Chapter 18

Lucifer's Estate.

Alexander had to admit that this was probably the longest and best sleep he had in recent months. He felt wonderfully refreshed and rested, much to his own joy. Yesterday was a really tough and hard day, not to mention it had brought a couple of changes in Alexander`s life, but not unpleasant at all. Because he could never call his new daughters Illya and Sakura unpleasant ,no he would never even think about it, especially after he glanced at his sides to see both of them sleeping, using Alexander`s shoulders as pillows for sleep. Both were completely at peace and had even blissful smiles on their faces. Even Alex couldn`t help but smile at them and pet their heads caringly. Sakura responded with a whispering whine, while Illya nuzzled closer and hugged her papa tighter.

Both of them were so different and yet had many similarities as well. After Alex took care of all the clothing and house arrangements, along with cleaning up Sakura from those worms and nightmarish memories, both girls revealed their real selves.

Illya was an energetic and upbeat little bundle, easily excitable and with a bit of temper, but very kind and caring none the less. She was active and didn`t like to stand around without doing something, but she did enjoy when Alex was holding her and playing with her or petting her head, like now. And she also had the appetite that could put to shame both Arturia, who was a pretty much a glutton, and Koneko with her sweet tooth. But that wasn`t anything surprising, considering that Illya was a Dragon, even if in human`s form, and she was growing, so she needed a lot of food. Not to mention that she was really strong, as her hug was equal to Koneko`s hug strength, and that`s her not even trying.

Sakura, on the other hand, was a bit shy and timid girl, getting scarred when not around someone whom she knew. She was also kind-hearted and caring as well, but she was not as excitable as Illya, preferring to be a bit more reserved and act in accord. Still, she didn`t feel herself safe when not around someone whom she trusted and cared for, like Alex and Illya. When Alex told Sakura that he won`t give her away in orphanage and adopt as his own, she really did cry on his shoulder, hugging her new daddy. Illya was on cloud nine when she learned that Sakura will be her little sister and slightly scared Sakura by her upbeat personality and response, but once Illya saw that Sakura was a little shy, she calmed down and started acting like a big sister, caringly and patiently. And Sakura quickly warmed up to her and Alex.

Both girls also have formed friendly relations with Grayfia, as she really did enjoy the two girls and cared about the children no less then Alex. Raynare also became a quick friend with Illya and Sakura, being awed by their cuteness. As for Rias… His future bride has made it clear that she will tolerate them and even tried to get along with Illya and Sakura. But, much to her own dismay and chagrin, her attempts resulted in Illya biting her hand for scaring Sakura. Alex, unfortunately, was forced to scold Illya for such behavior, but that was only upfront, as he did praise her for being protective about Sakura and not giving into Rias` attempts to befriend.

Come to think of it, now Alex has remembered that there was something off about this whole situation. Alex searched up in his memory and remembered that he sent Sakura and Illya in their shared room, connected to his, while he was in his own room. And then he recalled that he trouble with getting any sleep, but then he simply began sleeping like log. But he was sure that girls were in their room, so…

Caringly petting both of their heads, Alex called to both of them.

"Illya, Sakura, it`s time to get up, sleepyheads." Alex caringly called to them, getting a combined whine and retort.

"Five more minutes…" Both of them responded at the same time, giving Alex a chuckle.

"If we don`t get up now, you`ll both miss your breakfast and cartoons they run at this time." Alex reasoned, getting a reaction from Illya, who shot her eyes up, and Sakura, who rose her head slowly as well.

Both looked highly interested in both, especially Illya, as a growl was heard already from her stomach, making little girl blush a bit in embarrassment. Alex chuckled and placed on both of their heads morning kisses.

"Good morning, girls." He greeted both of them properly.

"Good morning, papa/daddy." Illya and Sakura retorted, and then an angry whine was heard and Alex turned to where it was heard.

Alex looked pass Illya and saw lying on the floor stark naked Rias, sleeping, but clearly very uncomfortably. He wondered just how did she ended up on the floor like that and decided to ask his girls about it.

"Girls, is this yours doing?" Alex asked with no anger, but with an amusement in his voice. "And why are you not in your beds, young ladies?" Both Illya and Sakura widened their eyes as their daddy remembered they were supposed to be in their beds.

Sakura was first to break.

"W-We were lonely and we didn`t want t-to sleep a-alone. I-It felt s-scary sleeping without daddy." Sakura looked like she was about to cry, but Alex simply hugged his younger daughter.

"Aw, Sakura, if you wanted to sleep with me, you should just asked and I would allow you two." Alex cheered his little girl, getting a pout from Illya, as she wasn`t getting papa`s attention.

Alex caught a glimpse of his older daughter pouting and hugged her as well, making her change her face from pout into one of smile. Alex then decided to ask his older daughter directly.

"Illya, did you push Rias out of the bed?" Alex looked in surprised face of his daughter and he smirked a little. "Ow, so it really was you? Your eyes can`t lie, little sweetie." Alex ticked his little girls, getting a giggle out of them.

Once Illya calmed down, she spoke firmly.

