Eirwen POV

━━━━━ • ஜ • ❈ • ஜ • ━━━━━

After Eirwen's brother shuts the door close, I can finally rest my head on the couch. Resting my both soul and brain, it was already exhausted early in the morning till evening.

But at least, Little Vincent came.

I was rather glad that he came to visit, If it wasn't for him I might die from both exhaustion and heart attack.

I sighed out, Then suddenly I gazed at the top of the Ceiling lightly, everything I did was all in vain, I don't know if they said it was true that I might have ended up get thrown away in the so called snow deserted land where there's both Beast and danger waving at me, when I arrived.

"...Hayst...this wasn't in the book I read before."

" What book? " Someone suddenly asked, which quickly get my attention and look whoever it was.

Who is it?! I thought I was all alone in my room!?

I gaze at the person in the corner, It was Kate standing there silently gazing at me with her confusing eyes.

I didn't even get to notice her presence, I thought I was alone in my room because she was so silent that I ended up getting my character out of place dammit..!

I lightly gulped and awkwardly laugh at my biggest and huge mistake. Stupid mouth why can't you just shut up!

" Haha... The book that I read yesterday, I was confused why there were a lot of Huge plot twists in that book! It was very flusterating " I lightly chuckled, while I see Kate gazing at me even more. It feels like she doesn't even believe me.

Oh my GOD Just believe me!!

She stared at me for a minute. which form a cold sweats in my Forehead.

She lightly smiled, " is that so. I hope it didn't turned out very bad Young master. " She continued, " should I pour you some tea? "

I can't really read what my maid is really thinking in her mind. She's so damn scary and beautiful at the same time. Is this called red and green flag at the same time?!

" U-uhm... Yes, thank you. " I lightly mumbled.

" Alright, Young master. I'll be back soon. " She elegantly bowed her head as a sign of respect, and left the room. Leaving me all alone again inside the cold and heavy atmosphere that was forming In my chamber.

This is so tragic...

I flusteredly scratching my hair, I was both embarrassed and out of character a moment ago. I thought no one is in here... Dammit I shouldn't let my guard down.

I gain my relax and composure and let out a light cough.

" Let's just move on with it. " I said trying to regain my cool. As I was busy tending myself. A sudden light appeared in front of me, I shouldn't be afraid since I already know it's that young little fella.

" Jing... How's your day been going? " I raise my both hands toward him as I lightly rub it's warm light at my bare thumb.

It's indeed very small, but this little light cannot be underestimated since it holds everything that's very important and precious to me.

" I wonder, can Jing create a smoothing melody for me to relax? I haven't heard you sing nor play something, You're a spirit of music but I haven't heard you ever since I've been thrown in this novel to suffer." I smiled as the light shivers a bit, I just giggled by the sight of it.

" Don't worry I'm not angry nor disappointed. I just want to relax for a little while. " I continued, as the little light calmed a little bit.

When it calm down. It started to glow a little bright as the entire room was filled with fireflies, but at the same time it looks like not... Is it a spirit?

When it falls down in the floor, it dissapeared without any trace.

A smoothing sound suddenly echoes the room.

It's been so long I haven't heard anything like this, I lightly close my long lashes so that I could only focus my hearing and senses in that very melody.

Jing is like a music box... I chuckled at my own thoughts.

I just want to stay like this for the time being...

Meanwhile never little Eirwen thought, Kate was outside the room. Listening as well to their conversations and the music.

It was truly unexpected for Kate to hear Her master can talk to the spirits. Let alone control them as he command.

Just who is this person, I thought the Young master I know is a useless and non-capable child. not only that but a child who can't use magic... ' she thought, She started to get suspicious of Eirwen ever since the day of the accident. After he got his recovery not only his temper change but his way of actions of the households as well.

It sound like he is a very different person in the past, is this what it looks like when you lose your memory?... " Kate shakes her head while holding the silver tray in her hand. " I should stop thinking about those useless things. '

She let out a sigh, " I'll just come back later." She walks away from the door, It's been a long day for him anyways...

Third person POV

Draven walked at the hallway feeling more remorseful then ever, His steps echoes in the empty hallway.

He just drowned by his mind all day ever since his father made a decision about throwing Eirwen further away from the household, not only thrown away but left in that dangerous land, where hungry and terrifying beast roomed around freely.

He tried his best to stop his father about making those stupid and brainless decision he made in his entire life.

" What is father been thinking." He massaged his forehead hardly trying to calm his steamy head. " How can I face my little brother in this stupid state, I already did promised to visit him later today. " He added, he sighs out his bitterness in life.

