Valerian Empire

A dark time when the creatures of shadow descended unto the tranquil human lands, making their existence known. A time followed when empires were led by humanity's conspiracy and betrayal, a time filled with hatred, but unbeknownst to the humans, they were only mere puppets, pawns of greater beings of darkness, entities with the power to crush anything and everything in their way. What happens when a small human girl catches the eye of one of these so-called greater beings, a pureblooded Lord? Can an ant such as her survive the political strifes and fearsome feuds between the lands and the monsters that control them. For those who fear vampires, ghosts and the unknown, I offer two words of advice… Tread lightly. -------- "Why should I avoid him? He was a perfect gentleman, a good man," Katherine Welcher argued in his defense. "Good or not, neither matter," Alexander Delcrov warned her, "As long as you're under my wing, you shall behave and listen to my words. Do not let any man kiss you, Katherine. I don’t want others to call you improper." "There was nothing improper about it! And I'm not yours to obey," she blurted out in annoyance, feeling her face flush with embarrassment for the second time this evening, "I mean, you can't order me aro—-" "So disobedient," he stated with nonchalance before moving his hand from her waist to her back, pulling her closer to him as they danced. His breath tickled her nape. "So you’ll only listen if you are mine?"

Death of the ghost (4)

Malphus, who had received the fruit from the kind elder man took a bite from the fruit, his mouth noisily munching and crunching on the scrumptious fruit that had been given to his earlier. With the guard out of sight, he took the other end of the alley which was narrow in the passage. His grey eyes swept across the little space to see cobwebs and dirt that had come to be accumulated in time as the people around and in the village had stopped using it.

The human didn't know why his step-mother often sent someone to tail him, it wasn't as if he would defame the family name but then, thought Malphus to himself. Either he wasn't part of the family or his step-mother wasn't part of the family. It was either one of the two possibilities which only came down to that they were far from being related. Not by name nor by blood.
