Suddenly Nobles

Messages

To the Duke of Lumiere, Zachary Lumiero

Your Grace, it feels like it hasn't seen you in a long time. How are you doing? It must have gotten better after I left the castle, right. No one will bother or dispute your words anymore. Here, I give you your life back the same as it was. Just like the circumstances in which I was never in. Peaceful life with your three proud sons. I'm giving up, Your Grace. Let me be selfish this time, for the sake of my own life so that neither side is to blame because all decisions come from my hands.

Man is free, no matter whether he is born a man or a woman. Man also has his own wings to fly wherever he wants. Including his life decisions.

Your Grace, through this letter I ask you to release me. As of today there is no need for any more strict guard or anything to arrest me, as Luvena Averish will not return to the Lumiere families again. The father-son relationship that we've played out over the past few months has been enough for me. Thank you, man, thank you,

Luvena Averish's

Zachary's hand trembled when he saw something other than the letter he was holding neatly arranged in the box. Body's squeezing. A bundle of blonde manes owned by Eve wrapped in black ribbons has become a symbol of their separation.

"This baby will be the source of your heartache in the future. Remember that, Zachary!"

Margaret's curse a dozen years ago came back to haunt Zachary's mind. His head seemed to be spinning, there was no other sound he could hear other than Margaret's curse that night, just before he left the castle pregnant with their daughter. The duke held his head, depression suddenly attacking. The guilt that he used to crave, now the flood can not be accommodated anymore so that Zachary shed tears.

He's sorry. Regret having thrown away diamonds like Margaret with their precious daughter.

If she had done nothing at the time and Margaret still lived in the castle, would Eve not have been this evil to her?

Why, if, and if it becomes a demand in his own brain.

"He cut off family ties with me, huh? So daring. Even confidently using Margaret's family surname? Who does he think he is." Zachary clasped tightly onto Eve's haircut with remnants of anger in both her eyes.

"Your Grace, there's important news! Lady Britney suddenly disappeared without a trace after a discussion event with Her Royal Highness and Prince Brodsway yesterday. I—"

"Baron, get the horses ready for me." Zachary snatched away his outermost robe that was draped on the back of the chair.

"Eh, you want to find Her Ladyship?"

"The village where Margaret lived" he answered briefly.

For the first time, Zachary chose his first wife over her affair.

"There were a dozen unfinished problems last year between us."

...----------------...

The sound of the door creaking produced by the rusty iron friction slowly woke Declan from his sleep. Prison is not a friendly place. It was far cold here, but his body quickly adapted so sleeping barefoot was not a significant difficulty for him. From far away, he could see someone standing at the door. Next to her hand was holding a torch, while the other hurriedly closed the door. Declan frowned, this guy's actions were very suspicious.

The man stopped right in front of Declan's cell. Perhaps he felt quite bothered by the stern look of the starving wolf Declan let out.

"From your gaze, it looks like you are the person I'm looking for."

Eris grew more convinced after her eyes managed to see clearly in the darkness, the clothes Declan wore were different from those of the other prisoners. What was clear, the black vest combined with the same colored pants was the capital's noble suit.

Declan stared flatly. Still sitting on the haystack, his hands were always folded in front of his chest. "We've met before?"

"Yet, but will often be in the future" said Eris convinced.

Of course it will be often, because he will work for Lady Luvena, right, Eris thought proudly.

Declan grunts. "It's very self-confidence."

From the opposite cell, a small cough was heard that interrupted the conversation of the two. Beckett, still in super-simple clothes, was holding his dry throat.

"Ethan, is your water still there? I'm thirsty."

The cell next to him, there was another man wearing a dark red suit. Seemed to sit quietly as if not disturbed by anything around him.

"Ethan!" beckett shouted annoyed.

But the one with the name is still silent like a statue.

Declan sighed. Geez, these two guys....

"Can you give him some water? Beckett's ready to die of thirst if you keep quiet like that."

Eris who noticed the interaction of the three of them blinked in confusion. Ethan, and then Beckett?