"She was clinging to papa and not allowing us to sleep with you." Illya was defending herself and Sakura. "She said that Sakura and I should get used to our own rooms and not claim papa for themselves, as she was papa`s future wife." Illya huffed and puffed. "So I moved her away from papa."

Alex mentally sighed and made a note to give Rias a piece of his mind for such treatment of his daughters. Not only did she insult them and scarred Sakura, but to so rudely send away little girls after they`ve been through nightmare… Another good reason to kill Rias for him. Alex petted Illya`s head and kissed her forehead.

"Great job, Illya." Alex praised his daughter for actions. "I`ll tell you what: as my apology for not seeing your want to sleep with me and thanks for removing her out, I`ll buy both of you something really sweet. Does that sound good to you?"

Both girls nodded eagerly and hugged their daddy, with Alex hugging them back. He may`ve just adopted them both, but he damn sure loves both of them and if anything were to happen to them…

"Do I get something sweet too~?" Suddenly, Alex was forced to turn to Rias, who was looking with seductive smirking and revealing her absolute nakedness, awaiting his response. "Don`t you think it`s only appropriate to treat all of your girls equally?"

"Actually, I do think so." Alex suddenly agreed, drawing Rias` and his daughters` surprised looks, while he was mentally casting a teleportation circle beneath Rias. "Only problem is that you are not one of them." And with that, teleportation circle appeared underneath Rias and she immediately fell in to it.

"Um, daddy?" Sakura drew her father`s attention. "Where did she go?"

"Don`t mind me, but I too would like to know to which marsh did you subjugated her to?" Lucifer appeared as a ghost.

"Oh, nowhere to worried about." Alex simply replied. "I simply set her where she could buy some clothes to herself. Do you remember that pretty shop we were yesterday?" Both nodded, Lucifer booming with laughter at a sheer thought of Rias Gremory, stark naked in a boutique and without a single yen to pay for clothes.

"Oh, I wish a could see the bitch`s face when she… Boy, I think you`ve missed on this one." Lucifer got a bit serious. "I mean, doesn`t that mall opens up at 10 Am.?"

'Really? Aw well… At least I got rid of her for a moment. After my last upgrade of my barriers here, there is no way in Hell she can get here through teleportation." Alex reasoned. 'By the way, I forgot to ask you about something.'

"Ask right away, kid." Lucifer said.

'On Devil`s scales, how well do you think I fare at my current strength? I would like to know at what level I stand at the moment.'

"Hm… With your current powers as a Nephilim, I would safely place you in the lower part of mid-tier Ultimate Devil-class, considering that you have 8 wings, which should be comparable to those." Lucifer reasoned. "10 wings would be enough to go up against a Satan-class at your level, but not the current 4 Satans. As for 12… I would consider you ready to give one hell of a beating to most creatures in this world, but ultimately, you would be practically reaching my previous power level, which would be enough for you to battle against Sirzechs in his true form, but I do have my doubts about you winning it."

'What`s with that "True Form" you`ve just mentioned? Is it some sort of his transformation?'

"Yeah, it is. It`s a forbidden form that Zekram once discovered after I`ve granted him permission to use Power of Destruction. Basically, this form is the living embodiment of Power of Destruction and it increases Sirzechs` powers to the point when he was 10 times stronger than I was when we battled." Lucifer explained. "Don`t get the wrong idea of Sirzechs` overwhelming power. The single reason he was able to defeat me is that I was exhausted after battling God and if I were at my fullest, even without my Nephilim powers that God took away, I would`ve taken care of that snob no problem."

'Well, then I`ll just have to become even stronger then you, gramps, if I want to defeat Sirzechs.' Alex reasoned. 'This means that I got to get to work on my new powers.'

"I`m surprised to hear that you are planning to fight Sirzechs eventually." Lucifer responded to that. "You never said anything about it up until now. And just what`s your reason to battle the current Lucifer?"

'Reason? That guy has sold my mother to Phenex family, but before he kept her as nothing more but a criminal. He allowed that rotten house to rape and abuse my mother and not to mention that Riser eventually killed her. And now I`m forced to eventually marry his little sister, reinforcing his own status.' Alex angrily explained his reasoning. 'I don`t give a damn if he calls himself a Lucifer or not, but when someone messes with me and my family, that`s when I do give a damn and get serious. I don`t care if he was trying to do the good thing or not, I don`t even care if he justified it or not. What I do care is that this crimson-haired bastard thinks he has the right to dictate me how to live, not giving a damn for what he did to my mother. Are those good enough reasons for you?'

"More than enough." Lucifer understood his grandson very well. "I can relate to that myself. Don`t worry, with your determination and sheer potential, you`ll be able to catch up to him with no problem. Only thing that`s required is patience and determination. Even if your Sacred Gear has been destroyed, I`ll be more than happy to help you out, but not at the moment. For now, you should carry on with patience and determination."

'I`ve got both in abundance, believe me.' And with that, Alex rose from his bed with his daughters and walked out of the room with them.

On route to Kuoh Academy. 2 hours later.

