Clara walks into her carriage with her right hand man , George .
She narrated her conversation with Sango to him and he nodded his head .
"Do you think we should trust him ?"She asked
"Obviously he's lying so we can't trust him . He's hiding his mother's whereabouts from us " George said.
"Why would he hide someone as powerful as her from us . We need her if we're to capture Amaranth" Clara said
"Yes but if he won't disclose her willingly for us to work along with her then we will....." He whispers the remaining words to her ears and she smiled .
"I love the way you think " Clara said and laughed wickedly .

"I don't trust Clara . She's very cunning and can likely betray us in the future . Did you feel the thirst for power in her ?" Luther asked .
"If Clara could betray Dracula, what makes you think she won't betray me . Of course she will and am aware of that . For now we have no idea how powerful she is since her return . But for her to stay that long under Dracula's roof without being caught shows she's a lot more powerful that we think and her powers will be of great help to us. Of course we'll put her out of the way when she stands between us and Anaranth , but for now let's enjoy everything she gives . Every thing He said with a mischievous grin .
"Seems like she's got a good thing down there "Luther said and licked his lips.
"Of course , that's part of the every thing she offers " Sango replied and Luther smirked .
"That makes her a good ally then " Luther said and Sango nodded .
"There's one important thing . She must not know of mother's whereabouts. It'll be dangerous for her and with Clara's thirst for power , you don't need me to tell you the next thing that'll happen " Sango said .
"Mother needs to be informed about Clara being our ally " Luther said and Sango nodded then he disappeared leaving Sango in the throne room .

In a tower lived a woman with grey hair but with a powerful aura .
"Mother , I have news to share with you " Luther said and the woman who's been facing the window faced him .
This woman was none other than Queen Elvira , the mother of Sango and Luther .
"What news is that ?" Elvira asked .
"Clara has joined hands with Sango to help in capturing Amaranth " Luther said .
"And in return ?"Elvira asked .
"Both of them will share the power amongst themselves " Luther replied .
"In other words she wants to join in taking the power which is rightfully ours ?"She asked.
"Something like that "
"She'll help us but after that , we take her out of the way " Elvira said.
"Clara is power thirsty and cunning . She'll know Sango is hiding your whereabouts on purpose bad maybe come for you herself . You carry a big amount of power in you ,so Sango wants you to be careful " Luther said.
"That's very thoughtful of you my sons but let her come , I'll be ready " Elvira said with a cold face .

Dracula gave a cup of hot tea to Amaranth who gulped it all at once .
"Lucifer " She called and Dracula turned to her .
"Now that she's gone can we start afresh ?"She asked.
"No . I can't love you Anaranth . It's dangerous and you'll become my weakness and its something I don't need now " He replied .
"But am powerful , you can help me nurture my powers and I'll stand strong beside you " She said.
"It's not as easy as you think " He said.
"Alright but I just want you to know that I love you and when you're ready , I'll be waiting . But you better not take long "She said
"Why would you love a monster like me ?"He asked.
"Cause I know that deep down , you're not a monster but you just won't open up to me "She said and left the bed when Dracula held her back .
"I wasn't always this bad but they made me like this .
"Who are they ?" Amaranth asked .
"Elvira and her sons. Elvira is my father's second wife and my mother's younger sister too . Our family was perfect till the day she came to visit . She was supposed to stay for a few days and then leave but days turned to weeks and weeks to months but she didn't leave . One day , father suddenly announced he's taking another wife to our surprise and later we found out the second wife was none other than Elvira , my mother's sister . Mother confronted her and asked the reason for father's decision and all she could say was that mom's not up to the task .
Some years later she gave birth to Luther and Sango . They were as evil as their mother and they became our father's favourite . I remained strong for mother who was slowly falling into the hands of depression .
The day my powers bursted out for the first time was when I and Sango were having a duet and when I won him , he threatened to make my mother's life more miserable . I got angry and my eyes turned to a dark red colour . I became blood thirsty and pushed him hard . My claws came out and I aimed for his neck when father came and pushed me away . He chained me in the dungeon and Elvira called me a monster . I've always known I had some dark powers within me but it manifested that day . It's like a different me , a cruel one . Blood thirsty , wicked and stuffs like that .
I was locked in the dungeon for a very long time , I lost count of the days and when I was finally unlocked , I heard that my mother was dead .
She went to plead to my father to set me free but father refused saying I nearly killed his son . He commanded mother to leave his presence and she hesitated . Then he sentenced her to death for violating his order .
Out of anger , my demon side arose and I pulled his heart from his body and he dropped down dead .
I was very angry , I went for Elvira but she was no where in the palace .
I destroyed everything I came across and Sango fled with Luther . Today , that kingdom is no more " Dracula said with an expressionless face .
"Youre very strong . You've been bearing this for a very long time " Amaranth said .
"I know Elvira is still alive and hiding and growing more powerful but the day I'll meet her . Blood must surely over flow " Dracula said and his eyes the bed dark red .
"Lucifer , calm down "She said
"It's too late " He said and pounced on her tearing her dress .
"I know this isn't you , so come back already " She said and his eyes turned to normal green and she hugged him .
