Chapter 576 - Family Time Part 1

Andel will not stop until he learned the origin of these people. They scanned the faces of those rogues that attack them through his database. They didn't find any identification so it's the only thing that he could do. Besides, those people leave a scar on his daughter's mind and also to his wife. His wife is sleeping with Elizabeth and here he is spending his time collating those shits.

The faces are scanning and he's waiting until it all completed. A knock on the door makes him turn his swivel chair. Ellen is with Lizzi.

"Lizzi want to be with you. I'll just prepare midnight snacks." Ellen said softly.

"Okay." Andel nodded and Lizzi run to him and he pulled her up from the floor and put her on his lap. Ellen left and close the door.

"What is that Daddy?" She asked pointing the faces that were scanned.

"Those are bad guys." He answered.

"You are looking for them?"

"Yup. I need to make sure that I'll find them, so mommy won't worry too much."

"I saw my big bro and big sis doing the same."

"Really?" He asked.

"Yup." She nodded.

"When?"

"Just a while ago. They said that those bad guys should pay."

Andel checked the library of the twins and they are indeed there doing some database. He called them through his computer and their faces appeared.

"What did you get?" He asked them.

"Well, these people are from the military of America," Aria answered. "It wasn't the CIA or FBI."

"Hmm, then I should contact America with regards to this?" Andel said.

"I think this is just a cover-up," Asher added. "Why would a military of America come all the way here just to target you and Alanis?"

As Andel looked through it, Asher is right. He had the same information from the twins. Andel re-scanned with the top criminals in American and those faces appeared.

"They are one of the top syndicates in America and I think someone hired them to maybe—divert the attention or as a threat," Aria said with a puzzle left.

Andel heard from Fin that the Eagle Empire is rising and led by an unknown person. They were sure that it was from the Eagle Empire or De la Fontaine. Maybe another blood of the Eagle Empire is alive, and the Christian should be the successor, so they are pushing Christian to take that risk and to side with them.

"There will be more threat, daddy?" Lizzi asked.

"Yes, love. So, we need to be cautious and always listen to mommy and your big brothers and big sister. Okay, love?"

"Yes, daddy." She leaned her head to him and close her eyes.

Demi sat up and searched around her room. Christian is nowhere to be found. She slipped off from the bed and put her robe on then she went out and checked the cameras on where he is located. She found him and her dad in the bar talking. She just kept her distance and listened to them.

"Bea's vision is accurate," Dmitri said. "You need to be ready for possible things. He will come to you."

"I don't understand…"

"Your grandfather had a bastard son. Grisha is a very smart man and he wouldn't die without a reserved person to lead the Empire. I just realize this after Bea's vision. He was hidden far away, and he's been leading it after we turned down the Eagle Empire. He's your blood and you might turn back from us."

"Sir, that's impossible. You are my family. You take me in. Besides, from what my family did to yours, I think it's just fair." He said.

"We didn't kill them," Dmitri told. "We make them kill their selves. Death is the easiest escape from the torture of life. They took their own life by drinking the poison." Dmitri drank more of it. "The woman that killed Andromeda's first baby, I let someone killed her because Andromeda doesn't care about it anymore. She's occupied with love for her daughter, Zendaya. I don't blame her not to be vicious. There's a baby that she should care most than anything."

Seeing her father saying those words and he looked hurt makes her heart clenches. And Christian had that pity in his eyes, and she wanted to know if he hesitates and wanted to kill them all. She already gave everything to him. Her body, her love, her heart, and her soul.

"I already vowed to you and Demi. I won't change a thing." Christian said and sipped on his whiskey.

"Keep Demi away from any danger," Dmitri said. "Please,"

"I will."

Demi went back to her room, and she lay down on the bed waiting for Christian. Demi stared at the photo frame that Christian set up. It's her smiling beautifully without noticing it. It must be a stollen one that Sophia took. Christian also looked so happy and he hugged her from behind and they are laughing over something that he probably said.

She never saw herself so happy in every picture. It's the first time. The door open and Christian entered, and he smiled at her.

"Why are you still awake?" He asked and he toward the bathroom trying hard not to look drunk.

Then, he approached her and started stripping his clothes. He crawled over the bed and kissed her forehead.

"You still smell alcohol."

He laughed.

"I already brush my teeth and gargle some mouth wash."

Demi reached his face.

"Christian,"

"Yes, babe?" He kissed down her neck and then he unwrapped her robe to see her beautiful body.

"Do you love me?" She suddenly asked. He smiled at her.

"I do." He kissed her forehead.

"You won't betray me?" She reached his face with her right hand and he held it and kissed her palm.

"Why would I betray you? I am a loyal dog."

"You are not a dog." She sat up and she removed her robe. "Christian, I already give my everything to you. My heart, my soul, my firsts." She put her hand on his nape and rubbed it.

"Demetria, you don't have to worry about anything. I will protect you and your family. Even if the person that wants to hurt you is from my blood. Blood is indeed thicker than water. But I oath to you. I will never break it."

"I trust you."

"Thank you for trusting me." He kissed her lips.

Moira didn't get off from her solo a while ago when Ellen called so her husband needed to take over with it. She just let her daughter played with her brothers to the playroom and they were watching whatever cartoon it is. Now, they are sleeping in a tent.

She watched Alanis expertly rubbed those spots that she got crazy over. She had squirted many times from those new s.e.x toys that he bought for her. Well, she's forty-plus, and yet, they are still playing.
