rghikari: “You did all of this for me?”
1481.
“Don’t get ahead of yourself, dear little sister,” he mused as he embraced her from behind. “Nothing is without a price.”
It had been nearly a week since he had lost interest in Samuel mainly because he had been under the watchful eye of their older siblings since he tried to drown him again to cleanse him from his original sin (to be born on that day). His eyes had fallen on his sister older in age but she never acted as such. She was so unlike Seulgi who was strong. Hikari was always on the side. She looked pathetic. It was on this that he planned his scheme. She needed ‘love’, ‘attention’ and ‘care’. After all, she lost her mother when she was still an infant and possibly had no recollection of her. From what Aeron understood, her mother was one of his father’s personal whores (concubines) and she was burn at the stake for having a female as a first born. Pathetic. It was sad that her whoring mother had died in horrible circumstances and left that useless child into this world.
“You see, from now on, I will play with you always.” Aeron announced before he pushed her on the floor. “I will make sure you wear the prettiest clothes and the nicest jewelry, because I don’t play with people who could be confused for a meager servant.”
He leaned next to her on the ground and met her very eyes. They did not look much alike even if half of their blood was the same. She took from her mother that his father happened to have simply liked for entertainment and for bearing children. The younger male extended his hand grabbed one of her long locks. She had fine hair for a useless doll. It was worth combing and brushing everyday. Her skin was fair therefore he would always make her wear sumptuous dresses that were rich in color like his older sister or, perhaps, he should opt for pastels so she could blend with the walls and be invisible to most but him. She was a new plaything of his, but one not as filthy as his twin brother. She was a weakling next to hi however. At least, she had no one to really run to either. Their father did not seem to care about her. The new official whore did not seem to like her either.
“From now on, our roles are reverse.” He threw the lock in her face and sat down. “You are to call me big brother. You better do what I say, because you do not want me to be get angry, right?” Aeron let out a chuckle and stood up. “Never forget that I am the first one who decided to acknowledge your miserable presence. No one thought to dress you up. Why would they bother?”
