Chapitre 15: Preamble
While Luna "Trained" Lucas
At the Leviathan family mansion, Lilith had just woken up, she moved her hand to touch the body of her beloved, however, she was all alone lying on her bed, she felt confused for a moment but then, she opened her eyes wide and looked around, only to find Claire lying unconscious on the floor
He quickly got up and hit her face repeatedly to wake her up.
-Claire, wake up!
-umm... -
Claire reacted and opened her eyes slowly, she was disoriented.
-What happened?
-That's what I want to ask you!
Lilith shouted
After hearing that scream Claire quickly pulled herself together and began to search through her memories.
-I was outside the room... when I heard a faint noise, I thought the master had woken up so I went in, but after that... everything is confusing....
After saying that, she quickly stood up.
While Lilith thought of all the possible options, however, only one person flooded her thoughts.
-That old witch-
Her mother's figure shone in her mind, being in the Leviathan family mansion, the only "Being" capable of taking Lucas without being detected is her mother Luna.
Claire seems to have come to the same conclusion as she nodded in response to Lilith's words.
-If that witch was the one who took.... I must talk to dad-
Lilith said irritated before leaving the room with Claire.
A short time later
Esen was in her noble style matrimonial room, they had a big central bed, next to a white wooden desk and the floor was covered by a red carpet, she was looking for Luna who suddenly had disappeared after having taken her away from Lucas and Lilith, but she didn't give it any importance until now.
-Where did this woman go?
Trying to concentrate to feel Luna's presence, he managed to detect that Lilith and Claire were approaching his location.
She approached the door and opened it
-What's going on?
Esen said, taking Lilith by surprise, who looked confused towards her father, but she quickly recovered herself.
-Lucas is not here, that old witch must have taken him away!
-Your mother?
-She's the only old witch I know!
Esen laughs in amusement
-If Luna took him, then there's no way to find him, but knowing how she is... she probably must have left a message, she must have her reasons.
After all Luna would never do anything to hurt Lilith, if she took Lucas she must have her reasons, that's what Esen was thinking.
No matter how much she hates Lucas, for Lilith's sake she'll tolerate it.
-Reasons? That crazy woman just wants to torture him
She said irritated when she imagined Lucas being beaten by Luna.
Lilith had a very bad opinion about her mother.
-I can't deny that...
Esen looks away and turns around and then walks towards a box that was on the desk next to the bed, after opening the box, a black envelope wrapped in a red ribbon appeared.
-I knew it.
Taking the envelope, Esen turns back to the door, looking at Lilith who was very irritated, he extended his hand giving her the envelope in his hands.
-Is this?
-From your mother
The black envelope is characteristic of Luna
Lilith opens it quickly, inside the envelope was a white sheet with letters written on it.
-It's her handwriting-
Reading Luna's message, Lilith's eyebrows began to tremble.
"I'm taking the brat, he's not worthy of you, we'll be back in a year."
Simple and direct, typical of her mother, however the one who was most affected was not Lilith herself, but Claire, since she was positioned as Lucas' Exclusive Maid, but now she has to be a year away from her master, she couldn't even do her chores before losing him, her expression said it all.
-Much I can't do, if Luna doesn't want to be found, it's simply impossible-
Esen shrugged as she felt Lilith's gaze, even if she wanted to help her, there's not much she can do, Luna is a specialist in covering her tracks, trying to track her is a waste of time.
Lilith sighs annoyed
-I'll have to talk to Alexia....
If her mother says she'll be back in a year, then that's how it will be, no more, no less time.
-Right, I will remove Luna's order, you will be able to use the "Rift" again without any problems.
Esen remembered Luna's order, he was aware of that, however he let Luna do what she wanted.
Lilith narrowed her eyes towards her father.
-Did you know?
-Maybe?
Esen closed the door leaving Lilith stunned, Claire who is by her side urges her to go back.
-We have to get ready to return to the human world.
-I understand...
Lilith is upset because her father was aware of her mother's plan against them.
Thinking about what to tell Lucas' mother, Lilith went back to her room to prepare herself.
***
In her short life Lilith has never felt as nervous as she did at this moment, not when she was named as one of "the jewels of Hell" not at social gatherings, not anywhere else.
She was standing in front of Lucas' house, it was already dark and Claire was waiting for her in the car, she had to meet with a woman [Alexia Valentine] Lucas' mother, even though she was there, she still doesn't know what to say to her.
Taking a deep breath, Lilith walks to the door, but as she was about to knock, it opened.
There appeared a woman with black hair and blue eyes, who appeared to be younger than her age.
-Lilith?
-Mother-in-law-
For a moment Lilith's mind went blank but she quickly pulled herself together.
Alexia looked around, probably looking for her son's figure.
-And Lucas?
asks Alexia
Lilith gives a nervous smile before answering
-He was invited by my parents?
She said the first thing that came to her mind trying to sound convincing.
Alexia is surprised for a moment, before giving a warm smile.
-Please come in-
-Thank you-
Said Lilith entering the house
Alexia cordially lead Lilith to the living room where they were last time, they sat together on the furniture.
-Did your parents invite Lucas?
asks Alexia curious
-Yes, Lucas wanted to come himself, but my parents insisted...
Lilith smiles nervously, she felt uncomfortable lying to Lucas' mother, she can't just tell her "My mother took Lucas away and she won't be back for another year".
-I see... -
Alexia thought for a moment before speaking again.
-Where did they go?
-Germany-
Lilith answered instantly
-Germany?
-Yes, my family comes from Germany and my parents insisted on going, so Lucas agreed, he's probably flying there right now.
-Will you go?
Lilith nodded
-Yes, in a few days, after settling some business.
She still has to fix her problem with Lucas's university and then go back to hell.
-Hum...
Alexia takes Lilith's hands between hers.
-She's fine, but how long will she be there?
-I... I have no idea... A year? Maybe less, it depends on him.
Lilith didn't want to blatantly lie to him, so she gave a half lie.
-That's a long time. What about his college?
-He already applied for a leave of absence or if he wants he could continue studying in Germany, since he is of age there shouldn't be any legal problem.
Lilith tried to reassure him that Lucas will be fine.
-I guess he will be fine, that boy is like that.
Alexia looked relieved and looks at Lilith with a warm smile.
For a moment Lilith felt guilty but quickly that feeling disappeared.
-Yes...
-Still, you should introduce me to your parents some day.
Said Alexia caressing Lilith's head softly.
Lilith was surprised by the sudden caress.
-Of course-
She felt strange, since Alexia's hand felt warm and she didn't feel repulsion when being touched by that hand.
-It's okay, you must have things to do yet, go before it gets later-
Alexia gets up and urges Lilith to leave.
-All right, thank you.
Lilith smiles, gives Alexia a little hug before walking towards the door.
-Take care of that boy.
Said Alexia saying goodbye to Lilith
-Of course-
Lilith smiled warmly before walking towards the car where Claire is waiting for her.
She quickly got into the car
-How did it go?
Claire asked looking at Lilith in the rearview mirror.
-It looks like she believed it.
-Is that so?
-Probably...
Although she did her best to persuade her, she's not sure.
-Where are we going?
Claire asks.
-Home.
