"How's this possible?" Sebastian asked Lydia, his gaze fixed on the vampire lord."He's not him, this is his twin, Linus."The big vampire's brows furrowed, "you've met my twin?""In a not so pleasant way. We're not here to cause you any harm, we simply need a place to hide."Linus let out a sarcastic laugh, "and why would the great emperor of Jerash need lowly me to offer me a place to hide?"Sebastian gazed at him until Linus' eyes expressed his shocked realization."My brother turned you?" He scoffed, "impossible. How did he get to lay his hands on you? Emperor Sebastian with a vast number of soldiers at his fingertips.""I only just got crowned, you can spare me the sarcasm."Linus' nostrils flared."Very well, you can all return to your duties," he said to his followers and they went away, one after the other, after sparing long looks at them."Follow me," he said to Sebastian."Respect," Aurora cut in, taking Sebastian's hand, "emperor Sebastian, your honor."Linus shot her an i

Aurora suddenly stumbled and slipped from her high position up the tunnels. Sebastian was quick to catch her."Merciful Zeus, Aurora, you almost caused me an early death," he sighed, setting her on her feet."Apologies," she muttered, holding unto him. She looked up at the height she was and the long distance to the ground."You don't seem fine," he kissed her hair."I fear something bad has happened to Linus and Maximus," she muttered."How do you know that?""I do not, I… I just feel it. My heart isn't at ease."Sebastian pushed up her face and inspected it. Beads of sweat ran down her chin and her eyes were unsteady. He still didn't understand how she got her new powers of mind control. She could control anything and everything, living and non living, even causing her body to levitate."Then we must go out to look for them," he pronounced, tsking her hand and leading her back into the tunnels."But," she hesitated, "what if it is your brother?"He looked at her, "perhaps it's time

"Mother," Aurora's eyes watered, her features miserable."My lady," Luna called, pointing behind her and she turned back to Sebastian who was terribly pale and ashy.She swiped a hand over her eyes, for ing herself not to cry."Bastian, you need to feed," she whispered, rolling up her sleeves and offering him her hand.He groaned, shuffling away from her. His eyes were bloodshot and his fangs out, he looked about ready to kill anything within sight."Do not fight any more, Bastian, you don't have to. Drink." She stretched out her smooth creamy skin to him. He shut his eyes tightly, his claws digging into his skin and drawing blood."Aurora, stop," he forced out in great agony."Animal blood won't work this time, Bastian, you know it. You want it, you need it, have it."She placed her hand directly against his nostrils. He shook his head wildly, scurrying back and hitting the wall. She followed, offering her wrist to his sharpened fangs. This time, he bit in sharply with a loud growl.

Thaddeus marched out of the dungeon and up into the main palace. Corpses upon corpses of dead Arab soldiers he had been scared into cowardice by. He knew the fight was a lost one and so he made no effort to fight but was it really Sebastian's little wife that did so?Getting to the throne room, he met Sebastian finishing off an Arab soldier with a stab of his claws."Good one, brother, seems you're one of the good blood suckers," he spoke, folding his arms behind him, his fingertips grazing his sword.Sebastian let go of the dead soldier, his nose picking up a familiar scent, his vision travelled and what he saw made his blood boil. He shut his eyes, calming himself and turned to his brother with a stern face."Where's Justus?" "Somewhere," Thaddeus shrugged, taking slow steps around."And my wife?"Thaddeus smiled, "I should thank you, really, she is a feisty one. Saved the day while I hid like the coward I am in the dungeons.""Where's she?"He feigned ignorance, "ran off somewhere

"Whatever happened?" She queried, bewildered. Her hands ran over his face, mesmerized."You happened," he smiled at her."What?""After I my close court with death and you saved me with you blood, I never noticed the effect it had since I avoided the sun completely," he paused, kissing her hand, "but once, over a month ago, I had to fight off enemies that tried to conquer us and the battle lasted into dawn. The sun shown down and we fled and I thought I wouldn't make it, some of us didn't but then I noticed that the I wasn't cursed with the sum any more. I could walk freely and bask in it's glory,"Her eyes were wide. She looked up at the sun and back at him."That's… that's…" she shook her head, still speechless.He nuzzled her hand, "I decided I had to get to the bottom of that miracle and so I travelled to see a clairvoyant which was why I was unable to see you for almost two months, my love and I apologize dearly. Finding a clairvoyant was harder than I thought as most of them wer
