The Fallen Grace Of House Fildette
Prologue
Darius Djeandre
DANE DJEANDREA DEHAN!
A loud deafening scream of frustration filled the ears of our sleeping princess.
She groaned in her sleep, slowly uncovering her unique colored eyes. Blinking her remaining tiredness away as she got up.
She opened her curtains revealing the bright rays of the sun, shortly blinding her eyesight.
Agatha
Lady Djeandrea, Young Master Djeandre told me to come fetch you.
A young woman called her from outside her room, carefully knocking on her door.
Djeandrea sighed as she muttered:
Dane Djeandrea
Great, just great.
The doors opened to her room revealing her maids. Djeandrea yet again sighed as she made her way to her luxurious bathroom, followed by two of her maids.
They prepared her bathing water, carefully testing its temperature before helping her take off her robe. Her long white silky robe, slowly fell off her body, revealing her plump milky ******, small waist, round full bottom and milky white thighs. Anyone who sees her body dies of jealousy and envy. To say she was the epitome of perfect was no compliment.
She glared at her maids before repeating herself
Dane Djeandrea
I said leave me. Please.
Her maids looked hesitant but then bowed their heads shortly before making their way out.
Agatha
Very well, my lady.
She sighed as she let herself sink on her tub as she took in the coldness of the water.
The water hugged her body, wrapping herself in its coldness. Wishing to drown in its depths, hoping someone won't try to save me.
Darius Djeandre
Took you long enough
Her eyes landed at the sight of ocean purple orbs.
You see, what makes the Dehan Blood unique is because of their colored eyes. For decades the pair of purple eyes dominated the weaker colors of the Dehan Bloodline
Dane Djeandrea
You're the one to talk dear brother
she spat as she glared at him
Darius Djeandre
Woah, you ruffled up your sleeves this early?
Djeandrea's lips formed a straight line, looking unamused by her twin brother.
Dane Djeandrea
The person I'm looking at, that's who.
Djeandre smirked at his sister's sassy attitude. He found it quite sexy. It suited her.
Darius Djeandre
You know? You should tone that sassy attitude of yours.
He said calmly, as he sipped his tea.
Dane Djeandrea
Oh? is it? why should I?
Dane Djeandrea
Who are you to order me around dearest brother? Are you my Dad?
Djeandre chuckled as continued to eat his food, stealing glances at his twin as he ate.
Darius Djeandre
Hmm, tempting.
he smirked knowing too well what her reply would be
She laughed as she took a seat across from him.
Darius Djeandre
Enough with the jokes, now a letter from the Academy arrived just a moment ago. I thought you might take an interest.
Djeandre said as he passed the envelope to his sister.
Djeandrea questioningly examined the cream colored envelope, stamped with the most exquisite crest.
She raised her brows at her brother.
Dane Djeandrea
And what of this?
Darius Djeandre
Open it and you'll know
Djeandrea read the letter carefully as she examined the words
"Dear Ms. Dane Djeandrea Dehan, We are pleased to inform you that your application for Luminarius School of Royalties has been accepted. We welcome you with open arms as you start your journey in the School of Royalties."
Djeandrea raised her brows and looked at his brother questioningly
Dane Djeandrea
Pray tell, did you do this? As far as my memory goes, I'm supposed to be in the states next month, I have no time for school. You know that well enough.
Djeandre shrugged his shoulders as he continued to sip his tea.
Kyson Nicholas
Andrea, It's best if you leave your brother alone.
Djeandrea raised her head as she turned to see her father and mother come down the stairs
Dianna Devan
Andre has nothing to do with this sweetie, don't blame your brother for anything concerning you. He wouldn't stoop this low just to piss you off, unlike someone
Her mother glared at her father. Djeandre chuckled as he mouthed me a 'she's right'.
I rolled my eyes at him and glared. Dang mom you're wrong, he's pissing me off right now.
