Be my Quest

You're Back!

Lucan's POV

Duchan began shouting for me throughout the palace and honestly I had to laugh.

"Duchan what is it?"nI said in a lazy tone. Then in a flash he appears right in front of me.

"Did you... take care of that.... little issue? My friend?" He quietly whispers into my ear.

I smack his head and he lounges forward almost felling on his face, but catching his balance.

"Yes idiot I fixed it, well, more like it fixed itself." Duchan chuckles and nods his head at my statement.

I walk through the ball room where the event will be taking place and, it was perfect. I never had any reasons to doubt my maids and butlers because they are experts in what they do. I just simply add my input here and there.

"It's magnificent. Can I please see the room that the consolation will be happening in." I said to Duchan.

Duchan bows and takes me to a room just across the ball room we were previously in. Once the door opens, the fireplace was running, making the room have a more home like feel to it. The ease the room allows everyone in it to be comfortable because I want the girl to be enjoy their talk with me.

"You've all done well Duchan." I said.

Duchan smiles and brings me out of the room saying, "My lord, I am going to escort you back to your room and we will have a talk about Your Majesty and his mistress."

I nod knowing he was talking about my parents and family back at home. As Duchan and I were walking through the palace we could feel the palace buzzing with anticipation. Furnitures, carpets, curtains, ornaments, and people were in place perfectly. The castle did not have a single speck of dust or imperfection in sight. When we got into my chambers Duchan walks in and I behind him closing the door asking, "What is going on Duchan?"

Duchan smiles, but I knew it was not his usual one saying, "Sit my lord."

Motioning me towards my chair at the desk in the corner of my room. I walked over and sat in my chair leaning on my elbows.

"What news do you bring?"

Duchan coughed and said, "Gilbert is sick.... He's dying...."

My heart didn't beat for a while. This was the purpose of Duchan visiting me. My younger brother, only millenniums younger than I was, was sick. Yes, supernaturals can get sick and yes, there are only a few that are immune to all kinds of sicknesses, but all of them have become extinct for millions of millenniums. My younger brother; Gilbert, older sister; Tatianna, and dear mother fall under the category of having a weak body.

"What is he sick with? There could be an antidote. I'll go and I'll find it."

Duchan sucked in a breath and said, "Luc... He got caught with an angel. There were soldiers coming out of no where and ambushed him. Shooting arrows like the speed of light and one, just one arrow, went straight to his heart. The girl... took all the rest, she couldn't save the last arrow. Luc, Gilbert needs you, he must see you before he goes. He doesn't have long now, but he wants to see you tomorrow morning. King Daemon and Queen Say have already left this morning and to visit. There has been a lot of crying, and they're trying to stay strong for Gilbert. The thing is King Daemon and Queen Say will be spending the week there to spend time with the family and would like you spend time here to run things. After that, they are okay with you coming back home because their son, Loupe, should be returning from his mission."

My eyes widen in surprise because my cousin Loupe, was coming home. Loupe has finally found his mate, I was happy for him.

"He found his mate did he not?"
