LucianoIt had been a week after and somehow we hadn't gotten any closer to finding out where they were. They had hidden so well that none of my men had any clue where they were even after they had followed some of their messengers. It was annoying and for now I couldn't make any moves myself without dad knowing. I had to keep using Lucien and Tristan. There was a knock on my door, “Come in" I answered, my eyes glued to the door. I knew it was Tristan before he walked in. “Prince, there's been a slight development. One of their commanders was spotted" he announced and it felt like Christmas had come much earlier.I sat up straight, my eyes bright, “Where and are we sure it was him?’ I asked to make sure. He nodded, "Yes Prince but then the issue with that is the fact that he disappeared not long after that, we don't know how or where” he explained. I smirked, it didn't matter how or where, if they had spotted him somewhere I would find the truth, all I needed was some time. "Whe
DamonWe started on our way, heading to his house immediately. I began to tell Luca about how practice went and what we did. It was funny, his reaction. “I don't know man, that sounds interesting as hell, is he really as bad as they said he was?" Luca asked, looking at me briefly before turning back to the road. He was right, it wasn't as bad as I had expected, funny enough it was interesting and I liked it more than I should. Mr Zeke might have simply had a bad rep. “But in a way, he actually is too strict, it's tiring sometimes" I answered him, it was half and half actually, I wasn't so sure what to say actually. We continued talking while on our way. He told me about his training and it seemed they were currently in the fighting phase. It sounded interesting but yeah, not very much my thing. We arrived at his house a few minutes later and we went straight to his room. “How about your parents?" I asked, looking around the quiet house. "They both went out earlier, I don't know
DamonI headed straight to Mr Zeke's studio once I was ready, training would begin in a few minutes and I didn't want to be late. Luca had sent a text so I opened it to check before going in, “Don't forget our plans tonight" he said. I sent back a text, telling him that I hadn't and we were still on. It wasn't as if I had something important I was doing that I could miss it for. Inside, Mariam was already there waiting. I wondered how she was always early, especially as she didn't stay around here. Unlike me who lived here but wasn't as punctual. I sat down beside her, “Hey, you're early as usual" I told her as I sat down. She made a face, "I have to leave much earlier for this, it's frustrating but well, this is where I've found myself” she said then smiled. We continued speaking for a while, with her telling me about the new job she had gotten that paid much better than the old one and how it was easier to work there. I felt happy for her, even though the whole thing didn't sou
DamonIt had been almost a week and everything else had been normal except of course my life couldn't be completely normal, I had two problems. The first was that I hadn't spoken to Rhys since the day after our date. He had been texting and we had been talking regularly but then it suddenly stopped. I had no idea why and in my need not to seem desperate, I had reduced my texting but now I was worried. It was unlike him to simply ignore me for so long, I had to hope he wasn't in an accident or anything. Maybe he just had issues to resolve in his family. The second was that in all this time, I hadn't seen or heard from Luciano. It wasn't supposed to be a problem to me, the first days I was happy he had let me be but now it was more than that. Nobody in or around school had seen or heard from him at all, I had set down my pride to text him and while it had been sent, it wasn't delivered and no reply came of course. It was all so strange, bizarre. Yes, they had fights amongst themsel
Luciano There was a knock on my door, I knew who it was before it opened. Father had come to see me. I wouldn't have been able to guess why if I hadn't been the one to spur the chain of events that led to this event. He walked in, not bothering to wait for my call to come in. He pulled the chair opposite me and sat down, a look of doom on his face. “If no one knows it, I do. Why did you do it?" He asked me, his eyes not leaving mine. That was one thing I hated about how he treated me, like I was a kid that couldn't make a decision, I was a century old, I was capable of decisions that wouldn't put us in doom. I shrugged nonchalantly, “Because it was the right one. They had challenged us for too long and with no consequences, if we had made no move, it would have continued and our rule would have been undermined” I could see that father already knew this, he was only trying to keep the merciful king's front which I hated. He was far from merciful, he had wiped out thousands who ha
Damon“The menu can be complicated sometimes, if you need any help, you can ask me" Rhys told me when he saw the look of confusion on my face. He was right, it was complicated because so much of it was written in french and although I knew some french, I didn't know a lot of what was written here. I handed it to him, pointing at a dish that sounded appetizing, “I think I want that" I said. He nodded, “Ah, one of their best dishes. You have a great eye" he then turned to the waitress and gave his order. The waitress left and it was just both of us alone again. He turned to me, “So Damon, I don't really know much about you, tell me something. Anything, I want to listen" he said to me. I thought for a while, I didn't know if I should tell him that I belonged to the hunter family, would it scare him off or weird him out?I decided to just talk about my childhood and how growing up an only child was. I didn't have any need to lie about that and I didn't want to start whatever this was
