.....A loud knocking on the door. Fenrir was in his normal clothing now instead of his regal gear.
All of us ran outside, the servants were in their night-wear.
"What's going on?!" Bard asked
Angela explained everything to us so we sprinted to the murder scene
Holy crap!
They took the body away but then came the question
"You say he was punished but what did he do to be punished so violently?" I asked
"He had six dogs. One more than the legal limit" Someone stated
"I see. So this was bound to happen eventually" Henry stated
"BOUND TO HAPPEN!? THAT'S ALL YOU CAN SAY WHEN ONE OF YOUR OWN SUBJECTS WERE MURDERED?! Some leader!" I yelled in anger.
"I am the leader and the rules are rules. Women like you are better seen and not heard. Now come, everyone head to your homes and retire for the night. In the morning we will deal with this in more detail after sleep." Henry stated.
We all got to the mansion but I just ran to my room and cried on the bed because never in my life...has anyone. ANYONE! EVER said that to me. Not even people in my own kingdom dare say it.
I cried myself to sleep but I was still kind of awake when I felt someone lie beside me.
"Don't listen to him my sweet kitty. He's beneath us. Yes, right now we are in his territory, in is area, but he is only a lord. You are a Crown Princess and Ciel and Earl. Both of you have titles higher than Henry. Just like I do" Fenrir explained so I slightly rolled over and locked eyesight with his emerald green eyes and I smiled so calmly.
"You always know what to say to cheer me up" I told him when I rolled onto my left side and faced him then we fell asleep snuggled next to each other.
The next day I woke up and got changed

"Good morning. Breakfast is served in the main dining hall" Angela told Fenrir and I once we were ready and he was helping me fix my hair into a high ponytail with my dragon lily broach securing my dark red bang to the side
We walked down and I saw Henry.
"Miss Amy can I ask something?" Henry asked me
"What?" I stated coldly
"If you are a lady with a high social status like you say, why do you not dress like it? Sounds to me like you do not care for your social standings and only care for your own interests. Probably why you will never be betrothed to anyone" Henry asked me.
"Just shut up Barimore! I dress the way I do because I fight for my people. I fight for my subjects and for the queen of England. I am her Guard Phoenix and also newsflash to the betrothal part, MY FIANCE IS RIGHT BESIDE ME! Fenrir Grey-Wolf is my fiance. Our parents chose it because of our close bond. So why don't you just admit your are intimidated by me and all of us. I mean when you think about it, me and Fenrir have a higher social title than you despite our young ages." I explained then after breakfast we went to the beach. I stayed on the shore with Ciel, Sebastian and Angela.
"I never expected you to snap at Barimore like that. What were you thinking?" Ciel asked me
"I was thinking of our job. Henry is never going to just WILLINGLY sell this place to the Queen for her resort so I recalled something I learnt as a young girl growing up in the royal court" I told him
"What would that be?" Sebastian asked and I faced the water as he said that to me
"If you are not given what you want, you must take it. We will claim Houndsworth for Her Majesty one way or the other and what I said about my title is true. No matter what people argue, royalty always trumps lords. You also trump it. He has a village and nothing else. You have a mansion and a successful company. Fenrir has a tribe and armies, me? I have seven kingdoms and every army at my beck and call. When I become Queen the alliance will be secure. Phantoms and Midfords will have the Mystical Protection forever. As I promised your father on the day they adopted me so to speak. They adopt me and guard me until I come of age and in exchange, after I ascend as Queen the entire family, including Lizzy's get the protection of the whole of the Mystic Isles. My protection" I explained when I turned my head to face Ciel again.
"Now you're talking like a royal" Ciel told me then we heard villagers.
"WE GOT HIM! WE GOT THE BAD DOG!" So we followed them. Sebastian was AWOL somewhere.
When we stopped following them, we saw a dog chained to a wall then four more were released to attack it.
Finny just lost it then with his strength, punched the attacking dogs away. Then all of us were chained
"MASTER PLEASE I BEG OF YOU! SPARE THEM JUST THIS ONCE! THEY DON'T DESERVE THE PUNISHMENT!" Angela begged to Henry
"I will. If this mutt can be made to see reason I will spare them. Tell your Queen this land will never be hers." Henry demanded. I clenched my metal fist then summoned my fire.
Black Flame Rage!
That broke my chains and then Henry got scared so I released everyone
"You forgot about me. YOU ARE THE REAL DEMON HOUND HENRY!" I yelled then Sebastian explained the evidence and Henry was arrested.
"You were a good dog" Finny stated as he cried over the dying dog.
Later on that night, Mey-Rin screamed and then we realized, Henry was dead. We returned to the stone wall and saw his body chained up. Covered in blood and bite marks then Angela collapsed
I can only imagine. I've dealt with this so it's easy for me.
"The demon hound must be real...and maybe he was upset for being blamed for Lord Henry's actions?" Mey-Rin asked when we returned to Henry's estate
"You might be right. But if so....how am I not sensing it? My father is a demon and a werewolf so he is a semi-demon hound in a way. I have his blood in me so why am I not sensing the demon hound here?" I asked
"Maybe it's faint. Your mother is an angel and you have her blood as well. So it could be messing up your demonic senses" Fenrir told me
"You might be right".
Eventually we realized the damn demon hound was actually real and he had a human form. Angela knew him and his name was Pluto. Now he's a phantom pet. Fenrir returned to the mystic isles and we returned to the estate. At. Last. The queen got her land and we solved the case.
