Thunder cackled as a 10 year old boy stood in front of a ransacked room covered in blood and a corpse.
Mother...
The boy thought as he stood in front of the room, his hands and legs shaking while in the background people were running to the room to clean it all up, some soldiers grabbed the corpse of the boy's mother while some shouted in dread "Duke's wife is dead, someone inform the Duke."
Soon after the boy stood in front of his mother again but it was in front of her coffin which was burnt under the orders of his father the Duke.
That moment, all he felt was rage and desire to push this world down under his flames of dread but he couldn't unleash it, he couldn't show it because he knew it. If he were to do it, he would have the very same fate which his mother had.
Be silent, I must not do anything other than shedding tears...
The boy thought that while his mind was filled with anger, his face only showed the sadness and sorrow of a young child who lost his mother.
I will keep my promise to my mother for I will survive because I must be alive to have revenge for what they did to me.
He thought whilst placing his hands on the coffin since the funeral ceremony was about to end and it would be the last time he could ever be with his mother.
Revenge.. I will have it...
His mind had those words etched while he bit his lower lips hard to ensure he wouldn't reveal what he was thinking through his face especially when he got the glimpse of the preparators shedding false tears while smiling on the side.
The boy saw them, his step mother and her family who were there at the sideline watching and acting as if they had no hand in it while his father who seemed to be rather not giving much care into in the first place.
Mark my words... I will survive... I will have my revenge... You all will suffer...
Thoughts of a 10 year old boy, Estefan Angeras took an oath that day to get revenge for the murder of his mother and he would enact it in a brutal way which none expected.
