It became a point of contention even in the chambers of his thoughts. "I truly Dracula is the one behind this, then this, I cannot allow. Despite our tumultuous history, my daughter should be spared the burden of my sins."

So Reaves takes it upon himself to visit Nexus at the Russell family home, as he's heard that Nexus has been close to Dracula lately. As Reaves made his way to the Russell family home, the grandeur of the mansion loomed before him. The ornate architecture spoke of wealth and prestige, a stark contrast to the shadows that clouded the city. Madeline, the matriarch of the Russell family, welcomed him with a grace befitting her station.

In the hallway, Reaves and Madeline exchanged pleasantries, "Reaves, what a pleasant surprise," Madeline exclaims, her eyes brightening with a genuine warmth. "To what do we owe the honor of your visit?"

Reaves offers a courteous smile, acknowledging the opulence around him. "Madeline, always a pleasure to be in the presence of the Russell family. I've heard Nexus has been around, and I thought it's about time we catch up, given the recent events in the city." 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝓬𝓸𝓶

The weight of recent events casting a somber undercurrent to their conversation. The specter of danger that loomed over the city was a topic that needed no introduction.

Madeline gestures for Reaves to follow her into the tastefully adorned foyer. "Certainly, Reaves. We can use the sitting room for our conversation. It's been too long since we've had a chance to discuss matters."

As they settle into the plush chairs of the sitting room, Madeline inquires, "How has Tiffany been? I heard about the recent incident. I hope she's recovering well."

Reaves leans back, a solemn expression on his face. "She's shaken, Madeline, but resilient. Thanks to Nexus and others, we managed to avert a tragedy. But it's a stark reminder of the dangers lurking in our city."

Madeline nods in understanding, her eyes reflecting a shared concern for the safety of their loved ones. "Indeed, these are trying times. Nora is still in recovery as well. The city has become a precarious place, and our families seem to be entangled in the web of events."

Reaves leans forward, a note of empathy in his voice. "I wanted to extend my deepest apologies to you and Nora. She risked her life to save Tiffany, and I regret the danger she had to face because of my daughter's predicament, and for that, I am truly sorry," Reaves admitted, his voice carrying a sincere note of regret.

Madeline's expression shifted, a sadness settling in her eyes. "No need for apologies, Reaves.?Nora made a choice, and as you said, these events are intertwined with fate. We bear our burdens as they come. Nora is strong, and what happened was meant to be. Fate has a way of weaving intricate threads," she responded, her words carrying a stoic acceptance.

Their conversation delved into the profound topics of destiny and takes a contemplative turn as they discuss the enigmatic nature of destiny and the unpredictable turns life can take. The twists and turns of life that often defied explanation. The weight of shared sorrow hung in the air, a silent acknowledgment of the unpredictable nature of their intertwined lives. The shared understanding between them creates a bridge of empathy, transcending the boundaries of familial alliances.

Madeline, with a thoughtful gaze, finally asks, "Reaves, I sense there's more on your mind, there's more to this visit than a simple apology.. What is it that brings you here beyond the gracious apology?"

Reaves takes a moment before responding, "You're right, Madeline. I've come to see Nexus. There are matters that require discussion, matters that concern both our families and the safety of the city. Recent events have raised concerns,"

Madeline, ever perceptive, absorbed the gravity of Reaves's words, her eyes glint with a mixture of curiosity and determination.

Madeline told Reaves to wait as Nexus would soon emerge from his alchemy room. Reaves nodded appreciatively, acknowledging her consideration. The grandeur of the Russell mansion provided a luxurious backdrop to the anticipation that filled the air.

In the opulent sitting room, surrounded by timeless artifacts and ancient paintings that whispered tales of bygone eras, Reaves settled into a plush chair. The atmosphere exuded an air of sophistication, a fitting setting for discussions that held the potential to shape the destiny of the city. freew(e)bnovel

As Reaves waited, Madeline's words lingered in the air. "Reaves, as long as you don't say anything that may hurt Nexus, I'm okay with you two meeting. He's like a son to me, and I'd do anything for my children." Her sentiment, though expected, carried a depth that underscored the unique bond between Madeline and Nexus.

The revelation of this deep connection took Reaves by surprise, but he masked his emotions behind a composed facade. "I understand, Madeline," he replied, his tone measured. "I assure you, I won't do anything to cause harm."

Madeline, with a gentle nod, left the room, leaving Reaves to his thoughts. The hushed ambiance of the sitting room, adorned with relics of a bygone era, created a contemplative space.

Reaves took in the intricate details of the room, his gaze wandering over the ancient paintings that seemed to hold secrets of their own. The artifacts, carefully displayed, whispered tales of history and mystique. It was a room that bore witness to the passage of time, and Reaves found himself immersed in the beauty of the surroundings.

The door creaked open, and Nexus, adorned in robes that hinted at his mastery of the arcane, stepped into the room. His eyes met Reaves's, the air carries the faint scent of exotic ingredients, a testament to Nexus's proficiency in the arcane arts.

"Reaves," Nexus greets him with a nod, his eyes reflecting a mix of curiosity and acknowledgment. "What brings you to the Russell mansion?"

Reaves, ever composed, rises from his seat. "Nexus, we need to talk. Recent events have brought about concerns, and I believe that every information is crucial for the safety of the city."

Nexus, sensing the gravity of Reaves's words, takes a seat. "What's on your mind, Reaves?"

Before Reaves can respond, Madeline reenters the room, her presence commanding attention. "Nexus, I'll leave you two to your discussion. Remember, Reaves, keep in mind what we discussed."

Reaves nods, acknowledging Madeline's reminder. "I understand, Madeline. Our conversation will be prudent and respectful."

Madeline smiles, a motherly warmth in her eyes. "Good. I'll be in the garden if you need anything, Nexus." With that, she leaves the room, leaving Reaves and Nexus to their important discussion.

Reaves, devoid of any circumlocution, dives straight into the heart of the matter. "Nexus, I'm aware of your visits to Dracula's house, even before the recent incident." Nexus meets Reaves's gaze, his expression a canvas of intrigue and curiosity.

Without preamble, Reaves delves into the crux of his inquiry. "Have you noticed anything unusual during your visits? Any strange behavior or recent changes in Dracula's demeanor?" Reaves's eyes bear the weight of anticipation, searching for any inkling that might unravel the mysteries veiled within Dracula's residence.

Nexus, thoughtful in his response, shakes his head.
