Zeta walked briskly with several shopping bags in her arms on her way to Sienna’s room. From the corner of her eyes, she catches two maids conversing in hushed voices in the adjacent turn.

She frowns deeply. These girls only know to slack off and gossip when she is away and have no one monitoring them. Now, she has caught them red-handed they will surely get a lecture from her.

Zeta sneaks up behind the two maids but they don’t notice her, too engrossed in their discussion. One that also catches her attention when she was close enough to make sense of their words.

“I saw Master Mateo come down to the servants' quarters today, he looks so handsome up close.” One said to the other dreamily, “You don’t get to see him all the time ‘cause he is always at Miss Felicity’s private quarters in his free time, right up her ass!”

“You did? Why do you always get to be the lucky one? He rarely ever visits our part of the mansion. It must have been important.” Her partner replies.

    "To be frank, that's all that happened," Isadora says to Felicity as they both sit under the shed built near her quarters. Lucas is on Isadora's lap and he tugs and plays with her hair. She doesn't seem to feel it though, her mind has been so preoccupied in the last hour. Earlier, she had been escorted by one of Vincent's men to her new room in the mansion on Vincent's command. Their little squabble in his chambers from last night was already strange enough, and the new development was quite the surprise. Felicity nods as she listens to Isadora's recount of the whole situation, hanging off every word with rapt attention. She breaks into a knowing smile as soon as Isadora is done. "I always knew there was something special about you. It's like the entire mansion has been blown with a different wind since you came here." Her face blooms, sunny yellow. Isadora is tempted to roll her eyes, but to her surprise, she rolls with Felicity's energy. Her positivity is very infectious. "You

    THREE DAYS LATER For the next few days, Isadora's practice with Vincent gets a lot more intense and everything seems back to normal. He has neither summoned her to serve him nor has he mentioned the incident again. Whatever uproar that had risen in the mansion after Isadora's room upgrade has died down. Even Sienna has been laying low and out of sight for the past few days. Isadora never guessed her bluffs in the hallway would be so efficient. Right now, she is standing beside Vincent's desk. He has summoned her this early evening. Isadora shifts her weight from one foot to another, nervously as she waits for Vincent to address her for whatever purpose he summoned her here for. Her fast-growing unrest could be justified by one reason. Throughout their duel back at the practice grounds, usually with his gaze thick with hatred, there was something more this time …. much more sinister. He had that psychotic look in his eyes, the same look he had when he made her almost kill Dante in

    It is as though everything moves in slow motion as Felicity walks past the side of Isadora's vision, the clip clops of the following horse in her wake. The world stands still for a split second while Isadora sucks in a deep breath. Well, that was... brutal. Whatever that was about, it is clear as day now. Felicity IS avoiding her. A ginger-haired man slides into her focus wearing a polite smile, "Hi, I'm Carlo. I assume you are Isadora. Can I help you with anything?" This might just be the second person in the Familglia to be nice to her on the first meeting, after Felicity that is; "Could you guide me to the horses? I need a suitable one to ride with." Carlo's smile reaches his eyes, he must really like anything about horses, "My pleasure. Please, follow me." Carlo leads the way further into the stables and Isadora follows quietly. He comes to a halt and faces Isadora again, this time they are in a much denser part of the deep stable, to the left and right were horses of unique b

    It all felt random as an unknown man strolls by just in time to see the horse troupe. He freezes as his gaze falls and stays on the devil masked rider. Eye wide, as both innate fear and respect reverberated from his core, burning through his nervous networks and manifesting unto his trembling skin. There is a trace of annoyance in Vincent's words, "Felicity, did you…?" "I sent word that you were coming." Felicity smiled excitedly, failing to notice Vincent's disapproval. Though with one look at her face, he couldn't bear holding on to it. He had expected this, it was Felicity's nature. Thump! The deafening sound of submission caught Vincent's attention as well as the others. "F-forgive my insolence! I dared to stare directly at the son of the rising sun, engulfed in awe and my selfish desire to behold your might on this auspicious day. Please have mercy!" The aged man pleaded, kneeling with his forehead touching the earth. 'Son of the rising sun?' Isadora mused on the one phrase

