Heir (Sean/White) - Devils in the house

Author's note: Part 28/??

Getting the annoying horns to disappear was easier than Sean thought. He almost laughed when White told him to imagine them disappearing, and they would. The bubbling fire in him slowly faded and he almost felt like himself again. The gang plus the devil twins gathered around the tiny table, ready to discuss the next step. Sean knew what he wanted to do and to whom, but he didn't want to bring it so soon. In a way, he wanted White to be the one dragging him up the ladder and let himself be eaten. 

"I don't really understand it. Todd is Duke and you two are what? Are you on the same level as him or what?" Yok asked, pulling Sean out of thinking.  Honestly, he was curious too. There was no doubt the twins were high-ranked demons, but knowing more about them wouldn't hurt. 

"Do not compare us. Todd is a pest who thinks he can depose Satan from his throne." Black spat angrily. Yok raised his hands in apology. 

"That didn't answer the question," Sean dared to say. The look Black gave him didn't scare him anymore. And for some reason, he would happily take him head-on. White's soft hand landed on his tight, calming the smouldering seed of his anger. 

"Our family is one of three that can trace its direct lineage back to Satan," White explained.  The room fell into the silence. Sean blinked at his demon companion in confusion. 

"So you are Satan's heir?" Gram squeaked. Black rolled his eyes but stayed silent, waiting for his brother to continue clarifying. 

"Not exactly. There is a possibility that one of us could inherit the throne of Hell in the future, but we are not the only ones." 

"Right, you said there are two other families." Gumpa nodded. 

"Yes."White smiled at the older man, and a wave of jealousy washed over Sean as he watched his companion interact with him. In a possessive gesture, he reached for White's waist and pulled him onto his lap. The little demon didn't seem to mind the display of affection, unlike his brother.
