It was late when Valentina returned to her quarters. She was so tired it took her a moment to see all her lovers waiting for her and she jumps when she finally notices them, a bit startled by the four pairs of eyes intensely staring at her, "Jesus fuck!" she grabs her chest.
"Where've you been?" Asmodeus is the first one to speak.
"It's late and we've been waiting for you," Luka follows with arms crossed.
"What the fuck is this? An intervention? I was with Rya and her friend, Meg, in the fifth circle," Valentina replies with slight annoyance, especially after the interaction with Asmodeus earlier that day.
"In the fifth circle? You sure Sasha wasn't—" Asmodeus's words are cut off by sharp jab to his ribs.
"What he's trying to say is that we were just worried about you—" Luka begins to say, but he's cut off by a loud groan coming out of Valentina's mouth.
"Oh please!" She scoffs, "I meet a guy who's quite literally the spawn of Satan and now you're 'worried about me'?" Valentina scoffs, using air quotes, "And what the fuck are Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum here for? You guys got any bullshit to add or are you just gonna fuckin' stand there like some fuckin' dumbasses?"
Jasper and Emmett stumble over their words, the taller male putting his hands up in surrender while Jasper feels the intensity in the room, feeling the anger and distrust that was coming off of Valentina was strong. Jasper takes a step towards Valentina, trying to ease the situation, "Why don't we just wait 'til mornin' to have this conversation? Everyone's a little on edge—"
Asmodeus cuts him off with a glare, "No, we're having this conversation now, since she wanted to run off like a child earlier today."
It takes everything for Emmett not to facepalm at the prince's words and watches worriedly as his mate's eyes flash to red and an incredulous laugh escapes her throat, "I'm acting like a child? You're the one throwing a fuckin' tantrum over a man I just met! If you can't see the immaturity in trying to make me a hypocrite, then my God, you're the most childish of them all," She spits the words out, twitching in anger.
"I have been here far longer than you have, I have seen the things he's done—" He begins to speak, but she's quick to cut him off.
"What the fuck does that matter to me, Asmodeus?! He is who he is! I refuse to stoop down to everyone's level and shame the guy because he can't control his temper," Valentina glares at him with arms crossed.
"Yo, why you ridin' so hard for someone you just met?" Luka's eyebrows furrow in irritable confusion.
Valentina's eyes widen slightly at his words because Luka's never been the jealous type, "It's not like that, it's the fucking principle! If I go around condemning everyone who's a child of the princes with nuclear anger issues, I'd be a fucking hypocrite! Like, Jesus Christ! Do you guys hear yourselves?! Y'all know damn well that is not in my character," Valentina just couldn't understand what had gotten into them. All this over Sasha? There had to have been another reason and then, it finally clicks, and she can't help the loud cackle the falls from her lips.
"What are you laughing about?" Asmodeus's jaw ticks in annoyance.
"This isn't even about me for real, you're jealous," Valentina covers her mouth, trying to stop the string of giggles coming out of her mouth. "You know how she feels about him. And the moment you saw me being defensive about him, you started coming to your own conclusions and now, you're triggered," She says and Asmodeus scoffs at her words. She begins to walk towards the bathroom, but stops in front of him, "News flash, she's his mate and I just think he's misunderstood, there's a fucking difference," Valentina pats his face and she can just feel the anger rolling off of him.
