Authors note: I am glad that your all loving the story and hopefully the next chapters will be just as pleasing as the last ones. :)

Guest: True, but unfortunately scenes like that happen more often than not so the cops and doctors are used to that and know what to do.

Guest: Danny is small, petite, blond with blue eyes... she is somewhat similar looking to Deyaneris from Game of Thrones.

Guest: What was Lars thinking? To be honest he was not thinking and put his foot in his mouth. Any way, wish granted, I continued.:)

Guess this guest: Your right, there is more to it, but will not say as I do not want to spoil it.

For now I hope you all enjoy this chapter and please leave a review when done, opinions are most welcomed. Again I must warn that this story will contain many sexual scenes and bloody deaths and such.


Moving Hans almost screamed himself, Daniel was hiding inside a closet. Pressed against a wall, the look on his face was of pure horror.

"Call the cops!" yelled Lars, Jurgen nodded as he made the call. Hans turned to follow but stopped dead on his tracks then turned to look at a hallway.

Strange, he swore he saw somebody there, but there was nobody. "Hans! Hurry up!" he heard Jurgen yell. Shaking his head Hans decided not to delve on it and continued to run after Jurgen to help in any way he could.


He is dead, that though ran through Hans head over and over. They got Daniel help, but he only lived a day or two once he was taken to the hospital.

The last few hours of Daniels life was of pure agony. His body was burned with ice, he was confused, disoriented, crazy, speaking nonsense about a woman, ice and a curse.

Whatever it meant Hans was not sure, but he was not taking chances as it was clear that Daniel died an unnatural death.

Arriving to the castle Hans hesitated as he looked over the gate, taking a deep breath he made his way, pushed the gate open and entered the castle.

Standing at the entrance of the castle were his brothers, they were all discussing something.

Hans stood there waiting for a while before he finally cleared his throat, letting them know he was there. Growling Caleb turned and snarled "What?", Hans flinched a little before glaring back and saying "What are you doing standing around?! Get back to work!".

Get back to work?! Is he nuts?! Hans admitted that he was brave, too brave, to the point the line between brave and just being crazy was dulled. But even so Hans had enough common sense to know that whatever happened to Daniel was something he did not want to encounter any time soon and if he did... all he could think of doing was to hide and pray that whatever it was did not find him and if it did it would spare him... or give him a quick death, any of those would be good..

"Are you crazy?! Did you not see what happened to Daniel?!" Hans finally shouted as he pointed at the castle "Whatever Daniel encountered was inside that castle and I don't know about you but I am not eager to turn into a popsicle any time soon!".

The more Hans spoke the darker Calebs eyes got. Walking over he threw his hand back and smacked it across Hans face. It was so fast Hans was barely able to react and dodge it.

When done Caleb pointed a finger a Hans fave and growled "You listen here you stupid brat, you have no say in what happens, it is me! I am more than in charge of you! I own you! What I say goes!" Moving his finger away he added "Now get to work before I make you regret ever being born".

Saying nothing Hans turned to leave then Caleb decided to rub salt on the wound by saying "Some brave soldier you are. You are no hero, your not even a soldier, you Hans westergaar are nothing but a coward"

Hans stopped dead in his tracks, his hands balled into a fist, his body began to shake in anger as something snapped within Hans the moment Caleb spoke those awful words.

His body reacting before Hans could register it mentally he turned, ran over and collided with Caleb, knocking him down. Pinning his older brother down Hans sat on top of him and began to punch his face over and over and over.

He aimed at various parts of Calebs face, specifically on his nose, eyes and either side of his jaw. Whenever Caleb tried to block Hans would punch his neck or chest then continued to punch his face, not stopping, not even when his fist began to hurt as he was running on rage and adrenaline.

The brothers stared in shock, never had they seen Hans like that, whenever Caleb spoke that way Hans would just remain quiet and take the abuse before leaving to do as he was told, not this time. This was the first time they had ever seen Hans fight back.

Slowing down on his punches Hans growled "I will never forgive you" stopping Hans got up and glared "I hate you!" proceeded to point at all of them "Your all no family! Your all nothing but a bunch of charlatans! Liars! I hate all of you!" he paused as he took a shaky breath, trying to calm his nerves, to keep tears in bay as he though of the past, his friends who gave their lives. How could he honor their death if he allowed himself to be like this? He is a part of them as they are a part of him, if he let people step on him... his friends will also be stepped on... He could not allow that, not anymore!

"I hate myself... for letting all of you all continue this! For not having the strength to stand up to you all sooner!" Hans finished as he got up and left.