After a breakfast and watching cartoons on the TV , Alex ,his daughters and Raynare were now on their way to Kuoh Academy, where he was kindly requested to come by Sona, or, more specifically, by Serafall and Sirzechs. He was even suspended from the lessons and given a legitimate excuse for such, so he couldn`t complain and was simply moving with his daughters, who didn`t want to stay home and were very persistent on letting their daddy show the town. Plus, he did have to buy something sweet to them, after all, so on their way they stopped by and he picked up the ice cream for them, fulfilling their promise. And now both were happily licking it away, Illya concentrated on her vanilla, while Sakura was focused on her chocolate one.

Honestly, he was glad that he was given a day off from school and he wasn`t too worried about him getting a bad rep or decrease in his marks. His marks were all perfect, scoring at the same position as Sona. To tell the truth, he could easily pass all of the exams for second and even third years of Kuoh Academy, all because he already had the entire program covered and recovered when he was back in Russia, due to his eidetic memory and his father, who did get his son a lot of knowledge and stuff to work with. Seriously, the only reason Alex was basically in the Academy was the fact that he needed to socialize more and be a far more open person. That and the fact that he wouldn`t have anything to do in his free time, but that problem was already fixed with his daughters here. They`ll probably demand a whole lot of attention and Alex wouldn`t mind giving it to them. After all, they are his daughters, and if anyone wishes to say otherwise, then he`ll introduce those unfortunate ingrates to Frostmourne`s pointy end.

As Alex was already crossing the school grounds, he could clearly hear all the talk and whispers addressed about him and whom he was walking with. Good think that Sona managed to alter the memories of everyone in the school, so there was no need to hid his new looks. Raynare, in her human form, was staying relatively far away and was subjugated to those rumors. Alex already was hearing the girls talking about him:

"Oh my gosh! It`s the Silver Prince walking with two cutie little girls with him! Look how adorable they look!

"Hold it, why are those two clinging to him so much? Are they his sisters or what?"

"I don`t know, but my do they look absolutely charming! I think I`m in love~!"

"They look more like a young father walking with his daughters! I don`t know about you, but that makes him even sexier and hotter in my book!"

"My, what sight to behold!" Suddenly, before Alex appered the Queen of Perverts, Aika Kiryuu, eying him and his daughters with her glasses. "I never took you for a father material, Black, but damn… Did you adopt these tow cutie pies or are you simply taking a partake job as babysitter?"

"The former." Alex relied, surprising Aika to no end. "And I would really appreciate if you don`t spoil their little adorable heads with your ideas, Kiryuu."

"Don`t worry, I`m not like those three freaks. I know my limits and when it comes down the family, I tend to shut myself up." Kiryuu honestly responded. "But, seriously, to adopt… You do realize what happens when girls find out about it?"

"I can imagine, but I don`t actually care, as long as it doesn`t affect Sakura and Illya." Alex petted their heads. "And when it does, then whoever involved might expect some serious trouble."

"I can see that." Aika nodded. "Also, I should probably tell that on the resent popularity poll the girls have chosen you as our new Prince Charming. Congrats on that."

"Yare yare daze…" Alex simply sighed and continued moving forward.

And as he did…

"Damn this bastard! First he gets all the girls` attention by looks, and now with those cute little gals?! Die you Casanova!"

"Doesn`t he have enough attention already?!"

"I bet he is totally into ultra-loli department!" Now, that was a very familiar and irritating voice of Matsuda.

"Hot damn yeah! But I wouldn`t mind taking a closer look at those two cherries!" …backed by equally annoying Motohama, ogling on Illya. "Uh, I`m so gonna smackin on my junk today…"

And that that moment the air in the entire town just became filled with a killing intent. Alex could deal with shit thrown at him, that`s nothing for him. But… To openly ogle and perversely think about his daughters… That was something that couldn`t be overseen…

As Perverted Duo was planning their activities, Issei came closer to Alex to say hi and Alex used this opportunity.

"Issei, be a friend and look after my girls here for a minute." While Alex was speaking nicely, even Ddraig was terrified at the amount of death in his sentence. "I`ve got some… education to reign upon certain people."

And with that, Alex set out towards Matsuda and Motohama. Issei looked down on to Alex`s little daughters and decided to stick close to them. Of course, he could feel just what Alex was going to do to both of them and he honestly wasn`t pitying them in the slightest. Some part of him was grossed out by the fact they would fantasize about so little girls, but most of him was simply not giving a shit about it. Seriously, ever since Issei has made his deal with Ddraig and became a full-fledged Dragon, he wasn`t as perverse or rapey as he used to be, far more focused and determined. He had suspicions that turning into a Dragon might affect his personality and view on the world, but to completely reverse from being a pervert was something he didn`t plan doing at all, but in the end, it did come in handy and did well on Hyoudou, as it was evident from the start.

