Lucien awoke from his slumber, the bright sun shining on his face. Brixton stood there with a scotch in his hand. "Good morning, King Lucien Zańe." He smirked at Lucien and Lucien stood up. "What a day to be King." Lucien sips the drink and begins to get himself dressed in a black and white suit. "You have duties, sir." Lucien chugged the rest of his drink. "No shit." He hands Brix the cup and zips his pants up. Brix poured him more scotch and handed him the Prince's crown. "Thank you, Brixton." There was a gentle knock on the door and Brix opened the door up. "Lucien." Said Bella and Lucien chuckled to himself. "Back so soon?" Lucien put his crown on and took another sip of his scotch. "Problem?" Bella asked Lucien and Lucien shook his head. "No, no. That's right you don't have any friends." He smiled to himself as Brix walked over to him and began to fix his tie. "Don't worry, I'm not here to make friends. Candy is dead and when your sister finds out..." Lucien talked over the woman peeking over Brix's head and pointed his index finger at her. "I wish Rosemary would come back here. Once she steps foot inside England I will know and I will kill her." Lucien spoke loud and clear for Bella to hear and to understand. "Why are you so angry all of the time?" She asked The Prince. "Ask Rosemary." Lucien whispers and watches Brix dust off the suit. "I'm asking you, Prince." Replied Bella and watched Lucien step away from his butler to look at himself in the large mirror on the wall. "I, myself, wouldn't necessarily call it anger. I act as the villain..the terror you all illustrate me as." Bella made a confused face and Lucien walked towards her. "You, Lucien, are the Villian. You made yourself into this hideous beast..and yet you still decide to call yourself a man." Lucien smiled as he listened closely to this woman. "Everyone enjoys something minacious. You're all too sensitive to reach into the darkness and play with it like it is a toy." Bella took a big step back away from Lucien, "Killing isn't a toy. It's the devil's work. You're not as bad as you make yourself out to be Lucien." Everytime this American woman speaks, it's a joke. "So then I'm the devil..no matter how many times you decide to bring it up it will not change me and what I enjoy doing I'm never going to be sorry for killing anyone." Lucien leaves his room and Bella follows behind him. "You are so irritating." Bella told him as they made it to the bottom step. They walk to Lucien's study and he sits down in his chair. "What I am, is the King." Lucien smiled at Bella as she rolled her eyes. "For like a week." Lucien puts his feet up on his desk. "More like a day." He replied and then a maid walked into the study, knocking. "King Lucien..may i come in?" The woman asked him and Lucien nodded at her. "The Warden said one of the Guards is ill.." He nods at her. "Very well..tell the Warden we have our reinforcements, love." The maid nodded at the Prince. "Also, tell the Royal Enforcer that I must speak with him about Rosemary." She nodded once again and scurried away. "Why do you need to talk with the Royal Enforcer about Rosemary?" Lucien pulled a pile of papers out the desk drawer and began reading them. "Mind your business." Bella sat down in the chair across from Lucien off to the side. "What are you reading?" she asked him and Lucien sighed. "About the Royal Diplomat. He was fired for harassing one of my maids." Lucien put the paper down and placed his hands together as the Royal Enforcer walked into the study and bowed. "Good morning, Your highness." Said the man and Lucien gave a smile. "Good Morning, Junior. Rosemary is banned from England permanently. If there seems to be an issue you must come to me about it." The Royal enforcer nodded at Lucien. "Yes, sir," he said confidently. "And if by any miracle chance Blissa Bower comes by, please inform me before letting her through my palace gates." The two men mutually nodded at once, understanding each other. "You can't banish Rosemary forever." Bella spoke and he stared at her for a moment and then slammed his fist on the desk. "Did I not mind your business?" Bella chuckled, "I don't care! She is your sister." Lucien quickly got up as did the Royal Enforcer. "King Lucien.." He ignored Junior and began to shout. "As far as i'm concerned i have no bloody sister and as for you..you come to my home..threaten me and sweetheart you have no meaning. Your presence is just my annoyance." Bella laughed to herself, "Cut the shit Lucien, I'm not afraid of you." Lucien nodded and Bella smiled. "No? You will be. Follow me around all day and then tell me you're not afraid." Lucien states and then looks at the Royal Enforcer. "You're dismissed." Junior nodded and left the study quickly. The Prince sat back down behind the desk and began to look at the papers. "I still want to meet Blissa." Hearing her constant need of attention annoyed Lucien. "Bloody hell, I have adult things to do..if you want to toy