When he exits his fathers office, Ambrose wishes he could say hes surprised as hes flanked on both sides. The twins, with their high cheekbones and dusty blond hair, complement his left side rather well, but the future Countess and her brother, to his right, hold the eyes of everyone they pass by. The boy, older and taller than them all, is fondly called Fish by their little group. His real name is Richard, and the public knows him as the illegitimate son of the Count. The twins were the ones who dubbed him fish, after a news story that went viral a bit after Richard turned fifteen. His mother had recently been sent to the states to escape the public ridicule she had experienced since his birth, and the story had repeatedly called the whole situation fishy. It was a term that none of them had ever heard, because the article had been written by an American reporter, and they werent yet accustomed to other cultures slang. It had been a joke, but it had stuck. Ambrose hadnt felt so bad about being nicknamed Amy after that. But, truthfully, Fishs name was not at all the reason people stared. He was dark skinned, a towering hulk of a recently-turned-twenty man, and his curly-textured brown hair was kept in a tight knot at the top of his head, leaving wide, curiously amber eyes out like jewels. The Countess was like the yin to his yang, small and slight, pale with straight auburn hair, and grey eyes. Her skin was freckled and youthful, while Fish gave off an undeniable air of authority and wisdom. Perhaps Ambrose was the figure head of their age group, but Fish was the brains. His sister, who the twins called Queenie, who her brother called Ocean, and who Ambrose simply and politely referred to as Mariana, was their sanity. All of theirs.
He doesnt stop walking even after Malik clears his throat for the third time. Hes the older twin, but despite the two hours advantage that he so often boasts, Mitchel is a mirror image of him, except for the eyelashes on his right eye: Half of them are blonde, the other half black. If Ambrose wrote poetry, he might have described Mitchel as a Calico cat, while Malik would be not-so-metaphorically, or fondly, referred to as a snake. Their nicknames, incidentally, had been numerous. They didnt stick.
It isnt until Mariana softly presses her hand against his arm, and he freezes in his tracks, already in the open archway that leads to the garden. He doesnt look at her while he explains the conversation and his newest task, begging them all to give him space. Of course, being the horrible, horrible people that they are, they all stay. Fish convinces them to wait inside while Ambrose introduces himself to the prince, arguing that overwhelming him wont be much help at all.
Tell your new husband I said hi, Malik chirps as he plunges down the cobblestone path, taping the Epi-pen shoved deep in his pocket just to assure that its there. He knows, rationally, that the bees in the garden wont bother him if he doesnt bother them, but Ambrose doesnt trust that old quip. He finds the American boy in the middle of the garden, with a huge dog strewn over his lap. He almost clears his throat to get his attention, but thinking of the twins, pauses.
Youre Theodor, correct? Im Ambrose Hywel Acair Adria. Im the son of Duke Adria, I believe youre familiar with him. Anyhow, He extends a hand, weary of the dog and therefor keeping his distance, Its a pleasure to meet you. We had hoped you would have been a bit Older when we heard the news, of course, but from what Ive heard, youve made an impression on the public. -

Theo felt Ly moving under him a bit he just assumed that his crying and moving had woken the dog up. It wasn't until the dog let out a low growl and Teddy jumped clearly five feet up in the air and his head shot up and followed the gaze of the dog, his tear stained, blotchy face. He wasn't sure exactly who he was expecting to see, a maid maybe a gardener or a guard he didn't really know what he was expecting but it wasn't what he got. He flicked the dogs ear to get him to stop growling at the male approaching, he started wiping away the tears on his face, his dog raised slowly keeping his body near the ground and growled. Teddy wiped his face a bit more making sure all the tears were gone then he whistled, "Ly."The dog stopped and looked over and bounced over to him and circled the boy rubbing his sides against his face and then bumped his head into Theos chest. He chuckled slightly and nodded.
The dog shoved his head under Teddy arm and jumped up helping Theo up, once the kid was up the dog jumped up putting his paws on each of his shoulders. They stared at each other for a moment before Lycan bashed his head into Theos and dropped down off of him. Theo brushed off his pants of fur and dirt and then did the same to his shirt. He looked at the boy aware that he'd spoken yet not fully prepared to speak yet, he took a half step back, stiffly he studied him before staring down at his hand. He bit his lip and shifted a bit already uncomfortable with the stranger around even though he knew he'd met him before. He took in a small breath trying not to draw attention to it too much, he ran a hand through his hair and let out the air relaxing his body a bit and crossed his arms over his chest.
He licked his lip then bit it the lip slowly sliding out of the grasp of the two teeth, "Well, uh, I actually prefer Teddy but you seem like a stiff so I bet the best I'm getting out of you is Theo." His brows drew together a bit as he kicked himself mentally and he could definitely feel the edges of his eyes turning red again slowly. "R-rose hun."He mumbled looking away from him and pulled at the tips of his hair a bit. "U-um the Duke? Yeah I-I think I met him... Probably one of the older taller burly men I met... Only a few of those.." He mumbled the last part very sarcastically and quietly, "I'm sorry my age is disappointing to you and that my embarrassment is amusing to you I don't really know what you people expect from me bu-" He choked on his words an looked away again, "What do you want? I know you're not here off choise, so spit it out." He said a little awkwardly but serious at the same time. -
