After taking a bath and blowing her hair, she prepared herself to go to Stella's resto. Good Night's Drink was a bar before but Stella expanded it a bit and changed the menu depending upon the season. It has now become a mini restaurant.
She already had a phone call from her butler yesterday and told him to wait for her outside the fortress. She wore a black jumpsuit paired with a Tom Ford white high heeled boots. She then wore a long champagne coat to protect herself from the cold. Wearing the red scarf she knitted back in the castle, with the Hermes bag on her shoulder, she went out of her room and locked it.
It's a good thing that Dario's friend who designed her room changed the door knob into a very complicated locker that requires face recognition or fingerprint. So her room is safe. And when she says 'safe', it is safe from her mother and sister.
When she came back from the castle, all her things were tailored and expensive. Not to be stingy, but it's her ex-husband's money and she treasures them. All things that were given to her by their divorce, she treasures them all. And knowing her mother and sister's eyes towards money, she knows she needs to be careful of losing her things.
"Ey, chapiadora." [gold digger]
She stopped and turned her head to Savannah who was raising her brows. She's sitting in the living room, legs crossed. She put down the cup of green tea she just sipped.
"Why the hell are you wearing a Chanel Jumpsuit? Are you even allowed to wear that?" There was a challenge in her voice. And with the smirk on her face, she knows she is going to say something unpleasant.
"Remember that you had those things, from head to toe, because you climbed to that Old fart's bed. And ew to that scarf."
She just stayed looking at her, listening to every word she spoke and every movement of her lips. If Savannah's face was annoying before, it's more annoying now. She blows a breath. She's used to this kind of insult. And she needs to backfire.
"What do you want, Savannah? Should I drop into a Chanel store and buy you the whole dress section? Do you want it custom-made?"
Savannah literally stood up shocked as she called their mom.
"Mamà! Luna is bullying me!"
Luna sighed as she saw her mother coming out from the kitchen. As expected. When her sister can't backfire, she would ask help from their mother.
"What did she do, Savannah?" Her mother was checking Savannah's body. All worried.
"She was bullying me because she had a Chanel jumpsuit and an unlimited black card."
So she learned about her black card already? That was a bit unexpected.
"Don't worry mi hija. It's okay since you're clean and our money didn't come from prostitution."
Her eyes literally went wide after hearing her mother say that. Her heart was pinched a bit that her mother is now even looking at her like a dirt. She was sent to that castle to save them...
She chuckled. What a good family... If only her father was here... her mother won't definitely say that. So this is their real color now that her father isn't around? And that no one can defend her?
"See, mamà? She's laughing at me!"
"Luna!" Her mother warned her, her voice is threatening.
She then looked at them, eyes were blank, not pretending anymore. She was done pretending to be innocent. This time, she wants to be real to them. She is not the naive Luna they have known back then.
"I worked hard to have Chanel clothes, mamà. I worked hard to have Rolls Royce Swept ail. It's all about working hard and being obedient." There was sarcasm in her voice.
"So Savannah,” She looked at her sister.
"work," she paused. "hard." She then walked towards the door and saw Dario waiting for her.
He was leaning on the car, face was serious. And she knows he heard the conversation.
"Milady, please oblige me to have a minute of free will." He bowed his head, lower than before, and it means he is really begging her.
With just the tone of his voice, she knows what he is going to do.
"My King won't be happy to hear this more than I do."
"No free will, Dario." She gets inside the car.
He was still standing there for a minute before he closed it, gritting his teeth.
He then went to the driver's seat and started the engine. She can see it. He was pissed and was about to do something with her family. But even though he can do as he wants, he still asked her permission. And as she said no, he obliged. Maybe this is one of the reasons why he is chosen as her butler.
"Give me some details about Andréz debt, Dario." She had a bad feeling since she came back.
When she has realized that her mother and sister are demons, she can't help but to think about her father's death. His father was in the master's room when he lost his life due to cardiac arrest-
"Señora Andrèz transferred you to my King, mílady, in exchange for ten Million Euro."
She stiffened, eyes were wide. Shocked, she doesn't remember her parents saying she was sold! They said they were indebted to the King!
"I don't know much about the details but Nevarro has them. I will get it for you, milady."
She gasped, covering her mouth in disbelief. It was like she was hit by a stone right into her heart. She was betrayed. So it was her mother's scheme! She planned all of it and sent her to the castle to get rid of her!
"And your sister is one of My King's concubines, mi reina. But she never showed up to him."
She had a bad feeling about this. The truth....
She will be facing the truth after living in the castle within a year. There is a purpose. There is a reason why she was sent there!
But... Is her father involved with this? There's no way. Her father is innocent! She is sure of that! But what is her mother's ulterior motive?
"Can I dig more, Dario?" She asked worried and nervous about the fact that she will be learning something from her father's death. She doesn't want to believe that her father just died like that if he is a demon too.
"You don't need to ask me that, mi reina. Oblige me to do anything."
"Can you check my father's autopsy result?"
"Your handsome butler is at service."
She bit her lip wanting to ask more. She was boiling with more questions. And she wanted to know!
"How do demons die?"
He hummed before speaking.
"Normally, we die after Two thousand years in the human calendar. Our life span lessens to one day if we touch a human that doesn’t 'feel' anything special towards us." He explained nonchalantly.
"You kill humans by devouring their souls from their neck. How about the demons killing another demon?" She asked nervously. She's nervous to hear the answer. She somewhat doesn't like to hear it but she wants to know too.
"They attack the heart."
She felt herself still on her seat unable to move any limbs of her body. She felt weak. She couldn't speak. She cannot process what she just heard.
"T-Then? Will it result in cardiac arrest in human society?"
"Yes, mí reina. Your father was killed by a demon."
Shivering, she covered her mouth to let out the tears she had been stopping. No way. There is no way her father died like that! He is a good man! Who would kill him? No. This is insane.
