Release That Succubus



She watched as he gulped and she could tell he was hiding something, however instead of telling her the truth he shook his head at her instead as he offered her a small smile.

"Oh it is nothing for you or anyone else to worry about. Everything is fine." He assured her. However violet could tell that there was something that wasn't quite adding right.

She knew that there was something that hew wasn't telling her.

She narrowed her eyes at him as she looked over at him intently. She watched the bead of sweat that slid down his face and the way that his hands tensed slightly.

She read through his mind and she widened her eyes as she realized what he was heading.

She cursed herself internally when she realized that what he was hiding was the fact that he knew about princess Candice alliance and that he wasn't planning on telling Zach about it.

She couldn't begin to understand why he would consider doing that. She knew that it wasn't going to end well.

She was well aware of the fact that hiding things from Zach wasn't a good idea. They were meant to be partners which meant that they were supposed to tell each other everything.

What that also meant was that they couldn't lie to each other. She knew that in the end he would find out and he would then have to go on to explain why he had done it.

"You can't do that." She said to him suddenly as she sprang up to her feet.

She watched as her father looked towards her strangely in confusion. However after a moment he let out a sigh from his lips as he rubbed his temples.

He realized that she had gone ahead to read his mind. He sent her a deep glare before gritting his teeth at her. "I told you not to read my mind anymore." He said to her in a warming tone.

She didn't seem remorseful as she only shrugged her shoulders at him in response. "well I don't feel bad for doing it. If I hadn't then I wouldn't have been able to find out that you were intending to keep this information away from Zach." she said to him.

She watched as he shrugged his shoulders at her in response before letting out a sigh as he ran a hand through his hair.

"I don't see how that is any of your business. You are a member of the Windsor family and you know that we are always going to come first before the Smiths. I am only trying to help our family and look out for us." He said to her as he raised his hands up in surrender.

She shook her head at him in response as she knew that she couldn't agree with his words.

"You are trying to protect us and I appreciate you for that, I know. For a fact that it can't be easy. But have you forgotten everything that the Smiths have done for us. You seem to forget that they have been looking out for us as well and we owe them our loyalty. "she said to him.

He chuckled slightly as he shook his head and it was clear that he didn't entirely agree with her words.

"Yes well loyalty is good and great but how sure are you that they are going to remain loyal to us. That they will not turn their backs on us at the first chance that they get." He said to her.

She was silent or a moment because she didn't know how to answer him and the truth was thar there was no way for her to be sure about their loyalty either.

"Well I can't be sure but we shouldn't be the ones to make the first move of distrust. That is what Candice wants she wants a way for her to be able to tear us apart. And if we are already giving her an avenue for her to do that then she is already starting to win. We can't allow that to happen. We can't allow her to win." She said to him harshly.

He was quiet for a moment as he thought over her words for a moment. He didn't want to admit it but he knew for a fact that her words were true. 

Candice was already causing more trouble for them. Instead of them drifting apart they should have been working on how to get closer to each other.

They couldn't let her win and that would mean that they would simply have to form an even stronger front than the one that they had before.

"I know that you know that I am right and you are only afraid to admit it. Well that is fine. But I am only trying to tell you the facts here.. you have to be careful. You may be doing this for the betterment of our family but that isn't how it is. You have to consider how Zach will feel if he later comes to realize that you didn't tell him this information and you had been hiding it from him instead." She said to him.

He knew that it would cause the complete collapse of the Windsor family and there would be nothing left for him to save because Zach would completely obliterate any agreement that they had with each other.

Instead of saving his family Marico would end up leading it completely destroyed.

He didn't know why he hadn't thought about it before. He had allowed his fear of Candice to get the beast of him.

He knew that Zach's trust was one of the most important things to him and it was the one thing that he knew that he had to make sure that he maintained.

"You see as I told you before. You have to be careful about all of this and you know that the last thing that you wasn't is for you to break the agreement that you already have in order for you to go out in search for one that isn't assured. You losing Zach isn't worth it and it will only end badly for all of us." She said to him.

She could tell that the gears in his head were turning but there was also another part of her that knew that the chances of him listening to her were low.

She let out a sigh form her lips as she turned around and readied herself to leave the office.

"I know that you think that you are doing this for us and that you wasn't to help the family but you should know that some things aren't always for the betterment of the family and there are some things that will only lead us into more trouble." She said to him in a warning tone.

"So just think about it." She said to him.

She watched as he looked up towards her one last time. He had a glint in his eyes as his voice went deeper before he said to her, "I will think about it." She knew however that his words weren't the truth and that they were only half felt.

She let out a sigh form her lips as she shook her head before she turned round to leave. she knew that she had at least tried to get him to see reason but she knew for a fact that the man was very stubborn and she knew that he has his mind set.

Marico watched as she left the room. He knew that she had some convincing points and that there was a part of him that wanted to listen to her. 

There was a part of him that demanded that he did as she asked but there was also a part of him that was hesitant about all of it.

He sucked in a deep breath as he shook his head at the very thought. 

He knew that Zach was his partner and that he was someone that trusted him and his loyalties did lie with him but for once he couldn't think about Zach. He had to think about his own people.

He knew that it may have seemed selfish to some but it was his time to put his family first and he knew that revealing this information was something that would cause Zach to push further away from wanting peace.

At least if he kept it with him he would have something to use as leverage if a battle were to be waged and he was able to get some form of ammunition in order for him to defend himself.

He thought back towards violet. He knew that her loyalty lied with her family first. And he knew for a fact that she wouldn't betray him. He hoped that she would be able to realize why he was doing this.

She was still just a kid and was still too naive to what was happening in the world around her. He didn't blame her for protesting against what he was doing but soon enough she would come to realize the reason why he was doing it.

He sighed as he ran a hand through his hair before he relaxed against his chair and he felt a small smile come over his features.

He knew that no matter what happened he was going to make sure that he ended up being on top and that was the most important thing for him.