around with a whore then so be it." Lucien spoke badly about Blissa. One of his guards walked into the study a few minutes later and said a code to The Prince. "B,67." he simply said to Lucien. "Now?" he asked, confused and the guard nodded at him. "Yes, sir." Lucien stood up and walked towards the door. "Guess you'll be meeting her now then." He grabbed Bellas arm, pulling her to stand up and she began to walk with him. "I can walk by myself!" She screeched loudly which only made Lucien's grip tighten. The guards opened the palace doors, the Prince and the woman made their way towards the palace gates, where Blissa stood behind. Lucien shoved past the guards to see 'eye to eye' with Blissa. "Miss.Bower." Lucien calls out to her as she gives him a grimace look. "Let me speak to the King." She commands him. "Eh, two things. Do not yell in my face, and you're speaking to him right now." Lucien smiled at the woman, keeping a calm expression. "Oh! Great. A murderer is our King." shouted the woman and Lucien laughed. "This is Blissa?" Asked Bella who looked Blissa up and down with a smile. Lucien nodded at the woman beside him, "Indeed." Blissa grabs the bars of the gates and shakes them. "Let me speak to the Real King." she shouted and Lucien rolled his eyes. "And say what? That I killed your goof boyfriend or- or Candy?" Blissa nodded, "Yes!" Lucien was getting annoyed with her constant need to shout. "If you continue to scream I'm going to slam your head into these bars." said Bella and Lucien laughed at her. "Oh I suppose your friends with slut killers too?" Lucien smiled hearing Blissa's words. "One: she's not my friend and two: she's not whatever you define killer as." Bella rolled her eyes at him." Guards you can take her away." Blissa gasped, "No Lucien..if you care for me as you say you do..please let me in." Lucien laughed in her face, "But I don't care. Go find someone you don't hate to confide in." He states and Bella looks around confused. "I do hate you." Lucien smiled listening to Blissa. "So you've said." He replied "You killed everyone who cares for me! You... fucking lunatic. You deserve nothing! I hope Candy and i fucking kill you." Lucien lets go of Bella's hand and grabs ahold of the bars in front of him. "What did you just say?" Lucien whispered so Blissa spoke again in a whisper. "We will kill you." States Blissa and Lucien quickly grabs her hair and slams her head into the bars. "Where is she?" Shouted the Prince who was clearly in shock that his ex-girlfriend was still alive and breathing. "How is she still alive?" He asked and Blissa laughed loudly in his face and pulled away from his tight grip around her head and ran to her car. "Soldiers..keep your eyes out for Candy." Lucien grabs Bellas hand once again and forces her to walk back into the castle with him. He slammed the door shut and tossed her onto the floor and kneels down next to her. "Did I not say to mind your own business?" Bella scoffed at him, "if you're going to snatch me around all day then it is my business." Lucien smiled and placed his hands together. "Remember you do not compare to me. I am the Prince and you're...an American. So, if I say shut your mouth, you shut your damn mouth, Isabella." Lucien said to her and then turned to look at one of his men who called him over. Lucien pulled Isabella up off the floor as he stared at one of his guards. "Sir, we found a woman snooping around in your room." Lucien nodded at the man and grabbed Isabella's arm once again. "Come with me." Lucien and Bella made their way down the cold dark hallway and into the dungeon. "Get me out of here.." Screamed the woman and Lucien chuckled hearing her voice. "Rosemary." He states and she gives him a panicky look. "Brother, please..Let me go." She begged him and he took a step closer to her. "Even after I kick you out of my kingdom, you still find a way to disobey me." Bella watched the siblings talk to one another. Lucien pushed Bella into the guards as Rosemary gasped. "Relax." A guard said to Bella as she squirmed at their tight hold on her arms. "Lucien, I heard what happened to Candy. I know you must be mourning her and I'm sorry." Lucien laughed loudly and then took a second to hold onto his stomach while he laughed. "You're a fool to even think that I would care for her, and to be mourning a murder that I committed." Lucien smirked at Rosemary, "You bastard." She cried out to her brother. "You're in no position to be calling me names. Now, if you don't tell me why you were snooping around my room..I'll start taking your teeth out and when I have them all I will make a necklace out of them and send it to your brother Matthew." Rosemary made a weird noise and gave a smile at Lucien. "I came here because I missed you..truly." Lucien ran his veiny hands against his face for a second and chuckled to himself. "Snooping around my room is missing me dearly?" Bella was trying to get out of the guard's grip. "I don't care what you have to