CHAPTER XVI: Revenge

------------------------------------------------

"Dux Ducis! I have news from the United States!"

I was inside of my principals rooms, like a sort of a second office where different demons where brought here and helped me with some issues. 

Waiting the information excited, I motioned for my subordinate to resume his speech.  

"Thanks to our sources we knew between Kyan Hathaway and Andreas Chiffer was a first contact. The bound has been awaken. So, Willa's vision was true."

"Oh that makes things more interesting. Thank you Tymek, and for next time is Andrea Schiffer. She hates when people calls her in the wrong way."

Smirking mischievously, I played with a grape in my fingers, watching one of my informants bowing and dismissing himself. It made my day! When Willa told me about my little Andrea having a mate I was very excited since I could use it against her.

"It's interesting how things are turning out, right Lucius?"

My son appeared from behind the curtain of the balcony where he was moments before. Obviously he heard the sweetest news ever.

"Yeah, and it's funny how they think we're not planning anything."

"Maybe they are, son. And if they are, they're waiting for our first step. Which will be theirs, and it will lead them to their own destruction."

He laughed evilly and I smirked, looking towards our precious gold award, wrists and ankles chained to the wall. She was wearing a large T-shirt that covered her most interested parts, I loved to study her little face. Most of the days she was afraid, like a scared puppy. It made me lick my lips, trying to hide a grin.

"It's good to have a little Osklan between us. Although your answers are always true, no matter what, I still think you could betray us not giving me the real information."

"Fuck you! The day I will get out from here-"

"Will be the day you're dead. Still, if you managed to escape, where would you go? With the 'Awaken Demons'? Please don't make me laugh. If you're here alive, and virgin is because you're useful. The day we won't need you anymore you will regret to be alive."

Those who were like her didn't have to be virgins but we discovered that through rape, violent sex and a high amount of sexual activity they could lose their powers, so it was better if they remain untouched.

"The day someone kills you, I will be on first line to enjoy it."

"Watch your mouth darling, you don't want me to cut your tongue. Do you?"

Before she could turn her head, I catch a tear sliding down her face. Women, always crying. What weak creatures. When my beautiful Osklan cried, I really wanted to fuck the shit out of her. So innocent, so potential yet so fragile.

She was a Power 3 Rank B, an average demon if it wasn't for her category. Still she wasn't that powerful but was extremely useful the moment in which we needed some information. She was a sort of an 'Oracle'. 

You see, Oracles were people considered to provide wise counsel or precognition of the future, inspired by the gods. She had the power to control spirits, people, and look through their eyes. Even if they lived on the other side of the world, it didn't matter. The ancient Greeks asked their priestess the answers to their questions, receiving them from a supposed God. There wasn't any divinity, in fact they got the information as did Willa, and a funny thing was through the possession they made contact with visions.

"We did a good work with Andrea, father. I want to see in what kind of monster we have transformed her."

My eyes followed the movements of my son, walking around the room. Indeed, she was our masterpiece along with a restricted group who managed to escape. I didn't care about the others since they were easy to catch, but Andrea... she was our special gold claim. 

"Patience Lucius. We will wait for the perfect moment to make an appear on the map."

"I can't believe they're so stupid to not even realize our plan."

Crossing my arms on my chest I hummed, searching for an answer. When it came my beloved Stheno, we could expect anything from her. She was extremely intelligent, and her thirst for human blood held no boundaries. Still, I couldn't understand how she managed to live with that weak creatures when her place was with me, her creator, her father. I needed her by my side, to be my high and stronger soldier. Until then, I would fight for what was mine.

"That will be our trump card in this battle. But-"

"The day I get out from here, I will go to Andrea and ally with her. I want her to destroy every part of you! She's the one who deserves it the most!"

I looked at my son and sighed. I didn't know from where her courage came. Her black dirty hair was put into a braid to one of the sides of her neck, and her heterochromatic eyes shined with fear. One brown and the other blue, she was a strange but useful prize to keep with us.

"Make her shut up."

Then I heard the fist of my son making contact with her face, her skull hit the wall so hard she fell unconscious. From the impact the wall behind her broke and her head low with her blood falling on the cold marble ground.  

"As I was saying, a good plan take years to put into operation. You have to think about the 'what ifs' and make a second though for everything."

"Andrea probably can control her demons-"

"Don't worry, I've already taken care of that."

I sat down again on my leather chair, listening carefully to my son's hypothesis. But there was one thing catching my attention. I had plenty of time to think about what my masterpiece could do with the power I gave to her.

"What if she has the absolute power of all of her demons, and she can create a new ones from them?"

That was extremely interesting, separating my back from the armchair and slide my left hand above the right one. My elbows resting on the armrest. I have heard before about that, but I had my doubts if she was that powerful.

"See my Lucius? I'm so proud you're my son. I'm aware there's a chance it could happen."

He crossed his arms over his chest and sighed. Some kind of emotion crossed his eyes, but he hid it. He was good at hiding different types of emotions, so I waited to him to explain himself.

"And if it happens she won't be a first rank, but an A+ still... My my mind is not peaceful."

"What's bothering you?"

"If there's a chance to it to happen, I have the bad feeling she won't bean A+ but a Rank A+++, in that case we would have an extremely and serious problem, father."

A demon who was an A+++ was a extremely big and serious problem. When Andrea was home I thought it could happen but I never imagined a possible chance for her to live. If she transformed to that high rank, it would mean for her to lose her little human part she had and to fusion with her demons. Then she wouldn't have a mind, awareness or even thoughts. What would make her to keep moving would be her bloodlust, and the desire to destroy.

"Well then, we will try to think about a plan, where that choice will never exist."

"You really want to see her in a living hell."

I smirked deviously and entwine my hands. Yes, I wanted her to suffer and when she would be so destroyed internally to not even get up alone, I would be the hand to offer her a new future. By my side. She was a very rare creature since she endured the pain perfectly but with the result of her mind rotted in pain, making her to go into craziness. That would be my perfect moment to finally control her.

"Obviously, she will pay for what the council and my mate did to me. Now, Victor is not enough for my revenge. I want Andrea to suffer."
