............................................
"May! May !"his sister kept yelling into his eyes.
"Edwina...."he grumpled seating up. Like always his vision were ....dark
What was he expecting. He was born blind
"Good morning bro. Hope you slept well ?'Edwina beamed happily. She held both his hands in hers
"Same like always. I can't even tell when it's day or night. "He replied plainly
Putting his leg on the marble floor,he stood up and walked knowingly to the bathroom
"C'mon May"
*Stop calling me that fûcking name! It's Maynard not May. Ain't a girl "he snapped coming out with a toothbrush in his mouth
"But it's suits you "she cheeked patting his brown hair
"Just leave...."he blurted going back in
"Such a pain in the àss. Just come down for breakfast. Heads up, school resumes today "Edwina said before going out.
After he brushed his teeth, Maynard had his bath. A towel could be seen tied around his waist as he stepped outta the bathroom
He walked to his bed and stretched his arm. Just like every morning,an outfit has already been placed there for him
Within a matter of minutes, Maynard Lionheart made his way down the stairs
His hands were tightly holding unto the rails as he descended down the stairs
"Mother...."his nose twitched immediately he entered the kitchen
"Maynard, your lenses "Mrs Isabel Lionheart rushed to her son
He yanked his arm away from her and went to a seat. Maynard never bothered to greet his dad as he settled down on the seat
"Maynard...." Isabel muttered walking to him. She snapped her fingers and quickly. A guard rushed back in with a little box
"Maynard your lenses please. Y... you'll fall "she stuttered tearing brimming at her eyes
"Am fine mother..okay ? I wanna go one fûcking day without having a stupid lense on. I know am blind even with that shît I still can see any fûcking thing. But mother, just let me go a day without wearing em. I'll be fine "he said plainly..
Edwina placed her hand on her mum's shoulder
"Just let him be mum. I'll be with him all through the day" she said with a smile
"A..am just worried bout him. I know it's not easy being blind but...I don't want him getting hurt." She whispered only to Edwina hearing
"Stop wasting your goddamn tears on him. He's worthless" Eren Lionheart said with his eyes glued on the newspaper
"Never thought you'll consider me as a living thing Eren...." Maynard retorted..
Father and son both sat at a great distance from each other.
And thankfully,the dinning table was extremely wide and long
"It's a thing of joy you don't consider me as your father. It'll be shame having a bàstard as a so_"
"Eren it's enough please!" Isabel snapped tearfully. He took his gaze from the newspaper and faced her
Edwina had her head bowed down. She badly wanted to cry out but she's trying to be strong
It's like a normal routine now in the Lionheart family. Everybody her dad and Maynard will always exchange words
He doesn't even consider their father as one. Since Maynard came outta womb and Eren found out he's blind
He rejected him right in the hospital. He called him a bàstard
Even beat the shît outta Isabel for giving birth to a blind son
He called her a witch,a harlót,a bîtvh and so many despicable being
For some reason, Isabel stayed. And gave birth to Edwina after that
She never neglected or rebuke Maynard. He is her son
"Lost my appetite "Maynard mumbled and stood up. He marched to the door and Edwina opened it wide for him
"Wait..."she rushed after him and held his arm.
He's temperature is already running high,tears were already dripping outta his pale eyeballs
"May...."she squeezed his hand and he sniffed
The limo was already awaiting for them. The chauffeur opened the door and they both hopped in
The car sped down the road in a few minutes accompanied by other 3 cars all containing bodyguards

"Now be good Lissa,I don't want any reports okay? It's your first day at Wins Academy. Be good "Arlette said adjusting Lissa's bow
"Yes mum..."she rolled her eyes and got rewarded with a smack on the back
"Arlette !"Lissa pouted
"Am serious Lissa. Be good "she stood up. Arlette made a few adjustments on Lissa's bow
Her hands worked quickly on her long black shiny hair. She rasied it up high and then made a tight bun outta it
Lissa sat calmly on the little stool staring at the mirror as her sister made her hair
"You look so beautiful!" Arlette smiled heartily. Little strands of hair fell on her face and some even met with her red pouty lips
Her teal green eyes sparkling made her look exactly like a goddess.
"My sissy is so beautiful "Arlette smiled the more rushing to bring the new backpack she got Lissa
"A... Arlette. Is that a new backpack?" Lissa asked shakily. Arlette let out a large smile as she walked to her sister back
"Yep. Yunno I got paid yesterday,so yeah...I got ya a new backpack. You deserve it sweetie. Having the highest score and gaining an admission into the Wins Academy.. of course I'll do everything for you Lissa. You're special, brilliant, beautiful and..."
"But Arlette!?"She faced her with glassy eyes
"You shouldn't have. We can barely eat in a day. You didn't have dinner last night and this morning also. What bout you, you're supposed to be in grade 12 right now. Ar...ar... Arlette we should be leaving together "Lissa screamed in tears
"Oh my....your face.... Lissa stop with the shît already. Yunno we can't afford for both of us to go. I won't be able to live if you don't attend. Asides, who'll take care of Tiko and Kenney. Mum's sick and dad can't possibly do that" Arlette knelt down and slowly began wiping Lissa's tears
"B... but_"
"Promise me this Lissa "she made sure thier eyes met
"You'll be successful okay.. you'll be amazing in life. You'll be the one to bring us outta poverty" Arlette said..
"Arlette "Lissa pulled her into a big hug
"There there "Arlette patted her hair
"I love you so much. I love you!..." Lissa said still tightening the hug
Fast Forward**
"What a busy day" Arlette sighed walking down the street. She took a left turn and arrived at a river.
