"He is the son of Ethren Regulus Von Hyden with his mate Maeve Naevys Wintermere, born exactly 3000 years ago, so, he's technically lived consciously more than we did, but we are older than him in theory. However, the mating bond between Ethren and Maeve was kept a secret, and so was the fact that they had a son together and merged the houses, until 702 years ago, when the merge was made public, and so was the fact that they had two sons together. Davon, who's normally called Eric by those close to him, and his baby brother Isaac Philippe Angelus Wintermere Von Hyden, who's 1892."
"He attended the academy a millennial ago, as Ethren Von Hyden's heir, Eric L. Von Hyden, hiding who he truly was, since Maeve Wintermere had made public that she had a son called Davon Wintermere, who no one had seen yet. Ethren and Maeve are still the King and Queen of Wintermere Von Hyden house. Now, he is attending again, but as the Crowned Prince of the Wintermere Von Hyden, and with his little brother Royal Prince Isaac. So... he probably knows that it's you, especially after you slapped his face with your bare hand."
A sharp pain spread through my entire body, and guilty burned my soul, "Shit."
"Mmmhm, shit."
"Now all he said back then makes sense," I cried covered my face with my hands. "I can't face him now, fuck," I passed them in my hair. "How am I supposed to face him after all I made him go through?"
["We'll have to try, because we need him with us to go into Tartarus."
"I'm not taking him into Tartarus," I gasped horrified at the idea.
["Your fae is dormant, starlight, he's our mate, he's a fae, and he will be able to fill the void that's left in us for a bit. We'll need to be complete to find the other fragments of us in there!"]
"The Queen... I mean, my mom, didn't need her mate to get the fragment."
["No, mom didn't, but she was complete. We ain't. So, we need Davon."]
Fuck. "This is madness, Kitsune."
["Stop calling me that,"] she groaned.
"How do I call you then?" I snapped. "I can't call you Me."
["Call me Maela then. You're Asterin and I'm Maela, for now."]
The name sent chills down my spine, "Is that... our real name?"
Bianca nodded, "Asterin-Maela Deyanira C. Fae'nyx. What's the demon on?"
"The one I was raised as?" I blinked.
"Mmhm, that one. Can I know?"
I licked my lips, "Alethra Thalia, you can't know the last name, but it's the C."
"Alethra Thalia," she chanted. "It's a gorgeous name, I'll give Balthazar that."
Sigh, "I need to know the truth from his mouth. To know why they never told me anything, why they raised me like this. I need to go to hell."
["Well, you do indeed. Into Tartarus."]
"Yes, but this is more important, Maela. Their are the parents I know."
["I know that, but we are vulnerable until we get back together, starlight."]
"I agree with Maela," Bia pointed.
"Yes, but I'll do this first. We'll be in Hell one way or another, the palace is closer than Tartarus, it's on our way," I said firmly. "I will speak with them first. But I... how can I leave my siblings in here."
["Cousins."]
"By blood, but in my heart they are my siblings, stop that!" I snapped.
"They will be safer in here than in Tartarus, no?"
"I'm not so sure about that anymore, Bia," sigh. "But they are strong. Still, I'll feel bad leaving them in here for a bit. I'll talk to Irina and see if she can take care of them when I'm away for a while. She's my friend, the only one I have."
"Not the only one anymore," she winked. "Well, well, now, you should get up, Princess, it's 10 am already," grabbing her mug from the ground, she stood up and I finally realized she was already with the uniform, there are many designs but she picked the skirt with the sweater and knee-high boots, everything was black but the sweater that's dark red, and her hair is in twin high ponytails. "Prince Charming came around 8 am to give you our schedules, but I told him you were sleeping, and he only believed it when he heard you heavy breathing in your sleep, so, he gave me two touchscreen magical devices, and told me we could come for the 10 am last morning period, or lunch at 11 am, then he left."
"Prince Charming?" I glared at her mockingly.
She grinned mischievously, "Your Prince Charming Eric."
"Oh, fuck off," I groaned, getting up. "I can't loose lunch, I've been missing the food in here for a bloody millennial," but when I looked down, I realized I was butt naked and I stared at Bianca who blushed. "Did you undress me?"
"You couldn't sleep in those tight clothes, so, yes, thank you, you're welcome."
"I knew you wanted to see me naked," I provoked her.
"Not like that," she gasped. "Come on, I made you a hot cocoa."
"Oh? Is that were you were drinking?"
"No, I was drinking the aged whiskey I found around here," she cackled. "But kids should drink hot cocoa in the morning."
"In what world am I a kid?" I gasped.
"I'm 26 years older than you, I held you as a baby, you are a kid," she mocked.
"You did not just use the held-you-as-a-baby card on me."
"Oh, I did," Bia purred. "Now, got take a bath and get ready to school."
My jaw dropped, "I am not a kid."
"You are to me," she sang. "Go, now, Asterin. Seriously, you need bath."
I sniffed my armpit and flinched, "Ugh, I stink."
"Well, since you're the one saying it, yes, baby girl, you do. Now, bath!"
"Annoyinnnnng," I grabbed the red towel and walked to the bathroom close to our private balcony, feeling the cool air on my skin, which I missed.
"You got an amazing cake there," Bianca purred.
"Stop looking at my ass, you pervert."
"Said the succubus demon," she cackled.
"Fuck off," I ran to the bathroom.
