"Good morning!"

Klara was stretching in her bed and yawning loudly when she heard Roshan's voice coming from nearby. Panicking she sat up hastily on her bed. Roshan was sitting at her table while holding a newspaper in his hands. Klara could smell freshly made tea and bread before she looked at the table and found that breakfast was already served.

"You are still here?" She whispered surprised.

He looked up from his newspaper. "Yes. Why would I leave when I could have a royal breakfast."

Klara got out of bed quickly, slipped into her slippers and walked up to him. "Who served you breakfast?" She asked anxious.

"Your servants." He replied relaxed.

Klara hit herself on the forehead which made Roshan chuckle.

"Are you insane?! How could you show yourself?" She scolded.

"Ah...about that. Don't worry, I manipulated everyone." He winked.

Someone knocked on the door and soon a maid came in. "My lord, here is your coffee. I made it strong just the way you like it." She smiled putting the tray on the table.

"Thank you." He smiled at her charmingly making a blush creep to her cheeks. "Would you like coffee or tea?" He then asked turning to Klara.

Klara kept staring at the maid dumbfounded. Why was the maid not asking questions about who this man was? Was Roshan that great at manipulating people?

When she said nothing Roshan waved his hand in dismissal and the maid left.

Klara turned to Roshan. "Can you do that? I mean who does she think you are?"

"No one in particular. I just made her believe that I am someone she had always been serving." He said wrapping the newspaper and tossing it aside on the table before standing up.

"Are you leaving?" Klara hurried to ask.

Roshan was glad to see that she didn't want him to leave. He walked up to her and put his hand lightly on her cheek. She had been torturing him the whole night so he needed some time alone, besides he had things to take care of.

"Yes I have some things do to, but I'll be back." He assured her. "By the way, you look cute when you snore."

He had been watching her the whole night while she turned back and forth while heavy grunting sounds came from her mouth. He never thought that he would find such sounds endearing.

"I don't snore!" She said as her cheeks flushed.

He grabbed her face between his hands. "You do princess, but don't worry I won't tell anyone about it." He teased her.

She gave him a hard glare. "You annoy me, Roshan."

"And you delight me." He placed a kiss on her cheek and looked at her face one last time before he left.

Roshan arrived at Decresh, more specifically in the throne hall where Lucian just recently got crowned.

"What are you doing here?" Lucian's voice came from behind.

Lucifer had asked Roshan to help Lucian understand his powers and become stronger. Roshan could have denied his request since he had already paid his debt but knowing what Lucifer and Irene endured all these years he wanted to help. Not for Lucian's sake but for his parent's sake.

"Just as I came here easily other demons can too," Roshan spoke without turning to him.

"I was waiting for you."
