CHAPTER SEVEN

GENESIS ISRAEL CRANE

Barak opened the car door for me and gave me a gentle bow when I stepped out of the car. I stood in awe in front of a magical and classical greek mansion. The Corinthian style stood tall in columns, the intricate designs, symmetry, and classic ambiance were downright breathtaking. God and Goddesses statues cluster systematically and at the end of the driveway stood the Dionysus fountain. Everyone could be mistaken it was a castle of Nymph but little did they know, it was the Devil's lair.

I caress the wrinkles of my black coat as I took in a deep breath. The sky was ablaze with the fire of the setting sun and the mild breeze was unfurling above my head, gently swaying my unruly hair.

In the massive threshold stood the Stavros family and servants. I swallowed down my frustration as Barak led my way through the red-carpeted ground.

"We are glad you came, your highness. We are very delighted by your presence." King Lasonas Stavros offered his hand at me with a wide grin plastered on his face.

Pilit ang sariling tinanggap ko ang kamay niya at nagsalita. "It's a pleasure to be invited here and I greatly appreciated Princess Amalthea Zylina for her effort coming into my house," pasimple akong tumingin sa gawi ng anak niya. I smirked inwardly when she tremble beside her mother. "I feel bad though, I wasn't able to make her stay longer. I think I'm bad at entertaining special guests.." I said thoughtfully. The woman widens her eyes in shock and terror.

The annoying Lasonas clasped his hand on my shoulder then laughed. "Oh, I'm sure not. My Princess enjoyed your company, right, sweetheart?" he turns to her daughter who seems startled at the question.

"O-of c-course. I t-treasure every moment with you, y-your highness" she said, eyes can't focus on me.

Right, bitch.

Barak, who's standing behind me stood by my side and offered a bottle of wine to the King.

"Your highness was depressed when the Princess left the House of Schleswig early, so I'm offering you this Chateau Lafite's 1869 wine as a sign of appreciation for the invitation and to coaxed Princesses Amalthea Zylina," he says.

Lasonas beamed. "Oh, wow! You shouldn't bother but thank you. This is one of the most expensive wines." Of course you dumbass, it's expensive. Kung hindi lang mahalaga ang connection niyo sa amin ay empi-light nalang sana ang binili ko para sa inyo. "Nickolas!" tawag niya sa butler niya na agad namang tinanggap ang wine. "Come on in, the food was served. We have a lot of things to talk to, your highness" he said, eyes squinting with excitement and mischief as he beckons me toward the massive house.

Barak tails me until we reach the patio, which was magnificently set up for this. The Athens night lights can be appreciated around us. It's stunning, but I still hate to be here.

My butler pulled a chair for me as their servant poured me a wine (a very cheap wine). Lasonas, the head of Stavros House look at me with a smile.

"So, how's business, your highness? I heard the Quvenzane Shipping Line has 28 new vessels that sail across the Caribbean, Eastern Mediterranean, and Rome. Where is the embarkation port then?" Lasonas furrowed his brow in confusion.
