"Her name is Aniyah. Her dad is a trader and her mom is a voodoo man. She's 23, graduated from a high class university in Tanzania, and she wants 'your man' for all the right reasons." Agent Ross points out, showing all her credentials on a projected screen. I mainly focus on her brown eyes in the picture.

"Why aren't her eyes purple?" We was chilling in the meeting room, Challa and Nakia and Queen Mother, Shuri, some elders, and me of course. Erik was doing God knows what for our one year anniversary. (Six years actually, since that kiss.)

"Her dad is a voodoo man, let's not forget that. When she was around fifteen her dad got into some bad business and drug dealers from the South hunted him down, and took his daughter, who was staying in Uganda at the time. They had her up for ransom, which her dad refused to meet knowing that he would get her back safely. She was kept in the dark for two weeks, so when her dad found her she was blinded by seeing the sunlight instantaneously.

Her dad looked for a solution, and he got one. He enchanted her with a spell that not only gave her eyesight, but made her see everything in some kind of purple haze. As a result, she was lusted over by many, but only cared for those who she saw completely clearly."

"So, if she wanted someone, and he looked completely clear to her-"

"Those are the ones she would track down endlessly, until she got what she wanted."

Dick.

"So I'm guessing she's seeing E like that?" Agent Ross nods at one of the elders statements.

"Exactly." Queen Mother is silent, probably looking for a solution.

"So let's say one keeps her in the dark again, for a voodoo spell can not last that long, what will happen to her eyes?"

"It may... recalibrate who her affection is leaning towards." Shuri grins.

"Which is perfect. I had recently made these sunglasses that can be tinted all the way down. How long would she have to wear them though?"

"Ten minutes would be good enough."

"I think I have an idea." I smirk evilly, making a mental note to go to Shuri's lab after this.

"I don't like it when you smile like that." Erik frowns, and I raise an eyebrow.

"Look. I have to do this. Then we can have our anniversary dinner and laugh and do normal couple shit."

"We can never possibly be a 'normal couple.'" He smirks at me.

Is it hot in here or is it just me?

"How you still have that effect on me after all this time will forever be a mystery." He shrugs.

"As long as you rocking with me forever, I don't mind."

"Don't talk about forever until I get rid of that Anya bitch."

"Aniyah," he corrects me. I do not appreciate that, "and why are you so pressed anyways? She's just being driven by lust."

"And that lust is being directed towards MY MAN. I've been in a coma before, they real comfy. I can get into one again-" he shuts me up by kissing me. Hard. Like I literally stumbled backwards.

What did I do right to deserve this man.

"Well you gone be missing shit like that if you do," I just take a deep breath. He laughs.

"That's what I thought."

"Don't play me. If I can abstain from dicktation for like, three months, nigga your lips ain't shit."

"Mhm." He rolls his eyes. "So whats the plan?"

"Oh, nothing. youjusthavetopretendlikeyoufinnafuckAnya."

"Aniyah. And what did you say?"

"doitlooklikeiwasleftoffbadandboujee?"

"Quit playing," he whines. I smirk. "You gotta pretend you finna fuck her."

"NOOOOPE."

"Baby-"

"She'll start kissing on me! That girl is a beast!"

"You can pretend it's me! Y'all finna be in the dark and shit, all you gotta do is keep her there for ten minutes, tops."

"I can't pretend! Maybe if she puts a plastic bag over her head-"

"Baby. Just do it. For me."

"And what am I getting in return?"

"Being with me is a present enough." I smirk, but then walk to him and tiptoe to whisper into his ear.

All he can say is "Shit."

"Mhmmm. Go on! Start working!" As usual, he grabs on my ass and slaps it before I walk out the room.

I think I just awoke the beast.

"So! Tell me," Nakia helps me with setting up the tables, "it's been a year now, any mentions of that finger?"

My eyes widen.

"This world already has one Pete and Ariana," she looks confused, but I still continue, "and we ain't gonna be it."

"Sure about that?"

"To be honest, proposals scare the shit out of me. The fact that if he got down on one knee, I know I would say yes, and it's like... some kind of power... some restraint. I hate it. But I love him."

"Basically, it's the throne. Sitting up there can be a scary thing, which is why I turned down T'Challa the first time. I want to be able to travel! I want to help people, and I don't want to do it just sitting down,"

"But if you love him, then it's a sacrifice you should be willing to take."

"Ain't no sacrifice," I chuckle, "I own his ass. He treats me like a queen already, and if he knew that was gonna happen to me he would have told me." I place the last napkin on the table, then stand, to help Nakia up.

"Now let's go see if he's willing to, you know. I don't want to say it." She nods, and we leave for the castle ASAP.

Meanwhile...

Aniyah was once again on her stalker shit, walking through the levels below the castle area, because she heard that Erik was going to be there.
She had dressed in the tightest things imaginable, which of course, received some frowns from the older women, but she didn't care.

She knew Tazi was not at the castle, and she knew that Now was her time to pounce.

She had prepared the infamous 'punch' concoction that almost got Erik to give her that D appointment the first time.

And this time, it was foolproof. There was no T to snap him out of it, no guards to stop her.

And if things went as planned, Erik wouldn't be able to stop her either.
