Atlas observed as Axelia paced across the room. After the events, his father Ivan thought that they should stay over at the Moore Residence, at least until they discovered why Stalin was behind them. Although, after the announcement that was made, he wasn't so sure that his father wanted to stay any longer inside the Moore Residence or with the alliance he had made with Raphael Moore.
"I want the records on the person that left me here," Axelia finally spoke, causing everyone to stare at her. "What? For all I know, he can lead to answers and don't look at me like that Erik, I know that he is dead."
"Axelia is right," Raphael spoke. "We never thought much about the man, but he might lead us to answers."
Ivan frowned. "What do you mean a man?" Lucas let out a sigh, this was not good. "Axelia was brought to you by a man, and you didn't think that it was important to investigate him?"
Axelia rolled her eyes. "They did," She spat. "They did and they found out that I wasn't his daughter either and that no one, ABSOLUTELY no one, knew of my existence, that is of course, until now. Stalin claims that I am the Coopernate baby, and as far as I know, that is impossible."
"Or not really," Atlas added, and everyone turned to face him. "I think that Coopernate gave you up so that you were not in danger, but Stalin figured it out, causing the random man to drop you off on this very same doorstep."
Raphael smirked. "Put up the man's face," Erik did as he was told. "I knew he looked familiar; I just never paid much attention to it. Coopernate and I, we used to work together, I was the best man at his wedding," Axelia gasped. "What?"
"I think I know how Stalin figured out that I am alive," She licked her lips and showed her laptop to everyone. "Amanda," She sighed. "She is the replica as Stalin; therefore, she might even be her child."
"That's farfetched," Ivan rolled his eyes. "That's a bad conspiracy theory,"
"It is not," Atlas argued. "I have been in her class for as long as I remember, and not once has she ever approached someone and tried to befriend her, not as she has done with Axelia,"
"And we can use that to our advantage," Axelia smirked, a plan already formulating on her mind. "It's obvious that she has a mission, but we can use her mission as a way to infiltrate the Connor residence, and bring them down, after all, he was the one who murdered the Coopernate's, meaning that he is ruling in MY territory."
Raphael smiled as he saw his own daughter take command of how they were going to proceed. He was aware that she was born to be powerful, to lead and conquer whatever she wanted, but right now, he couldn't help but burst with pride, the baby that had been handed to him in a basket, was the queen of everything, and she wasn't even aware of it.

Axelia stepped inside the school with the same stance as she had always done, her head held up high, and her steps powerful, the only difference was that she now had a mission in her eyes. Instead of the permanent stoic face, she used to hold, she was now sporting the wicked smirk which had cause Atlas to fall for her.
Amanda noticed a difference in her friend, but she thought that maybe it was a simple fact, that Axelia had let go of her shy shell, and now was going to prove to the world who she really is. She waited for her friend by her locker, she was rather relieved when she learned that her own father had failed at the attempt on her life, after all, she did need Axelia's help to get rid of her own father...
"I heard," Amanda whispered as Axelia appeared. "That you went on a date with Atlas Dortmund!" She exclaimed. "I thought you never say yes, and whatnot."
Axelia rolled her eyes. "You only say yes, when you have him where you want," She added with a wink.
"You HAVE to tell me everything!" Amanda smiled. "I need to learn everything you know! So that I can apply it and get the boy that I like to ask me out."
Atlas observed from afar how Axelia interreacted with Amanda, he had learned in the few weeks of getting to know Axelia, that she trusted, but her trust was limited to what she wanted people to know. She is the master in playing people and getting everyone to do what she wants, and for some reason, he didn't mind being played by her.
"How about," Axelia spoke as she walked past Atlas. "This weekend, we have a sleepover at your house?"
"Really!" Amanda shouted and Axelia gave her a look. "Sorry, sorry, it's just, I never thought you wanted to hang out with me, like really hang out."
Axelia shrugged. "Say Friday after school I leave with you?"
"Yes!" Amanda smiled. "I'll see you after class, lover boy is waiting for you!" She added with a wink and ran off.
Axelia turned to face Atlas, and just like Amanda had said, he was waiting for her. Even when she wanted to let her guard drop and be real with him, she wasn't prepared, and that meant, playing hard to get for a little more time.
"Just because we went on one date," Axelia whispered. "Means that we are something." She added with a smirk and a wink before walking away.
"You'll be mine Axelia!" Atlas shouted with a smile as he saw her walk away.
He was going to make her, his wife.
