A chance

Lindon sat in a daze inside the drawing room. He had been in that state for a while now even after Cygnus retracted his oppressive aura. He couldn't believe that the person who had been living in his uncle's estate was not really his cousin.

He looked at the other man, who was changing his clothes, one more look before he sighed in dismay. All his plans has been thwarted and now he was forced to serve this unknown man. He could feel the disgust brimming in his heart and the hatred that was bubbling frim his inside.

He even wondered if General Linius and Duke Ulysses knew about the man. The word 'contract' also made him frown. Questions like, 'who made a contract with the man?' and 'what kind of contract was it?', were running around his mind.