" Draven? "

The steamy child gaze at the person, who called him. It was indeed his mother.

She seemed to be very well dressed with both maids beside her, he wondered where she was headed now.

" Hello mother, you look very beautiful. " Draven said while walking in front of his mother.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

" My son is indeed very sweet tongue, Like his father. " Belladonna said, as she gently squeeze Draven cheeks.

" Mother, I'm not a child anymore... " Draven said, he is very annoyed when his mother treated him like a 5 year old child she knew back then. But deep down he didn't hate it either.

" Right, right my child is already grown up." She smiled lightly gazing at him. " And you seem like you came from the direction of your little brother? " She asked as she gazed at the direction behind him.

Draven had no other choice but to nod at her question, " Mhm.. I just walk pass by. '

Belladonna squinted her eyes as she gaze at the young fellow, " it seem like it's not just walking pass by. ' she crossed her arms at her chest.

Draven coughs awkwardly as he gazes at his beautiful mother in front of him, " I remember there was a sudden change of schedule of my class, And I have to study mother. " He lightly bowed his head as he quickly walk away from his mother.

Belladonna can't help but let out a soft giggle noises as she covered it with her pale palm.

" It seems like my child has taken a  likeness to that third child. ' she thought while she walked away to continue her destination. " Let's go. ' she ordered her maids behind her to follow quietly, her tune of her soft voice while talking to her son is now gone, but changed into some Cold and dominant voice.

After many hours has been passed, Eirwen on the other hand was just relaxing on the same spot, Listening to the melody.

He lightly opened back his eyes, as his Gaze met the clean white ceiling of his room.

He thought that something doesn't feel right, That made his back a bit chillier than ever. Did something happened? Is this some kind of Deja Vu that will happened in the future event.

He lightly covered his mouth and gasp.

" Don't tell me, that the people and the characters I worked so hard to avoid and sometimes cherish. not only that but I also didn't even bully them after I came back. " Eirwen thought anxiously in his mind.

He lightly shakes his head off trying to regain his cold and brave face he had on always.

He stood up and went toward the window, gazing outside the garden.

It was already night time, and it's also already late, one thing he has on mind is kate.

Kate told him that she will be back to grab some tea. And it's already been long, where the hell is she...

Don't tell me she lied about grabbing some tea and Already have her holiday pay and decided to slack off her master...!

What the ...

While he was drown by his mind, it suddenly cutted off by a soft knocking on the door. Jing on the other hand also disappeared into the air, Eirwen cough lightly and patted his clothes clean.

" Come in. " He said, enough to let the other side hear his respond.

As the door opened, Eirwen sees the person in the window reflection whose coming in to that door.

It was his first big brother.

" Greetings first big brother, what made you visit my room this late night This isn't like you. " Eirwen light turned around as he clasped his both arms behind his back as his ruby cold eyes gazed at Akeldama.

Akeldama just gazes at Eirwen in his cold stone face.

" I... Just came to visit, I thought you were asleep. " He said lightly, still standing at the door and closing the door behind him.

Eirwen snort in his heart, " then what if I'm not asleep, do you have any business? "

He wanted to said but nevermind he doesn't want to fasten his death flag.

Eirwen just lightly smiled but it was a cold smile and Akeldama never knew he could smile like that.

In the past he always smiled so genuinely at him when he just stared nor ignored his younger brother. Now... It's both very different and unfamiliar to him..

He felt his chest tighten a bit and he doesn't know why it hurts when he sees him doing like that.

But some part of it is still a bit mystery to it, so akeldama just shrug off that unfamiliar feelings to the side.

Eirwen lightly responded with a chilly cold tune. " And yet i'm still awake, I can't sleep. And to be exact I'm waiting for my maid to come back. " In other words he meant he doesn't like Akeldama Staying for too long because he is not the one Eirwen expected to see in the first place. If he want to talk, Just straight to the point, don't beat around the bushes.

That's what Eirwen thought behind those words he spoke out.

Akeldama was silent for a moment, gazing at his younger brother's figure, as the light of the moon shone behind him making his Silver white hair stand out in the light, as his porcelain skin just lightly shown how pale and beautiful the child was. How beautiful his little brother was, that it might stop someone's breathe for a moment and just gaze at him lifelessly.

And suddenly Akeldama thought about what his father just said later this evening, which twitches his browns together. He face was filled with displeased and discomfort. But seeing his brother looking confusedly he just calm himself down.

Eirwen still doesnt know Father's plan about throwing him away... Maybe it's still fine. I still have time to convince father to let him stay. " That's what Akeldama thought as he crossed his arms at his chest.