Arlette Rome;
18 years of age. She's beautiful, extremely beautiful. Blessed with a pair of teal green eyes, curvy and tempting lips,a madding shape but sadly poor
Her mum has been suffering from a disease for almost 3 years now. She has three siblings
Lissa Rome,she's 16 years of age. She as smart as her senior sis but not as brilliant
Lissa is sassy,bold,and freaking crazy. She's sweet but can be as bad-mouthed as fûck
Her younger siblings. Are Tiko Rome and Kenney Rome. 12 and 15 years of age respectively
While their dad toils day and night to make ends meet, Arlette has to also help out.
She's a waitress,a bartender and....a stripper
Today's her day off at stripping so she decided to visit her favorite spot. The river
She settled down on a stone and a sigh escaped her lips
"Am just glad she'll be going to school" she smiled sadly and glanced at the dark sky
Arlette had to drop outta school as she clocked 10 years of age...
"Huh...." Arlette train of thought got runied as she felt someone else's presence..
He emarged from the bush,he kept walking towards the river
Not minding the fact it's really raging and the currents were strong.
"Is he okay... "Arlette stood up and rushed towards him.
Maynard had tears rolling down his cheeks as images of what happened In school kept replaying in his head
"Stop it!" Arlette had to yell.
Just as he was about to step in, Arlette yanked him back..
His body collided with her making them both fall on the smooth stones
"Are you okay ?"Arlette asked still on top of him. He groaned lightly and slowly,his eyes parted
For the first time in 18 years,he saw...she had green eyes
Red lips and a black hair since strands of it kept meeting with his face
"U...a..ah...uh..." Maynard pupils increased. He blinked his eyelashes several times just to be sure
"Are you okay !!"Arlette asked again. She made to stand up but surprisingly,he pulled her back
"I...I...can see you...."he whispered. His heart pounding violently against her chest
"S...see_"
"I...I can see!"

The throne room was quiet as he walked in, all the subjects bowing their heads in both fear and respect. Not even a single sound was heard, only the sounds of his boots, as they marched against the concrete floor. The aura could be felt - that deadly aura. And that was, perhaps, one of things that brought him so much respect and fear from people. His hands were crossed behind his back as he walked in and sat on his high throne. But the subjects dare not lift their heads, not until he permits them to. "Long live the King" they chorused as soon as they noticed him sitting. There was a long silence, as he rested his chin and touched his lower lip with his thumb. There was not a single person in the hall, that he was older than. He was just 28, yet gained so much respect. "You may rise" he finally gave the command and they lifted their heads, in relief. He didn't stare at any of them, but they knew what was next. Shortly, he was brought in - the injured guard. He limped painfully, his hand over his hurting belly, until he got closer to the throne and knelt in front of the young King. "Long live my King" he did the normal routine, his head bowed. But one could tell he was in pains - and not just pains, but fear as well. "I'm sorry, My King. But we lost her. We tried all we could to capture her, but she used her powers on one of my men, turning him against us. And in the end, everyone of them died. I'm the only survivor" he explained with hard gulps. He was as scared as a man close to death could feel. The subjects had so many thoughts running through their minds, but they dare not murmur - not when they were in front of the King. King Caesar was silent for a long while. "You're trying to say....you lost her?" he finally spoke up, his voice so calm, words so soft. "Yes, my King. Forgive my incompetence". King Caesar stood up and walked gracefully to the table behind the throne. His steps were slow, but smart. "You went on a mission with 8 men - to capture a single lady. Yet, only one of you returned". He said lowly as he touched the weapons on the table. The guard was almost shivering. For a long while, there was silence, suspense. But not until he spoke out. "You're worst than a failure". And with that, he took a dagger and turning swiftly, he threw it right at him, in such an incredible way, it landed straight into his chest. He groaned as blood oozed from his mouth. And in a split second, he was lying on the floor. Cold. And dead. Cold shivers ran through the veins of the subjects, as they whimpered in fear, praying vehemently they don't victim at all. King Caesar, his hands crossed behind his back, walked back to his throne and took his seat. "Take more men" he said to the two guards in the room. "Go in search of the confessor. I want her found by all means. "No matter what, make sure she doesn't die. I want her alive". He paused and took in q deep breath. "I have so many plans in store for her". Silence. "Yes, My King" the guards bowed and left. * * Her name is Isabelle. And she's the last confessor - the last of her kind. Of course, they were more than that. But, not until her village was ambushed few days ago by the King's guards, and every one of her kind died. All the confessors were killed. The confessors - they were females with special powers of compulsion. They had the ability to turn a man into their slaves and do every single thing they desire. And it'd go on for as long as the confessor was alive. King Caesar was a victim of this. He was a slave to one of the confessors and worshipped her. All he could think of, day and night, was pleasing his mistress. The confessor was not all that nice, as she made him kill his parents. He had no control of himself and didn't know what he was doing. But finally, the spell was broken and he coming back to his senses, he realized all that he's done and lost. He realized how he'd been in bondage for years, and even killed his own parents. It broke him. He mourned for months, trying to get over it, but couldn't. The confessors had fled and went into hiding, but unfortunately, their hideout was discovered - somehow- and they were ambushed. Every one of them died, except her - Isabelle. She was the sister to the confessor who had enslaved the King and she was the only one lucky enough to escape. Although, her sister was thought to be dead, but her body was yet to be found. Isabelle tried all she could to hide from the King, but it turned out impossible for her as the King hunted her tirelessly. But what was the vengeful King's plans for her? Was her sister really dead? And would she remain the last of her kind forever?