Kyson Nicholas
Andrea, do follow me for a while dearest
She stood up as she followed her father.
They arrived in the most serene place in the mansion, one of her favorite places to be, the garden, or she calls it, Eden.
Kyson Nicholas
Is it just me, or is Eden becoming more beautiful by the day. It reminds me of you my dear
Djeandrea smiled at her father, breathing the freshness of the air and the scented roses.
Kyson Nicholas
It was as if yesterday you were born, who knew you'd turn out to be the most beautiful woman you are today.
Andrea chuckled at her father's cringe words
she groaned as she rolled her eyes
Dane Djeandrea
Is it just me or you're becoming more like Andre by the minute?
her father laughed as he shook his head
Kyson Nicholas
What's with you and Andre bickering all day?
Andrea shrugged as she watched the butterflies gracefully dancing in Eden
Dane Djeandrea
I don't know, it became a habit all of a sudden. It's as if we can't live a day without pissing each other
She smiled as she thought about how immature they became.
Kyson Nicholas
Djeandrea, do you remember our family legacy?
Djeandrea smiled bitterly
Dane Djeandrea
That the eldest child must continue a royal heritage?
Kyson Nicholas
You see, long ago our family was but an ordinary one till I decided to marry your mother. Had I known then of our legacy, I shouldn't have dragged her with me. But I didn't regret a single thing, for you and Andre came along. The world blessed us with the most remarkable children.
Dane Djeandrea
And what of Djeandre?
Her father smiled bitterly. Sadness filed his eyes
Kyson Nicholas
I hid Djeandre's birth out of the earth's existence. It was dangerous enough that you were born, many tried to kill your mother as she was pregnant with both of you.
Kyson Nicholas
So, it was a selfish and cruel decision of ours to hide the birth of your brother. He was a boy, he was a threat to our enemies.
Kyson Nicholas
Sooner enough the world came to know, Dane Djeandrea. The only child of Kyson Nicholas Dehan and Dianna Devan.
Kyson Nicholas
I can't ever forgive myself for locking up your brother away, as if he was never born. I tried to make it up to him, but there's this gap that he had to put up against us.
Kyson Nicholas
It wasn't really our choice, but it was the best option we had that day.
Andrea sadly smiled, she knew that her brother and father couldn't get along. But this was farthest to what she imagined why they grew distant.
Dane Djeandrea
And what of our legacy father?
Dane Djeandrea
What part must I play?
Kyson Nicholas
Your fiance sent me a letter, he wants to set this marriage in a year
Dane Djeandrea
Aldrigde? What for? Why now?!
Kyson Nicholas
That's why I'm sending you off to university, I am allowing you to find the man who you wish to marry, the man who will love you indefinitely. Luminarius is a safe place, he won't be able to track you there
Dane Djeandrea
What of you and mother? And what of Djeandre?
Kyson Nicholas
All will be alright sweetheart, he won't lay a finger on us. We're the Dehans Incase you have forgotten. Djeandre will be fine, he'll be with us.
Dane Djeandrea
And what of me? What if they'll recognize me?
Kyson Nicholas
I knew it would worry you, but fret not, Luminarius belongs to your aunt, Grizelda. I already informed her and she sorted everything that'll be a nuisance to you.
Kyson Nicholas
From now on, you're no longer Dane Djeandrea Dehan. You're now, Divine Andrea Von Stein.

Chapter 1
Dane Djeandrea
Steff? Steffania?
Dane Djeandrea
Are you home?
Dane Djeandrea
Stef? It's me, Djeandrea
After my father sent me away to god knows where, without a single knowledge of Luminarius. Ofcourse I had no choice but to search for my infamous cousin, Stefhannia Neffeli Lancaster.
She once mentioned that she goes to Luminarius, so maybe she'll give me some insights about that place. But the problem is that, she's not answering her door.
Dane Djeandrea
Stefhannia Neffeli Lancaster, I command you to open this door! Don't you dare make me mad!
