A Seed That Blooms.

"Hey clare! whatever you're thinking about you need to tell me." I say darting my eyes at hers. "Well, I came to you since you're the only person I am able to talk to without feeling ashamed..." she said slowly, she had a slight tremble in her voice. 

"Tell me, it's ok," I replied, patting her hand carefully.

"Ellie....I made a big mistake" she blurts out digging her head against my chest crying out silently. My heart ached slightly, making me place my hand on her head, caressing it gently. 

Picking her head up, she looked at me with glistening tears "Sir .L. Kiro and I had an affair, and- and I now have his child" she stuttered, closing her eyes tightly. 

Confused by her words, all I could do was cover my mouth in shock. "W-what?" I asked, looking at her. 

"I'm so sorry, I don't know what to do. '' she cried in embarrassment. For a few minutes I sat thinking about what I can do to help. 

This is a big issue, Clarrisa isn't married to Sir .L. Kiro and having his child with the Kiro family would cause many problems. Hence why It's better to talk it out or hide it away."Clarrisa why don't you stay at Deadrae here?" I tell her excitedly.

She looked up at me thinking for a few moments, "Won't father be mad? This place is only for vampire's....And once my child is born, I'd have to move out." she spoke quietly. Thinking now, Deadrae isn't really suitable for a pregnant devil. It's cold and made of mostly marble making it even colder. 

Once the child is born, she would definitely have to move out...but where. "Well, I know this is going to sound weird, but why don't you move to human land. Castles built there are made to be warm, and are decorated in a very profound way, it would be comfortable and quiet for you. if someone asks where u are, we could say you're out on a vacation" I explained to her quickly.

Clarrisa paused to think yet again. looking back up smiling. "That's a great idea, thank you my princess" she replied happily. As soon as the stress left the cold atmosphere, I placed my hands on Clarrisa's warm stomach looking up at her proud. 

"I'm excited to see a new baby in the family, it's been a very long time. However sister, you need that Sir to be in shape and ask for a hand in marriage secretly or not." I told her with a serious face. 

She glanced at me uncomfortably, knowing this task would of course cause problems since both sides are enemies.

 Sir Leopold Kiro. He is the well known official sir by the devils, Leopold was a malicious man with hidden intents but an innocent face that covered the blood of his own. 

His eyes glazed warm blood red from any perspective , and white fluffy hair that looked bouncy like a puppy. No royal would want to mess with the evil family of Kiro's. 

My poor beloved sister had fallen into the trap of this masked lad. No wonder, that scumbag has every single trick up his sleeve. From flirting with any woman to bed or murdering his own blood, family. However his handsome face is a perfect getaway. 

His enchanting smile that captures the heart of any female. Clearly his foolish charms have worked on my sister. But whatever feelings I have towards him, he is for now my sisters, child's dad. I must do my best to help protect her and support her.

"Hey Clarrisa, do you want to spend the night over, however I'm leaving early tomorrow to make way to Yue kingdom" I mentioned. 

I can't imagine how hard it would be for her, not only does she have to hide the fact that she is pregnant, but she doesn't have someone other than me to help support her. "Oh, you're going to the human prince?" she asked, raising her eyebrows. 

I simply nodded my head, as she stood up to leave. A long silence filled the vast terrace. The loud beating of the cicadas outside was ringing in my ears. moments later Clarrisa took a deep breath and sighed softly, before bowing down half way with a warm smile.

 Casually walking away with a slow pace. I turned my head away after waving goodbye to Clarrisa, my mind had been blank since I heard her sudden announcement.

 All I could think of was how she was going to get that Leopold jerk to marry my sweet sister. I mean I do wonder how my whole family would react after hearing all of this, not to mention that scumbag is probably talking to other females whilst my poor victim sister fell into his trap.

Well I'm wishing for the best, best for them. I can't really do anything about it either.

After taking some time casually strolling through the Palace halls, I have finally reached my bedroom once more. However this time no maids are to be seen other than 2 of my important butlers, Logan (who is just new to the job) and Keith (has been working for me for a very long time).

Both of them have been standing right next to, on either side of the plain black, gold enlaced black painted oak handle. "Where are all the other maids?" I ask with a slightly confused face. "My princess, all the other maids have gone to the city, just to get extra items for our dear princess." he responded.

Ah it must be time to get new items, such as accessories and gowns for other main events. Well, you'd expect someone of my status to be picking and choosing however not for this case. If I wear something not a certain way, it can cause me to lose face and spread rumours all around the city.

With a slight nod towards Keith I head on into my bedroom. The cold breeze hit my face, that swarmed and haunted my dark, shadowless room. After slowly removing my gown, I wore my silk dress that reached right below my knees, jumping straight into bed after another long exhausting day. A headache really.