say anyway, I'm going to kill you either way." Bella began to scream to try and stop Lucien. "Stop!!" Lucien looked at her a long second, "Shut the fuck up. If you talk one more time I'm going to shoot you." Bella quiets herself quickly and allows Lucien to look at his sister once again. "Brother, there are people coming for you. I came to warn you." she stuttered and he nodded at her. "What part of me banning you from England, means coming back to tell a bloodthirsty maniac that there are people after him? You see Rosemary, i don't care, not about you and not about Candy and definitely not about Blissa. I care about my Kingdom and myself. I don't hide it so you should know that." A guard takes a step closer to Lucien, "King Lucien, your father and the Queen want to speak with you." Lucien looked at him and shook his head, "Tell them, I have business down here." The guards nodded and walked away. "You're King now? I'm proud of you." Rosemary said in a low voice which made Lucien laugh lightly at her. "Feel free to choke on it." Lucien takes a big step towards her and places his hand on the chain that was around her hands. "I'm going to kill you, do you understand me? I told you never to step foot in here again..but here you are." Lucien pulled out his sharp pocket knife, the guard holding onto Bella put his hand over her mouth as Rosemary began to scream. "Brother please! Mercy." She begged him. "Mercy?" He acted confused and then slid the tip of the cold knife against his sister's arm and then up her body towards her neck. "Lucien, what's going on down here." The father asked him as he stood behind him. "Betrayl, torture, you name it." he replied as he stared into his sisters teary eyes. "Lucien, you're not killing your sister..put the knife away." Lucien shook his head, disappointed. "Mercy? You want me to give her mercy?" Lucien laughed, turning to look at his father. "She's my daughter." the father said towards Lucien. "Well, she's nothing to me but a selfish whore." He smiled at him and the father shook his head once again. "You're not killing her." Lucien turned to look back at Rosemary as she whimpered, scared. "Watch me." he slid the knife across her neck a bit, making blood slowly drip down onto her covered chest. "Lucien!" his father shouted and Lucien sighed loudly, "I never get to have any fun." he said turning away from Rosemary and the guard took his hand off of Bella's mouth. Lucien chuckled evilly and turned back to his sister, "I lied." he shoved his knife into her stomach and she began to bleed out but not enough to kill her. "I show no mercy to my foes, sister. You, out of all people, should know that." He smiled at her as she was gasping for air. Bella screamed loudly and Lucien quickly pulled his gun out of his pocket and shot it right beside her head, just barely missing it. "Next time, I will aim to kill." He assured her and she took a deep breath. "Lucien what did you do!" shouted the father and Lucien walked towards him with a smug smirk on his face, "What a real King does..I show no mercy, not for family, not for anyone." He puts his weapons back into his pockets and grabs Bellas arm once again and takes her upstairs while the father checks up on his bleeding daughter. He walks her into his room and shuts the door behind them. "You're a monster." Bella began to cry and Lucien smiled. "Wonderful. Now that it's the end of the day, what do you think?" Lucien asked her and began to unbutton his black dress shirt. "I have hope that your sister will be okay." she nodded making sure that she understood what she was saying. "I have no sister, Isabella." Isabella sighed loudly, "Why? Why do you act like that?" Lucien tossed the shirt into the laundry basket and turned to look at the woman. "Act like what?" He asked her, confused. "Like such an awful, evil person." She eyed him with remorse. "That's just who I am. I can't help myself, I enjoy seeing people suffer." He turned away from her as she spoke to him, "You're unstable, you need help. Let me help you." Lucien chuckled lowly and ran his hand through his hair as he responded. "I'm not changing, the scars, the blood, it all runs to deep, love." He pulls his phone out his pants pocket, and his two weapons on the table beside him. "You really are insane." Lucien looked at her, "This isn't new information." He began unzipping his pants and walking into his closet and changing. "What about Candy?" She asked him and he came out the closet a few seconds later. "What about her?" He checked himself out in the mirror. "Well, she's alive." Lucien brushes his hair back and then turns to look at the woman. He wore a white v-neck and black jeans. "Not for long." He chuckled at her as she eyed him. "Don't kill anyone else." states Bella which made Lucien steps closer to her. "What makes you think I'll listen to you?" Lucien began putting a few silver rings on and a watch on his left arm. "You didn't kill me." She smiled and crossed her arms over