[-In the Penthouse of Melody-]

7:00 am

​​

Morning after finding out that Malia was actually destined to be the next supreme ruler of all supernatural beings.

Both of her close friends, Melody and Booth sat for their breakfast.

Staring at their cereals and milk on their bowl while thinking of Malia as the chosen one.

Malia was busy contemplating on the revelation of Freddie.

Deep into her own thoughts.

Until she could no longer contain her own thoughts.

"Me as the chosen one … the destined supreme ruler of all supernatural being?" loudly voiced out by Malia.

Immediately, Melody and Booth looked at each other.

"What should we call you if you are the destined … supreme ruler of all supernaturals?" Booth wondered.

"Your Majesty?" Melody suggested.

"Your GREATNESS? GODESS?" Booth added.

"Oh, right! Because there are plethora of species of supernatural beings. The title must be universal and applicable to all supernatural beings ... YOUR SUPREME!" Melody was so engaged in suggesting on what to call Malia for her destined role in the supernatural world.

The two of her friends were now exchanging different suggestions.

Sounding less serious when the two laughed at the sight of Malia.

Glaring at both of them.

"I cannot believe that two of you are thinking of that right now. SO SILLY for the two of you. Instead of thinking more important things brought by this new information." Malia was looking worried.

Knowing her true purpose and destined role in the world of supernatural beings.

"What could be more important in knowing how to call you from now on?" Booth reiterated to Malia.

As he took a bow at Malia.

Melody followed his gesture.

Instead of feeling better, the presence of Melody and Booth were starting to annoy Malia.

Due to their constant teasing.

Knives were starting to float and were pointed towards Melody and Booth.

"Okay! Okay! We will behave." Booth stopped acting silly.

Including Melody.

"But seriously, you as the next supreme ruler of all supernatural being is a great thing. Imagine the lives you will be able to save. And those who will feel relieved from your rulership." Melody was encouraging Malia.

"I agree with Melody on this one. Now, we have to help you claim the throne you deserve." Booth casually stated.

In the middle of their conversation.

Someone joined in without asking him.

"And what … endanger her? Don't you know there are plenty of dark creatures want her dead? The last time we were with her was in a freaking war against powerful and strong creatures." Freddie opposed with the Booth's suggestions.

Freddie explained to them the instability and complications at the moment surrounding with the issue of Malia as the destined supreme ruler of all supernatural beings.

"So … would you still suggest for her to claim the throne? Knowing that …

First, many dark creatures will go after her.

Second, the lacking support system that will rally behind her.

Third, a lot of uncertainties and things are needed to be cleared first.

For this few reasons, it is too early and it is too hasty for her to do so without really knowing what to do once she gets there." Freddie's words made sense.

Putting them all in a serious thought.

But Malia had something in mind which Freddie was doubtful about.

"Lucas can clear it for me. At least he can clarify a lot of things. And if what you told us last night, that I was last seen in a war against those who wanted me and my supposed brother dead. Then, I must talk with Lucas as soon as possible." Malia seriously emphasized the urgency of meeting with her brother again.

"How will you do that?" Melody curiously asked.

A hint of jealousy and worry at the mention of someone closely related to Malia.

Compared to her, Lucas had a stronger bond than what Malia and her shares.

"I can go to him … just in case he doesn't respond to my call." Malia mindlessly answered.

Altogether, they responded.

"WHAAAT?" all of them responded in unison.

Even Freddie.

"Have you gone crazy?"

"Seriously?"

"That's insane!"

Three different reactions after they responded at Malia's statement.

"What so wrong about it? I know how to find him since I have something from him which I can use to locate him. And lastly, he gave me an address where I could easily meet him."

Malia continued, "It will be like a visit too! So … is that an absurd idea to consider?"

Without any hesitation.

Together they responded once again.

"YES!"

"Fine! So, should I just wait until he shows up again?"

…

Without any hesitation.

Together they responded once again.

"YES!"

Malia shook her head as she started eating her breakfast.

"Let's just eat our breakfast!"

Freddie felt some relief that the attention was diverted into Malia's identity as the destined supreme ruler.

His calculated answers paid off.

Technically, Freddie complied with Malia's request but he had chosen the right answers into his advantage where she would be more worried and concern with rather than other details.

Such revelation made it possible for him to deflect the issue regarding Ivan and Georgie.

'It is better this way … for you to be away from those who brought misery and suffering to you.' Freddie thought to himself as he sipped his coffee.

"By the way, I heard that there was some accident by the cliff … few kilometers away from the venue of the fashion event." Booth suddenly mentioned.

Nerve-wracking guilt and anxiety entered Freddie's senses.

"How did you come across with this piece of information?" Freddie acted cool while asking.

"I guess you have a little knowledge about hunters. You see … hunters patrol areas. Especially around human gatherings and special events. Mostly, each city have number of hunters patrolling around. So … some hunters informed us about the accident and looks like someone survived from the accident." Booth replied.

Ben appeared with a worried look on his face.

"I was right. There is a foul play on the incident. Apparently the driver got wounded. Booth let's check on it. If a supernatural being got involved with it, then we may have to hunt that bastard. Finish your breakfast already so we can go."

…

Things just got complicated for Freddie.
