Music Recommendation: Elusive Man- (K)NoW_NAME

—

Vincent didn\'t know what the Hookes were up to, coming here to the Council to absurdly accuse him. He couldn\'t help but smirk as the Marchioness glared in anger, and the Marquee\'s face held a deep frown, while they looked at him.

The pureblooded vampire stood up from his seat and said, "First, you force a marriage with your daughter, and now you come to my workplace and blame me for doing something to your daughter that I have no idea about. It is a mystery to me how you are still intent on wanting your daughter married to someone so vile as me, when you know it yourself."

Marquee Hooke tried to fix it by saying to Vincent, "Aurora didn\'t mean to accuse you, Vincent. Rosetta is missing from your mansion and she is nowhere to be seen. She didn\'t take the carriage out either, and we are worried about her."

Vincent\'s eyes shifted from the Marquee and looked at the Marchioness, who continued to seethe from where she stood. A look of surprise appeared on his face and he said, "I don\'t know why, but I don\'t think Lady Aurora is in agreement with you."

Though Lady Aurora liked to use the position of having the upper hand with Vincent because of the blood seal, Marquee Hooke didn\'t want to start a rift. After all, there were still weeks before the wedding would take place between Vincent and Rosetta. He said,

"She is worried about Rosetta. We are worried that someone must have harmed her, and she has gone missing. We would greatly appreciate it, if you could help us find Rosetta."

Lady Aurora tried to control her rage, and she said to Vincent, "Rosetta is your future wife. As her future husband, it is your responsibility to find her. I hear that you are very good at finding missing people."

Vincent and Lady Aurora stared at each other for a few seconds. The pureblooded vampire calmly said, "I think you missed a little detail. The people I find are usually dead."

A quick scowl appeared on the vampiress\'s face. She stepped towards him before saying, "Find her. The terms of the blood seal clearly states that—"

"The marking blood seal states that if a physical harm falls upon Rosetta Hooke, or if she goes missing or dies, the blame goes to Vincent Moriarty so that he doesn\'t find a way to break the blood seal and he will be sentenced to immediate execution," Vincent finished what was written in the Council\'s registry. He calmly stared at the vampiress and then said, "I remember what is written. What makes you think I would break the seal? I don\'t know about you, but I do love my life. Immensely."

Before another row of argument would take place between his wife and Vincent, Marquee Hooke requested Vincent, "Please help us find her, Vincent. We have already informed Skellington\'s magistrate, who has sent his men to look for her."

Vincent ran his tongue across his perfectly aligned teeth and replied, "Are you sure that she\'s missing?"

"The entire Moriarty mansion was searched and Rosetta is nowhere to be found," Lady Aurora replied in a crisp tone. "Do you think we didn\'t try to look for her before coming here?"

​ The corner of Vincent\'s lips threatened to pull, and he responded, "Let us start from the beginning. Let me see if the people in the mansion know anything about it."

Lady Aurora rolled her eyes and gritted her teeth, "Didn\'t I just tell you that she isn\'t there? You are wasting time, when she would have escaped—"

"Hm? Escaped? I thought Rosetta was very much in love with me, and was dying to marry me," Vincent stared at Lady Aurora. "My my, what would people think if they found out that the young vampiress daughter of Marquee and Marchioness Hooke ran away?"

Watching Marquee and Marchioness Hooke affected by this, it turned Vincent delighted. To know how much they cared about their reputation and how they would take their downfall. Lady Aurora stated, "Do you plan to find her, or should we go to the Head Council for his help?"

"That won\'t be necessary, Lady Aurora. It isn\'t as if the Head Council is the one marrying your daughter. You are right. As I am her future husband-to-be, I should find her myself," Vincent smiled, and he stretched his hand forward, "After you."

While Vincent, Lady Aurora and Marquee Walter were on their way to Skellington, back in the Moriartys mansion, Eve had finished searching the corridors and hadn\'t found Eugene. She stepped out of the mansion and into the backside garden to finally find Timotei sitting on a tree with his eyes closed.

"Timotei!" Eve called the black cat, who lazily opened one of his eyes.

"I am sleeping. Wake me up later," the black cat closed his eyes.

"I need your help finding Rosetta and Eugene," Eve hurriedly said in a low voice before turning to look back and ensure no one was around.

But though the maids and other servants weren\'t in the garden to see her talking to the black cat, one of the Moriarty members, who stood on the mansion\'s first floor, noticed Eve staring at a tree and talking to it. It was none other than Marceline, who had stepped away from her room. The vampiress\'s eyes narrowed, wondering what the lowly human was doing.

Timotei, who was hidden by the tree branches and leaves, remarked, "The vampiress must have hit Eugene\'s head and kidnapped him from here until he agrees to marry her."

"Rosetta wouldn\'t hurt Eugene," Eve frowned and then said, "I worry that they are in trouble. Not to mention, Lady Aurora made a fuss before leaving the mansion. If we don\'t find them, it isn\'t just Rosetta, but Eugene will be accused of kidnapping her. Please… Timotei you are the only one who can save them."

Eve\'s words got the little cat to open both its eyes, and it said, "Of course, I am the only one who can save this world from disaster. But don\'t think I have forgotten how I was thrown out of the window and I got entangled in the bushes."

Eve was glad that Timotei was the way he was, else it would have been hard to know where to look for Eugene and Rosetta. And as the mermaid and the cat started searching for the two lost people, the human and the vampiress continued to sit in the dark isolated room.