her chest. "I'll be more than happy to, at any time." He puts chapstick on his lips. "You wouldn't." He steps closer to the woman and smiles at her. "Wanna bet?" He looked her up and down disrespectfully. "Where are you going?" She asks him and Lucien grabs his gun and phone from the table and walks back to Bella. "To visit Candy." The woman licked her lips, "Candy can't resist me in a casual outfit." Lucien shrugged and then opened the door to his room. "You're going to sleep with her?" Asked Isabella which made Lucien giggle to himself. "Maybe so.." Lucien peaks his head out the door, "Brix! Get Philip to bring the limo around. "Can I come?" she asked him as they both began walking down the stairs. "No." He simply replied, "Why not?" She asked. "If Candy see's you she will kill you. You've been hanging around with her murderer all day." He gets to the bottom step and she stands beside him. "But you're her murderer." She was confused with what Lucien was saying. "I'm also the love of her life..according to her." He chuckled to himself. "Lucien!" Shouted his father, "Yes?" He said, turning to look at him. "How could you? She has internal bleeding!" He continued to shout. "Oh, don't be such a curmudgeon." Lucien smiled at him, "Lucien if you want to stay King you need to respect the princess, and yourself. Most importantly, you need to respect the people." Lucien looked at his father up and down and gave a grimace look at him, like he always does. "I have no sister and as for you. Don't try and talk to me about what a real Kingdom needs and who to respect. Admire my kindness now, because sooner rather than later I will be dishonorable to this family and the only name that will stand out to the world will be...Lucien Zańe." The Father shook his head at his son, "You're acting nutter, like usual. You need my advice to rule, you haven't the least bit of an idea of the respect and honor you need to be King." The Prince smirked at the King, making him angry with his cocky looks. "Nutter? Oh, please save the sympathy and advice for when Blissa comes and tries taking what is mine. My bloody Kingdom, my power, my eminent name." Bella took a step back as Lucien held his arms out. "Fix your problem with those two girls, because I sense a battle, son." Lucien kept his arms out, "Let the battle come. I've been longing for some bitch to come and threaten me in my home, with a whore mindset and no army." He laughed at his own words and then walked out the front door and into the limo. He shuts the door behind him as the driver begins to leave the palace. "Deluxe Devór's Bar." Stated Lucien as Philip began driving to the location. Lucien grabs a drink from the cooler inside the limo as Philip begins to talk. "Sir, I was informed a few minutes ago that a store in Ireland was going to be robbed by a bunch of teenagers." Lucien sipped the whisky and then swallowed before pulling out his phone and dialing a number into it. "Warden, please inform the Ireland police that a store was threatened to be robbed." They spoke for a few more minutes and then Lucien hung up and drank again. "You're going to be a fantastic King, sir." Lucien nodded without making eye contact with the driver. "Thank you, I know I am. I have it in me to treat England with what it really needs and deserves." Philip smiled at Lucien, "and what's that?" he asked him. Lucien puts the empty cup down now and stares at Philip as he drives. "Hope." He simply replied which made Philip nod, not expecting to hear that word from a ruthless man. A few minutes later they arrive at the bar and Lucien steps out. "Stay here." H be said and then made his way towards the Inside of the bar. It was dark, and it smelt of cruelty. He flicks the light on and the bar reveals about three dead bodies on the floor and Candy sitting on top of the island bar table with a knife full of blood in her left hand. "Candy." Lucien whispered loud enough for her to hear, as he was cautious keeping his hand close to his waist in case he needed his gun, again. "Hi, baby." She jumps down off the bar and stares at the Prince. "Baby? Hm, I don't think so. Oh, how was hell? I'm sure hell didn't want you either." Candy chuckled and tossed her knife in his direction which missed him entirely. "You missed on purpose." Candy grins at Lucien and he crosses his arms. "Why would I miss on purpose?" He asked her and she walked closer to him. "You aim to kill." Lucien needed to come up with a lie, fast. "You have a plan. It must've started when you were with Beyonca. You slept with her to get information out of her about Blissa, and Vance. Assuming you knew this whole time that they dated. They wanted you dead? Maybe that is why Rosemary came home and she took me with her knowing that I would do anything to protect you." Lucien smirked at her, impressed. He stood in front of her now. "I always knew you were smart. You've got it mixed up a bit, love. Beyonca was my first ally, she told me everything that