    NIGHT - BLACK SAINTS MANSION "I just received the latest report from Dariel. Fortunately, there were zero casualties amongst the people, and although they are still shaken there is order in Inizio." Mateo reports. "It's good to know the people are safe. It seems that putting Dariel in charge of the community was a good decision." Vincent replies, sitting behind his desk. "Is there any new information on the men that infiltrated and their mission here?" Mateo shook his head, "So far there is none. I think they caught wind of your advance to Inizio and used the opportunity to infiltrate the crowd. It was a well thought plan." "With that cover, they stayed mainly undetected. However, there is a great chance their goal wasn't to have direct engagement with you at all. As there were many opportunities to attack first but they had chosen to stay discreet. Even after your provocation by shooting first, they panicked but still chose to escape in the chaos, than suffer confrontation." "I

    Isadora stammers at the peak of a mind fuck, "I... I…" "If I was a second late it would be you in his position now if not much worse! Do you understand what that means?!" Vincent groans in frustration. Shaken, Isadora's eyes become heavy in tears, "I know alright! I ALMOST DIED!" She screams, with a dull lump in her throat choking her spirit. "I. Almost. Died. Again." She repeats in a cold, soulless whisper. Again? Vincent is taken aback by Isadora's countenance. There was a sudden dull pain in his heart from just looking at her. This might be the first time he has witnessed Isadora's pure emotion, a mood that is vastly different from the pretentious one she executes 24/7. It was filled with boundless despair, helplessness, and agony, emitted from her spirit. Alas, it disappears just as suddenly as it came, as Isadora soon springs up on her feet with a mask of relief. Vincent wasn't one to be fooled though. If this he has just experienced was only a glimpse of her true self… ju

    Vincent presses the cold rim of the gun on Lorenzo's skull, finger teasing the trigger. Recognizing him doubled his anger, "Why do you dare go against me, Lorenzo? Your answer shall determine if you live or die today."Lorenzo sucks in a sharp breath. Feeling the cool air on his bruised, battered face was less than pleasant. His eyelids barely hung halfway openHis dislocated jaws hurt so much as he struggled to make a sentence, knowing well what Vincent was capable of… familiarity or none. After all, he had murdered his father without regret.Still, he risked answering a question with another. He desperately needed to confirm it, "In what way have…. I…. gone against you, Lord V…vincent?" His voice is barely comprehendible.He grits his teeth so hard with loathe that blood poured from his gums, "I only came here to finish my business."Vincent presses the gun even harder against his head. "You do know, I have a very thin tolerance for bullshit, Lorenzo."There is a brief moment of sil

    The Next Day - Morning "Hey, Sienna!" Felicity calls out with a wave, to Sienna who passes by her quarters.Sienna changes course to Felicity. She doesn't speak until she is directly in front of her, "Goodmorning.""Morning." Felicity responds with a smile so innocent, Sienna had zero will to fight back a smile of her own.She wondered what Felicity wanted, it isn't her habit to call her like this."Are you alright now?" Felicity inquires."What do you mean?""I noticed you've been on edge since yesterday, but I didn't have the time to ask." Felicity explains.Sienna looked surprised. Was it that obvious?"I… um…" She formulates an excuse, "I just don't like it when the presence of anything is a threat to Lord Vincent."Felicity sighed, "Yeah. Yesterday was pretty tough, not how I expected to end the day."Sienna nodded. She wasn't referring to what had happened in Inizio though, she knew quite well no one as weak as those men could be any threat to Vincent."If I knew such would hap

