IraIre and I are walking along the cobblestones pathway of the palace, we just went from our short "visit" to Hell.
She and Bedivere is right, Raphael is innocent and also a victim.
But I am not that convinced yet that his loyalty runs deeper than his lust, if lust reigns over the system of any living creature, all rationality will be out of the window.
That's what I hate the most.
"Would you forgive him, soon? I know you still love him." Ire said, surprisingly, she is siding with him.
I wonder what happened while I was gone.
I shrugged nonchalantly "I hardly trust anyone but you and myself. I found my solace behind the walls I built up, Ire. All through those years I rely to no one." I stated as I lift my bloody hand and stare at the caked blood around it.
"Then what could possibly be your plan? There's an alliance going on isn't?"
The alliance?
I look at her and grinned hollowly "You're such a genius, Ire."
She tilt her head to the side slightly, sporting a confused face "What do you mean?"
I smirked coldly at her, then after a few seconds, she grinned back at me widely, catching on what's the meaning behind my smirk.
---The next day, I eat along with my guests and kids, including some of the vampire Lords during breakfast.
I know that Raphael cooked all of the food here, he is getting good, perhaps he is trying to show he is worthy huh?
We'll see about that.
I put my glass down and lean back on my chair, I cleared my throat "Archangel Raphael, I want to have a minute with you." I said as I get up from my seat.
He's following me quietly while I walk ahead of him, good thing he is keeping a distance, I just hope he is prepared to what I'm going to reveal to him.

I just hope they reconcile already, I want them to see happy and peaceful just like before.
"So the Queen would really marry an archangel?" We both turned to look at lady Karielle Lucandis, the Lord of Paris.
Her lavander eyes regarded the angels with a hint of disgust or distrust, either of the two. According to Bedivere, she is a telekinetic, one of the highest and powerful vampiric abilities.
Now that's why everybody here respects her, such a fearsome woman.
Uncle Gabriel nodded, with a pride in his eyes "Yes, she is going to marry my twin, any problem with that?" He said, well, he actually taunted her.
Karielle waved her hand in a dismissal manner "Yeah sure whatever, it's not like a bird like your kind would reign over the supreme race of vampires isn't Caules?"
Caules Verdandi, Lord of Venice just shrugged and resume eating his steak, but his smirk is enough to give us his answer.
Nuriel retorted "Angels aren't the type to be greedy when it comes to power."
Then a creepy giggle came from the other part of the table "Eh~ really? Then how about Eremiel trying to fuck things up in Heaven?" Anastasia Romani, Lord of Moscow Russia, said.
To be honest, she is quite creepy and shady, I don't get why she's invited here.
Nuriel's stopping himself from retaliating because I am holding onto his wrist to stop him.
Uncle Gabriel is the one who's going to retort but he stopped when mom and uncle Raph came back.
Mom's sporting a bright smile while uncle Raph... How can I say this, he is forcing a smile. I can see it from his eyes, I wonder what happened.
Mom take uncle Raph's hand and grinned "We reconciled so we decided to get married sooner."
---A/N: Pretty short because I'm quite busy but I would introduce all of the vampire Lords after my exam ;)
