Chapter 21: Chronicle of Rivalry. Arthur Fleandear's PoV I was ten when I learned the past of the two bickering family. Some of us stayed quiet but stood a ground. Some of the members fight like that is the only thing they know. My parents stayed silent, so I was taught too. All of the other members of our family except for my parents and aunt were blood-looking people. They will create a way to harm anyone from the rival family. And so does the other members of the Reevish's bloodline. I grow up to a violent surroundings. I was 17 when I found the love of my life. Veronica Auswitche. A foreign doctor from Germany. I even harm myself so I can see her. We fell in love with each other. But it was a f*******n intimacy. Veronica's family is a close friend to the Reevish's. My parents agreed but the other members especially my uncles and my cousins. The elders did not approved of the relationship we had. I betrayed them. I married Veronica secretly with both of our parents watching and some of the Reevish members too. The good ones, I mean. Veronica gave birth to our first son, in Germany. We flew over there to hide her and my child. But eventually, they accepted our marriage. As our marriage celebrated for the 5th year, Veronica gave birth to our second son, Brent, we were already living in the mansion of my family. My other family members still cannot accept our love. They have opened to our children but to us, mostly to Veronica. Both my parents died in a helicopter crash. It was a hard time now that it's only my aunt to shield us. Two years after the death of my parents, Veronica conceived our daughter, Stella. After Stella turned 6 months, the heat in the family rose up. ''What were you doing with a Reevish, Veronica?!'' my grandmother asked. I got to the living room with Stella in my arms. ''What's wrong here?'' ''This wife of yours is talking with a Reevish. Unforgivable!'' What?! ''Is it true, Veronica?'' ''It is. But you know how close I am with Stella.'' Stella? Oh. Her bestfriend in college. And Harell's wife. ''What's wrong with it?'' Veronica asked. ''You literally asked what's wrong?'' Its my aunt. ''Your talking to the member of a rival family.'' ''Rival? Its your predecessors fight not mine. This is a headache!'' Veronica said. ''Well, the cure for that is to stay away.'' Uncle Jake said. ''Why did you marry this uncultured, stupid woman!'' ''Your harsh on my wife, grandma. That temper of yours is the reason grandpa died.'' Pak! A slap landed in my face. ''Are you poisoned by this wench?'' ''Well, guess what. I drink it voluntarily. Its more like a cure to the poison you gave since young. Come here, Veronica. We'll be leaving this toxic place.'' Before I could leave the main hall, I turned to meet their gazes. ''The treasures are in my name before Grandpa died. I'm taking those with me.'' ''NO!'' I heard all my uncles and aunts shouted. ''Why not? Its mine, anyways. You still have money from your politic life and the one company Grandpa left to you.'' We left the house the next morning. Grandma was waiting for us in the main hall. ''I'm sorry. Don't leave the place. It just anger me that you talk to a Reevish.'' ''Save that excuse to the heaven, Grandma, if you are allowed to step on there, that's it.'' ''REMEMBER THIS, ARTHUR! YOU'LL BE COMING BACK HOME WITHOUT THAT b***h!'' She shouted before we can even drive out. ''Are you okay, Veronica?'' ''Yes. Glad we leave that toxic place. Its not a great ground to our children. What's wrong of saying hi with my bestfriend. Unbelievable. Your Aunt Kristine is the only one I like in your family. And I am very sorry for that.'' ''That's fine, Honey. I don't like the other members also. Both of my parents stayed a low profile ever since they got married. Grandpa was biased to me when I was born. Making all of my cousins envy me. I didn't care anyways.'' We stayed at a house that my parents left for us. After three years of peaceful life, a phone call made us to go back at the mansion. Grandma died with a heart attack last three days. And guess what? All of her territories is in my name. Leaving nothing for the other members. ''I want us to stay low but this is annoying.'' ''At least we can now control the house. We can even change the rules.'' ''The paper I got from our lawyer says I cannot change the rules in the house for the predecessors created it. Only the Golden Baby Dragon can change the rules.'' ''That means, our daughter, Stella, can change all of this stupidity?'' ''Maybe. If she can met the panther cub.'' ''Mama, what is a stupidity?'' Arthure asked. ''You'll see it once you grew up in that house.'' I giggled. We arrived at these shitty place. Arthure held my hand as we started walking and entered the mansion. ''Oh. The favorite boy is back with the witch and their three little pigs.'' ''Well, yeah. Its time to throw some garbage in these place.'' Veronica boldly said, making my aunt angry. That's my wife for ya. Grandma's funeral flew by and I became the head of the house, controlling every corners of the mansion. Even if our position in the family change, Veronica's personality didn't change a lot. She is still the sweet, caring woman I met except she got braver and stronger. My kids became smarter than their cousins. I gave them 3 rooms each. I throw all other members of the family in the other, much smaller mansion. ''Isn't a little cruel, Arthur?'' ''They deserved it.'' After months of being the head, a business in the United Kingdom Of America suddenly drops. ''Are you really going to that country?'' ''Yes, that business is what Papa build. I need to take care of it.'' ''Be back safe.'' ''You should, too.'' I left my family for two months and all that I have when I came back, all that is left, are my two children. ''I am very sorry. I couldn't protect them, Dad.'' my son, Brent said. Then my aunt who I trust the most said everything to me. I was painful. At the age of Thirty freaking One, I lost two of my treasures. Until now it is still painful. I lost my wife and a son in just two months that I'm away. I hated the Reevish since that day. I filed a case on them but