~~PART 17~~
"Ohhh, I am not mentally stable enough for this." Nico rubbed his eyes.
"Oh, c'mon! Don't act like this never happened before, with Percy." I stood up. I felt weak, dehydrated and hungry. If I'm honest with myself, I was feeling a little high, too.
"You-y-you have a point." My pap still looked starstruck. I hugged him, tightly.
I glanced at my dad and saw that he was frowning. "Is something wrong, Will?" I asked.
"Yeah." His expression changed to confusion. "How do you even know about Percy? That was way back, way before you came to Camp. It was all the way back to the Second Titan War." He explained.
"I... heard stories?" I said, making it sound more like a question.
Will came closer. "You were dead."
"I was not. I mean, I'm standing here." I chuckled.
"Look, I have seen my fair share of dead people. You looked more dead than Nico when he arrived with the Athena Parthenon." He inched closer and closer, almost in my face.
"Will." Nico said, softly.
"No, Nico. I have a bad feeling about her." Will moved his glaze at Nico. "C'mon, we were on the same page yesterday."
"What?" I asked, confused.
"We don't trust you, Darkwood." He pointed a finger at me, accusatively.
"William, take it easy." Chiron appeared out of nowhere. He put a hand on Will's shoulder.
"Mary, come with me." He reached for my hand. I jerked back. I was about to protest, when somebody did it for me.
"You are not taking her anywhere, centaur." Katrina spoke through her teeth, glaring at Chiron.
"Where were you?" I asked them. They ignored my question.
"Just behind you. You're freshly dead. I've been down there for hundreds of years. It's harder for me to escape." They smiled at me.
Chiron stepped back wide eyes. "Mary. How do you know her?"
I frowned. "Them. Why do you care?" I crossed my arms.
"Do you know who she is?" He asked.
"They. Yes. They're Katrina." I said.
"She's very dangerous. Please step away and come here." He offered me a hand.
"FUCKING THEY, CHIRON." I threw my hands in the air. "And I don't mind some danger here and there." I pointed a finger at him.
"Calm down, darlin'" Katrina grabbed my shoulders. They moved their gaze on Nico.
"I missed you." They smiled melancholically.
"Excuse me?" Nico frowned.
"I missed you." They repeated.
"Right...because we've met before." He raised an eyebrow.
Katrina nodded. "Don't worry. You'll remember me." They smiled sweetly.
"You- you know my fa- my brother?" I asked, confused. "OH- you do. I remember. You never answered my question, how do you know him?" I tilted my head.
Nico, Will and Chiron were standing there just as confused as me waiting for Katrina's answer.
"I promise it will all be clear. But I need to take you some where, where you won't be in my way." They pursed their lips.
"In your way- what?" I took a step away from them.
They sighed, then suddenly grabbed my wrists. "Ipi rnufo go vkiup îi qapui vkiup"
The only thing I heard before vanishing into darkness, was my pap' screaming my name.Next thing I know, I drop on some floor.
"What the fuck?" I groaned and rubbed my forehead. I opened my eyes and gasped. I was in... some sort of massive mansion or maybe a palace. The idea is that the place was BIG. Katrina and I were standing in a long hall way. There were paintings on the walls, of, I'm guessing, royals (side note: those bitches were hella good looking). There were also a few chambers. What caught my attention, was the pattern on the doors. I've seen it before, on the cover of the book I freed Katrina with.
"Are you okay?" They asked as they offered me a hand.
"Oh. Oh. So after you kidnap me and bring me to gods know where, you have the audacity to pretend like you care for me?" I crossed my arms.
They rolled their eyes. "Do you want my help or not, Ms. Solace- di Angelo." They mocked me.
"...Yes." I grabbed Katrina's hand and got up.
"Where are we?" I asked.
"Sanguis Luxuriae Domus." They smirked.
"Oh my god that's latin. Translate please." I crossed my fingers.
"The BloodLust House. It's pretty cliché, I know. We didn't think so much when we named it." They chuckled.
"Who's we?"
"The Demoastus family." They pointed at the paintings.
"Yeah, they didn't have so much inspiration on that either. Their last names is literally their parents ship name." Someone giggled, behind me.
I went to turn around to see the new fella, but Katrina grabbed my shoulders and kept me in place. They looked at the person, and glared.
"I told you to stay in your room."
"Eh, I don't recall. Is this her?" The mysterious, judging by the voice, guy, asked. He sounded about 30 years old. "Is this my daughter?"
I chocked on air. "Mi scusi?!" (Excuse me?!). I looked with wide eyes at Katrina. They turned me around to be greeted by...my pap'?
I stood there gaping at him, before trying to make a full sentence. "How-Why- What?! I thought you were staying with dad? What are you doing here?"
"Mia cara, sono sempre stato qui." (My dear, I've always been here.) I was over the universe confused.
"Bianca. He's not Nico. Not the Nico you know." Katrina confused me even more, if it was possible at this point.
"Non ha alcun senso."(That doesn't make any sense.) I crossed my fingers at the back of my neck.
"Actually it's the opposite. THIS-" They pointed at the man before me. "-is Nicolai Minos di Angelo. Your father on the other hand... is very much not." They looked at me with pity.
"Vieni con me, Bianca."(Come with me, Bianca.) said the man. Katrina looked at me and nodded at him. They pushed me towards him. I followed them both, into a room. Katrina sat down on the bed and closed their eyes.
The guy laughed. "Siediti."(Take a seat.) He gestured to the armchair.
"This is going to be a long story so I WOULD APPRECIATE IF THE ONE WHO CAN EXPLAIN IT BETTER WOULDN'T SLEEP!" He screamed at Katrina. They groaned and flopped on the sofa, by the man. He took a deep breath:
"So..."A/n: Oh my god, thank gods i finished this chapter. I really wanted to work at it this past few months but school is stressing me out with the 8th grade exam (in my country, you take an exam before high school, so you can attend.I think it's different in other regions).
Also I used Google Translate for the Italian dialogue, so Italian speakers, don't come at me.
