Till death due us part my love (On Hold)

Chapter 20

The group sat in a large circle in the living room silently after gaining a few new guests. Due to the lack of seating Alfred was more than willing to have Arthur sit on his lap.

Which he was doing.

And Matthew was more than willing to sit on the floor by Alfred's feet.

Which he was doing.

As everyone else sat with significant others or siblings.

"Okay... So, how exactly are we going to do this?" Arthur said attempting to ease the tension.

*flash back*

The door bell chimed causing Francis to make a run for it. Once he opened the door there he found none other than the Kirkland's with the exception of Peter.

Arthur made a run for it once hearing the voices of his family.

Alfred watched with a smile on his face watching his lover rushing into the arms of family.

Alfred and Matthew later leaned it was Conner and Erin that ran to Arthur with all they had.

Erin was his sole older sister with fiery red hair and a flower clip holding it back. Bright blue eyes and pale skin. She bore a simple baby blue dress with a cape, dark green, much like Arthurs old one that was now hanging on the rack.

Conner was Erin's twin brother who looked much like her. His eyes shined dark blue contrasting his red hair. He wore a green tunic. Along with his cape, but the only difference was the cape was dark blue.

Alfred and Matthew also later leaned the name of the other man who Arthur ran to, Dylan.

Dylan was the oldest brother but far calmer than Allistor. He also had red hair only it was in a more shaggy cut. He was dressed in a blue tunic, along with his blue cape. On Dylan's cape though the crest was slightly different, his was far more well defined. It was outlined giving it a bolded air standing out more.

Smartly nether of the twins pointed it out or asked about it.

*back to present*

"So then, how are we going to take down father?" Erin asked the group.

Gilbert and Elizabeta turned meeting each other's eyes then smirked. "Obviously we need to get him when he is weakest." Gilbert began.

"And lord knows that man works on a schedule down to who he kills." Elizabeta continued.

"What are you proposing?" Allistar said curiously.

Realization hit Francis and Antonio then they too smirked.

"Isn't it obvious mon ami?" Francis said laughing.

"What?" Dylan said confused.

"Amigo, his weakness is pushing everyone out." Antonio said attempting to make them understand.

"But he doesn't push everyone out." Conner began.

"Exactly, who does he keep close to him?" Arthur said finally realizing what they were getting at.

"Peter." The Kirkland's said slowly all looking to each other.

"No! Absolutely not!" Erin said angrily.

"Erin-" Allistar began.

"No, she's right Scottie." Dylan cut him off. "Father is not nice to us but loves Peter, Peter is not only his last child but the one from the woman he actually loves."

"How dare-"

"Scottie stop it! You know he never loved mom." Dylan growled.

"That's a lie!" Allistar screamed. "He still loves her!! She's the one who had an affair!"

"Scottie." Dylan said sternly. "Enough. Leave or control yourself, this in no place for a child."

"I am no child!" He roared.

Dylan stood up silently and stood right in front of Allistar. A loud smack sounded through the room, "you right Allistar, your not a child. Your a spoiled child." He said menacingly, "outside now."

"N-"

"I am not asking you Allistar I am telling you." Dylan growled.

Allistar stood up and left the room leaving the door open for Dylan to close.

He walked over slamming it shut then walked back and sat down. "I disagree with using Peter, but after him I have the strongest relationship with father. I will use my standing to pull the rug from under him." Dylan said firmly.

"You can't." Elizabeta said flatly.

"Excuse me?" Dylan said outraged.

"Dylan, he will be expecting that from you." Elizabeta said softly then smirked, "But he won't from me."

"Eli no." Gilbert began.

"Eli yes." Elizabeta said. "Think about it, I can distract him. All I need to do is plead for forgiveness and turn Gil into a vampire just like he wants." She said looking longingly to her beloved.

"How do you expect to do that?" Erin asked.

"Because the day he told me to leave he also said if I wanted to come back all I have to do is bring Gilbert and change him right in front of him and his chair men." Elizabeta said while shrugging as everyone else's eyes bulged out.

"Excuse me?!?" Everyone (including Gilbert mind you) exclaimed.

"What?" Elizabeta asked.

"Um you have to you know do the deed to convert him." Arthur pointed out.

"Please, like you haven't done that with Alfred." Elizabeta said flatly as the two boys faces became red.

"Eliza, maybe you shouldn't." Francis began.

"It's a full proof plan." Gilbert said quietly.

"What?" Matthew said shocked.

"It's the perfect plan. Eliza was one of his most trusted advisers and was one of the best friends of the queen." Gilbert stated. "Not only this is her with ties to the other kingdoms of the Vampir like Romulus' kingdom and many others. When she was taken out of power Romulus cut off his connections with us as did many others. She's the ultimate pawn, also we can use her connections to get help to take him down."

"I never thought of it that way." Dylan said amazed.

"Eliza, how did you think of this?" Conner asked.

Elizabeta gave her signature smirk, "One forgives their enemies, but never forgets their names." She laughed.
