Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

"You are a cowardly man that is running away from the truth!" George trembled when he saw the disgust on the face of his son that was similar to the look his father used to give when he was a kid.

The seat of the emperor belonged to the family of Thawyne from the start. But in a war, their grandfather Orlando, who had been called as a war hero died while his son was too young.

To keep his childhood innocent, his brother, Oscar took the seat as the emperor.

It was a temporary measure to keep the empire working until Elvin, the true heir, would grow up as a strong man to take over the empire.

But after returning from the academy, he refused to take the position and let his uncle rule. That was how the seat of the emperor had been shifted from Thawynes to Senerinas de Obelia.

Though Elvin received a lot of scorn and sneers that he was a coward and had given his back to his responsibilities, Obelias were not treated any better.

Everyone looked at them with pity and never treated them as worthy of the seat.

It increased so much pressure on the next generation that Obelia's have to prove themselves worth again and again.

Even if they win in nine competitions from Thawynes, a single defeat and everyone got the chance to say that they have still not learnt how to rule and they still did not deserve the throne they have received in charity.

It was a stain they would never be able to get rid of. But not even once had they thought to return the empire to his true heir even when three generations passed.

With each passing generation, the pretense of brotherhood and love for each other continued to fall and now George, who had suffered the most, did not care to act like a loving brother.

He hated every time when he was being compared to William. He wanted to kill him then and there. But when William smiled at him and helped him in his works, like learning the theories and completing his studies, he did not have the courage to kill him.

Not because he felt touched by the love his so-called cousin was giving him, but he knew that he needed William.

So even when he felt that William was mocking him and sneering behind his back. Even when he felt the laughing gaze of everyone on him, he endured.

He endured so that he would be able to get to the throne and then he would teach them a lesson. A lesson for every time they made fun of him.

He remembered each of their faces and took his revenge slowly only ending up at his precious brother who had already reached to the highest level of administration till then.

George had no choice but to keep him alive but that did not mean he would let his family survive.

If that happened, then the threat of them asking back for their real position would always remain.

Therefore he took his son. If he would not have any heir, then his family would ruin after time. That would be the best revenge.

He wanted to see them slowly withering away with time.

He had thought that Andrew would support him, but that foolish boy asked for marriage from Elizabeth.

Though they were distant cousins, it had already been many generations and when the council came to know about it, they all accepted it happily.

They were glad that the family of Thawyne would be part of the royal family again.

Their blood would be in the next emperor. He accepted because he wanted to laugh at them all his life.

The girl they were treating so preciously thinking that she was blood of Thawyne would be nothing but a fake doll his men had found in the dumpster.

He wanted to show all of them that there was nothing special in the blood of The Waynes!

He wanted to laugh at all of them when they could come to know the truth.

So, he happily agreed to this decision. But who would have thought that his foolish  son would be head over heels for the fake and would demand strange things from him for her.

It started to be a pain when Leo returned too. He felt like his power was getting lesser and lesser.

The comparison that had died with time started to appear again and his foolish son accepted warm heartedly that Leo was better than him!

Just how could he! Only the thought of it was enough to burn him with rage.

His whole body started to tremble and the desire to kill all of them engulfed him.

He had asked so many times to his men to sneak attack Leo in the borders.

He had gone as far as to mix poison in his food so many times.

But each time when they report to him that they have been successful, Leo returns without a single scratch on his body or feeling sick.

As if the person they have killed is someone else. They swear that they have seen blood coming out of his body or they have seen his body turning cold after eating poison. But he knew that all were lies to save their lives.

Or else how could he walk proudly on the land. He hated him, he hated William, he hated their whole family.

And he couldn't bear to see them happy anymore. He would take their name, their fame, their wealth everything and make them a laughing clown!

He would show everyone that they were nothing!

"No matter what you say or do Andrew, I will not spare them.

I will make sure that they would suffer a miserable death but before that, they would cry tears of blood and see hell from their open eyes!

And if you want to be a part of it. Go! I did not care whether you live or die!"
