Chapter 1: Young Girl In Red

Stratford, London.

Inside the mansion, the smell of blood and gun powder filled the air. Countless dead bodies were spread across the room.

A young girl wearing a red velvet dress, gently walked toward the magnificent piano in the middle of the room.

As she walked, her red dress flutters in the air, her phoenix-like eyes sweeps across the room. Moonlight reflects on her inky black hair.

She looked ignorant as if nothing fits in her eyes.

Gently, she sat down in front of piano. Her long slender fingers danced on the keyboard.

The sounds of the piano tunes were heard at the moment in the whole mansion. The tune resonates beautifully in the mansion.

Bang!

The door of the mansion crashed open. Dozens of men following a lad intrude the mansion. The lad was very stylish and has handsome and distinct features. His sharp eyes had a hint of natural dignity and power in them. He was wearing white shirt with a tie loosely hanging around his neck. With the first two of his open.

He was the type of the guy who would leave girls screaming just from his mere glance.

The lad immediately went toward the young lady and kneel down in front of her. The dozens of men who followed the lad were surprised and shocked.

Anyone will be shocked or surprised when they will know the lad whose identity could shock the world is kneeling beneath a young lady!

"Rise." A gentles voice filled with dominance was heard in the silent the room.

The lad immediately got up.

The men were surprised because the lad who they call the lord is known for being rebellious and willful, and is now listening to every word of that young lady.

They couldn't help but think, did the sun rise from the west today.

The young lady stopped playing piano. She gently stood up and looked at the lad with her piercing gaze. Her simple gestures were filled with a kingly aura, not a single person can defy this girl.

No one will believe that this gorgeous girl standing here is the girl who killed thousands of people in some mere seconds in this silent mansion.

"Next time, I don't want any ants trying to intrude my peace, got it." The girl spoke. Her powerful voice echoes in the silent room.

"Yes, Queen." It was not a question but an order, the lad in white understood that. He can defy anyone in this world but he can't defy this lady before him or the consequences will be something he wouldn't be able to imagine.

The girl left after saying her piece, her aura was commanding and powerful no one could resist against it, just like a Queen.

All of them were in a daze. They were in awe of the young girl. She was so young yet her aura was so kingly.

"Ahem" The lad in white snapped them out of their daze.

"Lord, who was this remarkable girl?" Su Yan, the captain couldn't help but ask his lord about this awe-inspiring girl, he has just seen.

"Queen." The lad in white uttered five words. Which was enough for them to peed themselves because of terror.

All the men present in the room right now were frightened to death. What did they just hear? The young girl standing before them just now was Queen?!

....

The Arison Mansion.

The mansion was simple, elegant, and beautifully filled with greenery. It stood out among the rest in the colony.

A young girl about 18 years old walked in. She was clothed in a track-suit, her long inky black hair falling on her back like a waterfall. Her dark emerald eyes were just like an abyss. A layer of sweat was coated on her snowy-white forehead, but it didn't make her look messy but even more alluring. She went upstairs to her room for a warm bath.

Her bedroom was huge and colored in cool colors. There was also a balcony accompanying.

She walked into the washroom. The mirror reflected her reflection perfectly. Her skin was flawless, smooth, and tender. Her eyebrows as long as those drawn on ink painting. Not to mention, her thick and awfully long eyelashes along with her emerald eyes. Her tall nose bridge and pearly white teeth were still visible. Her features were so captivating and alluring just like a thousand years old vixen.

She removes her clothes and turns the switch on, within moments, the warm water begins to splash on her delicate body. She took a long shower and washed away the sweat on her body. It was only then, did she feel better.

She came out from the bathroom, cloaked in a bathrobe. She took a cigarette & lighter and walked toward the chair on the balcony and sat down.

The weather was pretty good. The just-risen sun shone softly on the colony, bringing with a flurry of early-morning.

She professionally lit up the cigarette and closed her eyes. Silently enjoying the feeling of the gentle breeze of spring.

After half-hour, a knock was heard on the door.

"Come in." She gently throws the finished cigarette into the trash without even opening her eyes.

One should have known, no one can throw cigarettes like this without opening their eyes, if they didn't have years of practice.

The bedroom door opened. A maid walked in with a cup of coffee.

"Miss, your coffee." The maid respectfully spoke to her.

"Hmm, put it on the table." Evangeline spoke, her voice was little hoarse.

"Yes, miss." The maid respectfully put the coffee on the table and left the room.

Evangeline opened her dark emerald eyes. Then sat up and held the cup of coffee before taking sips of black coffee.

Black coffee is her favorite drink which she likes to drink in the morning. It's her daily routine to drink coffee after having a shower.

Just as she was taking sips from her coffee, a soothing melody rang. It was her cellphone. She put the coffee down on the table and walked in the room.

On her cellphone screen, bold letters showed up 'Yu Yan'.

Just as she tapped on the green icon to answer the call, the person on the other line threw questions per questions at her.

"Evangeline Arison, where were you? Why didn't you pick up my phone last night? Is anything wrong? Are you okay? Do you know, how worried I was? How can you be irresponsible, Evangeline? Say? Why are you not saying, anything now? Did the cat got your tongue?"

Evangeline rubbed her temples helplessly before her best-friend, who started the fire of questions just as the call got connected.

"Shut Up." Evangeline finally couldn't handle it and snapped at Yu Yan.

Silence.

Sigh. Finally there was some peace.

"I went out yesterday and my phone was on airplane mode." Evangeline took sips from the coffee.

"Thank god." Yu Yan finally sighs of relief, when she knew her best-friend is safe and sound.