    On the hospital bed, Sienna’s eyes weakly fluttered open and her blurry vision took a moment to clear up. Her mind felt heavy and foggy, and it took a while to get her bearings.She emitted a deep, weary moan as she attempted sitting up, overcome by the fatigue that washed over her.“I wouldn’t move too much if I were you,” Mateo advised.Sienna’s gaze snapped to the source of his voice. Mateo was sitting on a chair right beside the edge of the bed with an unwavering gaze on her. She hadn’t noticed him before.“W-what’s going on?” She struggled to form words, still feeling groggy.“You fainted yesterday. You are in the infirmary now.”“Why would I be –“ Sienna’s mind recovered its sharpness in an instant. She finally remembered.“Oh no…. I need… I need to see lord Vincent now….I need…” Ignoring her deathly aching body, Sienna hastily hurried onto her feet, almost tripping in the process.“Sit the fuck down, now, Sienna!” Mateo commanded with striking authority, yet his voice remained

    At the entrance of the Green Viper’s Mansion, a number of maids carefully but quickly stowed Sienna’s suitcases into her ride. They didn’t want to be present when she showed up, the past week plus had already put them through enough hell.The signature click-clack of Sienna’s heels could be heard as she walked towards the entrance from within. She moved with urgency in her steps and an impatient look on her face as she checked for the time on her smartphone.“Ugh, it’s almost noon and these imbeciles aren’t done loading up yet. Just like the system here, its people are also slow. How I miss Zeta!’ she groused under her breath.“Don’t tell me you’re going back to the Black Saints after you were clearly banned. It’s barely been two weeks already, do you have a death wish?” Neomi scoffed.Her voice scraped Sienna’s nerves like nails on a chalkboard, forcing her to stop in her tracks.Turning just her torso, Sienna glared at Neomi who met her gaze from the staircase landing. “Unlike you,

    "Woah," Gianna sat up and cupped Isadora's face in her hands, "Is there anything wrong?" She asked worriedly, unused to Isadora being so affectionate.Isadora let out a small giggle, "No, I've just missed you.""Hmm" Gianna examined her body, "Are you sure? You've lost a bit of weight. Where have you been all these while? Your friend said you went on vacation. Is that true?""Slow down mom, one question at a time."Isadora shook her head."Yes, I'm fine and it's true, the stress was getting to me and I thought I should take advantage of the break and relax properly before school resumed." She lied.Only after her explanation did Gianna finally calm down, sighing in relief.Isadora dragged a chair and sat by her mother's bedside, smiling.Vincent really kept his word to keep Gianna out of their affairs if she complied. That, she was thankful for. She couldn't put Gianna through the stress of worrying about her, in her condition… she couldn't drag her back to that life.Gianna noticed th

    Isadora had her back to Victor while he left. She gazed at the crumpled piece of paper in her hand and tossed it into the trash in an instant.Federigo saw this and sighed, "Don't be too upset Isadora, this is for your own good.""And who are you to tell me how to feel?" Isadora said hotly."I'm just following your father's wishes." He explained.Isadora scoffed, "If you haven't noticed, following that low life's commands isn't exactly my forte, is it?"Federigo didn't know what to say. He could see hatred blaze in the child's eyes each time his master, Lance was mentioned. If Lance could see this right now, he would be destroyed within.He couldn't tell her the truth now. He couldn't possibly explain how much her father loved her and never wished for things to play out like this. No… that would be too much to hear after all these years of pain.He could only say bitterly, "This isn't the way Lance wanted it to end.""Of course, it isn't." Isadora agreed sarcastically.Federigo led her

    Isadora smoothly settled down at the new dorm. For dinner, she ordered takeout for all and left Echo and Nirvana in each other's company before retiring to her room. She spent the rest of the night researching and filling up updates on what she's missed in the past few months and her class schedule.The next morning, Isadora rose quite early with an ominous inkling for the day and boarded a cab out of the University's premises. It was a silent ride downtown.She had mixed feelings, willingly coming back to the one place she detested the most, somewhere that was supposed to be her home. Despite knowing that the sole cause of her hatred was dead, it didn't give her much peace.She's never really got to think about Lance's death and what it meant to her. He was gone, but it didn't feel like it. Even when she strove so much to be completely dissociated from him, his bloody legacy still found ways to influence her life, in some way or another.Somehow he's managed to make himself a major ch

