"Duke Eros Feodorovna, did you kill your brother?"
Prosecutor Bepa stood there with a fake smile glaring at him with her dark penetrating eyes waiting for him to answer as he sat in silence.

The game has begun and the mouse is in the trap.

He felt all the eyes of the room staring in his direction hearing a light cough and whispers that tormented his mind. The dark room was like a stadium filled with chairs that surrounded the center. The atmosphere was stiff.

"No."
He responded bluntly, finally looking up.

Everything has begun.

Everyone amused as they leaned in like hungry animals to see every little step taken by the young boy.
They knew that Eros was matured for his age but being the center of attention unease him. He wanted a plain vanilla life as opposed to one of a heavy title.
He was no hellion matter of fact was the total opposite. A quiet boy with charm and great intellectual abilities.

"What if he was pretending all along maybe he really did it. He must be great at lying."
"You can't trust a boy with that much power. He probably killed his brother to get rid of competition for even more power. People like him have hunger for more glory."

Disturbing speculations spread all over the country the majority of the people believing he was sinful. Eros knew it all.

"Gosh, what a pain he is obviously an innocent man."
She said rolling her eyes.

"Shhh, Victoria be quiet! Everyone will hear you."

The tall brown hair man put his hand over Victoria's mouth  but like a reflex she instantly pulled it away.
"How can you pity such a man?"

"Whatever Tino you know I am right... stop being such an overprotective brother I don't need it ugh.. your such a pain in the back."

"As if! You only say he is innocent because you like him. Looks can be very deceiving. I even warn you not to fall for him but you never listen to me."

Victoria's olive eyes widen gasping in disbelief as her cheeks turn red making Tino realize what he had said.
"WAIT I didn't mean that..."
But before he could say more she was already up walking to the other side of the room.