the police didn't find much evidence. My two children have a great trauma that day. Brent left the house when he turned 9 and joined the Junior Military. All I have is Stella. She grew up into a brave woman, just like her mom. ''Sir, Ms. Stella is back from the par---'' ''Dad, you won't believe what happened there.'' I sent Stella for spying if the son of Harell Reevish did came back after years of disappearance since he was born. ''What happened?'' ''He is truly there and we freaking kissed.'' ''WHAT! That insolent brat.'' ''Calm down, Dad. I found a very important detail.'' And so Stella said everything to me. I was both shock and mad when I heard but now I know that the legend is true and these shitty things will be gone. My anger towards the Reevish's are still there but I understand them now. Stella followed Brent in the army. The two always sent me letters twice a month. A month ago, Marshal Alyosha Vasily congratulated me when both my kids ''Sir, the CEO of Bulgenian is here.'' ''Good day, Arthur.'' ''Good day, Harell.'' Stella's PoV (October 8, 2134) ''Caspian!!!'' ''Stella!!!'' Oh...What the... ''Are you my partner?'' ''Of course.'' Caspian and I become close after he came and pick me up in the classroom when Glenn needed me for his class. Peach and Rheanelle is close to him too. ''You know what, Caspian, except for my brother, your my first male bestfriend.'' ''Ehh? I thought your pretty famous, though.'' ''Ehh? Why?'' ''I mean in my class, boys always looked up to you. Some of the girls, too.'' ''Ehh. Shal;l we start our training?'' ''I'm fine by that.'' Its currently 18:42. Caspian and I just finished our training. As remembered, I was pick as a sniper and luckily, Caspian is my partner so its easy to cooperate with him. Rheanelle was chosen to be one of the doctors to help the wounded during the mission. Peach is on the way to meet the World Leaders. Pretty cool, right. Glenn said that Peach will be one of the higher-ups during the war and she will claim her throne once the minister is down. Its a bit dangerous situation but I think I'll have fun. Or maybe I'll die. But I don't wanna leave this world until I get my revenge on my mother's murderer. I don't remember any recollections of her or my oldest brother, Arthure. Hope Dad is doing great there alone. My aunt, Jacinta is the one who took care to both my brother and I. ''Ah, Stella, I heard the rumors that your Mom was killed, is it true?'' my eyes widened. ''A-ah, Yes. When I was five.'' ''Was the killer caught?'' ''Umm...nope but the suspects are whether in my family or Professor Glenn's.'' ''Huh? Why is his family a suspect?'' ''You see, there was a huge war between our family since two hundred years ago. Our ancestors, Glenn and mine, are bestfriends before that happen. Then one day, a Reevish was accused by my side of r****g the youngest daughter of the chieftain in ours. They settle it with marriage. But that marriage wasn't successful as they thought it would. A curse was set up to both families when the bickering wouldn't stop even for a day. And the curse or what we say as legends now is that, a panther cub will be lost after birth in the Reevish clan. It will be the finder of peace. And a Golden Baby Dragon will be conceived in the Fleandear Family as it will be the sign of of success in keeping the peace.'' ''That's a hell of a legend. And so, the legends is true?'' ''In the history book, it was said that the panther cub will find the baby dragon in a bed of roses.'' ''Have it happened?'' I just smirked. ''Who?'' ''Sometimes Caspian, I think your dumb.'' He just pouted. ''Glenn was lost after he was born. He got back 5 years ago.'' ''Did he find the dragon?'' His sometimes dumb and sometimes smart. ''He saw me in a bed of roses, wearing a golden dress and mask, during his welcome party.'' I saw Caspian's face to turn red. ''Goshhhhhhhh...Your love story is like a cotton candy...'' ''Cotton candy? How can you say so?'' ''Once we get a taste of its sweetness, it'll melt away...Hahahah..'' ''Gosh, that is so cheesy.'' ''I'm going back to the dorm, now.'' Oh shoot. I forgot to ask of what's with Professor Aaron and him these days. They've been clinging to each other in the most non-obvious ways. I got back to the dorm and Rheanelle is fighting with Glenn. ''What are you doing, you two?'' ''Stella!'' I dodged Glenn's hug. ''He said we wants to spend the night with you. I advice you not because that man is horny right now.'' ''Ehh? How can you say so?'' ''That was heard by Denver m**********g in the soundproof restroom.'' ''Yuck...Glenn'' I look at him. ''I'm sorry. We haven't done that for a long time now/.'' ''But Stella has a study time with me tonight.'' ''Just study with Denver, you two has been suspicious these days and you even stared at each other during my classes.'' Why is so many people suspicious these days? ''Okay. Let's divide the time. Until 23 o'clock, I'll be with Rheanelle. After that until tomorrow morning, I'll be with Glenn.'' ''That's fine.'' Rheanelle just agreed. ''That's too long!'' ''Don't be greedy, Glenn. Chose. You'll wait or I'm not coming over?'' ''I'll patiently wait.'' ''Okay. What's our topic?'' ''Blast Injuries.'' ''You want me to help you with those?'' ''Yes. So I can drill it in my head.'' ''Okay, Let's start...Explosions can produce unique patterns of injury with the potential to inflict multi-system life-threatening injuries on multiple casualties, simultaneously. The extent and severity of blast injuries are determined by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, composition and amount of explosive involved, the surrounding environment, the distance between the victim and the blast and lastly the intervening protective barriers or environmental hazards.'' And so on and so fort. I spend the night with Glenn. And we did the deed over and over again until it's only water that came out. It's Thursday tomorrow. I cannot walk. ''I am very sorry, babe. I didn't mean to disable you.'' ''You better ready when I can walk again. I'll chase you in the depths.'' ''Ohhh, scary. Now let's sleep.'' I'm gonna avenge you, my p***y.
