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

We found Tristane's flat and he was happy to see both us. He let us in and managed to tiptoe around his luggages and several moving-in boxes. He probably just got here. 


"Sorry about the mess guys. I literally just flopped in my bed over there and made myself home." He pulled away the plastic covering his couch, "Please, take a seat. I'll get you something to drink." 


Lucian nodded while I decided to open the windows. The room needed some fresh air. "This is nice place you got, Tristane." 


"Gee, thanks. I barely had time to look around some more but I do like it here." He answered from the kitchen. "Are you guys hungry?" 


"No, we have just eaten." Lucian replied. 


With that said Tristane came out carrying a tray. He laid it down on the table. He had some fresh lemons on the counter and guessing by the color of the liquid inside our glasses we were having lemonade.
