A week Later....

Julius

"Why did this happen?" My father yelled. He slammed his fist down hard on his desk, and made everything shake.

"I don't know why she did what she did, she is new to her powers." I replied.

"This isn't something that we can take lightly her actions could hand her a ticket to purgatory, and if that happens we will be a made a laughing stock. How do you think it will look if the soon to be king fiance turns out to be an uncontrollable demon?" He growled loudly.

"You don't know shit about her to say that, she was angry and confused. She was attacked for no reason what do you expect?" I bit out.

"I expect her to carry herself as a future princes would, and not act like a lunatic and go destroy half our jail." He seethed.

'"The new king is coming to our gala, and I expect her to act like she had sense." He informed me.

"Why the hell would he come here?" I questioned in shock.

"Maybe the damn near earth size crater a newbie demon created, someone has been talking," He hissed.

"So then isn't that your fault these are the beings you chose not me, I will be able to trust those in my court." I seethed.

"You are not the king yet boy bite your tongue before I have you swallow it." He said standing up from his desk.

At that moment my mother barged into the office. "That is enough I can feel the power dripping from both of you, do you two intend to fight it out? Stop the bullshit now. What happened is insane, we have to focus on why Edison did what he did. We also have to re-due are gala because of all of this, and we have a day to do it. Not only that the king of the underworld is coming, not of a clan, no the boss of everything who can take the title away from both of you." My mother seemed like a very elegant woman on the outside, but she was a no nonsense give it to you straight lady. My father didn't like to hear about anyone being more powerful than him;epically when it was someone a year younger than me.

"The point is we all need to be on guard, because I feel he is after Adlyn." She added.

"What do you mean?" I questioned. My mother also had strong intuition, and when she got a bad feeling on something she was usually right.

"Is it her power." My father stated rubbing his hand on his chin.

"Why she isn't the only demon with that gift." I replied.

"It's not the gift itself its how powerful hers is." He responded. "The king seeks power, and wants the most powerful to be under him."

"I won't let that happen." I growled.

"Do you have the power to stop him?"My father questioned.

I didn't answer I just walked out the room, because I knew there was no point and answering that question. Hale was the descendent of Hades there was no way in hell I could take him on, and even if I could it would be suicide. Our clan was powerful but not powerful enough to take on the king of the underworld, and his ghost army. They got that name for a reason and it was a name they got under his reign. I was worried as hell about him coming here and just hoped shit with smoothly. I took a deep breath and prepared to go back home, and try and talk to Adlyn. She was pissed and for good reason she had been working out and walking around in a horrible mood. I wasn't sure what to say or do because I was pissed at her and pissed at Edison he still wasn't speaking. I understood her rage believe me I wanted to rip his head off but that isn't the way things work. So now I had to figure out away to get us back on the same page, but I wasn't sure how to make that happen.

Phaedra

Had been listening to my mother complain about how I had thought of a horrible and dumb plan all day. She loved to let me know that I wasn't doing things the way she wanted me to do them, but yet money came in because of me. I had done a lot of shady shit to get us a lot of the things we had, and she appreciated nothing. No she like to remind me that she was once in my shoes and she once had to do the things I had to do.

"What is your plan now huh?" My mother bit out.

"I have only one option left, I shouldn't have sent a man to handle a woman's job." I seethed.

"Well I don't care to here what you are going to do, just get it done." She ordered.

"I will take her out myself." I hissed.

"Oh your actually going to handle something yourself?" She laughed.

"I will get it done, and than you can shut the hell up." I spat and stomped out of the room.

I couldn't stand my mother and couldn't wait till I was with Julius, once we were together I wouldn't need her either. Edison was easy to manipulate he had a thing for Orva, she was my night and she had him wrapped around her finger. Of course I didn't think the little bitch had a strong enough power to survive being attacked by a knight, she was only a newbie demon.

It was clear that I had to put all my cards on the table it go after the bitch myself. I refused to just walk away from this just like that, and I was going to get rid of that girl before the wedding. I knew the wedding would take place soon and I had to make sure she was gone. I knew that Midas would have everyone on guard after what happened with Edison, so I would have to wait.

I had a special gift, my illusion technique was coming along nicely and decided to go to the dungeon to practice. It was an amazing torture tool that I had begin to use to help us get what we needed. It was amazing thing the mind, and how you could emotional effect someone. I would break that little bitch into a million pieces, and by the time I was done she would truly know what hell was.

"Hey Phaedra can I speak with you." Orva said walking up to me.

"I had planned to go to the dungeon, is it urgent?" I questioned.

"Yes I believe it is." She replied.

"The king of the underworld is said to be attending the gala that the Black Pegasus are having again.' Orva said as soon as the doors to my office shut.

"Why would the king of the underworld be worried about them?" I questioned.

"I have no clue and the guess list to the gala have been changed because of it, that is all I know. Everyone is talking because the king of the underworld doesn't just pop up without reason." She answered.

"Well maybe he wants to work with the clan closely, and if that is the case I need to have my spot back. Julius loved me at one point and I think he still does, I just have to show him that." I smiled as I sat down at my desk.

"What are you going to do?" Orva asked.

"Well before I handle miss thing I need him to see me again, so I'll have to bump into him and drudge up so old memories. Julius is tough when it comes to certain things, but I know him well to know when he cares; he cares." I replied.

Orva and I had grown up together she was the only one I could truly confined in beside Lucas, and that was different.

"You will make it happen I know you will, and once you do don't fuck it up you love him than hold on to him." She said sternly.

"I know I was foolish I couldn't let go of my old ways, but I do regret it and I'm sorry about Edison I know you had fun with him." I said softly.

"Yeah fun seeing how far I could make him go against his own clan for a taste." She giggled.

She walked over to the bar and poured us both a drank and than we sat down and I told her of my plans. I knew she was the best one to bounce ideas off of, and somehow she would help me snag what I wanted.
