Disclaimer: Chapter 1

AN- Now you see why I said it would have The White Bear references in it… but that's all I'm saying! You'll have to figure it out…

Lane was so angry. He had let his guard down for a moment, and had been shamed. And by a girl who was so beautiful.

He had locked himself in his room, and was destroying anything he could get his paws on. He knew none of the servants were brave enough to interrupt one of their master's fits.

There was one unbroken mirror in his room. That, witch Emily had given it to him as a "present". It was a truth mirror; it showed people's souls.

He gazed into it. The reflection back wasn't a hideous monster, but a tall young man with wavy chestnut hair, strong jaw and cheekbones, and ice blue eyes.

A handsome young man. Not a monster.

He rested his furry face against the mirror and sobbed.

Not all of the servants in the castle were afraid of Lane whenever he threw a tantrum. There was one brave soul who usually confronted Lane during this time.

His job description was an evil genius that was trying to take over the world, but in actuality he was a really funny guy whom you could talk to about anything.

He walked into Lane's room, and dodged a glass vase aimed at him.

"GO AWAY!" Lane screamed, throwing more objects in different directions.

"Now is that any way to treat your favorite person?" Riley asked, sitting on the undamaged part of Lane's bed

"Oh, its you." Lane replied, looking sheepish.

"That's better. Now what's gotten you into a rage this time?"

"Remember that girl that was found in the forest?" Lane asked.

"The red head? What'd you do now?" Inquired Riley.

"I didn't do anything! She's the one that nearly fainted when I showed her myself!" Lane answered, slumping into a chair.

"I'd faint too if I wasn't used to your looks dude," Riley replied, getting a nasty glare from Lane. "But seriously, give her time. Quit acting like a big baby and go and talk to her."

"How's that going to help?" Lane asked.

"I don't see how it couldn't. She might be repulsed by your looks, but at least she'll know your somewhat kind."

Lane smacked the back of Riley's head, but left to find Ruth.

Riley laughed, and continued his thoughts of world domination.
