Lucas lowered his head in a very submissive gesture. He knew he jad said something to upset the woman. He knew Eros was here. She would not be so cautious and secretive if she were not hiding him.
The boy realized he would have to use tact to gain what he wanted. To be blunt, in this situation, would give him nothing.
"Nothing much. He agreed to let me paint his portrait. Unfortunately, he had to leave before I could finish it," The Sun lied to the Stars. The Sun wanted his Moon.
"I wanted to ask if he would come back to my studio. The portrait is there, waiting."
((scene change, sort of, i'm just too lazy to do a seperate post like usual. plus it's really short!))
Eros heard the exchange, word for word. He knew it would hurt Devinity to know the truth. Yet, he could not leave Lucas to wonder what became of him. He left it to his actors to determine the next action of the scene.

"Eros...My love...Someone has arrived for you, shall I show him in?" Devi called, enphasizeing "My love" with a glareing glance at the boy. She leaned in the door way, licking her lips softly. Watching his every twitching, longing movement. Her huntress desire to put him out of his pain showing through. She sensed the deception in his voice, but cared little. All she saw before her was a treat. He was a candy in a bright shineing wrapper. Nothing more.

Eros knew his primadonna felt the novice actor's treachery. She was no fool. He drew himself upright. He did not want to seem weak, fragile, and hurt infront of Lucas. The color had finally fled from his skin, yet his eyes were still sensitive.
"Yes. Lucas, please, come in. I am here." His call to the boy betrayed little of his weakened condition.
The boy entered slowly. He withheld the urge to reward Devinity with a nasty look and wlked to Eros' side. He did not want to seem as a lovesick fool before this mislead woman. Lucas sat beside Eros, practically ignoring Devinity's prescence.
"Why?" That simple question had taken him through the forest to this castle. To this mysterious man.

Devi bit her lip, holding back the mixed urges she had as his closeness. Something was wrong. Her intuition would not let her rest. She leaned in the doorway of the room where they sat, suddenly as interested in the answer to the boys question as he seemed to be. She twisted her hair around her finger nervously, yet absent mindedly. Unsure if she should stay. She seemed to await Eros to send her off, yet she knew she couldent leave. She meerly hovered in the doorway waiting.

Eros did not no how to handle this. He was no longer the cruel, calculating dictator of the play as he used to be. He had been transformed to the tragic prince. Unfortunately, he did not comprehend how to fill that role.
The Prince glanced at his Princess, then back to his Suitor. One pale hand came to rest atop gleaming blond hair. Emerald eyes were apologetic, and Lucas knew it was not the woman who was mislead. He was the disillusioned fool.
"I am sorry, Lucas." Eros could bring himself to say no more. he wrapped his arms around the boy slowly, giving him a chance to pull away. The Once-suitor allowed his Prince to hold him once more. He was jealous of the Princess. He only hoped she understood what a wonderful Prince she had.

She watched, confused. The meer movement of her beloved near this new arrival sickened her. She whispered softly. "I suggest you explain yourself to me...His heart is screaming to me, his blood rushing so loud I cant stand to hear it...What have you done?" She dident look to Eros, she meerly looked over Lucas. Their eyes meeting as though frozen in time.

Eros gasped. Lucas had grapsed his arm in fear. Eros dared not look at either of them. Lucas slowly began to shake his head.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry...." His mantra continued. Eros shook his own head and placed a hand on Lucas' to quiet his apologies.
"No Lucas. Please, don't apologize." The boy turned his face to look at him.
"Go upstairs. The second-to-last bedroom on the left is where I want you to go. Sleep. You're exhausted." His voice was falsly calm. Lucas opened his lips to protest but Eros shook head again.
"Please."
Lucas did as requested. The sound of the door's closing was faint but still heard.

"If he sleeps in MY home, I will not." Devi said simply, her voice cold. She watched him walk up the stairs, her heart surgeing at the seemingly empending crash around her. "What have you done....what have you done...." Devi whispered over and over, shakeing her head. She dident move from the doorway. "You think I dont know the surge of a human heart when its seen the object of its affections!? You think I dont know he's in love with you!?" Devi broke, yelling but not moveing from her place.

Jusaku began to laugh from his room. "Where is your lover now?"

Eros closed his eyes. He had hoped for better. He rose slowly and walked towards Devinity. He stopped less than an arm's length away but did not make a move to touch her in any way.
"Please, Devinity, I beg of you, do not hurt him," Eros voice was nothing more than a pleading whisper. He was desperate to make her understand.
"The boy is innocent in this. He has done nothing wrong."
Eros saw by her face that she was less concerned about the boy as she was for what her Prince had done. The Moon could do nothing but bend to the wishes of his Star. He opened his minded fully and completely, until it reached her. She could see his memories for herself.

Devi looked at the floor, her own tear drops dripping down onto it. "...How can I love you? How can I give myself to you? When there is always another Rebecca, another Lucas..." She felt so sick. She whispered. "I wanted you...I wanted to belong to you." She cried. "You choose to protect your useless boy from me? Its clear what you value." She gently placed her hand under his chin, lifting it up gently. Their eyes met, the tears still on her cheeks. "I hate that I love you even now..." She said, pressing her lips against his briefly. She walked to the door, her hand against it. As though waiting for one reason she should stay

Eros closed his eyes yet again. He knew she should not listen to anything that would come from his lips. The once proud Prince had walked with elegance and grace. Now, he is forlorn, and nearly slumps in sadness. He knew nothing could change this. he merely gazed at the fireplace.
"I hate that I cannot love only you, my dear Juliette. Devinity I am sorry." He knew not if she had heard his useless apology. He didn't care. It would not place the broken pieces of their hearts back together as they belonged.

Devi fell on the floor, her face in her hands screaming. "Then how could you ever say you did!? You toy with me as you toyed with him! Can you not love!?" She wept, wanting her Prince to hold her, wanting to have the lies poured into her ear that it was all ok. "Did you ever love me...?"

"It was raining. The lycans were on the move and you were pinned. I watched as you killed it and many of its kind. Your technique was perfect. Your concentration was superb. The surviving lycans ran from you. You stood in the rain, covered in blood, a weapon in each hand. I walked to you and kissed you. I walked away. I began loving you then."
His voice was only a whisper. His calm tone never wavered, never trembled.
