The Only Son

Chapter IV

The trunk thudded against the wooden floors in Heisenbergs room, well their room for now.

Alexander was beyond tired from the fight between him and his birth mother, as well as the journey from and back to the factory and the thought of having to unpack his trunk just made him even more tired.

So he decided to just lay on the matress and do nothing, hoping that maybe he'll get some motivation to do anything else today.

"You're back earlier then you said" Alexander lifted his head a little to look at Heisenberg, before laying his head back down.

"Didn't feel like sticking around the castle for much longer than I had"

"That's understandable, are you gonna tell me what's in the trunk?" Alexander shrugged a little and sat up straight again, watching as Heisenberg took matters into his own hands and opened the trunk.

Heisenberg just found a small pile of clothing, a few books and a portrait of a man.

"It's my father" Heisenberg simply nodded, putting the portrait down gently.

He knew that Alexander had to have a father, but considering Alcina hated men with a burning pasion he had started doubting that Alexander had a father and just magically manifested.

"You doubted I had a father didn't you? I don't blame you, mother hates him, I don't even know his name"

Alexander stood up and walked over to sit next to Heisenberg, who was looking at the picture. It was clear that Alexander had inherited his fathers looks.

"I remember being a kid and secretly going out to hunt for clues about my father, I couldn't find anything" Heisenberg found it unfair, Alexander never knew anything other than the life he was living now, he deserved to know at least something about his father.

"You must've found something?"

"I did! I found little trinkets, like crystals and other things. I was naive as a child and actually made a necklace for my mother with the crystals"

"Did she break it?"

"She kept it, I don't what happened to it afterwards, but the maids tell me she kept it"

Heisenberg noticed a few items of jewelry and a notebook. A growl came from Alexanders stomach, which made both men laugh.

"I think we should get dinner? Anything you prefer?" Alexander asked, Heisenberg pretened to think about it.

"You paying?" A nod came from Alexander at Heisenbergs reply. Heisenberg clapped his hands and stood up from his crouched position.

"I'd say one of the hot meals served by Duke is deserved!" A laugh came from Alexander, who stood up.

"I could go with some 'Tochitura de Pui'." The overdramatic tone in Alexanders voice made Heisenberg chuckle.

"I can't believe you would eat something served by a man thing!" Alexander bursted out in laughter at the impersonation of his mother done by Heisenberg.

Heisenberg grinned at the laughter, it was the first he had seen Alexander this happy.

He remembers when he first saw the male, treating him to a meal.

It was another time wasting family meeting Miranda called and Karl wanted nothing more than to go back to the factory and work on his latest project named Sturm.

"My children, a extraordinary occurance happened and we shall celebrate!" Oh, so Miranda is happy, what family suffered for it or which puppy was skinned alive?

Karl also took notice of the tight grip Alcina had on her cigarette holder and then a surprise, apparently all the rumors around the village were true, Lady Dimitrescu, hater of men had a son.

'Great, why does a snot nosed brat have to be here?'

"Alexander has unlocked abilities! Once he is of age he'll be a new lord! He'll take over one of your places if you're not careful"

'Well shit the fucking bed, another problem of course!' Karl listened to the childish whinning of the freaky doll and the whimpering of Moreau.

Taking a look at Alexanders face, he was taken aback by the annoyed expression. The brat looked ready to kill everyone in the room and leave to find a nearby dinner and order a full menu of waffles and pancakes.

"A dinner shall be in order, meet tonight at the castle and try to be dignified" With that Miranda left and before anyone could also leave they were stopped.

"If any of you ass much drool on the carpet or leave mud on the floor, I'll gut you and leave your bodies for the crows" With that Alcina was the first to leave, followed by Alexander, who hadn't said a word.

"Hey! Who do you think you are?!" A high pitched female voice asked, in a rather pissy tone.

Alexander paused in his step and turned around, looking at Angie, who was staring at him expectantly.

"Don't worry about it, it's not important" Alexanders voice felt like a slap to the face, in a good way. Karl didn't know whether or not to be surprised at the burst of crows and dissapearance of the male.

"What a piece of shit" Karl muttered out and left. Angie was confused, her childish mind could only comprehend so much at a time.

Moreau didn't know whether or not to throw a hissy fit at the thought of being replaced by the son of Lady Dimitrescu.

'This is all going to be a waste of time'

"I always thought meeting you was a waste of time, that you were just another spoiled brat raised in a castle"

"And I thought you were a homeless guy with good looks and smarts" Heisenberg let out a huff at that as they both put on some decent clothing that wasn't covered in grease or sweat.

They walked through a few hallways and up a few stairs, then they reached the elevator that Duke set up his shop in they were greeted by the man.

"Good evening, gentlemen! Care to make purchase?"

"We could definitely go with a good meal? What's todays menu?" Alexander asked, Duke clapped his hands in excitement at the mention of food.

"Why, I'll make it a deal and create your favorites!" Alexander smiled and gave him a punch filled with enough Lei that would pay for whatever meals they would be served.

"Thank you for your generosity! Your meals shall be ready shortly!" With that Alexander started to eye some of the items in the shop, his eyes falling on a small silver necklace with a ring on it.

"Are you interested in it, Sir?" Alexander nodded absentmindedly, not his usual behaviour that the Duke and Heisenberg had seen of him.

"It is quite a rare item, it used to belong to a holy priest from Russia. Said to be an interesting man with many gifts" Duke explained, whilst Alexander gently reached out to touch it, only to be stopped by Heisenberg.

"Don't vampires do horribly with holy objects?"

"I'm not a vampire" Mumbled Alexander. Heisenberg still didn't let him touch the necklace, not liking it.

"Well, you're acting weird and I'm sure our found is nearly finished! Let's eat and go back to unpacking your stuff" Alexander pulled away from Heisenbergs grip and glared at the man.

"You're acting as if I'm going crazy!"

"No, I'm not! You're not acting like you!"

"You don't know me!"
