Chapter 14 - CHAPTER 14: What a gruesome present

the sound of knocking was heard and the the clinking open of the door.

"Who said you could come in?" Lustre asked without even turning, like he already knew who it was

"Is it true?" Riel walked in as she asked

"Make sense when you talk, I don't answer unfinished questions

"Are you really engaged to her?"

"It seems your peeping had paid off but I don't believe that's any of your concern." he says still going on with what he was doing.

"If you are then why did you make me sign that contract" Riel said her voice rising "What are you trying to do?"

"Lower your voice or be quiet and I don't believe I owe you any explanation, besides you signed that contract of your own accord? did you not?" HE says his voice unhinged "And of course you still have the liberty to back out of it, just except your parental rights" he added.

Riels' body shivered with anger, but he was right there was nothing she could do. She signed the contract of her ow will.

As they ate at the dining table, trying to ignore the gigantic elephant in the room, with the clinking of the cutleries against each other, Riel sat beside the tweens getting nauseated as she watched all the babying going on before her.

Kiha was trying to spoon feed Lustre, But his icy cold face showed no interest as he continued ignoring her, almost like she didn't even exist in front of her.

Is the how he treats a Fiancée? Riel asks herself watching the seen at Kihas' attempted trial and failure. It was almost Sad watching, and yet somehow she felt it was Funny, her face twitching with laughter as she tried to hold it in.

"What's so funny" Kiha said no longer able to ignore Riels' growing smirk

"Nothing" Riel said trying to ignore composure "Aren't you.... Never mind" she said facing her food.

Kiha looks at her strangely and faces her food, the awkwardness in the room intensifying.

"I've transferred Levi to the same school as Leth. Now the driver doesn't need to pick the up at different times." Lustre said non-challantly, not even looking up as he ate.

"What?! when?" Riel said surprised and then suddenly anger rushed through her veins " Why would you do that without asking me first?" she asked her tone raising.

"Do I need to get your permission to decide on what I want for my son" Lustre said his tone showing his indifference. 

"You..." riel couldn't think of what to say, what made her even more mad was his indifference to what she had said "Come on kids let go" she said calling them to her.

She stood up from the dining table and walks away "I'm full, thank you for the meal" as the kids follow her.

Lustre watched as her distance faded into the distance, He didn't care what she had thought, and even if he did, she wouldn't understand his Intentions. Trouble was brewing and he had to be vigilant.

He stands up walking away from the table, leaving Kiha to eat alone, not saying as much as a word to her, he leaves up to his room dresses up and Heads of to his car with Axiver behind.

"Any reports?" Lustre asked Axiver his voice still.

"No sudden movements from the other side... yet" Axiver replied "But i did some digging as to word Lord Dimitry had mentioned earlier. And it seems true. Some of the low birthed of our have suddenly started to vanish"

"Vanish? No traces of them" Lustre asked facing the window as Axiver spoke.

"I'm afraid there is none that have come to notice"

The sudden disappearance of vampires had cause a stir within the upper class and with the recent event that had both happened to Leth and Levi they needed to start some digging.

"Axiver, let's go see them" Lustre said 

"Are you sure Sir? It's not in our territory''

"Go"

Minutes later

Lustre arrives at an abandoned warehouse at dusk. it was already evening and the sun was setting. He steps out of the car, rearranging his suit.

"Should I come with" Axiver asks

"Stay put, I can handle it myself" saying that he walks into the building. he's footsteps echoing with every step he took, until he arrived at the innermost part.

Arriving he stops in his track, looking before him. He hears growl and not the friendly kind.

He could see figures in the shadows and eyes that didn't belong to humans.

They had a beastly haze to them and the growls became louder, the fangs, white and large.

WOLVES

He was surrounded, taking a fighting stance he stops as he hears footsteps walking towards him and then the sound of clapping

"Didn't expect to see you here Gemstone" the voice says as it stays within the shadows.

The wolves made path, hearing the voice, but not breaking formation around Lustre

"We received your presents. And I had to say, it wasn't very welcoming. wont you agree" saying that the figure steps closer, closing the distance between as the wolves start to growl even louder than before.

"If it wasn't, Your men shouldn't have entered my turf. We made a deal, contact stops at the human boundaries" Lustre says

"You say that and yet you send me heads as a gift. isn't that harsh" the figure says, he's voice with a hint of mockery as though he was trying to provoke Lustre.

"If you didn't want the heads, then your men shouldn't have kidnapped my kid" he says, his voice threatening.

"Kidnapped... Oh so that's what your fussy about, you should've said so from the start" the figure says with an evil grin that can turn magma to ice

"Good, then this is a warning. The next time you mutts invade. I wont just be sending some heads, I'd be coming for the pack, you hear, Kazuki" Lustre says turning to leave.

"You sure you can handle that? GEMSTONE" Kazuki says smirking

"Don't worry you don't need to bother" saying that Lustre leaves.

Silently watching as the Image fades Kazuki stands still.

"Girshin, call those idiot brats for me"

As Lustre leaves the Warehouse he enters the car silently, not speaking a word

"Where to sir?"

"Company"

Saying that, Axiver steps the pedal, leaving the place
