Penthurst Manor had not been occupied for a very long time. Stories about the previous Baron circulated all around. Some say he sold his soul to the devil, while others said he became the devil himself and still walked the earth.

Archeologist Patrick Neville had been drawn to the said stories. For almost 9 years he dedicated himself to solve the Baron's disappearance. Following a torn journal, he unearthed the Baron's residence.

Kristania 'Krista' Vinna Neville was jumping between her Mom's place in Ovido Heights and back to her Dad's mansion in Richmond. Ever since the divorce she had been constantly patronizing her mom's hysterics while her Dad travelled the world. She'd heard of the story about the Baron Lucian and had actually grown a tendré towards the man. No one knew that the man visited her in her dreams. She had contented herself meeting Lucian at night, however, the Baron had grown bolder and seductive. Can she resist his charm and solve his mystery?

The Baron and his Lady

The storm was brewing immensely above me. Dark and heavy clouds gathered here by the portal. I was right when I thought I felt a brush of magic awhile ago. But nothing seemed to be happening on the portal itself. 


I touched the hardened wall and nothing was different. Only the raging thunder and lightning gave way to something dangerous. Whatever could be happening outside? 


I looked up and felt the first drop of rain. It was cold and wet. I couldn't help but gasp, it has been so long since I had experienced rain. Way too long. 


Besides the storm there seemed to be nothing out of place. Perhaps this is temporary after all. I worried way too much. It's time to get back to Krista. 


At the thought of her name I heard someone call to me. I turned my head and tried to listen. The rain poured heavily now and the thunder was louder than before.
