Dmitri arrived at Pattinson Residence with a tired face but when he saw Demi still awake and playing with her Uncle Owen, laughing and giggling makes all of those stress and exhaustion faded. Before Demi could see her, Agatha dragged him away up to her room.
"Darling, what's up?" He asked.
"You need to take a shower first." She told and then she started removing his jacket and pants and then suit.
She also removed her dress and then she took him to the bathroom.
"Oh," His eyes widen seeing the jacuzzi full of roses petals and then scented candles. She snuggled to him.
"You are too busy, and you are always with Demi."
"Don't be jealous, my beauty." He caressed her hair and then he lifted her from the carpet and take her to the jacuzzi.
They snuggle for a while and eventually make love. They dressed up after for their late dinner and they went downstairs. Demi saw her father and she started crying.
"Why do you guys need to sneak out?" Owen asked. "She saw the two of you." Owen grinned. Demi frowned at her father.
"Don't be jelly, baby." Dmitri took Demi and wiped her tears.
"Dinner's ready!"
Demi started babbling complaining to him. He just listened and nodded. Agatha laughed. While he had Demi on his arms, he never forgets to pull a chair for his wife.
"It's a late dinner and breakfast at the same time, huh," Eric said.
"Yes. We can't start without Dmitri also, it's our family tradition." His wife told and the wines have been distributed together with the maids and butlers and guards. They raise their glasses and drink.

Andy dressed Zendy in a beautiful Santa Clause outfit. Zach set the camera and their butlers and maids together with their bodyguards and security outside had gathered behind them as they capture a photo behind their gigantic Christmas Tree. Then all of them gathered on the table to eat.
It's was their first Christmas without the whole Clan together. But tomorrow until New Year they will travel to Dmitri's mansion for their Christmas Party Celebrations. A butler and a maid with come with them to help them with other things.
Andy wasn't that cruel to left out Allona. She gave her a nice dish of food and clothes. She needed to take a bath at least. She will send her soon to the Dungeon where every enemy that betrayed her is. She is that nice to everybody.
Besides, it's also Christmas. She doesn't want any killing on this day. Enough is enough.
Zendy is sitting in her high chair and she seemed to be already dozing with food in front of her. Andy giggled and then she reached Zendy, who immediately wrapped her arms around her neck and sleep. Zachary fed her.
"Enough, Zach. We need to leave early later." She mumbled.
"Sure."
They retire to their room and Andy put Zendaya to her room after changing her clothes into a comfortable one. They leave their daughter alone and Zachary took her to their room to make love to her. They both fall asleep and Zachary increased the volume of the nanny-cam from Zendaya's room and also adjusted the alarm.
"Pa, pa!" Zendaya called and it echoes in their room. Zachary sat up like a zombie and he looked at the camera. Zendaya is facing the camera and called him again. He looked at the clock. It's already five in the morning. They need to go.
His alarm goes off and he kissed Andy to wake her up. He walked briskly to her room and opened the door. She squealed in excitement.
"You are too early. You miss your cousins badly?" He kissed her forehead and picked her up. He turned off the air conditioner and then she pointed their room. He took her inside and then he put her on the bed so she could wake her mother. "Love, get up." He shook her feet and he went to the walk-in closet and pulled three luggage bags that Andy settled a week ago.
He readies the bathtub for Zendaya's bath together with her mother. After filling it with warm water he put soap on it. Then he went back to bed and found the mother and daughter snuggling and sleeping again.
He massaged his head.
"Girls, get up!"
Zendaya opened her eyes and then she closed it again. He grinned at her.
"Okay, I am leaving without the two of you." Zachary turned back.
"We're awake!" Andy sat up and then she took Zendaya with her.

Adrian is inside to what seemed to be a secret facility of the Philippine Government. He looked around and then to his father who had been injured. Ivana kept crying on the corner and Yves is staring at nowhere. They are doomed. Already.
"I already set assassins that would get us out of there," Grisha said then he glared at Adrian. "How come that you didn't see this, Adrian?"
"Everything is perfect. Andromeda is more than what we thought." Adrian said. "She predicted everything and played with us like we are pieces of chess."
Grisha stood and glared at him deadly.
"Andy my son is a stupid useless man." Grisha let out an exhale. "Do you know that our ancestors killed them in Madagascar? Yes, they found their secret paradise in Madagascar and it's a mixture of Africa or whatever place it is. They killed the Dragons and Phoenix." Grisha said it like he's telling some story. "They killed that little girl named Casandra, the Queen of Dragons. They knew what we are up to in the future." He turned to Yves. "The only thing you needed to do is to get that scroll. But you never have it. You thought that you killed her, but you keep forgetting that they have the Phoenix around that could predict everything. And now, Dragons could predict it."
"I don't want to be the heir, starting back then," Adrian said softly. Grisha turned to him as his chain clings. "I don't want to ruin other's people's lives. I just want to be who I am." He exhaled. "We deserve this. We ruin their family. We killed their people, family… Father, I watch you kill a man in front of me. I watch you kill a family in front of me. But Andromeda never did the same to us. If she would be so cruel, she would already end our bloodline. But we are still alive on this day. It's Christmas…" Adrian exhaled. "They are probably having family time together with their heirs and heiresses and we are here stuck because of what we did. I think those assassins couldn't make it here."
Ivana stopped from weeping. After listening to her brother, she now understood everything. That's why Alanis would never like her or even love her. Or Steven who chose a Phoenix over her. It's all because of how they are raised and their beliefs.

Moira packed up everything also the brochure for her wedding.
"You ready?" Alanis asked and peeked at her.
"Yes." She pulled her LV bags. Alanis frowned a little.
"Why do you have so many bags?"
"Dresses, guns, and s.e.x toys and kinky outfits!" She told. Alanis gulped hard and then he stared at her for a while.
"You didn't forget the chargers of our s.e.x toys?"
"I wouldn't forget it!" She winked and then they went downstairs. Alanis bring three maids and three butlers with them to carry their bags and helped with other things.
Soon, they arrived at the mansion and it's like a castle. Thrust men of Dmitri, Freya, and Fin are also present to secure the whole mansion and there are the trusted agents of the Dragon Empire.
She was greeted by them and she nodded as their butlers and maid took their bags upstairs.
"Wow, looked at those babies." Moira looked at Zendaya playing with Athena and other babies. "There are additional unfamiliar babies."
"Those are from Sabrina's squad."
Moira stopped.
"Sabrina is here." Moira crossed her arms and Sabrina is laughing with Andromeda as they sipped wine. She turned to her fiancé and crossed her arms. Alanis is smiling as he looked at Sabrina. She punched him hard and he groaned in pain. "I am breaking up with you." She walked away.
Alanis hold his abdominal and watched her walked away. Then Gabriel approached him.
"I think you should stop staring at my wife. You already had a Mondragon with you." Gabriel threatened. Alanis laughed and patted his arm.
"I am too in love with my darling. I am just admiring the girls. Nice seeing you here."
"You, too," Gabriel said nonchalantly. Alanis ran off to search for her. He found her on the garden sulking. She's sitting on the grace in front of the pond.
"Darling," He called. "I am not in love with her."
"Sure, you are." Moira scoffed. "I should've known that you just like me because I am a Mondragon and every Mondragon have similarities."
"What are you talking about?" Alanis picked her up.
"Let's break up." She said and then she wiped her tears.
"Why are you so sensitive?" He patted her head and scooped her face.
