"What is it that you wanted to tell me?" Kai asked his best friend as they sat down on the lounge of his floor. Lun had grabbed one of the velvet cushions and had hugged it, playing with the edges as he waited for Kai to bring their drinks. He placed two crystal glasses of whiskey on the little table in front of them, something they always used to do back in the palace and Kai took off his shoes and crossed his legs on the couch.
Lun took a glass, examining the beautiful color of the liquid underneath the golden light and sighed. He didn't know where to start but now that Xan was here he felt he needed someone to talk to. Kai was the only person he trusted to hear this and maybe the only one who could give him advice.
"It's about your brother." Lun began and Kai bit his bottom lip.
"What did that bastard do again? I swear of he did anything to you I'm…."
"He didn't do anything. At least not anything new." Lun cut him off with a frown on his face as he took his first sip. It was cold, getting down his throat, burning his insides slowly, soon it would haze his mind and talking would become easier. That's what he wanted, for once talking to become easy. "You know about your brother and I don't you?" He asked his friend.
"About your one-sided crush for two hundred plus years? Yes I am aware. Back at the academy you worshipped him. I can't really tell why, I am a much better worship candidate but yes...I know" Kai told him with a grin and Lun smiled back.
"I don't just have a crush on him Kai, I'm in love with him and I...I don't know what to do" the vampire revealed and Kai's eyes widened in shock.
"How could you be in love with that thing?" He exclaimed. His feet touching the floor as he was startled by the shock.
"I...well he wasn't always like this" Lun said. He had faced criticism many times about his choice. The thing was that no one got to really choose who they fell for, it was something that happened. Lun wished more than anyone else for these feelings to go away, he didn't want to have them around his heart, little demons torturing him, growing with tmevery time Xan insulted him. No matter what he did though he wasn't able to forget him.
Kai grabbed his drink, taking a brave shot from it and rubbing his temples as he was trying to think of something appropriate to say. Like and love were two completely different things. It was like the two shores of an angry river. If you passed the side of like, swam through the wild waters there was no going back once you've stepped to the shore.
"Yeah, he used to be a bit normal for a brief period of time but...but he was always you know, mean" Kai told his friend.
"He hates me." Lun said.
"He hates everyone, Lun. It's not your fault."
"No, he hates me. He really does. Do you remember his lover? The one who was killed?" His best friend asked him. It took a while for Kai to remember since it had happened a long time ago but he did. He nodded his head, remembering a small vampire, quiet with a cute face. His brother seemed to adore him.
"Yes that Kula, Mula guy I don't really remember his name well."
"Kiula. His name was Kiula." Lun corrected him.
"He didn't die from an attack as the press said. The truth was that my family at one of those royal balls had sent people, they were giving out drugs. Kiula was innocent so he was very easy to trick. He ended up being an addict and in the end he died." Lun revealed. It was the first time in his life that he shared that kind of information. Kai remained silent, stunned by what he had heard. He took some, slowly realizing where this conversation was going. A sigh escaped the prince's lips and his eyes darkened.
"And he blames you. He blames you and his family about what happened to his lover. That's why he hated you that much." Kai resulted and Lun nodded, his eyes clouded.
"I feel like I ruined his life" Lun said, his face showing how hurt he was. Kai stood up, approaching his friend and crouched in front of him, meeting his eyes as he gifted him a sympathetic smile.
"Lun, I won't lie to you and tell you that your family are saints or that what they did was okay. But the hard truth that my brother forgets is that no one in BloodBound is good, no one in our circle was a saint, not even him. Kiula was offered the drugs, yes he was tricked but the choice was his to a percentage. It was his fault and your families. We were teens back then, you had nothing to do with it, you did not ruin his life. That's the only thing I can guarantee you" the prince told him. "My brother is just trying to find someone to blame so he won't blame himself. When you've grown up able to do everything, achieve everything and you end up unable to not protect the one you love it's very possible you won't be able to handle it. But Lun is not your fault. I swear." Kai said.
His friend remained silent. He knew all that, deep down he was aware of it but it was so hard for him to process it, believe it. He shook his head, trying to smile while Kai returned to his seat.
"I know, thanks." He said, appreciating his kindness. "Do you think that he would ever look at me?" He asked, realizing that this was the hardest question for Kai to answer.
"I...I don't know. Xan is a hard person to handle. He is twisted and I would really prefer if you didn't want him but it's your heart, I won't stop you. You can try, I will support you. Maybe you can change him"
"Now you're taking it too far." Lun joked and Kai started laughing.
"I think you have the power though. You're nice Lun, overlooking the whole BloodBound underworld thing." Kai complimented him.
"I saw it you know." Lun said, the dark aura returning suddenly around him. "I was with your brother when he found Kiula." He said.
"Man, it's as if you're making your position worse by everything you say. You were there...I don't want to imagine that."
"Yeah, I don't want to think about it either. But Kai, no matter what happens. I swear I will get him to speak" Lun told him, his expression turning serious and the prince smiled.
"Thank you. I believe in you"
"I don't so it's good that you do" Lun joked and winked at him playfully.
