Read on to find out... ------------------------------------------- Keitel staggered unsteadily to his feet and loomed over Lucia. His palm slammed down heavily on the door behind. He was so close Lucia could feel his breath on her neck. She shuddered. His hair escaping over his eyes, he looked down on Lucia. Keitel's face was slightly red. "I said get out." He breathed. Lucia stared back into his piercing blue eyes unwaveringly. Keitel sniffed and pulled in close. His skin brushed against Lucia's cheek. His hot breath tickled her ear. "You really had me fooled." He whispered. "Is this still part of your game?" Lucia tried to move away. His other hand came down on the door... --------------------------------------------- Quick update: I now have new stories which are spinoffs from this one: 1.)

Bonus Chapter (28: The Empire is You)

That night at dinner, Lucia broached the subject of Ramelle again.

"I met with your sister today," She began. "She has asked a favour of me."

Keitel lowered his cup. He regarded Lucia with a deadpan stare.

"Oh?" He said flatly.

"She wants me to attend a gathering in Ramelle," Lucia stated.

"In Ramelle? Just after I tell you, you can't go." He chuckled. "It's not as though I can stop you if you have a legitimate invitation. Why bother with the pretence of asking?"

"It's not a pretence. Things are finally good between us. I thought about what you said yesterday...You're right about the door. Every time, I try to make the right choice, it backfires on me. This time, I want to be open with you."

"Do you really want to go back to Ramelle?" Keitel asked gravelly.

"No," Lucia answered straight away. "But I do want answers. I feel like I won't be able to live with my life until I know."
