Valerian Empire

A dark time when the creatures of shadow descended unto the tranquil human lands, making their existence known. A time followed when empires were led by humanity's conspiracy and betrayal, a time filled with hatred, but unbeknownst to the humans, they were only mere puppets, pawns of greater beings of darkness, entities with the power to crush anything and everything in their way. What happens when a small human girl catches the eye of one of these so-called greater beings, a pureblooded Lord? Can an ant such as her survive the political strifes and fearsome feuds between the lands and the monsters that control them. For those who fear vampires, ghosts and the unknown, I offer two words of advice… Tread lightly. -------- "Why should I avoid him? He was a perfect gentleman, a good man," Katherine Welcher argued in his defense. "Good or not, neither matter," Alexander Delcrov warned her, "As long as you're under my wing, you shall behave and listen to my words. Do not let any man kiss you, Katherine. I don’t want others to call you improper." "There was nothing improper about it! And I'm not yours to obey," she blurted out in annoyance, feeling her face flush with embarrassment for the second time this evening, "I mean, you can't order me aro—-" "So disobedient," he stated with nonchalance before moving his hand from her waist to her back, pulling her closer to him as they danced. His breath tickled her nape. "So you’ll only listen if you are mine?"

Puppeteers of empire- Part 4

Picking on the little berries on her plate with her fork Katie sat next to Alexander at the long table in the dinning room.

The long table was at the center of the room where important council members and the Lords sat with their companions for the day. Apart from it, round tables were placed in the room for the remaining folks.

Katie noted that it was a violin that was being played in the background as they had their dinner.

After Lord Alexander had kissed her in the hall, she was too embarrassed to move her head or eyes and therefore had kept herself busy with the food in front of her and her ears occasionally picking up conversations that was going at the table.

Lord Alexander, Lord Nicholas, the head council Reuben, Mathias who often visited the mansion and the man named Silas who apparently was Lord Norman's youngest son were the only names she knew at the table.

Elliot and Sylvia was seated at a different table.
