After dark

Smoke Evaporates Blood dries.

'Blaizes' Pov

I sat in the cushioned chair waiting for this long meeting to end, My brothers sat scattered around the table. " Most of you already have Madams or Masters so I do not expect you to be here when the guests arrive assuming you would be aiding your Supriroers" Lord Santo explained/hinted to the servents that have now lined the ballroom walls.

"If any-" I blocked out his talking as I looked out towards the garden. I saw the familiar red dress pass by the window, My mother's dress danced about the garden in its deep red color and thorn-like corset in the form of a body. Angered fueled my system as I watched kova walk on the grass with that poor slave boy, in my mother's dress.

My legs straightened as I stood up, my shadows noticeably dark and rather erratic. "Who is in charge of Madam Night?" my brothers and lord Santos giving me confused looks as I watched a young girl's hand raise. Her hood covered her face just like the rest of the crowd, " did you dress her?" I asked the servant. Her head hesitantly nodded, my blood ran hot as I walked down to the servent. " And why have you dressed her in my mother's gown?" the words burnt my throat as they left my mouth. She stayed silent, " When I'm speaking to you, you speak back" I grabbed her face lifting it. her hood falling off her short curly hair.

A hand is placed on my shoulder causing me to drop her face, I looked to see Demoncus and his questioning gaze. " You didn't give her permission to speak Sir" the realization hit me as I grabbed the hood of the girl and placed it back on her head. " I give you permission to speak" she bowed down on one leg, " You spoke word Madam night wouldn't have clothes so I grabbed a dress out of you mothers dresser, to my notice that dresser was to be filled with extra dresses the queen would give out as gifts, not her personal dresses" she explained her mistake of giving kova the dress.

I looked out the window now seeing no one there, why would my mothers' dress be with extras?. I rolled my eyes, probably a stupid servent messing up the dresses when moving them around. I walked out of the ballroom and to the garden. 

The wet air hit my face as I opened the door, the smell of the flowers and woodland lined the kingdom filling my senses. Laughter filled my ears, I looked towards the bench that was placed where my mother would spend her days sitting in the rain with me and m  brothers. 

Kova didn't deserve my mother's dresses. For that fact No one did.

Kova POV.

I smirked as I sat up and pulled west with me, "where to sire?". My hand landed on the handle of the door, " Hmm I think we shall go to thye Royal Garden" he smiled as he walked up to me. I slowly opened the door and looked around the vacant hall, I looked back and smiled as I stepped out of the door. We both jogged or in my case a weird trot down the halls, "Over there" Westin whispered. I looked towards the direction he pointed in, a glass door with wilderness on the other side. 

I turned my head back with the smile that has been glued to my face for at least 10 minutes. We ran down the stairs and threw the door, noticing no guards we stepped out into the green garden. " 10 spins and the first one to that bench wins!" Westin ran out towards an open part and begun spinning. I rolled my eyes as I kicked my shoes off, if someone were to see us it would surely cause trouble. I thought to myself as I began to spin.

I looked towards a dark rose bush.

1 I spun around until I saw the rose bush again.