Dane Djeandrea
What the hell cousin?!
Steffhania Neffeli
Hello to you too dear Andrea
The woman on the other line giggled.
Dane Djeandrea
I'm not up for any of your games Stefhannia. Where the hell are you?
Another giggling was heard from the phone
'What the hell?' Djeandrea whispered
Steffhania Neffeli
Oh y-you the u-usual
No don't tell me. In broad daylight?!
If Stefhannia has something she's infamous for, that's drinking and partying
Dane Djeandrea
Seriously Stef?! In broad daylight?
Now Djeandrea was pissed.
yet the latter could only laugh
Steffhania Neffeli
Daylight? That was ages ago Dane.
Djeandrea couldn't believe her right now.
Dane Djeandrea
Where the hell are you?
Steffhania Neffeli
In heaven
Dane Djeandrea
I'm being serious here Stef, where are you?
Steffhania Neffeli
Hmm? Was it The Den? I don't know. Hello? No. Ah right! Hellbound!
Dane Djeandrea
Alright hang in there, I'm coming. Don't do anything that you'll regret Stef
Steffhania Neffeli
I won't
Christ. The Den is Hellbound for crying out loud!
The Hellbound, or much known as the Den was our usual spot for drinking and partying with strangers. And that place screams trouble.
I know Stef is such a heavy drinker, but never have I imagined her to be drinking in broad daylight. God knows if she was there since last night!
I entered the den wearing a tight revealing burgundy coloured dress paring it with some gold heels.
Just as I was about to enter her 'supposed' room, someone grab me from behind.
Then came a dashing unique pair of crimson red eyes, so rare that i felt ashamed of my purple ones.
The figure bent low enough as it faced me dead on.
Crius Leander
I wouldn't go in there if I were you little lady.
he said in a rather stern tone
Dane Djeandrea
And who might you be?
Crius Leander
I believe we aren't that close for identification just yet
He laughed. Something about the way he laughed made her knees shake. Not by fear, but something rather unknown to Djeandrea
Dane Djeandrea
Well then, I too believe that strangers shouldn't meddle with a nameless person's business. Unless you might want to cross that so called mysterious boundary of yours, then I'll reconsider entering that door
He smirked as he let a low chuckle
Crius Leander
Ooh, how fiesty. I like it.
He then smiled as he bent lower and whispered in her ear.
Crius Leander
Then fortunately for you, I might make an exception. You can call me, Crius. Now what about you?
Dane Djeandrea
Divine. Divine Andrea. Call me Dane for short.
he nodded as he licked his sexy lips
Crius Leander
Dane, a rather sexy name. It suits you goddess
He looked around, questioning the place as he glanced at the door behind us.
Crius Leander
Now what might your problem be? Why enter a room unworthy of such a fine woman like you Dane?
The way he said my name triggered something inside me. What the hell?
Dammit. This man is surely taking my time. How the hell can one be so irritatingly sexy?!
Dane Djeandrea
I believe that is now my problem to face, but as you made an effort to tell me your name, I might as well return the favor.
I took out my phone and showed Crius the photo of Stefani.
He raised his brows as he studied her photo, something about his gaze on my phone made me quite uncomfortable.
Crius Leander
Darling, that woman is not a mile closer compared to your beauty. So why must you compare yourself to a low-class looking person?
his lips formed a thin line as he kept his stare on my phone then back to me.
Crius Leander
Yup, quite positive that she's no where near you
I blushed at his words. Did he just insult my cousin?
wait. Did he just compliment my beauty?
I cleared my throat as I shut my phone off
Dane Djeandrea
Excuse me? This person here is my cousin, I am looking for her. I was gonna ask if you saw her by any chance and not compare ourselves
I huffed, pissed at myself for blushing at his words.
He insulted Stef by praising me and yet here I am feeling wonderful and relieved to hear him compliment me.
What the hell's wrong with me?!
