Chapter 30: Chapter 29

It was late and Pierre should have gone to sleep but instead he decided to drink. Sleep was not something he looked forward to these days especially with Lucian hunting him in his dreams, or more correctly his nightmares. Everyone around him were only making things worse by talking about Lucian all the time. Now even his own son claimed to have seen Lucian. Levi was probably just affected by the rumors as he himself was.

His brother could not be alive. He would not allow it.

"Your Highness." A guard barged inside Pierres chamber. Pierre who was about to pour some liquor into his glass stopped halfways and turned to the guard.

"Didn't I say that I don't want to be disturbed?" He asked outraged.

"Your highness, prince Lucians men are gone."

Pierre stood up with such force that the chair fell backwards.

"What do you mean gone?!" He asked.

The guard shook in fear. "They escaped."

"How can they escape?" Pierre yelled.
