Warning: Chapter contains Blood and Violence

You are currently being carried by your mother and its been quite a few days. She is carrying you to a bathroom so she can help wash yourself since there was no maidens in the castle. You then ask her "Mommy. Where are the maidens you have been telling me all about yesterday?" She then sighs and says "They all needed to go because I wanted to be just me and my daughters in the castle. They also missed their families" then she crosses her fingers. You don't see it happen though.

She then turns on the tap and adds some bubbles to both entertain you and to respect privacy. "I am going to help you wash yourself son. I know you not experienced but I'll help you. Back at the orphanage, you actually had to be washed for 2 minutes so the nuns rushed you. This led to you getting burns on you thanks to the hot water and fast scrubbing sponges that were rough.

She then turns back for you to get into the bath and then when you got in She turned back to you. She cleaned your arms, chest, and hair. You cleaned your legs and everything else.
You learned quite quickly how to use a sponge while your mother was using it on your arms. "Good Boy. You learn fast" She replies when you washed your legs. After the bath, your mother dressed you.

"There you go. Now you are ready for bed." You then hear screams from the hallways and she covered your ears. "What's going on?" You ask. "Nothing sweetheart. Just... follow me to bed." You then walk with her with your ears covered and she walked you to bed. "Night night y/n." Your mother says to you with a nice smile. "Try to ignore the screams coming from the hall. The girls are having good fun down there. I'll try to tell them to keep it low." She then leaves and closes the door. You stay up until the screaming stops. It takes quite a while until the castle halls go a bit more silent. Five hours to be exact. You can also hear your mother laugh too. What's going on?

You then decide to sneak downstairs. You get out of bed, listen for footsteps before leaving and open the door to leave. You can only hear your breathing as the castle is creaking with age in the floors. Then you make it to the staircase and see lots of people dying, dead or running to survive without screaming. You watch as they are struggling to survive thanks to your mother and sisters. "This is fun!" Your mother shouted and laughed but then stopped. She then looked up. You hid in the darkness but you did not get caught. "I hope I didn't wake him." "Wake who?" "Mother Someone is hiding in here!" Daniela says to your mother.

"I think I should check on him just in case. I think I'll bring him downstairs to join in the fun too if anyone gets to him." Your mother said. You jumped and sprinted to your room thankfully not alerting her. Then you hear the clacking of heels getting closer. Then the door opens.

"Son. Are you awake?" Your mother whispers from the door. You get up and nod. "Want to join in our fun?" She asks and smiles at you brightly and wipes blood off her face.

You then raise your arms up. She then laughs quietly. "How did I guess that you wanted me to carry you? Okay then. Anything for you" She then walks over, bends down and grabs you in her arms and places you on her side. "We are looking for some bad people. That's what the screaming was about. I put you to bed because there was too many and they had dangerous weapons. They don't anymore so you can take one or even two for yourself." She then giggles as she is walking down the halls.

You then grab tightly to her and you knees go up closer to your chest while your feet are clinged onto her hip. She then raises her brow. "What's wrong little one? Are you scared? Do you not like killing people? Tell me sweetheart." She said as she rubbed your palm gentley. You then tell her you were scared of hurting anyone. "I see. But it's okay. You won't get hurt. These people are bad people. You are just showing them what happens when you insult House Dimitrescu. I will be at your side." She then kisses you and rubs your cheek. She then puts you on the floor and gives you a knife. "Show me what you have got" She then points at the main area which was splashed with blood on the floor but barley on the walls.

You walk downstairs slowly and you swallow hard. You feel the hands of your mother on your shoulder. "I will be right here." Then you see Bela throw a man onto the floor screaming. She then looks at you and walks towards you but throws her weapon into the man's shirt and sticks him to the wall and bends down. "Let's finish him off together brother" She then smiles and you look back. Your mother nods for you to join your sister. Bela helps you walk towards him in pain struggling to get up and you grab your knife and look at it and tear. You did not want to kill for no reason. The other time was different. You look at him and you feel two different hands on your hands. "It's okay darling. Me and Bela will help you."

Your mother tells you in a soothing voice. You then look at the man coughing. "Please boy. Don't... do it..." "Don't listen to him baby. He is being foolish. Tell me when you are ready." You look at him. You then ask your mother. "Why is he an insult?" She then froze. She then thinks of an excuse. "He tried to hurt me" "Not... true... I only came for shelter from the... snow." Your mother then smiles and talks through her teeth "He is lying. He tried to hurt me" You then drop the knife. "Thank You" He responded quietly. Your mother understood your fear but she wanted you used to killing. She then extended her nail. "Here use this." She then puts your hand on the nail of your mother and she pushed it into the man slowly. He screamed but died quickly.

"That teaches them for coming in without invitation." Your mother then revealed it was all a lie. "But. But. But. You said he tried to hurt you." She then looked at you and went down to your level "I only did that to get you to kill the man. We will practise on it okay?" You then start to cry. Her calm face then mirrors your face without crying. "There There. It's okay." She then grabs you and puts her arms around your small body. "You are okay now. No need to be upset. We all need to know to kill without being upset." But then she thought.

She was invincible and her daughters were too (Except for cold temperatures) but you weren't. "Okay. You won't kill anymore. It is dangerous. You could die on me. I can't let that happen." She then kisses your cheek. "Come on dear" She then lifts you up to her shoulder. "Let's go back to bed now." She then walks as your eyes got heavy and your energy got low on her shoulder. "Sleep now boy" She whispered and she hushed you to sleep as she walked up to the room.
