"Are you positive she'll be alright, Caro Fratello?"

"She will be, I hope. As far as my vision goes, I don't see anything out of the ordinary."

"Relax you two. You've been at it since she returned all bloody like hell. Castiel, as her older brother you should be worrying about wolves coming near her rather than her making a fuss. And you Caspian, as her twin rather than nagging Castiel, you should make sure she's ready in time. Proper etiquette is best shown on early arrivals."

Caspian rolled his eyes as Castiel scoffed "And you dear Cyrillus, you shouldn't act twice your age."

All of a sudden the door bursted open giving them a slight fright "Smettila di fare cazzate su Ciara maledizione."

They turned to look at their eldest brother, Cassius, with puzzling looks. "First of all, uh hello? Did mom not scold you about eavesdropping? And second, you got to stop appearing out of nowhere. It's freaking me out."

Cassius eyed Cyrillus for a minute before turning his gaze back to the other two. "Mom calls you all for supper before getting ready. And quit smearing Ciara's name. She doesn't like that nor is she what you think she is. She's not stupid to enough for a bloodbath to occur."

Cassius left within nano seconds, leaving their thoughts at bay. "Atleast we know who Ciara resembles." Said Castiel

"Shut up damn it." Caspian glared at him.

Tonight's supper won't go as smooth as it always had. Cyrillus being one to blame.

"Sei pronta sorellina?" Cassius walked in, his mouth hang low as he took in her sister's look. "Quando dicono che i vampiri sono seducenti, allora ti prego di non partecipare. Non posso incolpare i lupi affamati né i vampiri lussuriosi che non sono in grado di fissarti a bocca aperta. Dang Ciara, you look out of this world."

Ciara smiled at her brother. "I wish I could brother." She chuckled "But on the bright side, you look dashing yourself. Heather's one lucky vamp I say."

If only vampires could show a tint of red, Cassius could've been a blushing mess by now. "It's actually the opposite. I'm lucky as hell, having her as my beloved it really makes this decaying life an excitement!"

Ciara rolled her eyes as she shook her head, groaning "Oh bloody hell, you and that damn love." 

Cassius then smiled as he shook his head "You may not know it now, but once you find your beloved. All thoughts, hatred, loneliness, and that empty spot in your heart will vanish. Replacing it with Love. You'll feel as if you have found a purpose, and most especially, you'll feel complete."

Ciara smiled bitterly "Fratello, beloveds make vampires weak. To you it's a blessing but to me, it is a curse. A distraction that can destroy you, both body and soul. It'll tire you out, physically and mentally. To me, beloveds are just a card in this game of life, a useless death card."

"You may say it now, but trust me. You'll be walking on egg shells the moment you set eyes on your beloved. It happened to me, why can't it happen to you?"

Ciara chuckled "We'll see brother, we'll wait and see. I may not know of the future, but every decision I make decides my fate. And I have decided a no beloved future for me, nor a, what do humans call it? Right. Friends-with-benefits shit."

Cassius just chuckled as he smiled at his younger sister. "Enough of that, I won't argue with you. It's not my right to pry nor it is my right to judge. But I do have a right and that is to escort you out Ms. Lazarus. Like I always say, Proper etiquette is best shown on early arrivals."
