Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 529 - Lilith - Mother

Wiping the building of dust upon Arsene's cheeks, I could not help but purse my lips. "Why is it always like this? You sleep while I am stuck lying awake? At least your rod still works. We had a marvelous time, you know."

Touching my stomach, I giggled to myself. "Two months, but still no luck. Shame, but I will keep trying."

"You're sick. That is literally sexual assault." Ezra abruptly claimed, stepping into our bedroom.

"So? I don't see you trying to stop me?" I fired back, waving her concerns off. "What is it? I was about to leave."

"Casia is growing restless as of late. Sultan is storming houses in search of Arsene. It will not be long before he succeeds." She explained, causing a frown to appear upon my lips.

"That man is beginning to annoy me. Any news on that angel that appeared?" I solemnly inquired. Knowing we could not have such a catastrophe appear.

"Before father left, he said this was a test. Arch-Angel usually acts with a partner. They are rarely by themselves. So we believe Yael is in hiding, mending his wounds."

Staring down at Sene sleeping soundlessly, I ran my hands through his black and silver hair, "I should really wake you, but I can sense you are still changing. How much longer are you going to be asleep? You know I wish to be a god as well."

"Let's go," I sharply commanded. Taking Ezra's shoulder, a silver arch of sterling light flashed over our eyes as we appeared within our manner in Casia.

With Arsene out of commission, I needed to prepare for my end before I became a god. I was not in much danger as the Angels didn't know I was Lilith. I had some leeway, but anything could go wrong, especially since Tain Wang is missing.

His absence was a bit annoying as he was a part of the plan. However, what better way is there to bring someone to you than to use their own flesh and blood? I will show him he cannot hide and plot without my permission.

Leaving the guest bedroom, Ezra trailed behind me as we made our way down the banister and into the parlor, where all the Chosen of Nox sat enjoying each other's company.

"Cleo, wanna go on a mission with me? I could use a cute girl like you?"

"And what about me?" Yu Jing sharply addressed.

Rolling my eyes, I struggled hesitantly, "You are fine, I guess. You aren't ugly, and Sene did glance at you a few times."

"I told you it's that bitch attitude of yours." Said Sig, "Lose the bitchness."

"Screw you! I am hot!" She claimed, but all I could see was a dead bitch. I would have killed her if she wasn't a good babysitter—Screw Arsene's plan.

Pondering for a moment, I suddenly giggled, "Oh, I know, let's all do it. You guys do not even have to leave."

Waving my left hand, a wave of profoundness traced over my fingers as space fractured. Twisting into a large shard that reflected our images, I smiled.

Clapping my hands almost like a prayer, the image within the mirrored shard, rippled revealing an elegant woman with long black hair.

She held a bit of resemblance to Yu Jing, but not very much. However, her skin was snow white, her eyes a deep silver color. Resting in what appeared to be a garden, my smile faded a bit.

"Hello, Mother."

Staring at me silently. Yu Shan's gaze trailed over the chosen before returning to me, "Mother? Is that all you have to say?" She said sharply, "how long has it been? Forty years? Fifty? Not once have you called me?"

"I could say the same, Mother. You and Father never bothered to call me. What can I say? I took a bit of offense to that."

"Still a defiant little brat. What do you want, girl? Regretting marrying some devil?" She asked as I sneered inwardly at the hypocrisy.

I hated, Yu-Shan. She was nothing more than a vain woman, looking for the best. Her elegance was but a lie to fool the onlookers. Tian Wang was a fool getting in bed with such a whore.

I was sure Tian Wang never once mentioned that there was chosen from Nox around me or the whole story around me. Yu-Shan struggled to keep her emotion in check when no one was watching.

Like a snake, she would plot behind closed doors. I was sure she was the one who wanted me to marry that fool Arsene had Greyson experiment on.

Nonetheless, this was perfect for me. Tian never did like to explain his plans until they were complete, something I always found stupid.

"Oh, Shan. Allow me to introduce you to your... Is it, sister? Cousin? I don't know, but she is Yu Lans, daughter; this is Yu Jing, Chosen of Nox." I stated, taking Yu Jing by surprise.

It was not my intent to use her, but why not? Better to get what I want now before it's too late.

Narrowing her gaze, a glint of malice flickered through her eyes, "I remember, but Yu Lan never mentioned her daughter was a part of Nox and a chosen at that."

"A disciple of a founder, in fact." Wrapping my hands around Cleo, I added, "So is this one. Her master is Talos."

"What is the point of this, Yura?" Yu-Shan uttered darkly, masking the vicious intent.

"Well, I don't know how my little brother looks to be, so I couldn't call him. You know how the Dao of space looks. I did learn a lot from you.

Yu Shans' gaze grew a bit softer as she stared at the two women by my side, "And who are the others in the back?"

"Bitches,"

"FUCK YOU!" Sig roared, "I am the great Sigfried; I too am a disciple of a Founder. Same with the Sissy here."

"Screw you, Sig. Look what you did? Now even Arkanos is calling me Sissy!"

"Where do you think I got it from?" He said, fist-bumping the little dragon grinning mischievously. "She is a total badass. When her parents aren't looking."

Twitching my brow, I glared at Arkanos, who suddenly hid behind Sig. Turning back to Yu-Shan, the sin of greed and envy was clear as day. One needn't be a devil or demon to tell what she was thinking."

"Why don't I send Tian Long to you? It will be a good idea to have him spend some time with his big sister." She said with a sweet smile.

Masking my disgust, I, too, smiled. "Send him to Yu Lans palace, and we shall pick him up."

"See that you do," She said, severing the connection.

"Poor kid." Said Sig, shaking his head, "Even I know he is fucked."

"Please, he is a man in his twenties.." I countered with indifference. "When he dies, I wonder what expression Yu-Shan will have?"
