Stolas walks into his bedroom after being dropped off by Blitzo in front of his home. Stolas can't help but sigh in disappointment. Today was supposed to be a great day. Blitzo asked him on a date to Ozzie's, but it became a disaster. He was ridiculed in public by a Sin. Blitzo reminds him that their relationship is just based on a deal. Stolas wants it to be more, but Blitzo makes it so hard. 

Stolas, not wanting to deal with these problems right now goes to his cabinet and grabs his happy pills. Stolas pours a handful of them onto his palm and swallows them. 

Stolas brings up his phone to check his photo gallery. Stolas is even more upset as most recent photos of him with Blitzo seem tone-sided. In the photos, Blitzo doesn't seem to be enjoying himself. To help himself, Stolas starts singing. 

"♫Owl in a cage, you show your age, your sweetness has run foul♫"

"♫Without a change, you're lost, exhausted, by your time on stage♫"

"♫ Then you walked into my room, and like sparks in the dark, life was suddenly thrilling and new♫"

"♫What between you and I, just a comfortable lie, I'm the fool who believes when you look in my eyes ♫"

Stolas grabs a book and turns to a page talking about Asmodean Crystals. Stolas snaps the book close and throws it onto his bed as he makes his way to the balcony. 

"♫Prince, all alone, upon your throne, your power is so frail, you raise your voice, you have no choice, Inside your gilded jail ♫"

Stolas leans on the balcony as footsteps near him.

" The fuck are you doing?" Stolas frowns as Stella makes herself known. 

" Reflecting." 

" Well, stop! It's annoying to hear you screeching your silly woes all the time!" Stella complained. 

On a normal day. Stolas would ignore Stella and do what she says to an extent but today was not a normal day. 

" Why are you still here? You leave with Via on weekends, but then you stay around the house despite everything." Stella smirks as she slowly approaches Stolas. 

" I like tormenting you. I want to keep reminding you of what you did." 

Stolas gives Stella a disgusted look. " I know what I did. I would feel bad if I hurt you, but we both know I didn't do that. You and I were arranged for one reason; to birth a precautionary heir to the Goetia family, nothing more," Stolas reminds Stella. 

" I tried so many years to make it comfortable for us; to have this family, but it was never enough. The only reason I have endured your insults and cruelty was for that girl to have a normal life," Stolas explained, referring to his daughter, Octavia. 

Stolas puts his foot down. "I cannot do this anymore. I want you out. Now..." 

Stella clenched her fists. Did she just hear Stola's correctly? " What do you mean, out?" Stella questioned angrily. 

Stolas doesn't care and glares Stella down. " I mean out! Out of this palace! Out of my life! We are getting the divorce!" Stolas declared. 

Stella glares at Stolas. " How dare you?!" Stella aggressively pokes Stolas as she approaches him, forcing him to back away to make space but Stella isn't going to let him.

" What do you think the rest of the Goetia family will think?" Stella goes to backhand Stolas to remind him of his place. " Andrealphus-!" 

Stolas catches Stella's hand, stopping it before it can hit his face. " I don't care what your arrogant brother thinks! And the only thing the Goetia family wanted from our marriage is turning 21 soon, so, it's over! I'm DONE!" 

Stella growls as she pulls her hand away, aggressively. " Fine. I have no desire to stay in the place of a traitorous embarrassment. You have fallen from what little grace you had, and I know you'll pay for it," Stella promised with a grin. 

Once Stella is out of sight, Stolas collapses onto the balcony. Stolas looks up at the sky and can't help but be wary of Stella's words. 

Stolas looks at the sky with narrowed eyes. During the Harvest Moon, there was a hired assassin. Stolas didn't think much as his priority was protecting his daughter. Afterward, Stolas recalls (Y/N)'s findings about the assassin and how he had a blessed rifle. Stolas was certain that he was the target and that only one person had the motive to kill him, Stella. 

However, Stolas can't confirm this without proof. Stolas brings up his phone and scrolls to (Y/N)'s contact. If Stolas is to find out the truth, he'll need some help.
