POV: Lucien
That was silly of me, I had forgotten, completely forgotten, just how different we are from each other, on how… how he has grown up in a different environment, how much he did not know about the world I live in, of how, right now, it looked and behaved quite tamely because of the iron hand of those who ought it to be that way, of how the supernatural world is full of the pain of surviving only the fitness…
Forgotten how he did not know that, differently and beyond their weakly humans politicians out there, that here the only thing that keeps me in charge is the respect and fear I have from my people, of the strength we had to put together to keep it that way.
Maquiavel knew it well… for respect and love will make those under my command work hard for our city, but those who dare defy me… will receive the treatment befitting them, and will be made an example out of it.
Oh boy, no more nice guy uhm?
Hope you are all liking the story so far! I start getting deeper into developing the character and their relationship now.
Hope you enjoy it!
