"Father! What have you done?" Tezz looked at him as if he had become crazy.

He had done nothing like this before, but again he had never been this desperate before. Heaven annoyed him. The girl was impossible, and she never listened.

"What have I done?" He asked calmly.

Lothaire hadn't told Hezz and Tezz the whole plan, and now both were shocked.

"You want Heaven to rule. She has to do it willingly so your job is to tempt and manipulate her. Not control her."

She was right. Except it was not Heaven he wanted.

Manipulation and temptation rarely worked on Heaven. She had strong moral values and her desires were good ones. Besides, he tempted and manipulated those he wanted to sin because sin must be done by choice and if he controlled them to sin, then it wouldn't be their choice.

But he wasn't interested in making Heaven sin. Not now, anyway. Right now, he just wanted her to come to him and stay with him, and what better way to do it than to threaten the existence of her mate.

"I will tempt her once she is here and she will be here soon."

Lothaire had no other choice. Heaven was strong and her family made her even stronger. Whenever he managed to manipulate her and make her weak, her family would help her find strength again.

He was tired of playing that game and doing the same thing over and over again and have her family ruin it for him. As long as she stayed with them, she would remain strong. It made him realize that he had to change his plan. He had to separate her from her family if he wanted to manipulate her successfully.

Creating fear in her of what might happen wasn't very affective since she knew he had something to do with it. So he had to show. He had to make her believe that what she feared wasn't just a mind game but could actually happen in reality.

If she had just been weak and surrendered sooner, then this wouldn't have happened. But she fought back, and now this was what she got.

"I don't understand. You have always been patient. Why go to such extreme just to get her now? Does she have something you need right now?" Tezz asked.

She was confused, and it scared her that she couldn't predict his actions anymore. She was worried he would do something reckless. In fact, she already thought that his actions had been reckless. Possessing someone wasn't safe. But it was the fastest route, and he was willing to take the risk.

Heaven would never hurt her mate simply by being manipulated. He had to use her body.

Lothaire had only once possessed someone before. That wasn't what he did as the devil. He could have just compelled Heaven to do what he wanted, but he wasn't sure if his compulsion would be strong enough to make her go against her strongest desire, which was to protect her mate. He had to make sure that his plan would work this time, and possessing her body was the surest way. She wouldn't be able to fight him once he possessed her.

The nightmares he gave her didn't completely go to waste. It might not have affected her moral values, but it made her body and mind weaker, and while she was unconscious, he could easily enter her body.

Tezz and Hezz took care of the rest. Poisoning the dagger with the deadliest poison they could find and making everyone tired and sleepy.

Lothaire made sure everything was under control, but there was one thing he wondered. Would Zamiel's healing slow down if Heaven stabbed him while possessed? Because even if it was her body that stabbed him, she wouldn't be the one who made the decision to do so.

He didn't want Zamiel to heal fast. He needed Heaven to believe that her mate was going to die.

Lothaire added the poison in case the stabbing didn't work. Poison was the only thing that could bring a demon to the brink of death before they could recover. He also added it because it was Zamiel's greatest fear and that would have an affect on Heaven. She would blame herself even more. The guilt would eat at her soul.

The possession itself would also affect her. Losing control completely was the most frightening thing humans could experience. It would make her lose complete trust in herself and in her abilities, which would also benefit him in the future.

He would have to tear her down in order to build her up the way he wanted her to be. At that moment, he almost forgot he was doing all of it to get Irene. He found excitement in this new experiment. Experimenting was his next favorite thing after manipulating.

Would he be able to change Heaven completely?

And would she be the only one changing? Possession had consequences for both parties involved. What would the consequences be for him?

"Father, you don't just possess someone. Especially not someone who doesn't share your values." Hezz looked at him with judging eyes.

"I know. Don't worry. A simple possession won't change me."

Possessing someone could make you end up with their memories, or their feelings and thoughts could affect yours, sometimes so much that you could start liking the things they like. The longer you stayed in someone else's body, the worse the consequences would be.

But what could staying inside Heaven's body really do to him? He wasn't the least worried about any consequences. Changing his mind was not an easy task for anyone.

"I hope you make no more hasty decisions." Hezz spoke.

Lothaire looked at both of his daughters. Both of them seemed worried and suspicious.

"No more decisions. Now we just have to wait." He assured.

He would give Heaven some time. He didn't give her time earlier because he already knew she wouldn't come to him by just scaring her with words. So he gave her little time with the purpose to make her panic. That would make her weaker.

"What should we do with Zarin? It seems like your son is pulling him back." Tezz crossed her arms over her chest.

"Don't worry. Once Heaven is here, he will be pulled equally from both sides."

Lucian had a way of speaking. Lothaire had no doubt that his son's speech had an impact on Zarin. He had already expected that. No parent would watch their child walk toward hell without trying everything they could. Roshan was only restricted by Gina, and he knew what it meant to raise a finger against him.

"When will Heaven come here?" Tezz asked.

It would depend on Zamiel's condition and her own. Lothaire knew she would want to make sure that Zamiel was alright first.

"Soon." Was all he said.
