Hiding In Plain Sight

Phase One

A picture of The Count

It was now a bright sunny Wednesday morning, the birds chirped excessively, people were chattering, it was your typical Wednesday morning in Gloire. And a perfect day for The Count to start birthing mayhem.

He sat in his all black bedroom, candles lit and oil running down his anointed lips. He laid on his bed and blocked out everything and focused his destination. The castle.

He appeared before the castle, people passed him some even walked right through him but they couldn't see him. "Oh how I missed astral projection." he mused. He proceeded to make his way in the castle but an unseen wall was blocking him from entering. Then, he remembered that cousin dearest said the palace was warded. He quickly possessed one of the queen's handmaidens that were carrying flowers for some irrelevant reason and made his way into the palace. The maiden tried fighting from the inside but it was futile. Too much insecurities and what not.

While sauntering through the castle, Dante, well the maiden, received lustful looks here and there, for she was extremely beautiful, brunette with green eyes and wore a purple dress that revealed a little too much but Dante enjoyed every minute of it but he didn't want to lose sight of his goal.

He made his way around the way too big castle. Climbing stairs, looking in chambers and studies till he found who he was searching for. "My King!" Dante called out gaining his attention. " Imogen what's the matter?" Dante ran in the library where King Carlyle was reading and closed to door. "I need you to follow me to your chambers, my Lord I need to tel you something." Dante said licking lips and flashing bosoms.

"What's so important that you can't tell me here in the library, we are alone you know." Carlyle winked. Normally Dante would throw up but this actually made his task easier. He leaned forward over the table and kissed the king and he kissed back.

Suddenly all the king's memories started to flash before Dante's eyes as he locked lips with the king. He saw the mind blowing sex, birthdays, murdering , meetings and all the protective runes carved in the walls to neutralise magic.

Dante/Imogen quickly pulled away from the king catching his breath. "What's wrong?" The King questioned. "I can't do this, I need to go." Dante complained.

"No I want you and I shall have you." The King grabbed on to Dante and began trailing kisses on his neck. Dante tried to break free but he was too strong. Dante was helpless physically so he gave into the carnal pleasure and decided to use it to spike his magics since he was weak in Imogen's body.

He concentrated on home, the smell, the feel and family, his spirit's grip on the young brunette weakened and he was dragged back to his body.

He jolted up in shock checking if he still was in one piece. Astral projection can be really dangerous without someone supervising your body.

"Don't worry I stayed with you the whole time." Bastian comforted earning a shriek from The Count, he didn't realise he was lying on the bed with him........... stark naked but Dante didn't mind, it's not the first he has seen him naked.

"What sinful act did you partake in Von Brunt?"

"Did my cousin send you here to spy on me?" Dante rolled of the bed and wandered to the window staring at all the citizens outside.

"No she's out with friends."

"Then why are you in my quarters with no clothes on?"

"I think you know why." Bastian got off the bed and stood directly behind his cousin-in-law breathing hot air down his neck. "You want in." Dante smirked uncontrollably. "You know, you didn't need to be nude to tell me that."

"That was just a bonus, for you." Bastian grinned.

"You pompous ass, get out of my room." Dante laughed, hurling pillows and candles at his face.
