For Eternity II: Clandestine Preceding (Vampire! 2p! Italy x Reader)

Chapter Four - An Interesting Development

Your mother and you made it home safely after your brief visit to Aurora's home to discuss a few job opportunities for you and your mother that had arisen. Once home, you were greeted by the sound of your father and another man laughing. You knew that laugh anywhere. It was Alric Germania Beilschmidt, a nobleman. Bound to be with him were his two sons and his wife. You sped walked into the living room of your comfortably moderate sized house to see that your suspicions were correct. There the family of four sat with your father, the two elder males still laughing about something one of them said that they both thought was funny. You took in their appearances like it was your first time meeting them.

Alric's hair was slightly longer than shoulder length, wavy, and blond. He often had it pulled back in a ponytail, but today he left it down and had a small braid in it, most likely courtesy of his wife. He had a short beard of the same color hair along his jaw. His complexion was fair with a very, almost unnoticeable, light tan. A small "x" shaped scar laid on his right cheek. His eyes were light blue with a bright violet gradient effect towards his pupils.

Next to him sat his wife, Rosalind. Her hair was long, white, and straight. Her skin was very pale, and her eyes were pink. Naturally by birth, she was an albino and was often made fun of until she married Alric and had children. Despite this, she was a very kind and caring person, though she did suffer from severe anxiety and was timid around new people.

Sitting across from them was their eldest son, Gilen. He, just like his mother, was an albino, though his albinism wasn't as severe as his mother's. His hair was a light platinum blond and went down to just below his shoulders in addition to having short bangs. Just like his father, he had a habit of wearing his hair in a low ponytail. His skin was extremely pale like his mother's skin. His eyes were red. He held the same timidness of his mother but was still friendly.

Finally, the youngest of all the Beilschmidts was Gilen's younger brother, Lutz. The boy took after his father in terms of looks. His hair was blond but cut short. Although, it was still long enough to slick back, but he often left it messy. His skin was lightly tanned, and he had a small scar on his left cheek and three larger ones on the lower half of his right arm. His eyes were violet in color. Sadly, he was the rebel of the family and was a bit of a pervert, but he was nice other than that.

You smiled before deciding to join them so Rosalind wouldn't continue to be alone with four men. You took a seat on a singular chair close to your father and Gilen. The latter of the two gave you a soft smile and mouthed a hello. You mouthed a greeting back before you both turned your attention back to the conversation. The topic had changed to marriage oddly enough. The two of you listened intently to the two fathers talking, but you were eventually brought into the talk.

"So, (y/n), have you had any success in acquiring a husband? Or is your father perhaps driving them off before you have a chance to speak with suitors?" Alric asked you, adding a playful tone to his last comment.

You giggled and shook your head with a smile. "Father lets me deal with suitors all on my own. So no, I haven't found anyone to be my husband."

Your father chuckled before speaking. "She's more strict and fickle with suitors than I would be for her, so I know she'll choose the right man in time."

Alric nodded and stroked his beard. "I see. Say, you've known Gilen and Lutz your entire life. Why not marry one of them?"

"Alric!" Rosalind gasped softly as her voice was naturally quiet. "They are just friends. Don't propose such things!"

"I want to know her opinion on why she wouldn't though. It may be interesting. So, how about it (y/n)? Why won't you marry one of my boys?"
