Lucian Morningstar

THE PAST!

“You want to know, what happened that day! Do you think you are strong enough for the truth?” she was determined until she saw the dark aura he was emitting from his actions.

“Yes-yes!” she stuttered as she moved backwards, missing a step she faltered and fell on the bed on her back and her back. She moved backwards on the bed while maintaining eye contact with him.

“Are you sure!” he laid atop her but not completely so as not to crush her with his weight he supported his weight with his elbows. He closed the gap between their face and they were exchanging their breath. Lilith closed her eyes and relished in the feeling of Lucian’s breath within her. Lucian’s eyes turned flaming reddish gold. It wasn’t like the usual burning red, it was different, she felt different Lilith’s heart was racing in her chest with every touch of Lucian’s body against hers. And the way his eyes peered into hers took her breath away. Even so, she was confused and wondered what was going on in Lucians mind. The sweet smell of his body covered in expensive cologne was driving her crazy and she was scared of what she might do herself if she doesn’t stop him.

His lips graced hers sensually and her lips parted on its own seeking for kiss, her whole body was on fire, she wanted him against all her better judgment. She was weak to her knees with a sudden desire she couldn’t control. Lucian had no intention of stopping at just kissing her, he wanted more of her and yet even he couldn’t tell why the desperate desire. It wasn’t his demons, so what could it be? He wondered. He placed his lips on her nape and kissed her there passionately. She opened her lips and a moan escaped from her lips. He grabbed her thighs and ran his hands up to her breast and caressed it passionately as he nibbled on her neck. She moaned with pleasure and tried her best to place her hands on his chest. She pushed him away lightly. He chuckled and rose up from her body and said;

“If you can’t handle me love, you can’t handle your own bitter truth.” Lilith was still breathing deeply with her eyes fixed on Lucian. She got up hastily and got dressed and swiftly ran out of the room. She had no idea where she was going to but to but all she knew was that she needed to leave Lucian at that moment. She bumped into Vlad while running in the hall way and faltered in her steps, as she was about falling he held hands firmly and said;

“Be careful now treasured grand-daughter in-law! You are running away from my naughty grand-son aren’t you?” he smirked Lilith was shy. She looked away from Vlad and said;

“That’s not true Grand-pa”

*** 

Lucian slumped on the bed after Lilith ran out of the room, he murmured; I have never been this pathetic for a woman in my life!” he closed his eyes and all he could see are images of Lilith in his mind. He looked outside into the garden in front of the custom made window. He opened the sliding windows and went into the garden. He stood still there and said;

“I need to keep my distance from Lilith a bit or I might regret it latter!” while he was gazing at the view he heard Kathy’s footsteps coming closer to him and he said;

“Sister! Curious aren’t you?” he asked her blankly

“Yes brother! tell me everything that happened thus far!” she answered him sounding desperate.

“Where do I begin?” he asked with a smirk on his face

“Genesis!” her reply was short but certain

Lucian turned to Kathy and explained everything that had happened to Lilith from genesis to exodus and in details. Kathy was surprised to her core, but there was only one hypothesis she could draw from all the explanation she got and her own conclusion;

“She’s not a wolf, not a Vampire, and definitely not a witch and she is certainly not normal!” Kathy explained to Lucian simply

“Is that even an answer?” he asked Kathy agitated

Vlad took Lilith for a walk in the garden outside the house. They were seated on the bench in silence admiring nature when Vlad decided to joke around;

This morning you and Lucian where ….” Lilith cuts him off saying;

“It’s really not what you think… it’s just that I slipped and fell” she explains desperately. Vlad chuckled and said;

“You’re so adorable…” he looked at her in wonderment and said;

“I still remember the first day I met you! ... my grandson must have put you through a lot but if you two really like each other you must be prepared to face his demons with him… you see a lot of people want him death” when Lilith heard that a lot of people wanted Lucian dead her heart tightened, she hugged herself tightly and asked;

“Who would want him death?” pain was in her eyes as she asked.     Vlad could see her pain and the depths of her feelings for Lucian even though she can’t admit to herself, he looked at her seriously and continued talking

“That young man wasn’t that lucky from the beginning… even his favorite brother is after him now! And it was all due to the seed of hatred sawn by a step mother who couldn’t truly love a step so like her own children” a maid interrupted them by serving Lilith and Vlad each a mug of coffee. She smiled at them lightly and excused herself.

