Two days later Yadir City
Ella eyes widened as everyone looked at Yadir City such a beautiful planet everyone thought to themselves. As the car went within the city other flying car, space crafts, were flying around. The car drove toward the mountains and it landed on the ground it parked itself as the door open. The enter family stood up and saw the stairs.
"These stairs have spiritual energy," Dickson said. Emmanuel looked around and he closed his eyes he was holding on his sword as his eyes looked at the stairs.
"Let's walk up now!" Second Empress Fiona said as she grabbed her husband hand. Nickolas loved Fiona deeply she slowly became the second woman he has ever loved. The rest of the family started to walk up the thousands of stairs.
Katon Resident
Seven kids were standing in line. The oldest was seventeen years old as his eyes looked at his younger siblings a woman with golden brown hair stood in place as she crossed her arms and looked at her kids.
"Mmm alright all of you guys are doing great the royal family be coming here, and I want you all to be behavior, Kingston you the oldest make sure you try to get into the good side of the crown prince and the other, Jason you are fifteen years old I heard they have a beautiful daughter her name is Sia she is year younger then you her spirit root is lightning and she is truly a genius get in her good grace, Millie."
"Mother!" Millie said with a wink she was someone who liked to play around. She was nine years old.
"Try to win over nineteenth prince his name is Isaac his only eight years but his talent martial art."
"Sure."
"Carson you will help Princess Ella she is someone with true beauty and also she has ice attribute spirit root."
Carson who was eight years old nodded his head.
"Same with you Stella stay with your brother."
"Yes mother."
The woman looked at the last child who was only six years he had bruises all over his body he was shrinking the moment the woman stared at him the sky year old looked at her the woman before he ducked his head.
The woman she was the first wife of the Katon Family her name was Elena she was from a powerful family but she deeply hated this child with her heart because this bastard child also has the Katon bloodline but his mother is just a servant woman who disappeared after giving birth to her son. Elena slapped the boy face.
"What is that what don't you call me madam right now."
The six year old shrink he slowly touched his cheeks.
"Madam," he whispered.
Elena grabbed the six year old by the ear and pushed him to the ground.
"I am telling you to speak up when gust come you stay out sight since you are just a useless trash from a maid stomach you should just stay quiet do you understand me don't speak up unless you are told the matter fact you will stay out of sight do you understand me."
"Yes Madam," the young boy mattered.
The other siblings giggled.
"Dominic is such a loser," Stella whispered to her brother.
"I agree."
The other giggled the oldest didn't say anything but only looked at Dominic in pity. Dominic's hands were bruises his hair was messy but he didn't dare look up as he stood up he felt pain all over the place but he kept his mouth shut. Elena sighed as she looked straight at Dominic again every time she thought about this child she couldn't help it but saw that maid in that boy. Yes that maid was the woman that Victor loved her background was known but she was pregnant she was overjoyed but she was also threaten by other concubines in the family so faster giving birth she disappeared like someone who never appeared. Victor couldn't have guts to look at his son he can't even say he knows what his son looks like.
"Guard go give him ten whips wait a moment give the whip to me."
Dominic stepped backwards but the two guard pinned him down.
Pow, pow, pow pow.
Dominic felt so much pain as he let out a cry.
"Please stop please stop!" Dominic shouted. A maid rushed forward as she fall over the son.
"Madam please stop you will kill him!" The maid shouted.
"You dare challenge me?"
The maid stood up she had long pink hair and blue eyes she narrowed her eyes as she formed a form.
"His mother asked me to protect her son I won't fail that I try my best but I won't allow you to kill a small child," the maid said as she picked up Dominic when she heard that Dominic was being whipped by the mistress her heart dropped. She rushed forward disappearing from sight she landed on the ground where a warn out resident was where Dominic stayed. The woman name was Paige tears streamed down her face she cleaned up Dominic wounds she had two kids of her own and a husband she deeply loved to think a young child like him suffers like this makes her so upset.
"I am sorry."
"Auntie Paige I'm fine."
Paige sighed and touched Dominic's face who had a fever who closed his eyes and fall asleep. Paige touched her chest miss when will you pick up your child?
In late afternoon the six kids were all dressed in nice clothes the other four concubines also appeared they stared at each other as if they were ready to attack each other.
Foot steps were heard that the wide gate opened. Victor stared at the Katon Resident such a beautiful place no wonder people must walk up the way everything looks it's so beautiful.
"Emperor Victor, Empress Fiona."
"Hello Mistress Elena," Fiona said as she nodded at the other woman and looked at each of the kids they are so cute and beautiful.
"Ah this is my oldest son Kingston, Jason, Millie, Carson, and Stella."
"Hello."
"Well these are my kids, Dickson, Isaac, Ella, Sia, where is Emmanuel?" Victor asked when he was about to touch Emmanuel's head but touched nothing. Ella eyes became worried.
"He most likely disappeared somewhere else to rest father," Ella said as she frowned.
"Sigh I am sorry my son Emmanuel is a quiet person but he likes exploring places," Victor said.
"Oh I am not worried," Elena said in a gentle manner as she looked at her oldest son.
"Go find the twentieth prince," Elena whispered.