"My water is still plenty."

Hearing Ethan's reply, Beckett was able to smile broadly.

"What's? But why?!"

"My water is too special for you who are like beggars."

"Ethan!" Beckett almost went berserk. His hands had already come out of the cell bars to reach Ethan who was next to him. But to no avail, his hands were less long and their distance was also counted far. Damn it, watch out!

Eris blinked instantly. Hold still. "Excuse me.. Are you two Ethan Maverick and Beckett Harisson?"

Ethan finally opened his eyes. Glanced at Eris who was still standing in front of Declan's cell with a strange look. Because there is a big hope printed clearly in both eyes, but all this time Ethan felt himself never do good so he did not know, what Eris meant to ask them.

"Yes, that's our middle name."

"Whether your mother was named Britney .. —ah, I forgot her last name. But that's obvious, Britney, isn't it?"

Despite the doubts, both Ethan and Beckett nodded.

"So you're the one!" Eris's attitude changed by one hundred and eighty degrees. He quickly forgets Declan and runs towards Ethan and Beckett. The two looked at each other before frowning in wonder. This stranger, what's the matter?

"It's like a dream in broad daylight! Ah, yes, introduce me Eris Wallinrose. Didn't expect your fate to be so lucky because it comes from the Lumiere family. Visit us sometime, yes. Bring anything you can, especially if you bring food because they love to eat!"

Ethan and Beckett looked at each other, then shook their heads slowly.

"Sorry, but we don't know you."

"It's me, Britney's first son!" his pleasant speech was inversely proportional to the two Lumieres who turned deathly pale.

"P-first son?" Beckett turned to Ethan with a stiff gesture. "What does this mean. We have another brother?"

"Well, you never told me about us, did you?" disappointment was evident behind both of Eris's eyeballs.

"We who do you mean? If you want to make a fictional story, not here." Again, Ethan who is still not sure trying to evade. Though clearly, just one look at Eris's face is very similar to their mother.

Deep down, Ethan doesn't want to have any more siblings than Declan and Eve. He had enough with their existence, there was no need for any other brother. Really am.

"We? Our other brothers, of course. There were three who were almost the same age as Lady Luvena. They are twins and the oldest is very similar to Ethan. It's a secret, but I have to tell you. All of us except the two of you, the fact is that we were born to different fathers." Eris laughed crisply. "But whatever, sister. Now you better get out before I tell you the truth."

Eris took his gear to make the key engineering. Tinkering like an expert with a serious face, Beckett silently watched him and was convinced. They are brothers.

"No need to do it, sir."

Eris's movement stopped. He looked back, precisely towards Declan.

"You're at home in this prison, are you? I'm doing this because Lady Luvena is worried about you."

"It's nice to know that Eve can be close to a good person like you" Declan said. "But our work is also done. Even if he had to go out, he was afraid to make His Grace even more angry and affect his health. Lately he has been complaining of chest pains, we don't want to fight him for a while. Just temporarily, until his health stabilizes."

"So .. don't want to go out?"

This time Beckett nodded. "Not want, but the time is not right. The problem is blurred, we can do it anytime if you want. Here is fine, we will wait sweetly for the good news from Eve in the future."

"Being able to plan ideas to this extent, it's not wrong that she was born as Lumiere. Eve was great in her own way, really a character from our family." Ethan was proud.

"Yes, our little one has grown up, yes," Beckett joked and smiled broadly, causing both eyes to narrow.

Ethan chuckles. "Eris, since she is also your distant brother, please help us take care of her. His nature is sometimes a little annoying, but that's why someone can feel homesick for him."

Eris laughs. "Before I got here I promised that too. And I promise I'll keep her as a lady, not just because there's a kinship connection." Eris who was tired of standing finally decided to sit on the cold prison floor. Geez, why do they feel at home here. In fact, very dirty. The proof of their clothes was already black in some parts.

"Sir."

Eris turned back to her previous cell. "Yes, Lord Lumiero?"

"Can I leave a message for Lady Luvena?"
