The Tyrant Duke Is The Father
Chapter 12 - Destructive
(You can thank me by liking this chapter. If this chapter reaches 50+ likes, I'll do another POV.)
I stalked through the corridors, hunting down the trash that was cluttered in my manor.
Now that his daughter (might be) pregnant with my child, Count Julian will use that and trick me into taking responsibility for his daughter.
Marrying me, he'll get a huge bonus and gain all of my followers and supporters in the process.
Sure, I could deny that the child was mine, but the Bastillos have a very consistent bloodline of men with blue eyes and black hair.
Never once has a woman been born in our family.
Only sons... with cursed pitch black hair and blue eyes like the treasure jewels of the ocean floor.
If she gives birth to a son with those traits, no one, not even me, will be able to deny that it is my child.
It is the curse of the House of Bastillos, to look the same as the generation previous.
I finally kicked open a door and there he stood, grinning like he had won the lottery.
Count Frederic Julian
Duke Bastillos-
I took out my sword, snarling.
Cassian Bastillos
What are you doing in MY territory?
Count Frederic Julian
Well, I've come to retrieve my daughter. I believe that you teleported her away last night.
Count Frederic Julian
I've come to retrieve her.
Selling his own daughter...
Cassian Bastillos
No daughter of the House of Julian resides here.
Cassian Bastillos
Go home before I send my dogs on you. They're famished and would quite like to take a bite out of Count Julian's neck.
He flinched but quickly composed himself, chuckling.
Count Frederic Julian
I am not offended that you deflowered my precious daughter. All men have urges, it's quite normal. Especially since my Daughter looks so beautiful-
Cassian Bastillos
Shut up. I'm not some dog in heat, but you'd like to see me as that, wouldn't you?
Count Frederic Julian
Aren't you the Emperor's dog? I'd say that analogy is quite accurate.
I walked towards him, my eyes wide and ready to murder him when his eyes drifted up.
No, she's not here, is she? So they are working-
But all that came out from behind a pillar was one of the pups that she was holding.
One of them, (maybe Pumpkin) walked towards the middle of the stairs and sat down, snarling and barking repeatedly.
Count Frederic Julian
My, you even have dogs in your house.
No, Cassian Bastillos, exercise some self restraint.
Then, the pup ran down the stairs, yapping and barking until it jumped up and landed on the Count's face.
Count Frederic Julian
ARGHHHHH! GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF!
The knights that accompanied him tied to get the pup off, but it jumped off of his face just after scratching it up.
The pup then ran back up the stairs and behind the pillar again.
She is here, just staying hidden.
Count Frederic Julian
Y-You... I'll tell the Council about this! They'll have your head.
Cassian Bastillos
My head?
My eyes turned darker as I terrorised any notion that he had above me.
Cassian Bastillos
Don't come to my territory again. Don't even step foot in here again.
Cassian Bastillos
Or else I'll feed you to my wolves, Count or not.
Count Frederic Julian
I will find my daughter! I know that she's in here!
Count Frederic Julian
I'm going to return with the Council! You're keeping my daughter hostage!
Gosh, he's so annoying. At least his daughter is smart about her arguments.
Cassian Bastillos
Leave. And don't try and force me attend one of your parties again.
The Count showed himself out, cursing under his breath every second before the door shut.
I sighed, rubbing my forehead again before walking up the stairs only to see Annabeth leaning against the pillar, hugging her legs. Upon seeing my silhouette, she looked up and smiled.
Rosalie Julian
Did you see Pumpkin? He's going to be a ninja when he grows up, right?
The door barked in agreement.
Her eyes were sparkling as tears ran down her cheeks. She tried to cuddle the wolf pups, but to no avail.
Somehow, there was something irresistible about her crying.
It made me want to see her cry more. She looked... almost mesmerising when she cried.