In physical plan, Issei`s body changed completely and he almost didn`t recognize himself at first: he got a higher, reaching Alex`s 182 cm. now; muscles got really worked up and far more developed; his face became more sharper and his hair line extended a bit and was reaching the same level as Sirzechs`, along with bright red color showing off there as well; all of Issei`s senses were much more powerful and sensitive, being able to smell anything in several dozen meters or hear a flapping bird far away and find her with his own vision. But the most interesting a drastic physical change came in form of his own dragon scales, which practically covered his entire body and were reaching up to the face, creating a natural protection on his body and giving him quite the durability as well. Issei`s strength went up to a whole new league, along with his endurance, which allowed him to exercise far more and tougher than before. Seriously, those exercises that Rias set for him were now child`s play. He was actually thinking about asking Alex to grind him up a bit, because he knew that he was a training freak and even without Galeran, that guy wasn`t going to stop pushing himself.

As for his personality, Issei discovered that his mind was now far more focused when he needed it to be and wasn`t wandering off to girls and perverted thoughts as before. He wasn`t as hell bent on seeing boobs and naked ladies, like at all. There was a shift in his personality toward his aggressiveness, such as Issei became more aggressive and he had to contain his anger in check, like when Matsuda and Motohama were bugging him without serious reason. He was just a little away from smashing their skulls together and sending their dead bodies to the river. And he almost did so when they started fantasizing about Asia, which resulted in Issei yelling them off away. Just the nerve those two had to think about his Asia… And that`s where the most frustrating and interesting part came in along: Issei began to look at Asia completely differently, not as his little sister, but as a girl, like a very, very attractive and intoxicating girl. Just one smell of her was almost driving him crazy, being alone with her was seriously a testament to his tenacity and patience, and when she was getting affectionate with him… It forced Ddraig to punch his host in order to prevent him from making a serious mistake in his life. Really, she was practically the most beautiful and sexiest girl in his life now. Just one look at her and…

Issei snapped out of his daydream and saw that Raynare was now standing along with him, while the girls were simply totally focused on their ice creams. While they did have bad blood between them in the past, right now he was totally cool with the Fallen Angel and had no problems whatsoever to begin with.

Raynare was the first one to speak up.

"Hey, do you know where did Alex and those douches go?" Fallen Angel asked right away, forcing Issei to look around and… not find them anywhere.

"Huh, come to think of it, I didn`t even notice them leave until now." Issei admitted, until his hearing and nose began to search for them. "Wait, I think they are in the basement and… Oh man…" Issei paled significantly.

"What? Are hearing something?" Raynare asked him.

"Yeah… And now I think I`m scarred for life." Issei replied with a gulp. "Damn… What he just did to them was just…"

"You know, if you keep saying stuff like that, then I`ll only get more curious." Angel pointed out. "Just what the hell did Alex to them?"

"Honestly? I think he went full Inquisition on them." Issei said. "And I mean like not one in Dragon Age, but like that one from Spain, only 3 times worse."

Raynare understood that one perfectly and nodded, gulping as well.

"Okay that explains quite a lot." Raynare decided to change the subject. "So, how`s life treating you? Being a dragon now must be pretty new to you."

"Well, to be fair, I`m really glad that I did that deal with Ddraig and now I feel like I`m who should be." Issei replied. "Seriously, never even realized it, but not being obsessed with boobies and girls feel nice, along with having one hell of a stamina now."

"Wow, never thought that I would hear those words coming from you." Raynare was serious. "I thought that the moment you would become a dragon the entire female population of this town would be in danger, because that aura of yours now seriously drives all those girls towards you. They may not see it, but I can clearly feel it in the air. If I wasn`t interested in Alex, would`ve actually asked you out on a new date."

"Really? I thought you didn`t like our first one." Issei reminded her.

"Well… Truth to be told, I did have a blast of a time with you and the single reason I actually said otherwise was because… I didn`t wanted to admit it myself at the time." Ray admitted. "Can you do us both a solid and not tell about?"

"Sure thing." Issei dissed it, seeing Alex coming their way. "Oh look, he is all done already."

Alex came in closer to both Raynare and Issei, along with his daughters who were still not finished up their snacks. He looked at both of them and asked directly.

"Something wrong?"

"Nope." Both replied without hesitation.

"Hm…Okay." Alex dissed and looked down at his daughters. "So, were you two behaving while I was busy?"

Illya and Sakura both looked up to their daddy and nodded anxiously. Alex smiled to their happy faces and placed kisses on their foreheads and took them by hands.

"That`s my girls." He praised them both. "Now, let`s go. I`m sure auntie Grayfia would love to play with you, while daddy finishes up all the boring stuff with grownups." And with that said, the group went directly towards the Occult Research Club building, while Issei went towards his own classes.

ORC cabinet.

As the group was about to enter the cabinet, Alex could already feel that 2 Satans were already there, along Rias, Akeno, Sona and Grayfia, but there was also another interesting source of energy. It was quite a bit weaker than the rest of them and it wasn`t refined or trained, more akin to a natural source within a young being. And this source was of demonic energy, very similar to Gremory and Lucifer at the same time. Lucifer clicked in, also sensing it.

"Hm… It feels like someone with both Lucifer and Gremory blood." Lucifer reasoned. "It must be Millicas, Grayfia`s son and your cousin."

