"It is always the ones with dirty hands pointing the fingers."- Sonya Teclai.

*************************

Heaven was preparing herself to go to the dinner that she was invited to. She looked at herself in the mirror and thought of whether it would be a good idea to go there wearing her own clothes or if she should dress like everyone else. She didn't want to draw attention and walking around dressing like she did back home made everyone know that she was new to the kingdom. That is not what she wanted. She wanted to blend in.

After staring at herself for a while, she decided that she needed to change her clothes. She went to the suitcase that the women brought to her room and opened it. There were several fabrics in beautiful colors, but she grabbed a green one that matched the color of her eyes. Quickly changing into the strange clothes, she went to the mirror and looked at herself again.

Her first thought was, no!

This was too revealing. Her entire stomach and back were bare, and she wasn't comfortable revealing that much, especially now that she had lost so much weight. The skirt was tight around her hips, accentuating her curves, and the splits on the sides revealed her lower legs when she moves. She felt naked.

While staring at her figure, her grandmother walked into the room. Her eyes widened when she saw the way she had dressed.

"What is happening?" She asked.

Heaven's shoulders fell. "I was invited to dinner by Lothaire's daughters." She said then explained what happened.

Irene nodded. "Will you wear this?" She didn't like it.

Heaven didn't feel comfortable in it either, so she decided to change back into her own dress. "No." She said, going back to pick up her much less revealing gown.

"I am coming with you." Her grandmother was resolute, leaving no room for argument.

"Alright." Heaven said, feeling no need to argue when her grandmother had already set up her mind.

She wasn't invited, but who cared. Once Hezznin was here to escort her, Heaven would introduce her grandmother. If Hezznin continued to act kind, then she would invite her grandmother as well.

And she was right. When Hezznin arrived at her door, she asked her grandmother to have dinner with them as well. She led them to what she called the main quarter. It was where the devil's family stayed.

The main quarter had a different feel to it. It was brighter and more luxurious, with golden and wooden interior. Hezznin was very talkative, telling them a little about the kingdom, the people and her family. She had a soothing voice and a gentle smile as she spoke.

Heaven guessed that they neared the dinning hall when she heard the sound of instruments playing, chatter, and laughter. They came to a large wooden door with a guard standing on each side. The guards opened the door for them and they entered a great hall filled with people. This didn't look like a simple family dinner.

Hezznin noticed her surprised expression and smiled. "We are a big family." She explained.

Heaven nodded.

There were several large tables placed around the room, leaving the middle empty for a few women who danced to the music. They seemed to like a lot of entertainment in this kingdom.

The tables were covered with food, wine, candles, and decorations. A few servants were present near every table, serving the guests.

Tezznin was talking to a few guests when they entered the room. She excused herself to come and greet them. Then both of her aunts introduced their mates and children.

Hezznin had two daughters, and Tezznin a daughter and a son. Hezznin's youngest daughter was closest to Heaven's age. Her name was Lilian.

Lilian took upon herself to show her around and introduce her to the rest of her cousins. The ones from her uncles side. All of them were very kind and welcomed her. But Heaven wanted to see her uncles. The rulers of the different kingdoms. She was curious to know what they were like and how they would react to her arrival.

She didn't think that they would like her, even if they pretended to. Her grandfather chose her to be a ruler among them. They would probably not like that someone as young and inexperienced as her got the same role and status as them.

Heaven watched her grandmother from a distance, sitting with her aunts and other female demons. She didn't seem to enjoy herself, and neither was Heaven. Her cousins were kind, and Lilian made a special effort to make her feel included in the conversations by asking her questions. They all listened carefully, wanting to know what her life as a princess was like.

When Heaven spoke positively about her life, they wondered why she was here. "Grandfather is forcing me to stay here." She spoke the truth.

"Why?" One of them asked.

"Well, he thinks I am fit to become a ruler. I will rule one of the kingdoms here." She explained nonchalantly.

If her grandfather wanted her for that purpose, then why not tell everyone? She just wanted to annoy them all. Some of them already looked at her in disbelief.

"Are you not too young for that?" One of them asked.

He was one of her uncles son and she could see that he already thought that her becoming a ruler was an insult to his father.

Great, Heaven thought.

"Grandfather is wise. If he thinks I am capable of ruling then…" She shrugged. "I guess I am."

Something in Lilian's gaze changed, but she forced a smile on her face. "Grandfather is very good at discovering different talents. I am sure he sees something special in you." She spoke in the same positive tone she used all the time.

Some of her cousins didn't agree with Lilian, who was smart enough to not show her dislike of her comments. Like mother, like daughter, Heaven thought. They were all smart.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the hall changed when two men walked in. They were tall, with toned bodies and glowing skin. Really glowing, as if their bodies had been oiled.

One of them had golden hair and golden eyes and looked very much like her grandfather. He wore a white robe around his waist and was adorned with golden jewelries. The other one wore blue robes that match his blue eyes. He matched his jewelries to his silver hair.

Heaven didn't have to guess who they were. They looked very much like her grandfather. They were her uncles, and just like her aunts, their beauty was mesmerizing.
