2 colors appear at single cross reference

well i have been trying to deal with a cross ref format,

the code goes like
See <Cross Reference>Section<$chapnum> <$paratext><Default ¶ Font>
the issue is that <Cross Reference> character tag gives a blue color at the rest cross,
but first word, "See" that i need to be in black keeps on turning into a magenta one,

i have tried entering an extra tag after it, or changing spaces or whatever,

but update keeps on returning them to magenta and then the blue,
what is going on?

this has become a headache for a day at least,,,