i needed to know without asking more or less. You got that correct. She told me that Vance began making a plan to take my Kingdom and Rosemary's life. Why? My power along with you and Rosemary is unbeatable. I brought Rosemary back home and you were forced along. The plan I made was simple: get Blissa on my 'good' side, take her boyfriend and end his life but there was a reckless mix up during that plan. Rosemary was lying to me, betrayed me yet again and I had to exclude her from my master plan. Which is why I excluded you as well. I am not weak, not by myself and not with an army. Blissa needed to see that and that is why I shot you and did not aim to kill." Candy nodded, "Then I found out Blissa is working with a so-called 'friend' of mine. You. She spoke with my father, asked him to distract me and that is why I'm King for a day. This whore that you decided to team up with, it is a means to an all to pot." Candy nods as they stare into each other's eyes. "I heard Bella was in town. Why?" she asked Lucien and he shrugged. "She was upset that I killed you..or that she thought I did." Candy made a weird look, "No Bella and I haven't been friends in years." Lucien pulled out his phone and told Brix to get Bella locked up in the dungeon downstairs until he handled it. He puts his phone away and sees Candy eyeing his lower body. He grabs her hand and slowly slid it down his muscular body and onto his waist and where his private was. He left her hand there as she looked up at him, "Why wouldn't you tell me the plan?" She asked Lucien and he smiled. "I never meant to hurt you." He simply lied to her face. He pulled her into his arms and began to kiss her deeply. Candy quickly takes Lucien's shirt off, then he turns her body around and unzips her tight red dress.

two hours later. Lucien and Candy finished their business. Lucien was zipping up his jeans as he leaned down to grab his phone that fell onto the floor and noticed a few missed calls from Brix. He played one of the voicemails he sent him. "Sir! Bella isn't who she says she is. The guards have her locked up in the dungeon." Lucien shut his phone off and then walked towards the door as Candy followed. "You're not coming." He replied and she made those cute innocent eyes which made him sigh. "Very well." He and Candy got into the limo and she immediately spoke to Philip. "Hi Philip." She chuckled and Lucien looked at Philip and rolled his eyes. "Don't talk to him." He told Candy. A few minutes later they made it back to the castle and Lucien walked inside and went downstairs to the dungeon. "Lucien!" Bella shouted at the Prince. "Shut up." Candy walked from behind Lucien and in front of both him and Bella. Isabella catched her heavy breath and was shocked to see candy. Candy grabs Bellas hair, pulling on it as she screams at her. Lucien stands back, with his arms comfortably placed behind his back. "Who are you?" Candy screamed and Bella squirmed from the pain. "Ow! Lucien..didn't you kill this bitch." she said to Lucien ignoring Candy. "You don't get to ask questions, Isabella. You are a liar. I should've known right away. You carry yourself with this act, a fake one. You seem to think you know me. Yes, I have known you for years but this made me closer to those crazy thoughts that run through my mind." He smiled and took out his pocket knife and held it open in front of the woman. "Who the fuck are you? I'll tell you what I think of you either way. You're a idiotic American slut." The girl angrily squirmed this time, "Bitch! I'm Luna De'Martel." Lucien's jaw instantly dropped. "There it is. The priceless reaction, my brother told me you would have. Who's the idiot now?" Candy turns to look at Lucien, "Who the hell is she?" Lucien made a disappointed expression. "Vance's sister." All Lucien ever wanted to do was beat the shit out of Vance. Now that his sister is the end of line, he wants to get it over with. "Luna, when you see your brother in hell i do wish you tell him something, from the one who personally tore his heart from his chest and all," he smirked, walking closer to her and holding her head up to look up at him, "No more De'Martel blood after this." He whispered to Candy and then slid his pocket knife against the olive skinned woman's cheek. "Tell Vance, I did in fact get to fuck his girlfriend; only a day after he died nonetheless and she was not all that. So, let him know he could have done better." Lucien made a fake smile and then shoved his knife into the woman's stomach and slid it up cutting her stomach open, allowing the blood to splat all over his white shirt and pretty face. "I'll see you in hell, American slut." He smiled and just like that, no more De'Martel blood. Lucien takes his pocket knife out her stomach and sighed, tossing it on the floor somewhere. "All that is left is Blissa and she won't be alive for long anyway." Lucien and Candy made their way upstairs. If a battle is coming, Lucien is ready for a bloodshed war.
