Stolas stood before his full-length mirror. He grinned and turned around a few times. His new robe flowed around him. While they had been a bit out of his usual price range, it had been worth it. There wasn't any super special occasion for the new threads. Stolas just wanted something new to throw on around the mansion. As he was busy checking himself out, Stella walked in to tell him that lunch was ready. But the sight of the new robe made her stop. She stuttered over her words, making Stolas laugh. It was rare to see her flustered anymore. But it was also nice to know that he still had it. Stella quickly left to set the table. Stolas took a few minutes to take some pictures. And to mess with his wife, he put in an order for more clothes.

The new clothes arrived a few days later. This time, it was a fancy shirt and pants. He immediately tried them on. And he loved it. Now all he had to do was wait for the wife. Stella was currently out with her girls. She wouldn't be back till late in the afternoon. In the meantime, Stolas booked a private room at Hell Garden for dinner tonight. The owner Angel Dust himself handled the reservation. Stolas also went out and did a little shopping. He returned once the checklist was checked off. And there was still time before Stella returned. He knew she would be hungry and made some snacks.

Stella finally pulled up in the driveway after dropping everyone else off. Tired, she dragged herself in and fell on the sofa. It was nice to be home. She dozed off, now able to relax. The sound of chuckling soon disturbed what little rest she had gotten. Stella opened her eyes. She sat up. Before she could go off, Stolas handed her the tray of delights and sat next to her. He smiled as she stared. The new clothes were amazing. Stella regained her composure and quickly filled her mouth with berries, cubed cheese, and more. Stolas gave her a drink and patiently waited. When she was full, he handed her his phone showing the dinner reservations.

Of course, Stolas strutted his new look at dinner. Angel Dust greeted them at the door. As a waiter guided them to their private room, he got quite a few stares and jealous glares. Stella held his arm and glared back. It was very amusing. They ordered initial drinks and added for later. As they waited, Stolas handed her one of the things he had bought earlier. It was a bracelet made from some of the rarest gems in Hell. Mining the raw material took months. Cutting it for jewelry and setting it took another month. Stella marveled at the design and slid it onto her wrist. It was beautiful.

On the drive home, Stolas and Stella talked about their lovely daughter. Octavia was well on her way to becoming a princess. She had her father's power and her mother's regal nature. But she also had her own ways of running things. Once inside, Stella dragged her husband upstairs. Stolas didn't bother. He didn't need to ask to know what she had in mind. Luckily, Octavia was having a sleepover with the girls. There was no need to keep it down. However, they still locked the door.
