Diabolik Lovers: A House Full of Them

An Unbelievable Shock

~~~~Third Person's POV~~~~

Cordelia sits on a couch on a forum overlooking the entry hall while Richter sits on a chair and they conversed with each other, catching up on everything from the time she wasn't around. Piper had finally stopped fighting back with Cordelia, making her come to the conclusion that Piper had accepted her fate.

The fact that Piper had stopped fighting back made Cordelia's already high ego, skyrocket. She finally had enough power that she was able to make the girl stop from fighting back and refusing to submit with her stubborn personality. 

"I heard that our uncle had a visitor." Reiji comments, making Richter and Cordelia look down on him in the foyer. "I never thought that it would be you." He insults.

"It's been so long, Reiji. If you only weren't so tiff, you would look and be just like Karl when I first met him." Cordelia mentions with a smirk.

"Do not speak of my father's name." Reiji requests as he pushes his glasses up the bridge of his nose. "I find it very offensive for someone to say that I am just like him, when I'm not." He adds then Cordelia sighs.

"Why do you have to be so far away?" Cordelia asks him then she gestures him towards her. "Come closer." She requests then Reiji appears on the forum.

"It is very obvious that scheming comes naturally from you." Reiji points out.

"Don't you know anything?" Cordelia asks him. "I want to stay vibrant as long as I live. I will tell you what I hate the most." She mentions as she sets her wine glass down. "Boredom. Boredom is the most painful thing us immortals have to deal with." She reveals as she stands up. "Don't you agree?" She asks as she walks over to them.

"You have a point there. Boredom doesn't suit you. Death most likely does." Reiji agrees then she giggles.

"I'll take that as a compliment. It feels good to talk face-to-face again." She mentions with a sigh. "Are you being defensive?" She asks him with a smirk. "In all respect, you're exactly like Beatrix. You hide how you feel. She ultimately had a pathetic and painful end." Cordelia mentions, causing Reiji to clench his fist and scoff. "Did I just touch a nerve?" Cordelia asks as she giggles. "Beatrix never seemed to love you as much as she loved Shu, the eldest son. So I assumed you wouldn't mind if I went ahead and killed her." She mentions then Reiji shakes his head.

"I see. So this is how you turned my father and uncle, one against another." Reiji comments.

"Are you saying that I am the one who broke their relationship?" Cordelia asks him. "It wasn't my fault, they fought over me just because they both loved me." She defends.

"Their bond would've never been that strong if it could be deteriorated by a woman, such as you." Reiji also suggests.

"You're very observant for a son of Beatrix." She comments as she wraps an arm around his neck. "I like you even more now." She tells him then she pulls Reiji closer. "Your eyes look just like Karl's. I'll let you in on a few secrets, for the respect of your eyes." She compliments as she takes off his glasses. "I came back to life to take my revenge on Karl." She reveals with a whisper in his ear.

"For him not loving you?" Reiji asks then she giggles.

"It appears you don't know the relationship between men and women have, yet. My desire to kill him is the greatest proof of my love." She tells him.

"In other words, you want to give him your love by murdering him? Whether he wants it or not?" Reiji questions then Cordelia glares at him.

"You're very fond of speaking out of turn." She comments then she smirks. "I'll keep that mouth of yours quiet." She whispers.
