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

I woke with a massive headache. My eyes fluttered as I tried to remember where I was. I saw the cream coloured ceiling with it's ancient four poster bed and me lying on it. 


I pushed myself up and felt the sudden nausea. I caught the pillars and steadied myself, there, that's so much better. 


There was a knock on the door and Tristane came through, "You're awake.." 


I just stared at him. He sounded relieved. "What happened?" I asked. 


He sat the tray of food next to the bed and pulled a chair, "You've been out for two days Lucian. We thought you died back there." 


I frowned. What is he saying? I cannot recall anything at all. I stared at my hands saw some bruising, a few scabs over the elbows and some stitching on my right arm. 


Tristane sighed, "What do you remember so far?"
