The Lord stood looking at house as it burnt, his men pulled out the small family and got them onto their knees. He watched then blinked though their tears and anger as the wet mud soaked though their pyjamas as they looked up at him. The head of the house looked at the Lord with fearful recognition at the man standing in front of their burning home "L…Lord Lector? I still have a week!" He cried out.

"Jonah what did you do?" The man's wife asked, Lord Lector curled his lips into a cruel

"I had to borrow money we were going under." Jonah said to his wife "The business was failing, we had no food on the table we need things for the boys! I had no choice but I still have a week to pay you back!" He turned to look at the ash blonde "I STILL HAD A WEEK!" He yelled

"I lied."

His red eyes drifted to the youngest of the family, the most gifted of his family well so he heard, looking towards his men he got them to pull the youngest boy towards him "No please My Lord leave William alone, he's just a boy he's not part of this." Jonah pleaded with Lord Lector. The boy was stood in front of him with his head down, the red eyes man reached out and hooked his fingers under the delicate chin and pulled William's head up to look at him. The boy's blue eyes were shinning in the light of the fire and still they looked anywhere but him

"Where have you gone?" Lord Lector whispered as the boy remind quiet "How old is your son?"

"S...Seventeen my lord. Please don't hurt him, he's…"

"Special you have been keeping him from me. I know what this boy is Graham. I will spare your lives… for now and I will give you 3 months to pay me back in full until them William will be coming with me."

"NO PLEASE NOT MY BOY!" Jonah's wife cried out, as the large men pulled Will into car waiting for him

"My lord please with the burning of my house how can I pay you back when I need to support my family, I will need Will's help?" Lord Lector slipped into the car next to Will who still remind quiet as a mouse

"This is not my problem Mr Graham, you came to me for a loan and you got your loan and all you have to do was repay me if you didn't have the money now how could you have the money in a week's time? Your son saved your life, I will take him home with me with where he will learn to use his gifts." He said as he turned to his driver and tapped the glass with his cain to signal him to start driving.

On the drive back Lord Lector just looked at the boy who sat there looking out the window, the curly hair framed the boy's face making him look younger than he was and he bright blue eyes were tainted by a red ring around the blues. "When were you bite?" He asked, Will turned his head to look at him from the cross the car

"I was born like this." He said, Hannibal raised an eye brown

"Either one of your parents are vampires or carriers of the gene." A sigh left Will's lips as looked down to his mud cover knees

"My father has remarried 3 times, Sarah is not my birth mother." Hannibal didn't say anything as watched him his eyes flashing as they drove down the street "Lord Lector." He asked softly, like Will was asking for warm milk for bed

"Yes William."

"Will I ever see my family again?" Lord Lector looked at the sweet boy that he couldn't wait to get him in his bed and fully turn him.

"No. You should be with our own kind, I will be your master your tutor your father, lover and finely I will be your husband." Will now looking at him right in the eyes and frowned

"And if I refused?"

"I kill your family and serve them up to you." Will looked back out the window at the moving world behind the glass

"If I agree you will lift the loan off my family and you will leave them be." Hannibal was quiet for a moment as he looked at the 17 year old and let a smile for on his lips as he leaned back

"Come and sit with me and we will talk about what I will expect from you William."

"I would like it if you called me William Lord Lector." His smile on grew on Hannibal's face

"Then you must call me Hannibal."
