Father was conducting business as usual during the day, but today was a rather special day for the young Lady Nethis. Finally, what she and her father have been preparing would surely come into effect. A certain man must be killed, he holds many truths that would incriminate the Thanasi House in a negative way, much more than what the world already perceives them. He is a young man, a stallion, but not a man of a noble status… He is a man who was simply at the wrong place at the wrong and saw something he wasn’t supposed to see. A dealing between two Families, the Leventi House and the Thanasi House were finalizing a necessary deal that required secrecy. Certain plans were overheard by a young man, who could have been a spy for another House, but that is only assumption made by Nethis’s father. The one thing he has been drilling in her head is to do as much as you can to secure a partnership but do what is necessary to protect your family. Tying loose ends, making sure nothing comes back to hurt the family is the mission. Nethis was briefed by her father not too long ago, he would be meeting with the Master of Secrets, Lord Fotios of Leventi, giving her time she would need to get to the young boy.
The young Nethis sat attentively in a seat to the left of her father, who sat at the top, looking expectant as they both awaited the Lord Fotios to grace their presence. He should have arrived in Colchis the night before to give him to rest, before jumping into matters so swiftly. The plan was well crafted, this was Nethis’s first strategy done without the instruction of her father… She was given the name of the young man, where he was from, and what he probably heard. Anything else Nethis would have learn about her target was through her own digging – already, Nethis proves to be an asset at her twenty years of age. The gods must have blessed Nethis as a babe, her beauty was unparallel with the Thanasi features that were both striking and radiant. The poor boy wasn’t going to know what will hit him, because Nethis was surely going to see him. The plan is to offer Nethis as payment to the young man as well as an arrangement of drachma as a way of silencing his voice, and he surely accepted the deal.
Men are idiotic. Did lower-class man really believe he was going to be married into the Thanasi family or the Head of the Thanasi House would marry his eldest daughter to a poor family? The young man should know it was all going to be a trap, if he was smart, but of course he could believe he had an upper-hand. He obviously did not know the reputations of either Houses he threatened. Nethis is to kill him. She organized everything: the place he was staying, the cuisines served, and the people that were going to be there. Maids who would be serving wine were handmaidens that took were with Nethis when she was born, so she trusted the people who were to be in the area of the death. It was a sound plan, given the nature of the death, he would be poisoned by his wine. The only thing she will have to sacrifice is her virginal status, but all would be done for the sake of the family.
Nethis sat in an all-white chiton robe that hugged onto her young body as she patiently awaited the arrival of the Lord. An official between the two members of different families is accustomed, before having to deal with the mess that was awaiting them in a suite on the opposite end of the mansion, being catered to by Nethis’s maidens.
