Chapter 15

Hwei-ru and her army stood at the gates of her nephew's house. "Wang Hongmei! If you want to live, come out and surrender my daughter to me!"

An old man woke up annoyed by someone screeching early in the morning. He was one of the caretakers of Wang Hongmei's house and he clearly said if anyone comes here that we don't know, shoo them away.

Well, he wanted to shoo them away for ruining his sleep! He slowly got up from his bed and searched for a specific lever. He found it on his right and pushed it down. Arrows appeared right on the gates, waiting to be shot. The old man then pulled another one and all the arrows fired.

"Quick! Defend yourself!" Hwei-ru shouted and raised her shield up. The arrows deflected and nobody got injured, thankfully. "Squad one! Prepare your arrows!"

Squad one knocked their arrows and waited for their empress's signal. "Fire!" the arrows towards the house and as soon as it hit it, the arrow would burst, causing disruption and shaking the house. The old man groaned. "These people are seriously asking for death!"

His temper was gone, and he pulled down a lever that was meant for emergencies. Fiery hot bolls shot through the sky and Hwei-ru narrowed her eyes, seeing something glowy coming towards them. When they finally were near them, her eyes widened and she yelled. "Hide!"

Everyone ran to find shelter, but some didn't. Some of them prayed, while others gladly accepted death. Everyone closed their eyes, waiting for the impact, but it didn't come. Hwei-ru opened one of her eyes and saw a force field around them. Eh?

"What the hell were you thinking, maa? Killing yourself already?'' The same sarcastic voice made tears form in her eyes. She turned and saw her daughter standing with her arms folded. Hwei-ru couldn't control herself and tightly hugged her.

"Where have you been?! I was so worried about you! Did you kill your cousin?!"

"Ah! Stop touching me!"

"So you'd let your girlfriend touch you but not me, huh?"

"Yes."

"Come here, you little shit!" she laughed and hugged her daughter. "What happened to you? How are you free?"

"Eh. long story. But how about we go back to where I'm staying right now and then we can talk?"

"Okay."

Anastasia told everything to her mother, and she was confused, yet surprised, at the same time. Her nephew was being controlled by his fiancee. Her future daughter-in-law is a rare fairy, and she met her parents already, and they were friends with a demon? Eh? Her head was hurting while trying to process everything.

They gave Wang Hongmei a proper funeral; they tortured Diana a lot, and Avery left for home by themselves and the others promised they'll come back after a few days.

Scarlett's parents went back to where they were, but Anastasia didn't want them to. But they said Anastasia and Cassandra had done a lot for them and they just wanted to go back home. They were being too stubborn, so Anastasia accepted it. The rest decided to go to their huge ass castle.

Scarlett's jaw dropped seeing their castle. It was so fucking beautiful and huge! Like wow, her girlfriend was rich as fuck! Why did she feel like one of her millions of sugar babies lmao?

Scarlett was going to be in her girlfriend's room because why not? And they were here because apparently she got three nieces or nephews. Also Scarlett wanted to meet her girlfriend's little siblings. Who might these brats be like?

The twins have been sleeping since they came here when it was eleven something at night. The servants were surprised to see a short girl accompanying them.

"Your highness, may I know who this girl is?"

"Oh, it's my girlfriend Scarlett." Anastasia smiled and hugged her by the waist.

The servants lit up with joy. "Oh my god! It's been years since you got a girlfriend! Congratulations your highness!"

"She's very pretty!"

"They look so sweet together!"

After that, Anastasia dragged Scarlett to her room. She opened the door and turned on the lights. Scarlett was surprised to see a lot of plants and science tools lying around. There were posters of her idols on the wall.

"Wow, your room is so… wow. I didn't know you had posters in your room." Scarlett's eyes stopped at one. "You got Winter's poster?! Is she your bias!?"

"Uh yes."

"Oh my god! My bias is Winter too! She's so pretty and cool and a total living meme!"

"Yeah. Anyway, do you want one of my clothes? My oversized shirts might fit you like a dress guess."

"Hmm."

"You can take a bath here. I'll go take a bath in the guest room."

"Hey don't go~!"

"Why?"

"We can take a bath together instead, right?"

Anastasia frowned. "Are you stupid? I'm a total giant and you're like a toddler and you're saying that we should shower together? You'll get claustrophobic and I can't risk that. Take one of my shirts, I don't care!"

She closed the door and Scarlett slapped her forehead then mumbled. "This idiot can never take any hints can she?"

After taking a shower scarlet found a very cute shirt of her girlfriend's that read: I'm a big sister now!

"Aw!! This is so cute!" She put it back where she found it and took another shirt. It was a plain and pure white shirt which went below her knees. She was right, this is a dress for her.

She quickly wore it and sat on the bed waiting. After five minutes her girlfriend came inside while rubbing her hair dry. "Aww! You look so cute in my shirt! It looks like a dress, I was right!"

"Thank I'm wearing no underwear ;)."

"Well, underwear can get annoying sometimes. Come on, let's sleep, I'm tired."

Scarlett looked like she might bash her head against the wall soon. What was the point of having your room in the deepest and darkest corner of your fucking mansion if you don't want to do something dirty?!

*flips table aggressively*

"Umm, why do you have your room so far from the other rooms?"

"It's because my family can be annoying as fuck and I like to be alone by myself."

"Oh k."

Stupid! Never taking any hints!
