Thread: Deception  of Lust [Haruchai & Lila Lupin]

Hannah had been rather surprised when her mother informed her of what was going on. Her parents had come into her room, and told her to pack what she could. They very quickly informed her that she was to be married to a man that she had never once met. She wasn't sure why, but she had a strange feeling that it had something to do with the fairytale her mother used to read to her. She'd packed what she could and they promised to have the rest of her things sent to where she would be going. As she exited the house she was met by an elderly man with a very proper appearance. She was certain that he must be the man in charge with taking her to her betrothed. As they drove to the train station he informed her that her betrothed lived in America. They would be taking the train to airport, and after that they would have a series of flight switching and car rides before she would have the pleasure of meeting her groom-to-be. Well then I suppose I have plenty of time to read. Hannah's accent was a bit odd as she spoke in perfect English. It was a mixture between a French and Russian accent that sounded rather melodious as she spoke. She sighed to herself as she picked up the old book of family legends that her parents used to read to her. Her mother had quickly handed her the old book of fairy tales along with all the important paperwork she would need and her passport. She assumed that her mother was wanting her to learn, or perhaps understand something from the old book. Perhaps there was a hint as to what was happening within the pages of the book. Hannah was greatly enjoying the train ride to the airport as she read through the pages of the book that had been read to her so many times during her childhood. The travel arrangements were very nice, she had noticed. They were always in first class on all the flights, and the cars that picked them up were all very nice. As the trip continued she began to think back on when she was a child, how she used to wish that the fairy tales were real, how she used to pretend. She laughed to herself as she thought about how silly she had been, how niave. She greatly disliked the idea of being married to a man she'd never met, and knew nothing of, and if the old fairy tales were true, then she wasn't even marrying a man. She was only doing this to protect her family. They were all she had, and if her betrothed really was a demon then there was a high chance that he would take more than just their riches if they went back on their word. She was lost in her thoughts as the car they had gotten into when they landed in California had come to a stop. Her escort informed her that they had arrived at her new home causing her to sigh. She hated this whole situation. None of this was fair, and it all seemed like some weird dream. When she exited the car though, and took in her surrounding she couldn't help but take in a breath of surprise. The estate, from what she could see, was magnificent. A small smile played out on her face as she noticed the gardens, and the sheer size of the main house. She wondered if he would have any rooms where she could practice her dancing as she looked around, trying to see if perhaps her 'betrothed' was in the near by area.
