"They say that there is a dragon coming, bringing darkness over England. Would you know anything about that?" Alois looked at Amari as she sat in front of his desk in his study, Claude standing behind his chair.

"No but there is suspicion that it will be a man, and he will bring the queen's fall. He will bring an army of dragons and set everything ablaze." Amari looked down at her cup of tea, wondering if she should tell them that the woman who had prophesized this had also seen the break between her and Sebastian so she was pretty reliable at the moment until she was proven wrong one day.

"So you're saying that we can do nothing to prevent that? Or would there be something you're not telling us?"

"I don't see how anything about my problems with Sebastian is any of your problem, brat." Amari glared up at Alois and stood setting her cup on the desk. "I'll see myself out, see ya later."

"Wait a minute, you didn't come here for the pleasure of Claude and I's company, did you? You came for help with something, no?" Alois grinned in her direction from where she stood in front of the sofa she had been sitting on.

Narrowing her eyes, her glare seemingly becoming sad, she sat back down and waited for the spider to continue. "Why do you care, I really only need to speak with the servants now don't I?"

Alois set his tea cup down and stood and without another word nodded in her direction and walked out of the room leaving Amari alone with the butler.

"Well, Miss Amari, what can I help you with?" Claude stepped around the chair that his master had been sitting in to stand before her, the only thing between them was the coffee table with the two cups of sipped tea.

"I want to ask you about—" Amari stopped mid-sentence, gathering the words to say what needed to be said. "I know how Sebastian feels and I know that he made a rash decision, but I'm a bit confused."

"Well, it's obvious that he doesn't really care in the end to let you off so easily and with no real goodbye either. It's sad that you should have to suffer through something as traumatic as this sort of thing."

"What? No I'm not confused about the decision that Sebastian made in the break but rather what you have in mind. Between the two of us…" Amari bit her lip. This is coming out as a love confession isn't it. Damn. "That's not what I meant…"

Looking up at Claude's face she saw that he was grinning, no grinning wasn't the right word. More of a sneering grin. Like he was the adult trying to control a child's fit.

"Now wait just a minute, stop giving me that look!" Amari shouted leaning forward readying herself to punch the demons face in.

Suddenly she was pinned onto the sofa under him, his face so close they were almost touching noses. "Excuse me, miss, but there seems to be a problem with the current arraignment of things. You see that Sebastian Michaelis is very fond of you, and as such that I have had orders to destroy him I suppose stealing his no-longer-wife should do fine." He grinned a bit more and chuckled as he managed to snatch every weapon Amari had with her and threw them across the room, which the triplets soon took away to who knew where.

Growling Amari let out her fangs and tried to bite Claude's throat but only managed to get his collar as he moved. "Now, now. You should be happy someone shows interest in you."

"What the hell do you want?" Amari glared through red as her temper grew and her blood pounded in her now wolf-like ears.

"You." Claude smiled and leaned in for the kill.
