Chapter 1

"It is the celebration of the empress and her future emperor consort, Your grace" ijekiel's eyes went wide. He didn't know that lucas had already- he was to focused on jenette that he couldn't believe it.

Jenette was also shocked. She knew that ijekiel liked her cousin, she felt bad now,
She didn't resent him for rejecting her, it was her father, he didn't tell her his plan.

The former duke was not so surprised, he knew from the beginning, he just hoped for his dear son to not be hurt by this.

He was dead wrong.

The duke left dinner early and went to his office to properly process what he had heard.

Ijekiel was dumbfounded, he could not blink, he was still in shock.

He didn't sleep that night. He kept doing work to get his mind off of that.

He was afraid, he was afraid that his thoughts would get out of hand.

He was afraid he will be consumed by the thoughts and do something the empire would never imagine.

No, He cant do that, he has his public image to take care of, He can't damage the house of alpheus.

It was already bad when the empire found out that anastasius was hiding there.

But, how can he process his own feelings when his families reputation is on the line? His relatives will give him another scolding for shaming their name.

Its exhausting

He remembered when he was young he always couldn't wait to take on his fathers title. Now he wants to go back to being a child, he took on being duke way to young he was only 18.

How can he continue to being a duke if he can't handle this? Why can't he be like his father during his time being duke?

"Excuse me, My lord, Lady jenette is lo-"

"Get out."

"I'm sorry my lord I didn't he-"

"I SAID GET OUT!" The poor servant quickly got out of the room, he then realized what he just did.

How could he be ever forgiven? He failed to control his emotions, if word gets the image of the alpheus family-!

*sigh*

He put his hand on his forehead, brushing his hair upward

For the last few days before the celebration, he tried to prepare some gifts but he couldn't bring himself to

Jenette helped him for the preparation, managing the for the decorations for the streets and guards to control the crowd next week.

Today, was the day for the celebration

Ijekiel prepared a ring, A diamond ring that matches athanasia's eyes

It was a congratulation gift for the two.

He looked at the ring and closed its box
and stored it away in the drawer in his room. He sat down on his chair and was writing a letter

Knock Knock

"Brother ijekiel? Are you...gonna go to the ceremony...?" Jenette's recognizable soft voice echoed into ijekiel's mind

"No... I'm not feeling well. Though, I have this gift and letter. Please give this to the empress and-" Ijekiel's lips stopped and took a short pause

"Her emperor" Jenette understood and nodded

Soon, ijekiel looked out his window and saw jenette leaving in the carriage with the alpheus seal. She is the representative of the alpheus family from now on.

Somewhere, in a secluded place in earth

The world tree is pissed, not only did it got its branch stolen, lucas didn't do the things it asked him do

If it can get out of that place, it would kill lucas and burn his remains and send him off to hell and-

the tree felt a powerful wave of negative emotions, it wondered what being was doing that

It looked in and found out it was a certain white haired young man having his depressive episode.

It was surprised a human being was capable of that strong emotions.

Then an idea hit the tree

What if, he could be Lucas replacement?

It seemed perfect! Lucas hated his guts, he has strong emotions and ambitions, what's even better is that, he looks like Lucas old mentor.

The world tree teleported ijekiel to the place it was in.

Ijekiel woke up in shock, did he die in his sleep? He realized he was in a white place and looked up and saw the world tree

"What...what am i doing here...?" Ijekiel asked the tree

"Consider yourself lucky, I'm going to be your mentor, you're going to be Lucas's replacement" ijekiel's eyes went wide when the tree mentioned lucas, the tree then transformed to look human it then walked around and leaned foward at ijekiel ever being so close.

"I'm going to teach you magic spells that was never mentioned on books, on lucas 's level or even greater. Doesn't that sound nice?" The tree grinned at poor ijekiel

"But the duchy, I can't just leave jenette and father on their own-!" The tree looked displeased when he said that

"Don't you want that girl? Won't it be able to win her over?"

"I...I don't want to steal her happy ending with lucas...I would want her to be happy..." The tree looked at him, rolling its eyes.

"Whatever, just know that you can't leave here, only I can get you out in here." Ijekiel's expression worsened, the tree smirked at his Expression.

"Fine...just don't take long with this training. I still have the duchy to handle" Ijekiel sighed and the tree's smiled cheerfully

"haha! Ofcourse you wouldn't even realize it's over!!" The tree exclaimed

Ijekiel sighed

Not knowing it will take atleast centuries of training to get to the expectations of the tree

**
This was the most angsty chapter I have written in all my 13 years of life

I tried to portray some emotions like heartbreak, pressure, and just neglecting your emotions and such. I may not really did it well cuz this is my first time writing heavy topics but yeah :D

I also took some inspiration from 'For my abandoned love' so i hope thats fine

This idea was from tumblr user lukielsuff except I put my own ideas in!!

Anyways, I enjoy writing this either way. Also, recommend some things to show up in later chapters~!