    "Great, you are here already!" Nirvana opened the door to the dorm, ushering Isadora in."You own quite the apartment, don't you?" Isadora commented, looking around the beautiful living space.Consisting of multiple private rooms sharing one living room, It was a place located in one of the most well-off housing areas in the school. She didn't expect to be placed in the same dorm as Nirvana. It seems she had become Nirvana's official bodyguard.Nirvana chuckled, "Just as much as the insufferable problems, there are perks that come with being born in a wealthy Famiglia," She hopped over to the mini bar at the corner and poured Isadora a glass of chilled water."Thanks," Isadora took a sip from the glass. The feel of the cold liquid in her mouth instantly melted all the tension that built up in her mind while coming here. Back to a place that she'd lost all hope on.After she received Vincent's orders yesterday, she proceeded to inform Felicity and Imelda about her pending departure. Th

    After two days of rest, Vincent summoned Isadora to his side quite early in the morning.He made her stand beside his desk, which exposed a clear view of his confidential work while he penned down some words.Isadora took liberty to peer over his shoulders while he worked. She subconsciously thought he was very attractive in his serious working state.There was a soft knock at the door."Come in." Vincent permitted, routinely.The door opened, revealing Imelda's gentle figure."Good morning Lord Vincent. I want to know if you are in the mood to try anything today." She said with a tone of anticipation."No need." Came Vincent's firm voice. Not once did he take his eyes off his desk."Alright." Imelda released a sigh of defeat and proceeded to leave the room.One day he was alright and the next he wasn't. Vincent hadn't tasted a thing since the last time he ate. She was starting to get worried."Wait." Vincent's casual word made Imelda halt immediately.For the first time since she arr

    Felicity looked crestfallen, facing Isadora's rejection. Her tone considerably lowered, "I thought you also felt it. Did I read it wrong? I'm sorry I shouldn't have -" "No! It's not you." Isadora grabbed Felicity's hands in hers, preventing her from saying anything else. She spoke, raw from her heart, "You are the most wonderful person I've ever met, Felicity." She glanced at Felicity's body, feeling a rush of desire, "Just… Wonderful." She looked Felicity in the eye, "And I do feel something for you - something I don't understand. I'm just not ready for all of this yet." Isadora explained, a bit overwhelmed. Felicity's doleful expression softened into a small smile. She looked very relieved, her eyes glued to the floor in embarrassment, "I was going crazy not acting on my feelings for a long time. I thought it would ruin our friendship." "Hey," Isadora held up Felicity's chin to meet her gaze. "Nothing can ever come between us. I won't let that happen." Felicity's heart raced at

    "Mateo doesn't mind if you hang out with me in broad daylight?" Isadora was much more patient with Felicity now that she understood their dynamic.Felicity's smile instantly fell flat with a frown. Isadora perceived she had said something wrong. Did the two get into a fight?"He's too busy to notice." She replied curtly.Felicity brought Isadora down to her quarters, where Milia sat in the living room, holding an adorable toddler.She stood up to acknowledge them, "Mistress Felicity… Mi-miss Isadora?..."Milia looked very surprised. She never expected the maids' hot gossip this morning, that Isadora had survived the monster was indeed true."Can I have him?" Isadora reached for Lucas with a smile."Sure." Milia passed him to her.Lucas, who was usually very picky about who held him, readily bent his torso towards her.Once he settled in Isadora's arms, Milia stepped aside.Isadora sat beside Felicity on the couch and sat Lucas on her thighs.His bright blue eyes stared at Isadora with