As he walked away Caleb slowly got up, his face was swollen and bruised, his nose was smashed in and it was possible he was missing some teeth.

"You are you going? You coward" he said in a raspy, painful voice.

Stopping Hans growled "I quit!",

"You... you cannot quit!" Caleb mumbled as he stumbled foreward, but was stopped by Lars who did not want Hans to go back and continue the beating.

Turning Hans growled "Watch me!" before leaving the castle on foot since his bike was trashed. But he did not care, he said his piece and it was their funeral not his as it was not worth risking his life and sanity working to restore that castle that had who knows what roaming around and killing them off!

As Hans arrived to town he felt himself calm down and...

He felt better than he ever had before, it felt very freeing standing up to Caleb. In fact he was glad he quit, though he worried now that he had no job and barely have any income which made him wonder...

What now?

"Need a job... maybe a place to stay as I will not be going back home" though Hans as he continued to walk to formulate a plan.

About an hour or so passed before he stopped. Turning Hans saw he found himself standing before Elsas business.

"Please think about it" said Elsa then added "My door is always open to you".

She said. After thinking Hans touched the door and though "I hope that offer is still open" before opening the door and enter thr building.

Looking inside he saw the place was busy. People were here and there, having a meal which quite frankly looked and smelled mouthwatering.

Behind the counter Elsa was busy going here and there, making sure her customers were taken care off.

Walking over Hans was going to say hello only to accidentally bump into her causing her to drop plates.

"Sorry" said Hans as he began to help her up, once up he helped her up, together they began to pick up the pieces.

"Its okay" said Elsa as they got it all picked up then said "Not that I am not happy but I am kinda busy",

"Yes sorry" said Hans rubbing the back of his head and saying "Was wondering if your offer was still up?".

Elsas face brighten a bit as a sly smile spread on her face as she asked "Really?", Hans nodded,

"Alright you start right now" said Elsa as she left the front and went to the back of her business only to come back and throw an apron at Hans "Get started".

Hans chuckled as he tied the black apron around his waist and followed Elsa to help in whatever he could.

With the two of them they made fast work and were able to keep customers happy till the very last one left.

Closing shop they began to clean and put away dishes and such, "You know, I have an apartment on the top of the business, you can live there if you want" Elsa offered as she put the menus away.

"Really? I don't want to be trouble" said Hans as he finished mopping,

"No big deal, just make sure you do the prepping in the morning" explained Elsa "Tomorrow I will train you on how to do it",

"Thank you again, don't know what I would do without you" said Hans,

"Awww your going soft on me" cooed Elsa before laughing,

"Well... I am not made out of stone" said Hans causing her to laugh. Hans laughed with her, after a bit Elsa said "You need to laugh more often, it suits you",

"I have not laughed in a bit" said Hans honestly,

"That will change soon, I promise you that" said Elsa with a smile before putting away their cleaning supplies and said "Follow me, I will show you to your new home"


"I don't care! I want him in jail where he belongs!" Caleb screamed into the phone as he paced back and forth in one of the castles rooms. He had been screaming at his lawyers as he was eager to put his little brother in his place.

Sadly it seems all the evidence was on Hans side this time as Hans had return sometime during the night and took all the cameras showing evidence on who was at fault.

"Bastard!" yelled Caleb in anger as he threw the phone against the wall. He could not believe that his little brother now had the upper hand.

"Maybe you can buy Hans off" offered Jurgen, turning Caleb growled "I will not let that bastard win!" with that he left. Jurgen sighted as he left, seems he would be closing and locking the castle.

Making his way out he closed and locked the castle when he heard light laughter. Confused he looked around only to jump back when he saw a women standing behind him.

"Um... hello?" asked Jurgen as he wondered how did he not hear her coming.

The icy blue hair women gave a smile before gently tugging at her belt, loosening it before letting her dress drop significantly allowing Jurgen to see her flawless plump breast and rose color nipples.

Jurgen stared, mouth wide open as she giggled and glided away, her eyes promising delights to him as she left. Entranced Jurgen followed the beauty to the garden.

As he made his way with a stupid grin he turned to the right. The smile left his face as pure terror took over.

The women stood wells ways away, her hand was holding a sharp ice pick.

"No!" He screamed as the women launched the ice shard. A scream sounded from Jurgens mouth as it pierced his shoulder.

Falling to the ground he held his arm before scrambeling go get up and run, but she threw another ice at him, piercing his leg, he screamed and struggled as she walked over.

"No no argh!" He screamed as she shot again, this time in his abdomen then his arm, missing his vital parts.

As he cried and begged he realized something... she was doing it on purpose...

She wanted him to die slowly, to suffer...


