Kell had always avoided talking about the other worlds; he preferred to keep them apart and away from Rhy. Rhy had always lusted after information of these other worlds, grasping after scraps of knowledge that might help him understand his brother further. Now there was Lila who not only was from another London, she had an insight into the other worlds first hand from his brother.
Rhy lay awake thinking about how he could possibly approach Lila about these worlds when it hit him, Alucard. He had been the girls captain, he could find information out from the girl without Rhy unsettling Kell. Kell had always been so cagey about the other Londons and while Rhy could understand this, he longed for this understanding.
"Has Lila told you about the other Londons?" Rhy asks, looking out of his bedroom window out over the scarlet hues of the sunset transforming the red of the Thames into an even more vivid shade.
"Bard isn't one to go on you know. She explains the worlds as Dull London, Kell London, Creepy London and Dead London." Alucard states lounging on the bed, hands behind his head.
"Is that all she has said? Dull, Kell, Creepy and Dead?"
"The only things she cares about in relation to those other worlds is that she has left hers. She like the adventure that this one provides her. If you care that much ask her or perhaps your brother may indulge you intrigues."
"You know Kell does not approve of my intrigues." Rhy moans.
"He has seen plenty in those other worlds, Rhy. That is why he is such a sullen pain in my ass."
"He is a sullen pain in your ass because he doesn't like you." Rhy laughs moving away from the window to gaze over Alucard.
Alucards hand reaches out from where it lay to meet Rhys, grasping the prince by the wrist and pulling him down onto the bed alongside him.
"Have I mentioned you are too familiar with your prince, Emery?"
"You may have done, and I seem to remember having claimed you as my own once or twice." his lips graze Rhy's throat, the act calling an end to any previous conversation and making that moment about their world together only.
