一女战三老外一女战三黑人

"What do you mean by that?" I asked her, fearing that what I thought as a slight possibility was going to be true.

"You know the answer, Lilly," she said looking up to see the floating clouds, "You have nothing to fear while we are here to protect you. I don’t know if I should call it a gift or a bane what you possess because it is how you view it."

"Ace is dead which already know and few of his soul fragments are lingering around but there are others. Other souls who’ll try to haunt you, it might either be from the past or the present. I know everything looks like a setup, making Luke and you sleep in the same room but it’s for precaution. As part of his blood runs in your veins, the parasitic souls will stay away. His presence will soothe your soul and after you told me about your dream I think we did the right thing, Luke isn’t so bad," she said looking at me and I looked at Julie who was chasing a butterfly.

"He could have imprisoned Ace instead of killing him," I said after few seconds.

"I understand you’re grieving for him Lilly but would you rather have him kill you? He had given himself over to the dark side and once you do that there’s no turning back. It’s either kill or be killed. Few things you need to let go. Moreover, you are Luke’s fiancé. He’ll always protect you," she said seriously. With being beautiful Elise was calm and insightful when matters were spoken.

"I’ll do that," I sighed thinking about it deeply.

"The day we heard about Luke linking your blood with his and that he would take the throne once he was married to you, we were beyond shock to hear it. I mean he had many women before due to which we didn’t take it up seriously," she said with a smile. I had no idea what she was smiling about, "And then my husband, Edmond told me that Luke was keeping a tab on you," she said like it was no big deal.

"What?!" I asked shocked. I knew he came to see me once in a while but keeping tab? She let out a chuckle looking at my reaction.

"Yeah, I know. We had the same reaction as there was this one time where he slept with a woman but he kept a tab on what you did in school. Now I feel he should have kept a tab outside too to prevent the things that happened. When I confronted him, his answer was vague."

"Dad told he liked me since he saw me," I said and saw her rub her chin. When I woke up this morning, I was the only one in the room. He had left without a word or a message.

"I’m not sure how to place my words, Lilly," she said as her nose crinkled, "I’m not going to sugar coat you Luke is a difficult character but with all the years I have known him deep down he has a good heart. Like really deep. Something triggered inside him when you both met for him to make the bond."

"If he liked me he wouldn’t have slept," I stated.

"I understand your point of view, Lilly and there’s a reason behind it but it’s not my place to tell. Luke will tell when he wants to," she said with her angel like smile and then got up, "Did you get a tour to the mansion?" she asked me changing the topic.

"Not yet. I was wondering when I would get to explore," I said shaking my head.

"Come on then," she said pulling me towards the mansion, "Julie sweetheart, leave the butterfly alone. You are going to fall," she said with a frown.

Going through the main door, she took me through the spiral stairs. Most of the passages were narrow compared to the ground floor. She took me to a particular side of the floor to show family portraits and a few drawings made by her on the wall. The designs were amazing. Even though the mansion was big it was kept clean and away from dust. In the process, I found out that Elise was married to Edmond for nearly a decade. Edmond was Luke’s and Canrart’s cousin.

At one of the wall, I saw something scribbled. It was like a child’s writing, stepping in closer to have a better view. It read,

Lucifer I hate you with an angry face.

"It’s my son’s doing," Elise said coming to stand next to me, "My son, Paul wrote it for Luke."

"Why did he write so?" I asked her but Julie answered it appearing from nowhere.

"Paul broke uncle Luke’s cell phone and uncle Luke broke the video game wire to make it even," she said with her childlike voice with a huge grin like it was a good thing, "Paul should have let me play," she said and I laughed bending down to pull her cheek. She was adorable as a teddy bear.

"Didn’t your uncle Luke see this?" I asked her and she nodded.

"Heather thought it was cute and made sure it was kept just like that when Luke was going to repaint it," Elise replied, "It was a good day."

"Your family sounds fun," I said smiling and saw her shake her head.

"Our family," she corrected me, "Give it a chance, trust me you won’t regret it."

"Okay," I whispered.
