Jace walked up to the room that the king was in. He of corse smiled fraly as he aproached his dying 'father' kneeling to a knee and bowing his head. "Father, I am back and here as you requested..." he speaks softly as a low and rough voice spoke with warm and kindheartedness. "I am glad you have returned, my son... i know you have done well at the academy.. please stand and tell me about what all you learned while you were there before we seak of more serious topics..."<br/><br/>Brandon was sitting in the drawing room fidling with some chess pieces as he listened to Natali talk and tell him how he should be a better person. Slowly he rolled his eyes and loudly he sighed aggitatedly. "Your really getting on my nerves... if the academy couldnt teach me what makes you think you can hmmm...?" he asks cruely throwing a pawn at a cat by the door. "damn pest..." he grumbles. Of corse catching the rage of the demon next to him which simply fueled his anger again he snarled and grabbed her arm with a cracking grip. His eyes black and angry. "DONT U DARESPEAK TO ME THAT WAY!" he hissed again furious. However this time Natali knew alittle more on how to handle him and he settled down hearing his vein mentioned. His free hand rubbing it protectily. Forcefully he shuved her from the room yelling "get oput!" slamming the door behind him. Leaving her sniffling and with a bruised arm.<br/><br/>After Jace finished talking about the academy his father motioned for him to sit and listen... "My son, Brandon is a huge disappointment, we have tried everything, I am on the last thing possible to save him...Hoever I am worried again he will fail or she will leave and I dont have time to try again..." he stops to cough loudly. "Father.. please dont speak of Brandon that way.. I know he can..." Simon cuts him off before he can finish... "If Brandon can not become a suitable king before I end... You are to take over the thrown am I clear...?" he asks with stern kindness. "But... father.. I am heir already to one other thrown from mother's side.. and second in line for two others... I do not know if..." cut off again... "As my dying wish and for the sake of your father... please agree to this..." Simon was begging at this point. "Yes Sir, I agree..." he sighs sadly hearing the would father meaning for his biological father.<br/><br/>A knock came to the door and Natali was ushered inward. The king looked healthy but that was just the vampire look on the outside. The sad fogged eyes told the tru story.<br/><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://starchildap.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/d0c9e626fa8460_full.jpg">[ img ]</a><br/><br/>The king listed some things brandon loved such as Catnip Tequila, puzzles, intruments, blood cake, blood ball matches, swords, and women. Jace shook his head ashamed at the last one with a loud sigh.
