fetch us soon!" She hurries Antares while dancing in the hair. Her movement was elegant just like herself.
Antares smirks, his eyes following all of her movement without any mistake before laughing outloud.

It was one of those moment where he wishes that time would just stop and let them be themselves.
