"What do you mean we will have to go for a week!? "

Sue couldn't hold back his annoyance about this. His look was the same, calm and orange eyes fixed on Priscilla, yet his voice did change. How could she take him away for so long!? Who would take care of Dorothy- Nobody else was as good as him. She had to be with him by her side or else everything would change. Once she saw Edward and thankfully he had the power to make her forget it but now.... If a demon will replace him and tell her the truth about everything? No. . He had to do something.

"If you don't understand it I can repeat myself, dear"

"The thing you don't understand is that a lot of things can happen this one week I will be away with you. Dorothy might be in danger "He breathed out with no use, the princess gave her order and she wouldn't change it now. After a minute of awkward silence she stood up and by giving the rights for everyone else to leave she started walking out of the dining room. Sue was almost glaring at his own food and Ai didn't lose the opportunity to leave the place and go back to her room and drown in her thoughts, leaving Edward, Desirè and the demon of sloth, Vacal, behind.

He and Desirè were..a unique duo. The prince was almost all the time bored to do anything and she on the other hand was willing to kill for him to do something with her, go out or just spend some time together.

"He's sleeping again... "She would soon hiss. Her white eyes fixed on the sleeping figure of the light brown-haired man. He had lean on the table, with his jacket on top of his shoulders, using it as a blanket and having placed his head on his hands to be able to sleep 'properly'.

"Yeah, last night he was too tired from the hang out" Edward would speak with a soft yawn following and a stretching. Her eyes slowly turned green but kept her patience.

"You're kidding me right...? Vacal hates hang outs...."

"Don't tell that to me, he was the one drinking all night ~" He made it even worse and chuckled while fixing his blonde messy hair. Sue on the other hand was thinking of what to do so he could be sure Dorothy would be safe. He kept his casual smirk on his face and soon he looked up at the duo's conversation and nodded. Did he agree with Desiré or Edward? Who knew. So Desiré assumed he was by Edwards' side. With a hard kick under the table on Vacals' leg she caused him to gasp and obviously wake up

"WERE YOU CHEATING ON ME?! " She yelled, her piercing voice was more than enough for someone to wake up without the kick, to be honest but the prince of sloth had gotten used to this voice.

"Yes.... In my sleep.. " His deep voice was heard while Edward was trying to hold his laughter and Sue couldn't just stay emotionless this time. A slight smile and a chuckle would escape his lips.

"He wasn't dreaming about you? How could he " The teen breathes out, making the fire inside Desiré to burn more.

"I'm too tired for this right now...." Vacal would only hiss and stand up with the demoness following behind. "Don't follow me -"

"Why!?" 

"I want silence for once..." Sue and Edward could only laugh at their argument because they knew she would always fight for no reason. Vacal wouldn't cheat on her and she was all day and night having doubts.

"We have to go~"Sue interrupted them and left the last chuckle to escape his lips before he and Edward leave the room.   

"See you around, little one" Edward murmured and waved at him as if they were old friends which made Sue stare for a second. He didn't have too many... friends, let's just say. "Of course ....? "The shorter one would reply and finally with quick steps , he would disappeared into the shadows.

Sue would return soon after at home, Dorothy was still sleeping and he would only stand there-like a creep he was- to stare at her. He didn't want to leave her alone, but at the same time he didn't want any demon around her who could randomly tell her everything he tried so hard to hide. His hand reached down at her only to brush her hair away from her face and sighed.

" One day I'll tell you everything. But not today.. " He breathed out and pulled away before he start walking towards the door. He had to take and read some letters Priscilla send about the case she needed his help and even if he was already nervous about the whole thing, he had to follow her order this time.

Edward on the other hand, was left alone to wander around. Ai would probably not want to see him at the moment and he knew it somehow. With a soft stretch of his back, he noticed while walking through the small bridge, that lead to the village, a figure. He obviously approached only to see a red-haired woman on the edge of the bridge, leaning against the wooden bar and looking down to the red and yellow of the lava river that made some flames dance under their feet.

"Is this an angel~?" The blond man whispered to himself, stunned by her looks. Her perfect curvy body shape, her scarlet hair and bright green eyes...this dead pale skin... She was so beautiful. The girl, with a brush of her curly hair, turned around to give him a glare.

"Is this supposed to be a compliment? Else I will rip your eyes out" She hissed, making him widen his eyes, from the front she was way better, he would think but damn, her words were like music to his ears

"A- A compliment! I'm new here ~" He lied. Every time he would either do something stupid to open up conversations or just charm them with his words. This time the girl didn't seem to be just like the others. She had something different.

" Aw, that's not a compliment here but... I'll take it as one just for you.." The woman smiled brightly at him and fixed her eyes onto his golden ones.

"Welcome to Hell~"
