LUCIEN REMUS’S CASTLELUCIEN’S POVLucien stretched his arms wide as the maids quickly dressed him up, in the expensive outfit he had personally chosen.Today, he was going to make his presence known to his enemies. After enough pondering, planning and even sending out messages to announce his incoming visit, he was finally grabbing his horse by the reins and doing as he pleased.Everything was already prepared, from the guard and entourage that would follow him to that despicable clan, to the speech he had duly memorized, Lucien knew that he couldn’t flop at all. He was going to give his all tonight, and worse still establish his reputation as a stark enemy and threat to the throne of Keanu Kingdom. Lucien didn’t care what Adolph would think of him, or if he would be publicly scorned for what he was about to do… It was just a surprise visit, and he would accept whatever came his way.Clearing his throat as the maid standing in front of him fastened a hook, Lucien stared down the fl
ADOLPH“There are so many budgets for the upcoming festival, and we are short on fund Adolph. How are we to go about this issue?” Raking his hands through his hair, Adolph stood up from his seat and began to pace about. “Do we have to go through this tonight? It’s late already and we can talk about it tomorrow.” Connor chimed in, and as if reading his mind Adolph bobbed his head in support, directing his gaze at his uncle as he mumbled, “Yes. We will talk about this tomorrow. Summon the elders, and we’ll know what to do about it. It’s late already and I want to…”The door to the throne room burst open, and in walked some guards, all of them with different facial expressions saying nothing, saying nothing to explain why they had barged in.“What’s going on?” Adolph asked bluntly, but he didn’t need to bother much about a reply, because in walked the answer to his question in human form.Dressed in a black magnificent robe, hair slicked back, feets walking briskly with hands pleated be
LUCIEN’S POVLucien furiously wiped at his half bloodied face, his gaze shooting out to the maid who had toppled over in the room.Her entrance has been quite dramatic, causing some kind of commotion that Lucien just didn’t care about. For all he knew, the servants here could be weak limbed and pathetic lots he didn’t care at all. What bothered him heavily, was the humiliation he had just faced, and his fangs already out gnawed at his gum tightly. Lucien could taste blood, his eyes glowing bright red as he glanced back at Adolph Caesar who was now seated in his throne, a hand clutching his chest. Lucien felt like walking up to him, grabbing him by the collar and wringing his neck out of his head, but he held himself back from performing any disastrous act. It wouldn’t bode out well for him at all, and even though he was prepared to fight now, his men were not all that fit to go into war at all. Dragging his gaze from Adolph, Lucien once again stared at the maid who had her hair bent
ADOLPHAdolph watched the mysterious maid, slink out of the room albeit secretly and he cursed bitterly.“What did you say Adolph? Shouldn’t I call for help of any kind?” Fenris asked, hands still on his shoulder holding him tightly, and Adolph started to shrug him off.Ever since the maid had entered, causing a brief interruption that had thrown everyone in the room into chaos, Adolph felt like something in him had changed.The minute he had set his eyes on her, those magical orbs ensnaring him, he had felt a sharp pain shoot up to his chest which made him stumble back to his seat, clutching his heart as he tried to gain his bearings.He just couldn’t stop looking at her, and at the same time his heart kept thumping wildly pain shooting through every spine in his chest, but surprisingly the minute she left he felt instant relief all over him.His eyes shaking in disbelief, he muttered to no one in particular, “I am fine.”“Are you sure?” This time it was Connor asking him the said que
"He will fall in love with her, but she will hate him. She would be the lowlest of beings but he would crave her touch. She is his antidote, cure, that he can never have. He will be a blasphemy to his generation, she would be the one to redeem him. He is the cursed one."Thunder striked as the witch lifted the little boy she held in her arms."Is there nothing we can do, why will he be cursed."The witch laughed hysterically."My dear, there's nothing that can be done, unless he meets her.""Unless he meets who?" The mother of the little boy asked as she huddled in the arms of her husband.She was scared, she wanted nothing to happen to her little boy.The witch said nothing, just kept on chanting words in Latin, raising the crying baby boy up and down as she directed him straight at the top of the gods."Ma, did you

TEN YEARS LATER NEW YORK CITY TATIANA CEASER (Adolph's Mother and Luna and Queen of the Keanu Clan). "Adolph, come here." Tatiana called out to her son who was already giving her mischievous looks. It was evident he wanted to go out and play with his friends, but Tatiana just couldn't allow it. It was late already, and in the little neighborhood they lived in New York, reports of kidnaps and other social ills happening in the city made it difficult for her to even allow her only son stay out late.

AGATHA"Greetings Agatha, greetings great one." "Step back. step back, take of your shoes before you get in here." Agatha commanded the young lady and man, who had started to come into her tent, with their shoes. "Sorry ma." The young lady said and bowing her head as her and her husband did as Agatha commanded. After they had removed their shoes outside, bowing their heads they walked into the tent slowly, and the female servant standing dressed in white, brought two low stools for them to seat in. "What brings you here?" Agatha asked and coughing slightly again. "Good day great one, I am Micheal Hati and here..." The young man stopped as Agatha raised her hands up silencing them. "I know who you both are. No need to begin with the introductions. You don't need to start telling me your names, you are supposed to know that
