Birthright

Remember what?

Rosalind was still mumbling to herself as she entered the room filled with members of the seven families. She glanced at them and then at Belisarius, who was walking beside her.

She was actually expecting to see Lucas inside and was a little disappointed when she realized he was not there.

Instead, she saw a few familiar people. There was Martin and Dorothy Lux. Lachlan Blaize and Josephine and of course a few more members and representatives of the Seven Empires and Seven Families.

"Your Grace," Emperor Ranario Duance rose from his seat and walked toward them. "Please, take your seats…" He looked at Belisarius and offered a low bow. "May I know your excellency's name?"

"You may call me Belisarius," Belisarius replied. His response sent a hush through nearly everyone seated at the table. Their gazes shifted between Belisarius and Rosalind.

However, the two of them paid no attention to the commotion and took their seats.