Alex silently agreed with that one and entered the cabinet, looking at all the people that have gathered here. As he sensed, all of the people were present there, along with a small addition. Near Grayfia stood a little boy of roughly the same age as Illya, dressed in noble clothing and with his most distinct features being red crimson hair and almost silver like eyes, but still with light blue in them. The kid and Alex looked at each other, while Lucifer also examined the child as well.

"That`s my grandson alright." Lucifer simply chuckled light heartly.

Alex was the first to break the silence.

"Lady Serafall, Sirzechs." Alex nodded to them both, getting the same response, while he also looked at the little guy. "I believe we weren`t introduced. My name is Alexander Lucifer of Houses of Lucifer and Lucifuge."

"Nice to meet you. My name is Millicas Gremory." Millicas bowed to his older cousin, getting a bow from Alex as well. "I was told that you are my cousin, so I`m really glad to meet you!"

"Pleasure is all my, bro." Alex petted the kid`s head, before turning his attention to Sakura and Illya who were looking at the boy with curiosity. "Oh, how rude of me. Millicas, I would like you to meet these charming young ladies. My dear daughters, Illya and Sakura." Both of the girls jumped on the place when Alex spoke like that.

Millicas turned to both of them and bowed like a real life gentleman before both of them.

"It is nice to meet. I`m Millicas Gremory and it`s my pleasure to meet you." Both of Alex`s daughters flashed up red at the cute response, but then relied with a bow as well.

"T-the p-pleasure is all m-mine, M-Millicas." Illya responded flashing red.

"P-please t-take c-care o-of u-us." Sakura shyly responded.

Alex couldn`t help but mentally chuckle at their reactions. These two girls have been simply too much to handle in moe department already, but now…

"SO ADORABLE~!" Lucifer was literally squalling like a small girl and smiling like an idiot. "CAN`T… TAKE… ANYMORE~…" And with that, formerly 5th Strongest Being in the World… fell onto the floor and was in knockout from sheer moe.

Alex was at a full agreement with his grandfather at this one as it was easily the most adorable thing he ever saw. Still, he had kept his head cool and there were far more important matters to discuss, so Alex taken a look at Grayfia, who was also smiling at this whole situation.

"Why don`t you three go and play outside?" Alex drew the attention of the kids. "Kids shouldn`t spend their free time listening to adults talking about boring stuff, right? You should go out and have fun while you have the chance, am I right, Grayfia?" Alex decided to go with cunning maneuvers and Grayfia understood the hint.

"Yes, that is correct." Grayfia agreed and took her son and the girls. "I shall watch over them, while you conduct your business and negotiations."

All parties simply nodded and let the kids and Grayfia be on their way. Alex was glad that both girls could make a friend, even if it was a son of the man who sold his mother to Phenex family. As the matter of affect, Alex wasn`t thinking of Millicas as a Gremory, whom he simply began to dislike completely, but more as a Lucifer member and Grayfia`s son. After all, Alex could feel that Millicas did have their grandfather`s blood in him and a familiar sense of Power of Annihilation in him, most probably inherited from Grayfia. And if nurtured with care and practice, this kid could one day give his father a hell to remember.

As the door closed up, Sirzechs turned everyone`s attention to himself as he spoke.

"I must admit, I wasn`t expecting you to be so good in handling the kids, especially at their age." Sirzechs sounded surprised.

Alex turned to Satan and spoke in his serious disposition once again.

"I may`ve been orphaned, but that doesn`t mean that I don`t know how a real father should act." Alex responded. "My own father has taught that if a man can`t keep his kids happy and safe, then he simply no man at all."

"Those are some interesting words to use, especially for a Fallen Angel." Sirzechs pointed out.

Alex honestly felt like he was insulted, or rather, his father was insulted. Alex knew all about Azazel`s previous harems, but he also knew that his father was faithful to his mom and that whatever was the case, he always had the time for his family, despite being the Governor General of the Fallen Angels. And he made a god damn great work on being a father, that was for sure, as Alex remembered with love all those moments he, Lucina, mom and dad were together, like a true family. Those were some of the happiest moments of his life and when he finally reunited with his dad and sis, they were honestly crying when they saw him. Seriously, no one has ever seen Azazel cry like that before, hugging his long lost son. After that Azazel did the best in his power to make it to Alex for not finding him and letting Lucia die. Alex never felt any animosity to his dad for mom`s death, not even for a moment. Instead, he greatly respected and loved his father, along with his younger sister Lucia and he honestly wished to repay them both for basically giving him the second chance at life. That`s why he didn`t resulted to their help when he became a Devil, for it would cause a major trouble for both of the parties. Along with that, Alex didn`t wanted to cause trouble at all to Fallen Angels, as they were his race as well. So, after hearing Sirzechs speak like that about his father was a bit irritating and infuriating, but Alex managed to contain his anger and simply walked to the coach and sat in it, Raynare standing behind him, while Rias was at her usual place, with Akeno behind her, Sona and Satans on the opposite side of the table that separated them from Alex. The Satans sat as well, while Sona remained standing. Alex was the first to begin the talk.

