39: His day in court
*Lefu*
I am led into a large throne room and the doors are closed behind me.
The castle is officially a museum, but inside the historical exhibitions is the Matelli clan's headquarters. It is here, I am to retire when my age no longer matches my appearance. In the past, we could move to a new land immediately and take over the place from one of the others. But now it is impossible not to get ones picture in one or other media, so you have to retreat here, and get an anonymous identity until you can safely appear on the surface again somewhere else in the world.
I am sorry to have to leave my clubs, but Celine will find someone among the royals who are worthy enough to take them over. She has taken over more and more lately and is accountable for part

*Luca* "Good morning”. I stop when hearing Martin's overly playful tone of voice. "Morning ? It's dinner now". I mumble. “Why are you in such an annoyingly good mood ?" "I had a good long run last night". Martin finds a mug with a lot of coffee spots. "Where is the little nerd ?” "Somewhere outside with Linus". I stare at my uncle, who takes a sip of his coffee. When did I last see him drinking coffee ? "How did it go with him last night ?" “Same as yesterday. He was about to sm

*Luca*I put effort into every gallop and let the rage propel my body forward. I have made a mess, yes, but had they needed to wade in it ? I snarl and slap after a defenseless branch that hangs in the way. The thigh-thick branch breaks off right at the trunk, but I continue the wild sprint preoccupied with my inner angry debate.What the hell is it now with Martin ? The happy grin, which is chronically smeared all over his face, is about to make me vomit: Can the man not understand how dangerous it can potentially become ? An emotion creeps through the diaphragm, then,the sight of my uncle's face and the nauseating praise he had uttered about the red-haired witch brings back memories.Jealousy. For that is exactly how I had had it with Soleil i

*Lefu*How long can this take ?I glance back at the antique Venetian clock, which adorns the office's large desk. The Council has been talking for an hour. How difficult can it be for them to decide ?After my elegant exit, I had been led back to this office upstairs. I can not go anywhere, for beside the two lackeys who has more or less been glued to my ass since I landed in Italy, four moremassive vamp-troopers have joined them.Luckily, they are so mirror-bright that they have not confiscated my mobile.While I sit and wait for

*Lefu*"Good news, gentlemen !" I clap my hands as I come up in the hall. “We're going for a pub crawl! Shall we see who can eat the most Italians ?”The six lackeys glare hesitantly at each other.“I am a free man! Do you need to ask the boss for permission first ?” I wave my arms resignedly. "Okay then ! Then stay here if you must be such a bore”.“Signor Pusscat. A moment !" stammers one of them."It's okay, Ciro, Signor Pusscat will escort me. Drive the car forward”. Lyndsey McNeil comes up from the basement and walks straight towards me without heeding the lackeys. “My Italia

*Lefu* I slowly wake up from the intoxication. We can not have driven far, because we are still in Turin. "What the hell happened there ?" I have a hard time focusing. My whole body still sings with joy, and it throbs insistently in the groin. “This is the taste of fear of death and extreme pain, laddy. That's great, right ?” Lyndsey briefly meets my gaze before being seduced again by Francesca's lush lips. "But it is forbidden". I force my eyes away from the tempting sight and fix them on the cow, who is staring terrified back. &

*Soleil*“Does it really have to rock that much ?” I pull the big winter coat closer around me. I am sitting outside on the deck of the ferry because I had gotten the brilliant idea that some fresh air might suppress seasickness. But no, despite the cold paralyzing my cheeks, my stomach still threatens to sacrifice the toast I had managed to squeeze down inside the cafeteria.“It's autumn, Pips, if I do not whip up a little wave, then things would first become suspicious. Moreover, it is just as much the lady in the lake whipping up a mood, Tjalfe laughs."The lady in the lake ?"“You have met the giant over the wind and seen a lot of fire that a certain person can con

*Soleil*We drive to one of the smaller towns a bit outside Liverpool. It has gotten dark when I point out my uncle and aunt's house, and Marta pulls into the side."She's home, and so is her mother". Siri says after scanning the house. “We go in asplanned”.The situation has to be the same as I had experienced when the witches had come to my birthday and had told me about the calling. Here, however, it is my aunt who opens the door when I ring.“Hi Soleil. What are you doing up here ?” She does not manage to say more, then her eyes become blurred and she has forgotten to see me at all.

*Soleil*The next day, I feel battered from sitting in the car for so many hours. Even though I had gone straight to bed, I am not at all ready to wake up when the cell phone alarm rings.I get up mechanically, take a shower, put on my clothes and go to school. It strikes me again how hard this double life eats at me. How am I ever going to make a normal everyday life work when I am constantly under pressure as a witch ?It is impossible to take the social studies teacher seriously when she is preaching market economics and free trade.
