我唾弃你的坟墓1

"I\'m listening..." Gregor muttered while keeping a straight face, as if not the least bit pleased to see Belle.

"You certainly live up to your reputation as the unfeeling pillar. Come now no need to be so hostile, I simply have a proposal to make." Belle giggled before standing from the chair and strutting over to Gregor who still showed no interest in her games. "Then speak, my time is precious." Gregor arrogantly replied causing a frown to appear on Belle\'s face.

In the next moment she grabbed Gregor by the chin with one hand and gave him a threatening gaze. "Leave a dog for too long and it will surely forget it\'s master it seems. Listen carefully Gregor, this opportunity can not be wasted! I risked a lot going against Lady Uva so you had best extract information out of him by any means necessary. Once I have that knowledge both the Ettenheim throne and title of arch-Mage will be mine...."

Belle trailed off then let go of Gregor aggressively before sensually strutting over to the desk and sitting on top of it. "... at that time I will be sure to give you support in taking over house Vonstein and perhaps even more... you could very well be the first man I let taste my body." Belle snickered while slowly tracing her finger along her slender toned thighs.

Without waiting for a reply she quickly got off the desk and adjusted the short tight semi-transparent glittery dress she wore that showed off the outlines of the undergarments she wore inside.

She purposely took her time as if teasing Gregor before walking past him and leaving the office entirely.

...

And so the days began to slowly pass as anticipation for the day of the trial grew with each passing moment.

No major moves were made by either side which came as quite the surprise since a good amount of people assumed Lady Rose would at least try to negotiate on Aron\'s behalf.

Was their relationship not really a close one? One could only wonder.

As for Gregor, he no longer visited the detention center since that day so as not to rouse any suspicion or attention towards him.

The night prior to the trial, Gregor was casually walking around the large fort like palace in which the main family resided.

His status in this household was very great as he was Ursula\'s first born and since she was already set to be the next head it was only natural for people to assume he would come after her as no one in his generation of the family showed more promise than him.

"L-Lord Gregor, Milady requests your presence in her quarters." A servant nervously approached him from behind and delivered this piece of news while not daring to look him in the eye. "I see, I\'ll go there right away." He said with great indifference before turning and walking away.

*knock*

He knocked lightly on the door once before awaiting a reply.

"Enter." A lovely yet viscous sounding voice soon granted him permission to enter and he didn\'t hesitate to do so.

Upon entering the room, one could vaguely smell a plethora of different exotic aromas . The large dark and silver colored room had a thin reddish mist hovering in the air which gave the room a sort of mystique allure.

The true attraction however was the large circular bed in the center with whitish veiled curtains covering it from above. At the center of the bed, Gregor could clearly see the silhouette of a woman casually sitting cross legged and looking in his direction.

What\'s more two more feminine silhouettes could be seen in rather unique postures close to the central silhouette.

"My dear Gregor, tomorrow is the day of the trial. Arkus was a rather useful piece to sacrifice so I expect great results from this, either his death or the extraction of the information he holds. I can\'t imagine this task to be too difficult yes?" The once lovely voice now sounded cold and extremely vicious.

"I\'ll be sure to give you the results you seek, do not worry mother." Gregor replied briefly while standing at attention with his head held high.

What followed next was the sound of moaning, the voices that let out these light moans were different and more soft, one could say they were quite pleasing to the ear. "You\'ve grown quite bold since the last time we spoke I see, not even bowing... but what can I expect from a man. At the very least you\'re more useful than that trash you\'d call a father."

Gregor remained quiet and didn\'t respond to the insults, only waiting for her to continue to speak.

"Hmph. Well then that\'s that, strip and enter, you can at least provide me some entertainment. That\'s the one thing you don\'t seem to disappoint me at...."

....

The next day numerous people gathered outside a large dome shaped building known as "The Parle". This building acted as a sort of gathering place for all the important figures of Vonstein to meet and reach conclusions on matters of high priority.

It was also the place where trails of high profile individuals were conducted.

Today this place would hold the trial of Aron concerning his suspicion in the murder of Arkus Vonstein.

Inside this building where many of the seats where arranged in a circular manner covering four floors with a central open area that had the Vonstein family crest beautifully carved into the marble floor.

The ground floor acted as a sort of gathering area and didn\'t house any seats, this was were some members of low class families could come and listen in on the discussions if granted permission.

After that came first floor which housed mid class families then the second which housed large and finally the third which only housed members with Vonstein blood or very important guests.

Today that place housed the Galos Academy\'s upper echelon consisting of The Arch-Mage, the vice and three grand mages. A few other unexpected faces could be seen at the trial, both Juliet and Anastasia were present on the third floor.

At one section of the seats stood an old looking man with long gray hair and a large figure. Despite his seemingly old age this man looked to be filled with vitality as he approached the only podium present on the third floor and cleared his throat before speaking.

"I thank you all for gathering here today to bare witness to this trial. Given the uniqueness of this particular one I Rih Lamarck have been invited by both parties to act as the Judge to preside over this. Without further delay let us begin the trial. Bring in the accused!" Rih spoke confidently and received no complaints after speaking.

Seeing this man present, Anastasia couldn\'t help but glance over to Juliet. "Are you the reason he\'s here? That man is one of the direct advisors to the emperor after all and I doubt he\'d listen to the request of the Vonsteins." She asked with great curiosity but Juliet shook her head.

"No, I\'m sure it has to do with the arch-Mage. She\'s probably the only person who has my father\'s respect after all." Juliet replied shortly before glancing below to see the prisoner being brought in.

Soon silence filled the hall as a bloody body that could barely walk was brought into the hall and made to stand at the center of the ground floor for all to see.

"What is the meaning of this!?" Upon seeing Aron\'s terrible condition, Lady Uva couldn\'t help but yell out in outrage.

An encaptor however soon came forward and explained that some of the aristocratic detainees had ganged up on Aron and thus brought him into this state. He even went as far as to show a report of the incident and what exactly transpired.

"This is clearly a set up, you expect me to believe it just so happened to take place now of all times?" Lady Uva angrily inquired but the encaptor felt unable to answer.

Luckily for him, Rih Lamarck intervened. "Coincidences do happen Lady Uva but at the same time you may be right, however my decisions will be made based off evidence so unless something is presented to prove this attack was false we will proceed on with the trial." Rih answered without a shred of hesitation and gave what he felt was a fair decision given the circumstances.

Hearing his words, many aristocrats couldn\'t help but feel elated. Seeing the sight of Aron\'s bloody and badly battered body brought a sense of euphoria to some.

Lady Uva saw her words wouldn\'t gain her anything so she reluctantly stepped back before showing Aron an apologetic look.

"Now then those in defense of Aron it is said he was found on the scene when Arkus Vonstein had perished and many witnesses claim they found him present looking down Arkus\'s corpse. what evidence do you have to counteract this?" Rih presented what little evidence those claiming he was behind the murder had before turning to the Galos group.

As much as Lady Uva tried, she couldn\'t find any solid evidence that could prove otherwise. She had only prepared some statements and hoped to personally vouch for him but that was beginning to look like it wouldn\'t be enough.

Just as she was preparing to stand, Lady Rose did so first before turning towards Rih Lamarck.

"Let\'s end this shall we."
