I was told by a maid that Hendery wanted to have an afternoon tea with me in the gazebo.

"Sure."

I replied lightly as she told me again that she was summoned to here to take care of me.

Unlike the others, she was a demon in her human form. She was under Jisung's care and also took a part as his worker.

"Miss."

"Yes?"

"Your birthday is upcoming, right?"

She brushed the ends of my roots to smoothen it out before spraying perfume from the tip of my head to the end of my feet.

"I heard a lot of people and audiences are eager to see your debutante."

She took out a white, scruffy peasant blouse; layered, rococo skirt; a leather basque and knee high boots to complete my outfit.

"You look so good even in a simple outfit, miss."

"Thank you."

I smiled as she escorted me out to the gazebo.

I couldn't believe the fact that I had been here for almost a year. As I came to here few days after my birthday.

Mama... Papa...

I had been thinking about them for a long time. Never a day not be spent to think about them.

"Here you are, Y/N."

Hendery took out the chair for me to sit before pushed it slightly and sat down before me.

"It's a beautiful sky, right?"

"It is."

I replied as he coughed to gain my attention.

"As you know, I'm Hendery, the fourteenth prince of Hell."

"Yes, I do know about that."

Unlike his brothers, Hendery was that kind of gentleman who'll treat you as lady.

"Well, I'm here as the behalf of Xiaojun when he made you feel uneasy."

"It's alright. I mean, he had no ill intentions toward me."

I was doing my best to not make Hendery upset. Especially because he was the first one that didn't hurt me as the Rulers of East Inferno.

"At least, please accept this humble gift from us to be forgiven by you."

He placed a red velvet box on the table as I took it reluctantly and opened it.

I found a set of earrings and necklace of lapis lazuli and diamonds. Obviously, he spent a loads of money to buy it for me.

I told him it wasn't that bad to be given a pair of these. A simple sorry would be enough because I was easily startled and Xiaojun didn't meant to.

"Y/N, you're a Virgo, right?"

"Yeah, why?"

He stood up from his chair and brought my hand to the telescope at the balcony.

"Tonight, constellation of Virgo will be seen."

He pushed me gently to take a peak in the telescope as he guide me to see where was the constellation located at.

"Woah, it's beautiful."

I exclaimed as he chuckled at my child-like curiousity. He told me the sun hasn't set fully, so it'd be nicer later.

"Tomorrow is Y/N's birthday."

Most of us had prepared what will we give to her. But, I was one of them who haven't decided yet.

I remembered that Y/N was quite fond of desserts and pastries. But, I couldn't give her that. Jisung already stole the idea and people would think that I'm a copycat.

"Jeno?"

"Eh! Yeah?"

I was to equipped by the thoughts of presents that will be given to her. Making the others looked at me with curious.

"Where do you think our military base should be located?

"I think we should place it at the South part of Inferno. Precisely, Vérbehërusch and Deitronomia. Because they are close to the border of Cantalia and Heminaz, North part of Heaven."

We were discussing with eachother about that because some Angels were trying to trespass into the Inferno.

"So, anything else?"

No one raised their hand.

"Then we will do Jeno's plan now. Thank you for today and you all are dismissed now."

I walked out the room with quick pace and almost tripped over a carpet if it was not for Jaemin who caught me in the middle of the air.

"So, Sir New General. Something's ticking you off right now?"

Jaemin smirked as he knew being called that would always get on my nerve.

"Well, Incubus. I was having a good day if it's not for someone who knows it really well what he did."

I replied as he enjoyed it more. Jaemin was goofy, kind and stuff. But, that stupid smile of his need to be slapped off from his face by someone.

"Well then, good luck."

He left me hanging out in the mid as he disappeared before I could grab his neck and choke him to death.

"That Incubus."

I shrugged it off and still thinking what do I need to give to Y/N for her 16th birthday's present.

"Tea?"

"No!"

I roared.

I loved Irene, my sister, so much. But, she didn't help me with anything and I can't decide what to give to Y/N while pacing through this room.

"I mean, Silver Grey Tea is usually given by the King to the Queen for her coronation or birthday."

She added up. Giving me an idea that it could be a good present.

The time was ticking but I keep pacing around this room like a madman. Sometimes, I would kick the citrus scented, well-polished mahogany wood floors and abruptly throwing random things onto the floor.

Adding more works for my sister's maid. She didn't stop me or even move her fan of peacock feathers to stop me.

As if, she was letting me to act childish and throwing a tantrum everywhere until I could finally calm down.

I stopped my steps. Brushing few stray strands of my hairs away from my face before took a seat beside Irene.

I couldn't stop my feet which keep tapping on the floor repeatedly as I bit my fingernail. Trying to calm myself down over this whole thing.

"Finish?"

I nodded and she stood up. Walking toward her double-doors walk-in closet as I waited for her in silent.
