A bat flapped its wing as it entered the window of a lavish room. The room was dimly lit, the furniture of the room looked antique and classy, carpet on the floor, red curtains near the window, different paintings hung on the wall, and a King size bed with white bedsheets and red velvet blanket.

In this dimly lit room, sat a woman on a chair with a glass of red wine in her hands.

"What did you find out?"

The woman questioned, since the room was dimly lit, her face wasn't visible, however, from her calm voice, one could see that she was a woman who was confident and is aiming to achieve more in her life.

The bat that entered the room transformed into a humanoid figure kneeling on the ground.

It was Cassius.

"My Lady."

He greeted.

"…"

The woman just sipped on the red 'wine', waiting for her question to be answered.

"He says that he needs time."

Cassius replied.

"Time?"

The woman's tone didn't change much, however, she did sound a little confused.

"Yes, he says that he is worried about his wives, and will not enter until you guarantee his safety."

"And how am I supposed to do that?"

"He wants you to write a letter that says that you ensure his safety, and he wants that letter to contain the Bloodheart Family's emblem and your signatures," Cassius reported Nux's condition.

"That is quite bold of him."

The woman replied, again, there was no particular change in her tone.

"It is indeed."

Cassius nodded.

"What if we still kill him and his wives after sending the letter?"

The woman questioned in a slightly amused tone.

"I did not ask that question, however, if I were to answer guess his answer, then he would say,

'The mighty Bloodheart Duke House got back on their words in order to kill me and my wives, I guess as mere Emperors, we should be proud'."

"You seem to like him."

The woman questioned.

"I am impressed by him, yes."

Cassius didn't hide.
