MY SON IS TRENTON VANDERWOOD.

 Merry Christmas, Ladies and Gentlemen. I am the Lady Amorah, the head of the rogue organization, you all wanted to know what I look like, well here I am. 

      "Oh my God. This is not what I was expecting."

         "It is always the beautiful ones."

          "I still trying to wrap my finger around it."

           "Can you tell us who your son is?"

Lady Amorah smiled when KC read out the comment.

Old man Patterson was seated on his personal chair in the large living room with Ellis, Rose, and Samuel. The three got a message from Chen.

 "Power on." Old man Patterson commanded and the TV screen brightened.  "Good evening MR. Patterson, and Merry Christmas." The robotic female voice spoke.   The three of them looked at each other. Ellis looked in her Grandpa's direction. "Grandpa, we are going to chat with Ella and Trent," Ellis told him as they all stood up.

        "There is no need, you three should stay." He clicked his tongue. He didn't want them to bother Trent from proposing to Ella.

         "I want to watch the news." The TV switched to the news. 

    Lady Amorah was smiling on the screen. Rose felt like fainting they all looked at each other. There was a headline under.  'The head of rogues, reveals herself." 

Ellis looked at her grandfather who had been shaking in anger as he pointed at the screen.  "This is the woman that destroyed my family and got me kicked out of the council?" Old man Patterson was so angry, that he almost fainted.

         "Many people wondered about my son, who helped Samuel Patterson in other to expose me and stop me, from fulfilling my long dream. And that dream is where the powerful rule and the weak our slaves."        

                  'You will never succeed!'

                   'Bitch, go fuck yourself.'

                'The HOJ will stop you.'

"No one can stop it, My son would become the future ruler of the world, and you all know and love him."

             "The witch has a son!"  Old man Patterson flared up.

 My son is Trenton Vanderwood."  His picture was on top of the screen close to her. In a rectangular box, the picture was enlarged and it covered the whole screen.  Blood drained in everyone's face. Old man Patterson slowly stood up from his seat.

               "He is also the third prince of Ehteran, Alan Augustus Henrish the fourth." 

The family picture of the royal family appeared on the screen with an arrow pointing to his face.

        Old man Patterson held his chest and fell on his seat. "Grandpa!" the three ran over to him, and Ellis began to panic. "Please, Grandpa be okay, please be okay." Ellis shook her grandpa.  

               At the Terrace Trent bent on one knee. Ella covered her lips in shock and excitement.  "Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" Tears gathered in her eyes.

    "You're the best thing that has ever happened to me, I know that I have not been a good boyfriend."

             "Yes!" Ella screamed while jumping up. 

             "Really, thanks." 

            "Just put the ring on my finger!" Ella yelled.

 Trent blinked his eyes severally before putting the large diamond ring on her finger. "Oh my God!" she looked at the ring happily. Ella kissed him and he kissed her back. He held her waist and pulled her closer.

               "Stay the hell away from my granddaughter!" they both turn in his direction.  He was holding a short gun pointed in Trent's direction.  "Grandpa put down the gun, is just me and Trent." Ellis and the others stood behind and watched.

      "Ella the boy is the son of the woman who killed your parents." Trent's eyes widened. 

       'How did he know?" Trent thought to himself. 

"Grandpa, what did you just say?"  Ella was as shocked as Trent.

"It is all over the news," Rose said Ella glanced in her direction.

Trent felt like his world had turned upside down. "The news." His voice was so low the only person who heard him was Ella. "Grandpa, drop the gun. Trent isn't a bad guy." Said Ella, Her grandpa looked at her in disbelief. "Didn't you hear me, his mother killed your parents, your brother is missing, your sister is broken and the entire Patterson's name was ruined. I was kicked out of the circle of elders; my business ran down; I had to start up a new business with a different identity!"

His shoulders rise and fall as he heavily breathes.

       "Grandpa, I know that you're mad at the woman but you shouldn't be mad at him. He told Dad about the attack, and he even offered to help but Dad told him not to, he saved my life countless times, he also cleared our family's name and besides, Father knew that he was Lady Amorah's son." Ella went closer and held her grandpa's hand. 

       "Trent isn't a bad guy." She said in a low voice.

Trent was furious but mostly scared. He was scared of losing Ella. He didn't know if she was lying to her grandpa or how she found out about it.

     "I am going to my room." Old man Patterson removed his hand from hers. "And you." He pointed at Trent.  "I want you to leave my house this instant." Old man Patterson turned to leave but he was stopped by Ella.

         "Grandpa, even if you don't accept Trent. I will still marry him."  Trent looked up, he was stupefied. Old man Patterson stared at her for a while before walking away.

        Ellis ran over to Ella. They held each other's hands; Ellis's eyes were already covered in tears.

       "Take care of Grandpa for me, I am leaving with Trent."  Ellis nodded before hugging her sister. The hug ended and she moved towards Trent and stood in his front. "Please, take care of my younger sister." She hugged him too. "I will surely do that." He flashed a stiff smile. They said their goodbyes and went to park their things. Ella stopped by her grandpa's, She stood at his door and knocked but he didn't respond. She tried opening the door but it was locked.

            "Trent and I are leaving, I love you and I will miss you." Tears gathered in her eyes, she went downstairs and held Trent's hand.

 "Let's go." He nodded his head and the two left the house, Simon helped to drive the car upfront. Ella and Trent got in, she glanced in the direction of her grandpa's window but there was no sign of him. Trent looked at her. "You don't have to come with me."  His voice has lost its liveness in it. "No." she shook her head and placed both her hands on each side of his cheeks.

        "I want to come with you, my love." She gave him a quick kiss on the lips.

         "OK." He drove the car out of the compound. Old man Patterson watched with tears in his eyes.

              In the palace, the queen has gone hysterical ever since the announcement. "Look at what he and his evil mother have caused!" she yelled at the king who held his head in exhaustion. He gave Acher a helpless look. Acher returned it with a bear with its look. 

       "My wedding is around the corner, I hope this won't affect it." Fiona pouted. Ariadna who was sitting with a miserable look on her face. Sighed at her sister's lack of care.

         "Do not worry, nothing will happen, Your wedding and Ariadna's will happen no matter what." Ariadna felt like she had been electrocuted.

        In the Potter mansion, the families were discussing the same thing. 

  Cyrus was in his room when he watched the news, he was beyond shocked. 

        Ten figures sneaked into the Potter family mansion and slowly moved in the dark toward old man Patterson's quarters. The man was deep in his sleep when three figures entered his room. One of the figures is completely dressed in a long black dress and a face cover. 

          One of them came forward and sprinkled a cloud of dust in the air, when he dragged in the smoke through his nostril the figures nodded and one of them went ahead and carried him over his shoulder.

       Cyrus entered the living room and saw his mother celebrating in joy. "My baby girl isn't fat anymore." She hugged her happily. Fiona who has also regained her beauty rolled her eyes so did her mother. "Has Grandpa gone to sleep?" Cyrus asked the crowd. Robert also stood up, "I don't know, let's go check on him." The two walked out of the large and well-decorated living room. 

            As soon as they stepped out, Cyrus and Robert saw some of the men covered in black, due to their sharp sights as Vampires. 

  The male rogue threw poison darts in Robert's direction. Cyrus pushes Robert, and he also swiftly dodges the one sent at him. He looked at the rogue with an evil smile he clipped his hand and set the rogue ablaze.

 The commotion got everyone's attention, they all stepped out and saw Cyrus and Robert fighting people that were completely covered in black.
