Chapter 2 - The Mansion

"This place looks great" Jeriza commented while looking around the rental house where they will stay for the next six days.

"This Mansion was made from 18th century, legend said that this house was made for the wife of the first owner of this place" the caretaker said "Wow, this place is really old" all his friends gave different comments about the house.

"This is the portrait of the first owner of this Mansion, If I remember it correctly this was taken on their wedding day" Ziel looked closely and examined the portrait "They're both....men?" Ziel asked and the landlord just nod his head lightly.

"Why can't we see that man's face?" Chris asked "Ofcourse it's from 18th century dumbass" Agatha said sharply "Then why is the other guy's face is clear?" Chris upbraidedly ask with a matching tone of sarcasm in his voice.

"Well according to my grandma, the story of those two is not like the typical love story you will heard" The caretaker said while looking at the portrait.

"According to the story told by our ancestors, The man with a clear face is Rucian the prince of vampires, while the one with the blurry face Cassius is a half blood, one of the legends of vampires is that there is only one destined to be with them for life and they call them mates, Cassius is Rucian's mate but because Cassius is a half blood Rucian hated him, he despised him, thinking how can a prince like him be mated to a half blood" the caretaker told them.

" But as their law the prince had to marry Cassius because he is his mate destined to him, at first the prince hated the half blood but eventually the prince learned to love him, and made this mansion for him, But Cassius died for some unknown disease, the prince world fall apart, and since he is an immortal, he can't follow his love to the afterlife, all he can do is to wait for him to come and be together with him, they said until now he is still waiting for Cassius believing that one day he will come back to this mansion " She added

" When you said waiting, does it mean the prince is still alive?" Agatha asked and the caretaker just shrug her shoulders

" I don't, that is just a story from the past that has been pass down through generation, none of knows if its real or not" the caretaker answerd

" Ofcourse it's not real, Vampires? pft, what are we in a drama? inside a novel?" Ziel sarcastically said

" There's no way that story is real, we're not in 18th century, maybe the story they are told is wrong, maybe those two are just brothers and this is their vacation house" He added

"If you're scared just admit it" Chris said teasing Ziel which Ziel replied with rolling his eyes at him

"You're friend is right, we don't know the real the story, but who knows maybe its true and also maybe Cassius already came back, it's just a story, no need to be worked up about it, anyway I hope you enjoy your stay here and if you need anything feel free to call me, I'll be just around here" The caretaker bid her goodbye before leaving the group of friends on their own.
