Episode 23

Bellion's POV

"Miss me, little sister?"

The look on her face was too precious to not forget. To put on such a front despite feeling fear, she was amusing that way. Always concealing her expressions with what she truly felt. A few had been a victim of that little act of hers but whenever it came to me or Belial, its a petty choice of facade.

No matter how hard she tried to mask her fear, we could always see it through her eyes as the familiar smell of belladonna's waft through the air. Unlike others, Cordelia's scent of fear was the most unique one and we often scare her just for the heck of it.

She always put up a mask on whenever she sees me or my brother nearby and that had just made everything fun since we liked to see how long she would keep acting like a brat.

'Really though. Having her as our descendant is offending, even Mene was better than her along with Krone.'

"That expression is really worth seeing, too bad Belial isn't here to witness it for himself." I sighed exhasperatedly and shrugged my shoulders. "Too bad only one of us could come. If Belial were here, this would've been the most perfect reunion for us! We shared quite the memorable memories afterall."

"Memorable? You reminisce killing me memorable?!" She screamed and I frowned. "Are you raising your tone at me?" She flinched and averted her gaze. I sighed. "Even after all those etiquette lessons you still don't know how to act like a lady, huh. What a waste of effort on someone who will always be a disgrace." She chewed on her lips in annoyance.

"And of course we would find that a memorable memory! Why wouldn't I? That was the very first time you actually begged for mercy and help! And may I remind you dear sister?" I smirked directly at her and crossed my arms over my chest. "I like seeing you cry."

"Please! Don't do this! I'm sorry!  Have mercy!!"

"AHAHAHA! Are you hearing this brother? She's actually begging us to not kill her!"

"Heh. And to think you have demon blood in you. What a pathetic disgrace you are."

"Brothers please! I don't want to die! I'm sorry! I'll do anything so please!"

"Do anything? But dear, the only thing we want is for you to die."

"You are the worst." I scoffed at her words. "You seem to forget. We demons love torturing the weak ones, and in this case, you're the weak one in the family." She scowled before smirking. "I'm the vampire king's wife, you can't lay a hand on me!"

I can see a little bit of hope in her eyes as she said that making me snort. "I believe lab rat would be the more appropriate term." "You dare insult me!" "Ahaha~ You really know nothing do you? You're father agreed to give you away to get Karl Heinz away from breathing too near his neck."

Everyone in the room seemed intedted of my words and I grinned at Cordelia as she stared at me in confusion. "What are you talking about?" I sighed with a hand on my head. "Seriously. Did you really think Belial and I would bring you back to life just because your father asked us to?" "He ordered you too!" "No one orders us around. Not you, not Mene, not Karl, and most especially not your father who hold the title of a demon lord."

"That title given to him is simply an insult to us demons." I muttered while rolling my eyes. "We agreed with your father to revive you because of the proposition Karl promised us and believe me when I say that husband of yours is in quite the debt to me and Belial."

"The old man is in debt to you?" Laito asked. "Impossible, I have never heard of my brother making promises to a demon." Richter whispered making me smirk. "Why would he need to let his little brother know of his plans? Your a part of his plan too. So technially, you are as much as lab rat as the rest of the occupants right now." He growled.
