Harold

I entered my office to only find Bradley standing by the window already present before me. He didn't eleven turn at my entrance which was a dead giveaway that he was pissed. "Harold. How could you let this happen to my eldest son? My heir. I believed I specified he was to be kept out of this place." He stated matter-of-factly and never turned around. "I know I said I would keep an eye out for him and I did my best to make sure he was safe. I kept in contact with Diane as much as I could. I even made trips out to see him as much as I could without him detecting that I was there at all. I am only one person. I can't predict everything that is bound to happen and I have responsibilities, children of my own even, brother. I beg your forgiveness for what I could have done better and hadn't but I will not be made to feel guilty for what I cannot control. As per your visit here, you may also come to realize that what Lupus has become has not completely destroyed him. He appears to have adapted very well to this lifestyle and I only wish for you to see it for yourself before you judge so harshly. Your anger towards me is justified yes and if you feel the need to lash out then so be it. My only request is that we take it outdoors if we must come to such daft means." I said walking to my desk and sitting in my chair. Only then did he turn away from the window and towards me. Sitting on the edge of my desk and fixing me with this stare for the longest period of time. "I believe it is time I finally see my son." Then he checked something on his wrist and left.

I stood from my chair and walked over to the window, curious as to what he could have been staring at for so long. There was nothing there to my relief. Maybe he had just been staring at the sky. Just as I was about to turn away I saw this figure jump out of the bushes in my peripheral. I turned back but it was only a stray cat.

Then it would seem strange to others but to me, it wasn't because of the world I live in. The cat turned into a young girl, still keeping her cat ears and tail. Only the problem was that she was not one of my students. I've never seen her before. I had no idea where she had come from nor how she got onto the grounds without being caught before. We have certain protocols for this and even though Liam and Rose don't always particularly like to follow such things. They would have never allowed something like this to go down. I immediately sent for the sentinel. Told them to bring her into my office unharmed so we may speak and if she meant to harm then she would be sent elsewhere. After speaking with her I would need to find Liam along with Rose and have a long discussion. Bradley being here is much less of an inconvenience than this matter.
