After Andel had run some forensic on the gadgets, he found out something that would be unbelievable. It's midnight when he called Dmitri. Dmitri answered shortly and he sounds like panting.
"Hey, are you busy? Am I not interrupting any session?"
"Uh, is it important."
"Yup."
"Okay," Dmitri said and then there's a little rustling sound. "I'm listening."
"This is a high-class empire. I run on a few fingerprints and it belongs to a man named Jacob Ike. He's one of the best hackers in the world and he worked at Lebedov, the Eagle Empire."
Dmitri is silent for a moment.
"Lebedov, Eagle Empire?"
"Yes. I have the recording that he probably dropped. They are targeting your family. They need to wash out the Phoenix Empire first and next is the Dragon Empire. I—I don't know why but it seemed like the Eagle Empire is rising even though Adrian, Grisha, and Ivana are dead."
"It might be their far relative," Dmitri said.
"How about Christian?"
"I trust the boy."
"Yes, the more you trust a Lebedov, the more they will take that advantage to put you down."
"I'll send you the recording. Andy already knew about this."
"Okay. I'll meet you up tomorrow."
"Yup. Will do."
Andel hung up and exhaled. Christian oath his life to the whole family. He needed to do wide research about Lebedov History. Well, maybe someone could just help him.

In the morning, Christian drives the car for Demi since Dmitri will be in an early meeting. He took his bag and then he helped her with her luggage. He saw Zendaya holding lots of bags, so he helped her took almost taking it all.
"Thank you, Christian. You are a lifesaver." She kissed his cheek and hold Demi��s hand as they walk. He followed them to their Dormitory and they still have two hours before the class starts. He helped the girls on somethings and Demi just place her bag on the corner.
"Here's for you." Zendaya gave him a paper bag with a box inside and with his name.
"Lady Zendy, you don't have to."
"I always give everyone gifts." She winked. "Don't worry about it. Besides, it's my first gift for you. It's bad luck if you didn't accept it."
"Thank you." He bowed his head.
"Come on, open it!" She said excitedly and even Aria is excited.
"Wait! We'll open the gifts at the same time." Aria reached Demi's box and gave it to her.
They did open their boxes and Aria shrieks as she pulled out the red dress.
"This is perfect for our dinner event." She checked it in the mirror.
He smiled at the running shoes. Well, his shoes are old, and the pair of the shoe looks comfortable. He stopped when there's another small box. He took it out and then pulled the coin pendant. It's pure gold even the lace and he looked closely on the symbols. It's four symbols and the first one is the Dragon Empire, then beside the Dragon Empire is the Phoenix Empire, below the Dragon Empire, is Knight Empire and below the Phoenix Empire is the Rose Empire Emblem.
"Miss,"
"Mom said you are part of this group. Dad made that for you." Zendaya said.
Christian couldn't stop the emotions. But he controlled it and even his heart wanted to cry out because they had accepted him and treat him as one of them even though his family brought disaster to theirs.
The boys entered the room and they hugged Dmitri and the girls. Christian looked at Demi who smiled at him and nodded.

Andel is holding baby Elizabeth when Dmitri arrived with paper bags for Ellen and Carter and the baby. They went to the study room and he showed him the footage.
"Owen is investigating further in the area and according to the security that you surrounded there, no one came back. I think they didn't know that they left something. This Jacob Ike isn't good at combats and other stuff and cleaning the scenario. He's just a good hacker and he always works in the background. I think on that day, he's not working alone. He's with someone and that someone might be the main person."
"I see."
"Have you talk to Christian?" He asked.
"I haven't."
"Well, we should know who in freaking hell wanted to kill your family. I mean, right away."

Christian is busy taking notes in their class. After the bell rang to indicate that it's already the end of their class, he started packing but a short skirt is just in front of him and he looked up at Hazel.
"Chris, can we talk?" She asked.
"I'm a little late on my work." He said. "Can we do that tomorrow?" He asked.
"No. Please."
He stood and picked his bag. Hazel dragged her to the storage room and locked it. Christian sighed.
"Hazel, we can't. Okay?"
She adjusted her skirt and pushed her panties and then she opened her blouse. She tucked her panties in his pocket, and she pushed him on the wall. He just watched her whatever she wanted to do. She knelt down and then unbuckle his pants and reached him. It wasn't hard like they always do and as soon as she sucked it, he started getting aroused.
He held her head and thrust her mouth deeper.
When he's fully aroused, she bent down on the boxes and told him to do it. He took out a packet of condoms from his wallet and put it on and there, he gave what they both wanted.
As soon as he's done with her, he fixed his clothes and he gave her panties to her. Then he came out and froze when Demi is passing by with Zendaya. Zendaya covered her mouther and Hazel kissed his cheek.
Christian exhaled and started walking. Then the two girls followed him and snickered.
"Girls, this is our life. Unfortunately, Kale would do the same, Rhys and Raiden would do the same…"
"I thought you break up with her?" Demi asked and she kept laughing with Zendaya.
"I did. But she's very persistent."
Demi pulled out a hand sanitizer from her bag and gave it to her.
"Thank you, Princess, for being considerate. But we use a condom."
Zendaya and Demi laughed out loud and do their secret handshake.
"I don't want to see anyone fucking." Zendaya said it bluntly.
"You'll eventually see someone or something," Christopher told.
"Yeah, but at not this age. Duh, I am still busy focusing on how to take over the Empire when Mom told me to." Zendaya said as she flipped her head.
"Wow, you girls are serious about taking over?" Christian smiled at them. "Good job girls. I'll support you until the end."
"You don't need to. You have to get married and then have kids…" Zendaya told.
"I think that won't happen." Christian chuckled. "Anyway, let's not talk about the future."
His phone started ringing and he stopped and answer it.
"Yes, sir?"
"Come to my office," Dmitri said.
"Copy sir." He put down his phone and face the girls. "I need to run. You girls could make it in the café?"
"Yes, sure." They said at the same time and he left and did run.
He reached Dmitri's office and he knocked first and then squeeze the doorknob. He entered and take few steps to Dmitri's desk. Dmitri stood from his seat and put a recorder over the table. He looked at it with a question on top of his head.
"We just recover few evidenced that the drones attack was from the Eagle Empire."
Christian is speechless. His mind is running lots of thoughts. Why and How?
"Sir, can I listen to the recording?"
Dmitri played it and the man is speaking in Russian with someone. Christian heart is crushing after hearing from two men who are speaking to kill each heir and heiress of the Phoenix Empire so they could proceed to the Dragon Empire. Then one of the men asked, how about the heir of the Eagle Empire? Then the low growling voice of another man said that they will soon take him.
"Do you want to take it over?" Dmitri asked.
"No, sir."
"Then what do you want?"
"I want to change my surname and forget that I am a Lebedov. I wanted to continue serving and protecting your family."
"But if you betray us?"
"Then, I'll have to take all of the punishments from you."
Dmitri scoffed.
"Christian, I thought of you as my son. My wife treats you like a son. I hate to think that you are part of this."
"I am not sir. I would never do such things to put your family in danger. I already oath myself to you and your daughter."
Dmitri nodded.
"Let's change your name then." Dmitri stopped the recording. "I think my daughter doesn't like hearing Lebedov, that's why she spoke to you about that."
"I don't know how you know about that but, I wanted to do it as a promise to Lady Demi."
Dmitri looked at Christian. He's sincere.
