Aplises's pov
I follow master Dracul's orders and claim me a husband in form of a child and after the raid I take him to my room as he wakes up and I coil him as I stare into his feared filled eyes and smile
Boy: Mommy help!
Aplises: Your mother dead and I'm your wife Aplises Fate boy.
Boy: No your lying!
I pin my young husband on my bed and snuggle up to him
Aplises: Your my property and if you leave my side you'll die. Now my prized treasure what do I call you?
Boy: Luka Valentine.
Aplises: Cute name my husband.
I look towards the door and I see my master Dracul
Dracul: Boy come with me if you wish to prolong your life in my castle before you help your wife Aplises in the near future.
I release my husband and he quickly gets beside my master and they leave my room together as I notice a mirror on my left table and a note saying "Your greed for knowledge will reflect before you." and I quickly grab it and watch my husband walking with my master
Luka's pov
I walk beside a pale human male with a long red leather jacket and we arrive in large dining room with a view of a full crimson moon
Male: I'm assuming you heard of me but I'm Dracul the Impaler and master of this house.
I look at him scared but he looks at me with a cold emotionless stare before gesturing me to sit at the table and I comply and sit as he sits on the opposite side of me and his eyes are similar to Grimm
Dracul: Don't speak just listen until I ask for an answer human. Nod if you understand boy.
I nod fearful at him and my body just tenses up
Dracul: As Aplises's husband you must do something to aid in my goals and help her produce more of her kind called lamias. You'll be her husband until you either die to natural causes or your killed by other means like escaping or outliving your usefulness.
I just look at him intimidated by his stature before his eyes turn from Grimm to dark eyes as he stares at me as Aplise hugs me from behind after placing a plate of something horrible looking
Dracul: Aplises cooking not your strong suit so allow me to help your husband cook I can smell it from here.
Aplises: Master your so kind and caring.
He gets out of his chair and looks at me
Dracul: Boy follow me your going to learn to cook.
I quickly get off my chair and get beside Dracul and follow him to a kitchen and he just stares at me before placing a large recipe book on the counter and it says on the cover "L/n's Family Recipe book"
Dracul: Pick something boy!
I look through the recipe book and I find something easy to make being a weird dessert of sort involving fruit
Dracul: That a fruit salad my old life I'd help make it by gathering with my human mother cut the fruit if they didn't need peeling.
Luka: Can you teach me?
He puts a bowl of fresh picked fruit and he picking up an apple and gets a knife before peeling it slowly for me to watch
Dracul: Making food I haven't done in years for anyone doing this makes me feel normal boy.