"Let`s cut to the chase." Alex began. "All our time is precious and I don`t feel like wasting it on minor chit-chat. What is it that you wished to discuss with me?"

Serafall was the first one to speak, in her serious mode this time.

"Very well." She began. "First of all, I would like to personally thank you, Alex, for saving my little sister Sona. If it wasn`t for your sacrifice, I don`t even know what I would be doing right now…" Serafall was true in her feelings.

Ever since that little talk in Sitri`s vault, Serafall was far more considerate about Sona`s feelings on the public and was restraining herself from acting like she used to. She loved her little sister very dearly and couldn`t even imagine what would happen if she had lost Sona, her little sister and dearest person in all her life. The fact that she did die almost drew her to the point of breaking down, but once she learned that Alex performed a Reincarnation to bring Sona back, sacrificing a very good portion of his own life… Serafall simply hugged her little sister tightly and ended up crying out of sheer happiness and the fact that he sister was safe. And along with that, she actually began to feel a strong attraction to Alexander, which was present even before all of this, but after what he has done… Serafall was really, really sad and pissed that Rias has used her own position and Alexander`s situation to get him as his fiancée. Not to mention that Sona was also broken after she learned of that and Serafall was there to comfort her, acting as a big sister towards her. Just the fact that Sona was crying was enough for Serafall to sparkle Rias into oblivion, but it wouldn`t do any good… Unless she was found out.

Alex simply nodded to that and replied.

"It was nothing, really." Alex replied. "I couldn`t simply let Sona and Akeno die there just because they were caught in my own battle with Gilgamesh. Besides, it was exactly why I`ve learned the Necromancy in the first place."

"Still, the fact that you`ve used a forbidden art is quite troublesome." Sirzechs pointed out. "I`m sure you can understand that usage of Necromancy was prohibited for a very good reason."

"I`m fully aware about Sodom and Gomorrah." Alex spoke surprising both Satans. "And I`ve already informed you both that I`m a practitioner of Reincarnation, not Reanimation. And that comes at a very high price, which I gladly paid for saving Sona and Akeno. And if push comes to shove, I won`t hesitate to do so again."

"That is very admirable of you, but I highly suggest that you refrain from such actions. After all, you and Rias are destined to be wedded after your school graduation." Sirzechs reminded with a smile, trying to ease up the tension, but he did the opposite.

"I would rather not talk about it at the moment." Alex replied sharply. "Also, I know that this meeting isn`t just about me being a practitioner of Necromancy. Is this about me being a Nephilim and about my Fallen Angel lineage?"

Sirzechs and Serafall looked at the serious expression on Alexander`s face and they both had to admit that he was just as smart as Rizevim, if not smarter.

"Yes, that is also the topic we came here to discuss with you." Serafall spoke. "Alexander, I believe you do understand that Nephilims aren`t something we can simply ignore and we have to be very careful with. Especially considering that the last one was died nearly 27 centuries ago. I believe, you do understand what power Nephilims possess?"

"Yes." Alex simply said it. "An ultimate command over the Demonic and Holy energy and being immune by both elements, along with the capacity for great growth in power. After all, Nephilim is essentially a basis for both Devils and Angels, being capable of serving each one of the races and rise through the ranks within. If you are concerned about where my allegiance is, I can tell you that I have no intention of siding with either Heaven or Grigori. I`m a Lucifer`s Heir and as such I know that my path lies with Devils, that`s why I stand with you."

Serafall was relieved when she heard that. Sirzechs decided to ask something that has been on his mind all this time.

"Still, there is a certain matter that concerns all of us here." Crimson Satan reminded. "Alex, while the matter with your mother has been settled, there is still the fact that we have no knowledge of an identity of your father, which is why…"

"My father died not long after my mother was killed." Alex sharply replied, lying on the run. "I was taken in to the Grigori when Baraquel found me in Ural Mountains. He recognized me as a son of his long dead comrade and took me in. After that I`ve met Governor General and was placed under a protection of Grigori as son of Fallen Angel. They weren`t aware of my mother`s lineage and believed me to be only a half-human and half-Fallen."

"Hm… That explains why Azazel decided to entrust you the command over his operatives and why he agreed to assign Raynare as your servant." Sirzechs admitted. "Very well, that settles the matter at the moment. And now, I believe it`s time for the real reason why we`ve called you out here." With a simple gesture of a hand, on the table materialized a small box with the Lucifer`s personal crest on it. "I believe that this is yours."

Alex looked at the box and opened it up without hesitation. There, lied something he didn't expect to see so soon. A white chess set with 15 pieces, excluding only the King piece. Alex knew exactly what those were.

"Evil Pieces." Alex said. "Does that mean that now I`m officially a High-Ranking Devil with the right of building my own Peerage?"

