Well, there's no need for the RelatedEntityId to also be a property in the Entity class. Because the RelatedEntity class should have it's own ID (say you call it RelatedEntityId as a property in that classes mapping). So you should be able to retrieve an Entity, and do Entity.RelatedEntity.RelatedEntityId.