" Is something the matter brother? " Eirwen lightly asked, The void eyes met the eyes of the fresh roses pupils.

As the grown child just stood like a stone in the corner, Behind was the close door. He just let out a small curved smile on his lips,  it aren't very visable and Eirwen can't literally see the smile in Akeldama's face. Because it wasn't near the light.

All Eirwen can see was that The facial expressions of Akeldama is making right now is the stone face or in other term Poker stupid face.

" No I'm alright, May I talk with you for a moment. Since we haven't talked a lot in this days. ' Akeldama said as he gestures his hand that was covered in black gloves at the Chairs in the center of the room.

Eirwen lightly frowns in his face, " what is he planning? Is he going to ask me to leave early? ' he though but still followed.

The snow boy sat down in the soft cushion as he faced his dark stone brother Akeldama. That was sitting elegantly on the chair.

And there goes the silence that goes on for at least 5 to 7 minutes. Until akeldama finally decided to talk.

" So how was your school, Is there any Problems? " He spoke out, Eirwen just confusedly tilted his head to the side.

Why is he asking some dumb question, Of course my days are hell. " He Thought to himself as he just sighed out his flusteration.

" I'm fine. My days are just as same as usual. " Eirwen responded as he noticed Akeldama's eyebrows frowned a bit.

" Does that mean, You enjoy being around those People? " he blurted out, Which his voice were filled with menace, Eirwen just frowned as well.

" What do you mean people? "

" Those people who always gets close to you like dogs. " He responded again continueng his sentence.

What the hell is wrong with this brothers today? Are they stalking me or something?" Eirwen thought.

" They are just someone I just meet a few days ago, nothing special. " Eirwen just lightly responded back, as he just gaze at his brother very coldly.

Akeldama even gazes at him with an upsetting look in his face, ' nothing special?' Akeldama thought in his mind with a huff came out from his mouth.

" Care to explain why are those aren't special? I haven't heard of someone going around with someone that aren't so special? " Akeldama argued back.

When Eirwen was about to talk, The door suddenly opened revealing The other brother and Kate behind him.

" Why did you come in his room without telling me? " Draven said fully frowning his eyebrows, Seeing Akeldama sitting with him alone in the room, makes his blood boil.

" This supposed to be a brothers meeting not on dual meeting! " He continued.

Meanwhile the other two had a questioning look in their face while they were looking at Draven who looks like his about to explode.

But Eirwen doesn't care rather he called out Kate to serve the tea she brought in with her.

" Now that your here, care to explain your reason why you come? " Eirwen gesture his brother Draven to sit down but he rather crossed his arms and look away

" I'm fine! I prefer him leaving us both alone. I don't like talking when theres someone listening. " Draven said with an angry tune in his voice but that just give Eirwen a stupid look in his face.

Seeing Draven saying that Akeldama stood up and looked at Eirwen, "I was about to talk about something important but I guess I can just move it to our next meeting." He said as he walked out from the door.

Eirwen on the other hand was questioning himself; is it something about the family meeting he listened earlier.

He got curious as the angry Draven sit down on the couch facing Eirwen. As he told Kate to leave.

" Now I shouldn't beat around the bushes. I should tell you something regarding about our family. Since you aren't our real biological brother in the first place. " Draven said with a darker tune, Which give Eirwen a pounding chest.

Eirwen was startled to what he just heard.

;Did he know that I wasn't eirwen in the first place?!

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

It ended just like that, Eirwen thought that he got caught red-handed but silly him. He just overthinking it.

But Draven just told him that he wasn't his brother, but they do share the same father's blood line.

" Brother... I don't want to be very harsh on you.. " Draven said as he clasped his hands together, Looking at Eirwen on his empty void eyes.

But Eirwen thought; you were harsh in the very beginning

" I want to protect you, how about you become my knight."

Eirwen suddenly felt a sting on his head like something peirced in his head.

" How about it like that? I can even make you my best knight. " Draven said as he raised his hands toward Eirwen.

" Are you feeling alright Eirwen? " Draven asked, As his face looks concerned.

Eirwen suddenly felt the pain just dissapeared like it wasnt there in the first place.

" What...? " Eirwen thought. " What was that just now?.."

Eirwen asked his brother to leave the Room for a while since he said he wasn't feeling very well, and he wants to get to bed to rest.

Not only that but Draven keep on insisting on bringing some doctor in the mansion but Eirwen decline his offer.

He left after Eirwen denying him so many times.

...Eirwen then looks outside the window, and thinks about the Stinging pain half a minute ago.

What was that?

It just disappeared after his brother stopped talking about making him his knight.

Is there something going on between them? ....
