VI - Anne

Originally I hadn't planned on bringing Louis into this, with Edward and I but he was the only one of us who wasn't either an Incubus and Succubus. He was the only one who could lie and no one would question it. With the way we held this ball it would be easy for us to slip her away, especially with the amount of Incubi and Succubi, we had to sneak in to hide as servants.

When I went looking for her, I didn't expect that she would know who I was right away. Edward had only told us so much about the young girl, he met when she was still just a child. I was able to get her to join me outside, where Edward was waiting.

"Hello again, Beau." He said, removing his mask.

"Beverly." She said, with wide eyes before she hugged him in an unlady like manner.

Poor girl. What did Mills do to her?

"What is with the name Beverly?" I asked, with a frown.

"It was the town I was born in." Edward explained, as he wrapped a protective arm around her, once she moved to his side. "We have to go but we will see you aga-

"Again in 1667." Beau interrupted, with a weak smile. "Beverly and I must be going before Thomas finds out I am missing."

After the ball only a few stayed behind. One looked pissed, but guards escorted him out. That must have been Thomas Mills. I saw Louis and it pained me to know I would out live my mate.

Months later we went to war with my birth country and I used that time to feed and sleep, and speak with my brother. To make sure the House of Austria was still alive, well the ones who truly cared about the people. These were going to be a long few wars.
