"Welcome to Castle Diamandis, Lord Aetos."    Charilaus Diamandis had a stern look on his face, but he was deliriously handsome, if one looked for the type that had a gaze that could burn you up in seconds and there was a man next to him, a Hermes Familia Leonidas suspected by the way he kept his head b    He also noticed immediately that Persephone's Mother was supposed to be at his side, where was    His Father removed his cloak and said in his regal voice that Leonidas only heard during meetings like this one.

Stupid.    He tore the scroll and set it in the small bin next to his dressing table, taking another scroll and raising the quill to it then letting out a small groan and resting his head on the table.    What could he write?    She had not specified, she had not told him. Even the idea that she had done so to him as a test to see if he was smart enough to spark her interest or to fail her and await possible punishment made him want to bang his head on the table but he did not.    A headache would prevent him from writing any sensible thing.    "Leonidas!"    The handsome male was back at his door, banging louder then before and

"Are you even listening?" Leonidas stopped drumming his finger on the table as he looked at his best friend. "Hmm?" Loukas sighed, dropping the pencil on the scroll he was sketching on and crossed his arms. "I quit." Leonidas' eyes widened. "You cannot quit." "Try to keep up amor. I just did." "You-" Leonidas stared at his friends smug smile, his breath hitching until he finally blurted out, "You will be alone at the house and you know it. For hours without end and I know how much you -" "Enough." Loukas had a frown on his face as he glared at his friend, "So yes, I do not like being alone very much but I doubt the difference when you are not here." "I am-" "Your subconscious then," Loukas replied with an eye roll.

From the little I have heard when the servants gossip, it is going to be quite grand. I hope you know that the past couple of weeks that I have not set my eyes on you, I have missed curling my finger around a lock of your hair and counting the freckles on your cheeks but I must let you do your official duty.Nevertheless, you said that there is a need to add something new to the list of things happening on that day and I have a suggestion, though you do not necessarily have to follow it.There is a man called Alcaeus Chloros. He is a Hermes familia and the leader of the Hermes and Hestia familia though he would rather call it a clan. He is knowledged on this sort of events as he lived long enough to witness the beginning of this new world as we know it. He is also

The first thing Stylani Laskaris did as she woke up was smell the flowers that stayed next to her bed side as she did every morning.A small smile lit her face while she did so before she used a hand to brush the now moist petals, her eyes moving to the sunlight coming from outside then to the potted plant before moving it away from the rays as she whispered, "You would be safer here."Although the plant gave no reply, she still sent another dazzling smile at it then got out of her bed.As she did so, an Hestia familia walked into the room with her head bowed. "Good morning, Lady Laskaris."Pure irritation appeared on Stylani's near perfect face. "There is nothing good about seeing you when I wake up."The slave said nothing.She let out a small scoff, moving to her vanity mirror and staring at her face.
