Helluva love

Chapter thirty nine

Stolas takes a seat in the soft cushioned chair, Stella glares over at him before focusing her attention on the projecting voice "Let me get this straight... You're getting a divorce?" the outspoken voice asks.

Stolas immediately replies claiming, "Yes, we are." Stella, still staring straight ahead, not looking at Stolas at all.

Stolas crosses his arms as he leans back in the chair looking behind him to the closed door with guards standing there. Stolas looks back as the same voice replies, "What is the reason for this?"

Stolas opens his month to try to speak but Stella interrupts saying, "It's because Stolas is fucking an imp and I cant stand it anymore, it is a horrible influence for my daughter and I don't want any of that rubbing off on her."

Stolas pauses for a moment before replying, "Firstly she is our daughter. She is just as much mine as yours if not more. Secondly you and I never got along, I tried for years but you showed no sign of wishing for anything more than utter resentment. I would argue that you wanted this divorce long before I ever had a relationship with Blitz."

"Who is this Blitz? Is that the imp you speak of?" The outspoken voice asks, now growing louder.

"Yes he is." Stella replies with a smile. "Stolas has been putting us in danger with his relationship with that imp let alone himself. He has been taken by some very dangerous people over the last few months."

Stolas turns to face her with a blank stare for a moment before his attention refocuses on the voice asking, "Is this true Stolas? Have you been in danger due to your relationship with the imp?"

Stolas replies, "Well I can't say that it is because of my relationship with Blitz. In addition to this I feel that after we finalize this divorce and make it official I would be in much less danger?" Stolas says in a questioning tone.

Stella replies claiming, "I don't think that the danger will stop until they get what they want." Now turning to the voice Stella continues, "I just want Stolas to be safe is all so maybe if he just stayed away from the imp and stayed with me for a while just to see if these people stop hunting him?"

"I think that decision is up to Stolas. If he feels that he needs to be with you to be safe then I would advise that he remains with you for now, but if he feels that he can handle himself then the choice is entirely his own." The voice now fading says before disappearing.

Silence fills the room for a moment before Stolas looks to Stella as he says, "I'd much rather take my chances then have to spend another moment with you."

"I couldn't agree more." Stella replies with a devilish grin.

Stolas gets up  and walks through the door, the guards moving away allowing him easy access through the doorway. The soft breeze of sending a shiver down his spine. Stolas looks up into the night sky seeing the bright, glistening stars shining above him.

Blitz falls out of the window as he tries to escape from the house of one of the hits for IMP. He lays there for a moment looking up at the stars before seeing Moxxie looking down at him. Moxie asks, "Blitz? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine Moxxie. Let's go."  Blitz replies as he opens a portal back to the office as everyone hurries through.

Blitz, now in the office, looks at his phone and sees that he has a missed call from Stolas. Blitz goes into his office as he recalls Stolas. Not even a second after ringing Stolas answers the phone saying, "Blitzy! How are you?"

"I'm good, what's up?"

"Well...Not much I was just wondering if now would be a good time to stop by and maybe we could have a talk?" Stolas asks with a questioning tone seeking an answer.

"Sure you can stop by the office? Or would you prefer my place? Doesn't matter to me. I'll be at the office for a few more hours."

"I'll see you soon then." Stolas replies as he hangs up the phone with a smile on his face.
