As you approached the elevator with Alastor standing beside you closely, you couldn't help but feel a little nervous about the information Vox had.

Would it be something random?

Or has he really dug something out that would get between you and Alastor?

You noticed a gentle touch on your lower back. As you lifted your head locking eyes with him, you saw Alastor, who appeared to be mildly concerned.

You chose to smile to show you were fine.

The elevator door opened as you stepped out, observing their place. It was rather.... nice but off-putting at the same time with the pictures on the walls.

Suddenly, the big double doors opened.

And there he was with Velvette and Valetino.

"Ah, so glad you could make it!" Vox grinned, maintaining his eye contact with you with a mischievous smirk.

You observed him with a cautious gaze as you composed yourself at the table. The sight of the sharks confined within the glass enclosure elicited a sense of unease.

"Hello Vox." Charlie beamed.

"Ah, Princess Morningstar, thank you for joining us in this meeting."

"Thank you for having us." Charlie beamed.

Vox took a moment to observe you, curious about how you had managed to capture the romantic attention of the radio demon during your time on Earth. Although Vox was aware of your past relationship, he lacked the complete narrative.

"So! I thought maybe we could decide where our problem is." Charlie started with.

"Hmm, isn't it obvious." Valetino hummed having a smoke. "Our problem sitting in front of us."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Charlie frowned.

"Since your little hotel, my famous worker lacking in his skills! He's disobedient, miles away. He can barely improvise!" Valetino sneered.

"The attention of your little crazy hosuekeepr killing Adam." Velvette said, tapping away on her phone.

"And... him being there." Vox added, glaring at Alastor.

"Okay, and why is that an issue with my hotel?" Charlie asked.

"It's gaining more attention, isn't it?" You suddenly piped up with a chuckle.

All eyes fell on you.

Vox narrowed his eyes.

"You hate the fact that Princess Morningstar and The Radio Demon have more attention and a bigger popularity than you? So Vox, what do you really want us to do? Burn the hotel? Kill Alastor here? What's that gonna do for you? Truth always comes out, don't they?" You shrugged.

Valetino went to stand up before Vox stopped him. "No, no, it's funny you say that. After all, I did some digging myself." He started with staring between you and Alastor.

"And what is it? Because I am certain it's something we already know." You let out a sigh of frustration.

"Oh, but (Y/N) you see what we found out will hurt you. Are you sure you want to know? After all, you can thank your husband for the amount of suffering you went through."

You frowned at that as Alastor narrowed his eyes, trying to figure out what he knew.

And then it dawned on him.

"I think we should end this meeting, right Charlie?" Alastor said as Charlie looked to Alastor frowning. "Hold on, we just got here." Charlie informed him.