Dominic was kneeling on the ground five minutes ago Elena forced him to kneel down his not allowed to live in this place. Dominic's back was in pain his eyes were foggy he felt so tired and scared but he didn't move at all. He heard someone but he didn't look up he felt so weak. He sighed as he looked up maybe it's the madam he hopefully thought to himself.
Dominic whose hair always blocks his eyes his golden eyes stared straight at the figure. Isn't that figure small? Is it one of his other siblings who are here to bully him? Dominic stared as the other person stopped in front of Dominic who looked straight up. The young boy looked at Dominic with coldness as he looked at him. This child looks like he has been wounded.
The young boy held out as he released an amount of aura but Dominic was thrown backwards. Why don't you know any martial arts? Everyone awakens there abilities at age six and starts learning martial art right away?
"Please I am sorry, I am sorry!" Dominic shouted as he gasped and he started feeling dizzy. The young boy rushed forward he raised his hand Dominic flinched so scared as he was ready for the slap but the young boy knelt down as he stared at the child this child is so scared these scares the looks of it his dark purple hair his part of Katon family his eyes are different from the Katon Family they are so beautiful.
"I won't hit you," the boy said in a gentle manner as he touched Dominic in a gentle manner. Dominic felt shocked he didn't hit him. Dominic flinched as he moved his head. This boy is so beautiful the young boy thought to himself yes this was Emmanuel as he stood up he touched Dominic dark purple hair that looked black his golden eyes that were shining so brightly were so striking beautiful. Emmanuel grabbed Dominic's hand and saw wounds as he used a spell which was a healing spell after. He was finished healing Dominic wounds he was shocked.
"What is that?"
"Magic."
"Oh?"
Emmanuel gently smiled and he stood up as he held out his hand.
"You must be hungry right?" Emmanuel asked.
"Mmm."
"Big brother will show you how to have fun then," Emmanuel who normally doesn't bother with anyone else spoke to this boy whose small hands touched Emmanuel. Emmanuel could sense this boy white snowy soft skin was much more tender then any other girls he has been with not just that his truly beautiful even when he looks so shabby and wearing worn out clothes.
"Wait can we tak...Po Tun?"
"Po Tun?"
Dominic looked straight ahead and a small golden brown dog-like creature stared straight ahead as it growled at Emmanuel it was ready to kill as it's eyes had a killing instinct.
"Shush Po Tun," Dominic whispered as he picked up Po Tun who crawled up in a ball and fell asleep. Emmanuel took Dominic away from the Katon Resident.
Five hours have gone by and no one has seen Emmanuel anywhere. Elena and everyone else were getting worried the guards who were supposed to take the guest were punished. Ella stood up as she crossed her arms.
"My brother isn't the type of person to run away but my guess he went out in Yadir City," Ella said.
"How do you know Ella?" Sia snapped.
"Because I saw his eyes wonder around Yadir he might not talk much but my brother is the type of person who would go somewhere no one would find him."
A servant walked toward Elena.
"That child is also gone."
Elena clenched her jaw.
"Guards go inside the city and find Prince Emmanuel!" Elena shouted.
"Mistress Elena I am so sorry about my son," Victor said as he drink his tea.
"It's alright kids like playing around."
Downtown
Dominic has never been in downtown so this was so new to him he looked around he felt so excited he dragged Emmanuel along with him as Emmanuel found himself smiling he rare smiled but he found that he wanted to protect this child with all his might. Emmanuel bought bunch of food for Dominic who stared at the delirious food that he has never had before he even stared at a strange pink drink he looked at Emmanuel with sparkly eyes wondering if he can really eat this.
"Eat no one will stop us."
Dominic is a gluttony but the amount of food he has eaten isn't enough so both Dominic and his pet Po Tun devour everything and look for more so Emmanuel ordered food.
After eating Emmanuel looked at Dominic who looked so much more happy and relaxed this child how much has he suffered? Emmanuel took Dominic's hand and they walked forward together as they are walking Emmanuel looked at Dominic who stopped talking and he looked at Emmanuel. Dominic remembers what his auntie Paige always pay kindness with kindness. Dominic was wearing his favortie bracelet which was something he made for himself when he was bored he loves it because it was his and only his. As he took of the bracelet he took Emmanuel hand as he put on his rest.
"Thanks for feeding me every kind," Dominic said with a beautiful smile.
Emmanuel looked at the bracelet and he touched Dominic as he pulled out his hair ribbon which was gift from his mother who passed away as he wrapped it around Dominic hair he moved closer and touched Dominic hair.
"I will protect you okay."
"Yes Brother will protect me."
As both walked hand to hand three guards found the two kids.
"Prince, and young child let's go back."
Emmanuel eyes became narrowed extremely cold he saw Dominic was shaking he held on Dominic hand tightly as his smile was already gone he couldn't help but feel pissed off he wanted to see Dominic smile more and feel free not scared. Emmanuel turned around he pulled Dominic closer.
"I promise I will protect you in the future as well."
Dominic smiled brightly.
"Okay Dearest Darling!" Dominic said which he learned from Paige. The guards coughed out Emmanuel couldn't help it but chew on his bottom lips to stop himself from laughing.
"Don't call anyone else but me that."
Dominic pouted but he nodded his head.