Crius Leander
Oh. Yeah sorry, I'm afraid I can't help you with that. I haven't met her, but I can accompany you to search for her if you want.
Crius Leander
It can be rather really dangerous if you walk around here alone.
Maybe two heads are better than one
Dane Djeandrea
That'll be great, I guess
he smiled and took off his coat
Crius Leander
Then don't mind me
He spun me around and placed his coat over my shoulders before spinning back to him to button it himself.
Crius Leander
That'll do, now shall we?
I was still in trance as he held my hand and guided me across a room filled with drunkards.
Crius Leander
I reckon this is a first for you is it now?
Dane Djeandrea
You can tell?
Crius Leander
From the way your hands are shaking and the way you flinch when a guy comes near
Dane Djeandrea
It's actually my second, the first one didn't go as planned
Crius Leander
Yeah the firsts aren't actually a great experience but that doesn't mean you won't get to learn what to avoid
Crius Leander
Do avoid doing that with just anyone darling
Dane followed Crius's serious gaze and landed on a woman who was grinding herself on a man. While another man was feeling her body, from waist to her boobs.
But what shocked Dane the most was because she was familiar
Dane Djeandrea
Damnit Steffhania
she mumbled as she tore away from Crius's warmth and made her way towards that said girl
Dane said in a stern voice as she gripped the man's shoulder, causing him to look at her.
Idiot 1
Hey Dave, we have ourselves a beauty.
Dane gritted her teeth and let out a venomous growl.
Dane Djeandrea
I have no time for your games.
Dane Djeandrea
Let my cousin go bastards
Steffhania turned as shock was placed in her face
Steffhania Neffeli
D-dane?
As if cold water was poured all over her.
Steffhania Neffeli
L-let me g-go
Steffhania Neffeli
t-this was a mistake
the men looked at each other and laughed
Idiot 2
Oh I see, you wanna join in on all the fun now do you?
he smirked as he let go of Stef and snaked his arms on Dane.
Idiot 2
Hey James, how bout you have that one for the night while I have this hot chick right here.
he grinned as he licked his lips
Dane Djeandrea
let go of me you disgusting bastard!
Dane Djeandrea
you vile filthy creature, how dare you lay your hands on me?!
Dane kicked the bastard where the sun don't shine
earning a painful groan from him
But before he could slap her, a hand caught it. Twisting it upward till you could hear a bone break
Crius Leander
I wouldn't do that if I were you.
Crius's warm aura was soon replaced by a deadly one
his voice lacing with sheer anger, as his eyes showed he was ready to kill
Crius Leander
Crius grabbed Dane's hand and held her up close.
Dane looked at him shocked, before her stare went back to a now scared Steffhania
Dane Djeandrea
hold on, I'll get you
Idiot 1
Hey, man. If you wanted to join, you could've just asked.
Idiot 2
goddamn, stop with the good talk James!
Idiot 2
My bones are breaking you stupid bastard!
Dave let out a painful scream as Crius twisted his hand even further
As James was about to attack, Dane got to him first and kicked him on the side before laying a punch on his face
Dane Djeandrea
Son of a *****
All the while Crius was looking at her, mesmerized.
before hitting the man on his neck and left him unconscious
Steffhania ran to Dane, as she cried.
Steffhania Neffeli
D-dane, I'm sorry
Steffhania Neffeli
I shouldn't have drank. I should've listened.
Dane just nodded and pulled Steffhania out
Dane Djeandrea
We'll talk about it after we get home.
Dane turned around to face a now calm Crius.
Dane Djeandrea
I would like to thank you for your help, Crius.
Crius just smiled and nodded.
Something within Dane felt a little down, I mean what was she expecting? that he'd ask for her number?
As they turned to leave, Dane felt a warm hand on hers.
Crius Leander
Can I see you again?
Dane's heartbeat began to beat fast, yearning for something foreign to her
And with that, Crius kissed her cheek before leaving her and Steff in trance