The midsummer festival had arrived and it showed as booths were put up. Tourist came from all over, taking over the town, inns and restaurants.

Among them was Elsas business. The restaurant was packed for lunch and it was all hands on deck.

"Okay, three open sandwiches and tea" said Hans as he wrote it down on a note pad and left to the counter where Elsa was busy passing orders or taking them.

"This is crazy" said Hans as he gave her the orders,

"I though you loved crazy" joked Elsa as she handed him the food and drinks,

"Oh ha ha" said Hans sarcastically before heading to serve the food and drinks. Once served they continued to work till they got the last costumer out.

"Finally" said Elsa as she put a close sign,

"Finally?" asked Hans confused as he was picking up the plates and such.

"Yes! Were going to the midsummer festival" said Elsa as she went to the back,

"We? Wait! What about the business?" asked Hans only to stop when Elsa closed the door of the back room.

"All work and no play makes a dull person" he heard Elsa say from behind the door. Hans chuckled as he took off his apron, hang it on a hook and put on his black jacket.

Once on he turned and saw Elsa leave the back room, his eyes widen as he saw her wearing a shimmering white dress, colorful ribbons and flowers were braided into her hair.

"Wow" Hans could not help but say,

"Left you speechless" Elsa chuckled before grabbing into his arm and began to drag him out.


It was fun, too much fun, Hans and Elsa joined in on the activities of the Midsummer festival. There was a lot of dancing, music, games, food and a whole lot of drinking.

Never had Hans had such a good time before as he either joined in or watched from the crowd.

Every so often Elsa told him stories of the festival and its significance. As she did Hans felt a little ashamed as she had done so much for him and yes it was true he worked for her, she still treated him too good.

As the sun set the festival died down as everybody went home. Among them Elsa and Hans followed.

A bit tired Hans led them both back to Elsas business where they went upstairs to the loft Hans now lived in.

Stumbling a bit Hans made his way to the bed and lay down on it. Once on the bed Hans stretched a little as he was quite tired from spending all day at the spring festival.

Sitting up Hans looked at Elsa standing next to the door. Upon seeing this Hans felt a little sheepish as he had forgotten that she did not live in the loft.

"I am sorry... I will walk you home" said Hans as he felt like a jerk for making her feel forgotten. To this Elsa shook her head no and said "I want to stay".

"Stay?" asked Hans not sure if he heard what he heard as he was sure Elsa would want to go home.

Elsa said nothing as she walked over, getting closer and closer, as she did Hans grew tense in surprise, even more when she leaned in and caressed in chin ever so gently, with seduction? No... it could not be... Elsa could have whatever man she wanted, there was no way she would settle with him, besides they barely know one another.

"Stop deluding yourself!" Hans silently scolded himself before he looked on in awe.

Walking away Elsa stood a good 4 feet away, with a gentle hand she undid the belt her dress and like that the dress fell to the ground leaving Elsa completely exposed.

Hans just stared on at the ethereal beauty before him. Everything about her was perfect, so perfect it was hard for Hans to believe that such perfection existed.

Walking over Elsa sat on Hans lap, her legs on either side of him, with a gentle hand she stroke his hair down to his chin before she pressed her lips against his neck.

When it made contact with his skin Hans was barely able to hold back a moan. Her lips felt cold against his skin, it made his blood boil in seconds.

Reaching, her hands went under his button up shirt before grabbing unto it and pulling it apart, buttons went undone or flying off as the shirt came off. Once off she proceeded to kiss and bite, leaving a trail down his neck and chest as she pushed him down on the bed.

Hans head was in a fog as she unbuttoned and pulled down his pants along with his underwear.

A gasp escaped his throat as she mounted him and began to move. Pleasure filled his mind blocking every since and though he had. At that moment he cared for nothing other than getting the pleasure.

Holding unto Elsa she allowed his hands to roam around her skin as she moved, soft moans escaped her mouth as she kept at it.

In less than an instant they found their release and it was pure bliss.

Gently helping Elsa down she curled up on top of him.

It was strange, after what happened with Danny Hans though that he would not want anything to do with relationships or anything. But here he was, with a woman he barely knows yet he does not care.

There was something there between them, it was as if he knew Elsa. Why else would he be so comfortable with her?

Gently Elsa looked up at him, he placed a hand on her cheek. The two leaned in and their lips met.

Hans felt an icy blast when their lips met, it was not a bad cold, in fact it felt great as that cooling sensation filled his body which had been boiling hot seconds ago followed by a dulling sleepy sensation.

Moving away Hans pulled Elsa closer to him, she pressed her head against his neck and with that the two fell asleep.