"You scared me, you know Eva." Yu Yan couldn't help but remember how worried she was, when her call was not going through. Her heart was on her throat.

"I am sorry." Evangeline couldn't help but feel guilty.

"It's okay, at least you are okay." Yu Yan reassure her.

"Oh, and are you free?" Yu Yan asked.

"Yes, why?" Evangeline curiously asked.

"Because, I wanted to go shopping with you, the academy is gonna open in 3 days." Yu Yan spoke, her voice was filled with excitement.

"Okay, let's go in the evening." Evangeline smiled.

"Okay!" Yu Yan excitedly said.

Evangeline smiled and helplessly shook her head before she hung up the call.

After she was done drinking her coffee, Evangeline washed her hand and got ready.

Picking up her cellphone, she walked down where she found her mother preparing breakfast in the kitchen. When she saw her, she came out instantly. "Eva you are ready?"

Evangeline smiled. "Yes,mom."

Evangeline's mom, Arison Ruoxi, is half Chinese and half american and she is a famous author known for her romance and fantasy books in the public. Her pen name is A.R. She is also a beautiful woman even though she is almost in her fifties.

"Eva can you please wake up your brother, that brat is still sleeping." Ruoxi spokes angrily, as she thinks about her younger son who never listens to her and always creates troubles everywhere he goes.

"I will, but mom, he is still too small, so go easy on him." Evangeline couldn't help but protect her younger brother from her devil mom who may erupt at any moment.

"You brat!" Ruoxi smacks on her daughter's head.

"Ouch mom! why are you being so violent, in the early morning?" Evangeline pouted, while she rubbed her head. It seems like her mom smacked her a little bit hard on her.

"You!" Ruoxi angrily pointed her finger at Evangeline but before she could say anything more, Evangeline already ran away while sticking her tongue out in a provoking manner at her.

"Aish, this brat, when will she grow up." Ruoxi helplessly chuckled.

Evangeline went upstairs to her brother's room.

She knocked on the door twice.

"Come in."

A hoarse voice was soon heard behind the door.

Evangeline opened the door and walked in.

Soon a young man around 14 years old was seen. He had pink fluffy hair just like cotton candy. His skin was fair as snow and his features were handsome and cute. He was just like the male lead from the manga, who had walked out right from it. Right now, he seems to be in a deep sleep.

"Aiden wake up." Evangeline shook her brother but the lad was in deep sleep, no matter how much she shook him, he was not willing to wake up.

Evangeline bent down, brought her mouth closer to his and shouted. " Aiden Arison Wake Up!"

"Aaaaahhhhh!" Aiden who was originally in a deep sleep, immediately woke up. Looking like a frightened rabbit.

Evangeline's lips twitched slightly upon seeing her brother's scared look.

"tsk.tsk.tsk." Evangeline shook her head in displeasure. "I can't believe you are my brother."

"huh.." Upon hearing the insult, Aiden immediately turned his head to fight back but found out that, it was his sister. He can fight anyone in the world but it can't be his sister no matter what. His sister was so imposing, how can he fight her?

"Sister..why are you here?" Aiden confusedly asked.

"To wake you up, you lazy brat. Now, get up before mom's anger erupts." Evangeline looks at her younger brother teasingly.

Aiden immediately got up and ran toward the bathroom once he heard his mother might erupt from anger. His mother becomes the devil once she gets angry and he doesn't want to see her devil avatar in the early morning.

Evangeline instantly broke out in laughter as she watched her brother run toward the bathroom.

Her brother is really silly.

Evangeline then walked out from the room and went downstairs to the dinning room and sat on the chair lazily.

Her demeanor was lazy and casual but it still made her look alluring. Her beauty was truly something which made people envious of.

After 15 minutes.

She saw her brother, cloaked into white branded T-shirt and black jeans. His soft fluffy pink hair was slightly bouncing when he walked down the stairs . He looked like an cuddly teddy bear.

"Sister, I am here." Aiden excitedly ran toward Evangeline and sat in front of her.

"Hmm." Evangeline slightly nodded at him.

Aiden didn't mind his sister lacking response because his sister was someone who would like to talk less, therefore he was used to it.

"Oh, right. sister can you give me sister yan's number." Aiden was embarrassed. He didn't like to ask for help from anyone. He believes that, he is a man. Therefore, he should do things independently and not depend on anyone. He dreams to become a pillar, a strong pillar, whom his family would depend on.

"Why do you need, Yu Yan's number?" Evangeline raised her slender eyebrows.

"Because, I want-" Before he could say anything more, their Ruoxi came.

Ruoxi sat down on the chair next to Evangeline.

"Mom, where is dad?" Evangeline asked. She has not seen her dad in the morning. Her dad would mostly be in the garden, reading the newspaper or drinking coffee. But today she had not seen him till now. It was weird.

"He is not at home, he went out to deal with some important things." Ruoxi shortly finished her answer without giving any more details.

Evangeline also didn't ask further, as her mom didn't want to continue answering her.

Aiden also didn't said anything since his sister didn't said so.

They ate in peaceful silence.

After finishing her breakfast.

Evangeline look at her mom and casually notify her plans for today. "I will be out today with Yu Yan, so I will come home a little late."

"Okay, take care but better come home before 9. Your dad and I want to have an important discussion with you." Ruoxi seriously replied.

"Okay." After saying her piece, Evangeline left.

Aiden also left to hang out with his friends.

Now Ruoxi was the only one in the home.

She strangely looked at the direction in which Evangeline left. Her eyes were filled with some complicated emotions. No one knows what she was thinking but it seems like it is something important.
