Hey

The room was in dead silence.

"Sire, we are happy to have you back," one of the members said as everyone bowed their heads not wanting to look at the chilly blue eyes staring at them.

"Is that so? Why did I hear something different?" Adrian said as he took his seat at the head of the table.

Everyone back was covered in sweat. They didn't dare know what he was thinking. If he found out that they tried to overpower when he was down. They knew they were done.

"I kept you in those positions. Don't test my patience. I can always take it away from you too" he said as he scanned everyone's face's with his cold eyes.

Mu Yuchen got up immediately. "Sire I never had a hand in what these insolents tried to do. I have been silent waiting for you to come back"

Adrian knew if there was one person he could trust with the loyalty that would be Mu Yuchen. He had been working for him since as long as he remembered since he started. He nodded at him as he took his place towards his right.

The others couldn't retort knowing what kind of person the Mu guy was. Even when they suggested him to take over next. He hasn't moved his eyes as he was set on Adrian returning. Now they knew, why nobody why no one wanted to make themselves Adrian's enemy because he wasn't human.

Before they knew it, a few people entered the room they all looked at Adrian in horror. They didn't dare think what would happen to them now. Mu Yuchen didn't bat his eyelids just like when he didn't say anything about overpowering Adrian.

Mu Yuchen looked at him worriedly. He had been like a father figure to Adrian even though they both had completely different identities." Adrian, I heard what happened to Elena" he said as he sighed in sadness.

That child was so beautiful inside and out. He felt like he aged 10 years just by looking at Adrian in pain and the news of her death.

"I know you are still in pain but I came here to tell you about something else," Mu Yuchen said as he patted Adrian's back.

Adrian looked at him with a frown. His coming all over from a different continent to tell him something was definitely about something.

"There is someone collecting information about us. They have been doing it for a year and a half now. They have been discreet but this is very abnormal as someone hacked into our network recently asking about you" he said with a serious tone.

Usually, this was pretty normal but no one was ever strong enough to go past their network which was created by Elena herself. This got him to thinking. Mu Yuchen got up knowing his work is done.

"If I didn't know any better I would have said Elena was the playing games with the system" he grumbled as he turned and left.

Adrian and Alexei looked towards the Mu Yuchen left in surprise. He looked at the document in front of him. They couldn't trace back any sort of location but the intent was clear. They were trying to communicate something.

Their network had lots of important things but none of the information went out and they only searched for Adrian. They didn't understand the purpose but it didn't feel like anything harmful so he was in thoughts.

Alexei didn't have the same thought though he was very protective of his people after experiencing his young miss and lovers death. He wanted to be safe than sorry.

"Master, don't you think its better if we find the threat and eliminate it as soon as possible?"he asked seriously.

Of course he wanted whoever it is to die immediately so that they cant pose them any threat. But if he only knew how he much he would regret these words in future.

"Lets wait for them to come out shadows. Keep searching," he said as he got up replaying Mu Yuchen's words in his head. He knew he should accept his sister's demise but he was willing to dream a little more longer because there his sister is alive right?

Alexei was disappointed by the order but this time he wasn't gonna back off he will make sure to find whoever it is and he is gonna drag them back to light.

Right at that moment in Moscow Airport

A girl with blonde hair has landed in the country. She slowly stretched her body and got down the plane. Ah to take her country's fresh air. She smiled wide though there was some pain in her eyes.

She came out of the terminal with her luggage. She looked around as she peeked in her phone again to see if she read the text right.

Then her eyes lit up when she saw a young man with brown hair standing and holding boarding saying "Elle". She smiled and went towards him.

"Hey, its been a while," she said as her brown eyes twinkled.
