Why Did You Give Him That Drug?

The old master summoned the spy he had asked to follow them to the meeting, he had asked Zeru, Yero's junior brother, who was also smart, and skilled too. They were all the bodyguards of Old master. 

Even though none has been assigned to obey Lucian fully yet, they all have kept off from him, they fear him more than they fear the old man. As for the old master's aspect, they value their jobs more. 

'' How did it go?'' he asked Zeru, he was in a black notch lapel suit and black polarized shades with a black polish shoe to complete his outfit.

'' Old master, Lucian has been invited to the company's night event where he has to introduce his wife to the group'' he fold his hands behind him, he stood straight as he spoke, with a chivalrous smile on his lips.

'' uhm_ very good '' he smiled roguishly, nodding his head. '' how did Lucian behave? , and Anna with him? I hope he gave a good impression to the board members?'' he asked.

'' Yes, old master, he kept it cool''  Old master had a smile devoid of warmth and humor plastered on his face, and with the wave of his hands, he demised him.

Lucian and Anna walked side by side without saying a word to each other. Anna kept her eyes lowered, focused on the ground as she has memories flooding her mind, the newspaper she read in the office, kept her thinking. It was a competition of music it was sad she was not going to attend, this has been her biggest dream, and in a blink of her, it was shattered.

'' Lucian_'' he heard the old master call him, he was on the last step to permeating the room. Anna turned, he saw Lucian going back downstairs to meet his grandpa. Rolling his wheelchair forward.

'' See me in my room, and I mean now'' he ordered, Yero assisted him in pushing his wheelchair, leading him to the room, Lucian followed behind them, gawking at him with an awful look. 

Yero pushed the chair into the room, and then shut it behind them. He stood like a statue as soon he was on the spot, where the old man asked him to stop. '' Yero, please leave us for a while'' he waved a hand at him.

'' What is it now, old man?'' his voice was hoarse as if he was speaking from his diaphragm, he stood manly with a straight face, and his athletic hands folded at his back. '' I called to know your mind, I hope you ain't thinking of doing anything stupid? You have an event tonight, make sure everything goes well, do not make any mistakes'' he warned.

'' Event? How would you know there is an event tonight?'' he asked, narrowing his amber eyes at the other man sitting in the dark, a spotlight shining in the middle of the room.

The looks on his face proved Lucian right. '' You had a spy following us, old man?'' it was not a question, it was a fierce statement.

'' Do the rightful, you won't  be a victim of the trap Lucian, just get the company back to the family'' he shot a hard glare at him.

Whenever he mentioned being the CEO of the company, it brings the memories of his parents he tries to forget, Lucian never wants to, not even to remember the face of his mom nor his dad. He had smashed all the pictures of his parents to pieces, if possible he would change his surname and never should he be called by his father's name again.

He ran his hands through his hair, his brain was messing up as he recalled what happened to his parents, and how he witnessed their death '' No! I can't do this, I can't breathe'' he began feeling dizzy his eyes were roaming all over the room, he was going insane, the memories were blasting his head up, and especially the sound of the cry, it was turning his world upside down.

'' No grandpa, please! I can't do this, I'm going insane grandpa, I don't want to be involved'' he fell to his knees, begging at the old's man feet, the memories and pictures of his parents were haunting his soul!

'' I'm sorry grandson, you have no choice, you have to bring back the company'' he said and excluded out of the room, Lucian sat up on the ground crying, he never want to ever cry again, especially not to the memories of his parents, he hate being weak! But he can't help it, he needs to get rid of their memories!

Lucian ran to his secret room in the house, it was also his study room, wherever he needed to study, or to stay away from people, where it was impossible to locate  him. It was always his hiding place, whenever his Nany was playing a hide and seek game with him, she would never find him, and when she gets tired of searching, she would scream '' I give up''! 

His Nany was the one who made his childhood a wee bit fun, his mom would never agree to play with him, she was always busy with files and documents, even cooking his favourite dish she never did that, he never tasted his mom food, not for once.

Anna had been in the room alone for the past two hours, baffled why she hasn't seen Lucian, since he was called by the old man. It was pretty much getting dark and Lucian was not coming to his room, there was no sign. She needed to ask him some questions, and now he wasnnowhere to be found.

She pulled down her gown, and slides into her normal short velvet gown, she slide  her legs into slippers underneath her bed.

Anna made attempt to look for Lucian, but there was no one available in the alley, she hurried up to the old master room, but Lucian was not there. ''Where is Lucian?'' she asked herself, fidgeting her hands across her phone.

She couldn't find Lucian anywhere, she was fed up with her futile research, she twisted her legs turning back in the direction, to her room, when she began hearing a loud sound of glasses smashing on the floor. '' Lucian? That is Lucian's voice'' she swiftly followed the direction of the sound.

Their eyes bugged out, when she saw him crying on the floor, covering his ears as if there was some noise he detested so much, meanwhile apart from the noise of the broken glasses coming from the room, there was no other noise.

Fear gripped Anna, she ran into the room and grabbed his hands from behind. '' Lucian what are you doing! You would hurt yourself'' she screamed trying to curb him from behind, but he was saying some words which were mysterious to her hearing, Lucian was not himself, this is not the brave and strong Lucian she has seen, something was wrong.

'' Lucian what is it? What is going on?''  She jerk him, screaming for help?  Nany Alisa, the maid that has been taking care of him for the past 18 years, appeared in the room, injecting him with some drugs, that seem to drastically called him down. Lucian immediately got drowsy and went into a deep slumber, hugging Anna tightly. Anna stood still for a second, and she widened her eyes, at the way Lucian was hugging her tightly.

'' What is wrong with him, why did you give him that drugs?'' She asked the middle-aged woman, worried and against her injecting him with a drug. ''What if something happens to him?'' she argued. 

Alisa smiled bitterly, shaking her head, it's not easy to calm him down Anna, he was been suffering like that since he lost his parents'' she said. '' What could happen to his parents, how come he was tormenting him so much like that?''  Anna frowned feeling uneasy at the way, he had seen Lucian behave.

'' I can't tell you to now Anna, come on let's take him to his room'' she said, raising one of his hands to her neck, heading to their manor.