“You see Lucian is more like the illegitimate son of his father. It happened a long time ago that his father was in love with a visiting princess that visited the land of Hams-lot.

977 BC,

East Europe,

Hams-lot.

It was one of those days that the Royals will order the Draco’s to make an Elixir for the sick prince Collins II. Back in the days Vlad’s Magic was the best in all of Hems-lot and it couldn’t be rivaled with any. He had just finish mixing up the concoction, so he called Killian and gave it to him to take to the castle. On the way to the castle he found a broken carriage, normally a wizard was supposed to run once in contact with a royal’s carriage but something or someone called out to Killian, that he couldn’t just ignore, so he followed the call. He found himself standing in front of the fallen carriage, he raised the fallen carriage up and opened it, only to find the most beautiful lady he had ever come in contact with in his life. He helped her out of the carriage and as soon as she came out he realized her status with the refection of the sun on her body, everything she was wearing was shimmering, the moment she came out of the carriage, he swiftly fell on his knees and greeted her;

“A good day to you your highness!” she smiled at the sight of how his curly hair, flowed in front of his face when he bowed. She answered him saying;

“A good day to you all gentleman!” he raised his eyes to look at her and at that moment he couldn’t look away anymore as he was immediately captivated by her beautiful sea green eyes.

“I am lost! My men and I were attacked on our way coming here, I am afraid I don’t know if they are alive or not, since they struggled to safe me” she explained to the young handsome man sadly.

“I am sorry your highness! But can I assist you in any way?” she gestured for him to go down on his knees and he did just that. Smiling at him she climbed his back and said;

“Take me to Cornelius Collins I castle that’s my destination” he did as she commanded and picked her on his back and walked her to the castle. The walk was a silent one as she fell asleep on his back. When they arrived they were attacked by the guards and some royals;

“How dare a nobody touch the princess Morningstar!” Killian was confused, he didn’t know what to do, but regardless of how tensed the situation was he held on tight to the princess, who was almost snoring on his back, he wouldn’t let go of her but he kept trying to wake her up;

“Princess I think it’s a good time for you to wake up now!” but the princess only tightened her arms around Killian’s shoulders and whispered;

“Don’t wake me up now! Your back is so comforting and you smell like sweet berries and Lavender” she exhaled on the bare skin of his neck and embraced him some more. The armed men saw that since the princess wasn’t getting down, one of them wanted to land Killian a Slap on the face, but was instantly repelled by the strong slap that Princess Morningstar gave him on his hands. He yelped in pain. Finally, she gently dropped down from Killian’s back saying;

“You set of nincompoops, dare lay a hand on my savior! When I was left helpless on the road he helped me. From today henceforth you all will bow when you see him passing by and anyone who dears to speak rudely to him will face my wrath.” With Kilian’s eyes on her, for a moment he thought he saw her eyes turn glowing gold. She dragged him into the castle and to the hallways. She showed him her chamber and said;

“Come visit me anytime you wish! For I will be staying here for a while. Tell me anything you want to and I will listen!” Killian was like ‘yeah right!’ in his mind as he made his way to the Prince’s chambers and presented him with the elixir before he hurriedly returned home. On his way home he couldn’t help but to ponder about the strange lady he met. Beautiful! Rare in character! and she was definitely a creature out this world he thought.

Ever since Killian left the castle he has never been the same, all he sees was the princess’s face and all he heard was her sweet voice ringing in his ears calling out to his name Killian! Killian…