"Yep, that`s how it is." Serafall cheerfully admitted. "But, before you go at it, there is certain procedure to be carried out here. You see, this set is absolutely free of all magical properties and can`t be used properly. In order to make them your own, you have to infuse them with your own powers and essence, which will…"

"Essentially, I`ll transfer the core of my being into them, creating a magical catalyst that allows the bodies of those whom I choose transform into the same species as I am and also maintain a control over them, since the Evil Pieces will be directly tied to my own being." Alex ended, shocking everyone in the room. "I may`ve lost Galeran, but that doesn`t mean that I didn`t learn anything from him. Energy Weaver has taught me quite well in energy transferring and it`s manipulation, along with how to conduct it. Plus, I`ve studied the usage of magical crystals back in Grigoris and I know their real potential. It was obvious for me from what Evil Pieces are made of and how to best utilize them."

And with that said, Alex simply leaned forward and extended his right hand, generating his own powers and carefully sending it out his energetic properties. In a short section, the white silver energy was infused with the pieces and Alexander`s own set was finally completed. Once he ended, the pieces from white became crystal silver and were now not the same as before. Those weren`t the Pieces used to create Devils. No, these were the Nephilim Pieces. Alexander actually smirked at the fact that now he can potentially create 15 more Nephilims just like himself. And if he were to find out the way to create his own set of Pieces… That was still too much to ask for right now.

Alex looked up at the Satans and Heiresses.

"I believe now it`s done." Alex said. "And from the looks of it, all of the Pieces can create Nephilims instead of Devils. Well, that`s good enough for me. Don`t worry, I`ll be sure to keep my unit in check."

"Alex, I hope you realize just what kind of responsibility lies now with you." Rias finally decided to speak. "Creation of your own Peerage is a very important task for all High-Ranking Devils and each of your members represents you as a whole, along with shows just what kind of a Master you are. It is imperative for you to have capable and strong members, as they will be your greatest weapon and will show not only your own prestige, but also reflect on Gremory household`s as well."

Rias just couldn`t mention that Alex still essentially belonged to her. Well, now with Nephilim Pieces, that wouldn`t be for much longer.

"Believe me, I fully understand that and I know just what people I want in Peerage." Alex smirked and leaned back, picking up the box with him. "As the matter of affect, I already have perfect candidate to become a Nephilim. And she just so happens to be here." Alex glanced back at Raynare. "So, Raynare, how would you like to a Nephilim?" Everyone stared in shock at Alexander`s decision, especially Raynare.

She honestly didn`t expect this one. She, of course, was honored to be a member of the same race as he, but to become his first chosen Nephilim… She simply couldn`t find the right words.

"I-I…" She didn`t know how to respond.

"It`s not a mandatory for you." Alex assured her, standing up with a box and coming to her. "Raynare, you may`ve been sent to me as servant, but I can`t see you as one. I consider you to be one of my closest and most trusted persons in the world. My reasons for choosing you to be a member of my team are my trust in you, fact that we are very close friends and because you are someone who helped me to improve. Without you, I might not be who I am right now and owe you for helping me. For that reason, I give you this choice: choose to become a Nephilim and my trustful companion, or refuse and remain a close friend to me. No matter what you choose, I won`t hold against you any animosity. It`s your life and your choice."

"You do realize that you are capable of forcing her to become a Nephilim, right?" Rias asked. "She is bound to follow all your orders and if you command…"

"Rias, this isn`t your matter at all, so don`t get involved." Alex sharply corrected her, bringing a glare from her and Zechs.

"Actually, Alexander." Crimson Satan decided to speak. "There is a very good candidate for your Peerage which I`ve found for you, which I believe will be a perfect Bishop for you." And with that, behind Satans and Sona materialized a familiar looking blond girl, dressed in noble garments. "I believe that you remember Lady Ravel."

Alexander glared daggers at the person that has revealed him the truth about his mother and just what House of Phenex has done to her and him. That little girl also looked at Alex, but with fear and subjugation in her eyes, bowing down her head down. Alex was seriously questioning why would Sirzechs think that deciding for him the members in his Peerage was a good idea? Alex handed the box to Raynare, who willingly took and stood perfectly still, also glaring daggers at Ravel, knowing just what now deceased House of Phenex did to Alex and his family. Needless to say, she really hated those bastards.

"Sirzechs, care to explain, just why in nine Hells would I even consider putting a member of the family, that enslaved my mother and is responsible for her death and my tragic past, as a member of my Peerage, much less a Bishop?" Alex asked directly. "Do you honestly expect me waste a valuable Nephilim Piece for someone like her?"

"Alex." Now it was Rias this time. "As you are aware, the House of Phenex was practically eradicated, save for young Ravel here. And the responsibility for such action lies with your uncle Rizevim, under whose orders her house was eradicated."

"I`m well aware of that and I`m sure glad that it happened." That caused a gasp from Ravel and accusing looks from Rias and Sirzechs. "Is there something unusual to what I`ve just said? Do you honestly believe that after all that her brother and family have done to me and my mother, I will simply let go of that and forgive them? No, in fact, I was honestly wishing to kill them myself. If anything, I would love to thank Rizevim for avenging my mother and reigning justice upon them."

"Do you realize that you are praising a wanted criminal, Alex?" Sirzechs asked of him.

"Oh yes I do." Alex said firmly. "Now, give a very good reason as to why I shouldn`t just finish off the House of Phenex once and for all and accept her into my Peerage?"

Sona decided to add to that one as well.

"I myself would like to hear the reasoning behind such decision." Sona sided with Alex. "According to the rules, Alexander has a full independence in choosing the candidates for his own Peerage and interference in such actions is a violation of our laws. As such, he cannot be forced to take Ravel Phenex as a member of his Peerage unless he himself decides to do so. Not even Great Devils Kings can force him to do so."

Serafall actually smiled to her little sister and nodded eagerly. She herself was against such actions on Sirzechs` behalf and was on Alexander`s side all this time. Sirzechs simply sighed and turned to Alexander once more.

"Very well. The reason for doing something like that is because Ravel`s life is still in immediate danger." Crimson Satan revealed. "Ravel escaped her demise only barely and Rizevim never lets his victims get away so easily. His black swordsman has already appeared near Gremory territory, where Ravel has taken a refuge and we suspect that he simply awaits his moment to strike. Placing Ravel in any other Peerage wouldn`t mean her safety as well, but, if she were to become a member of your Peerage, it would mean that she now officially serves you and obeys all your command, effectively making her death at Rizevim`s command pointless, as she is a servant to House of Lucifer already. Aside from that, there is also the fact that losing her would result in Underworld losing valuable Phenex Tears and many other assets of her family, which will affect us quite negatively."

Alex really could see the reasoning behind Sirzechs` words and understood him perfectly. True, if she were to be a member of his Peerage, she would essentially be his property, a much worse fate then death and a humiliation no less, which would be enough for Rizevim to call off his black swordsman. That action would also secure Phenex`s fortune and powers as well, but still… Alex understood that she wasn`t even born when her mother was abused and she didn`t treat as trash, but the fact that she was speaking so badly of her and laughed at her death… And then, Alex`s head has suddenly produced a very ambitions and interesting idea. This was a pure gamble, but if it could work, then he would be golden for sure. Plus, it would do well for Shirone too.

"Very well, I`m willing to consider her as member of my Peerage." Alex suddenly agreed, causing Ravel snap her head up. "However, if I`m being used as, essentially, her guardian, I require a very solid compensation for that."

"I was expecting that." Sirzechs admitted. "Besides, Serafall and I both owe you for saving this town and dear people to our hearts, not to mention that you are practically a family to us with Rias. What is it that you desire?"

"Stray Devil Kuroka." Alex suddenly said a name of a very infamous Nekoshou. "In exchange for taking Ravel into my Peerage, you will have to pardon Kuroka of all her crimes and free of all charges."

Now, that caused everyone to widen their eyes at Alexander and his immediate request. Alex was expecting this to happen and was prepared to deal with the consequences of his actions, but he was going through with all of that, as this was practically the single chance for Kuroka to finally stop running away and live normally, not as a stray. Alex knew that she wanted to freely walk in city and not be tailed after; she wanted to spend time with her sister and not be forced to look behind her shoulder while doing so. And if that meant getting a hell from Satans, so be it, but otherwise he wouldn`t even think about cooperating with them. He was an underling of Gremory for enough time and if they were trying to use him, then he most certainly deserved to get some compensation for putting up with all their shit. Rias and her family may think that just having a Lucifer as their own member was enough to subjugate everyone, then they were wrong. Horribly wrong.

The first one to speak up was Rias, speaking in shocked voice.

"Alex, just what the Hell are thinking about?! Don`t you have any idea who is that damned creature?! Do you even know what has she done?! No, as Heiress to Gremory and your Master I shall…" Rias was reasoning, before she was forced to stop as she saw Alex`s White Slicer right before her face, extended all the way from his standing point.

"First of all, I do know who she really is." Alex was talking in stone cold voice. "Second, I`m well aware about her being Koneko`s sister and that she killed her former master. Third, but not the least, I`m no longer your freakin Servant, Gremory, and if you think that you can decide for me what should I do, then I`ll be glad to remind you of that fact and be freaking glad that I haven`t killed you for all the shit you`ve been doing to me all this time!"

"Alex!" Sirzechs flared up with a small portion of his power, drawing Alexander`s attention, who dropped his blade. "Just who do you think you are to threaten Rias and demand from us something so obscure!" Sirzechs demanded to know, red energy flashing around him.

Alex decided to respond with himself by flashing up his own power. He released his own fullest power just for a few seconds and then gone back to his normal limits, but it still was more than enough to make a needed impression. He was well aware that everyone here was thinking that his power hasn`t really changed from the last time, but now they all knew that Alexander`s full power now put him into a whole new league then before, making everyone here realize that Lucifer`s line was still very strong with Alexander and even if Gremory wish to subjugate him, they`ll have to do a freaking lot to do so. The first one to recover was Serafall who restored her normal composure.

"So, let me get this straight: if we discharge Kuroka of all her crimes and accusations, you will accept Ravel as a member of your Peerage and place her under your own protection?" Leviathan wanted to clarify, getting a firm nod from Alex. "Well, that settles it." She suddenly declared to everyone. "You just have to bring her here and make her testify for what happened."

"Lady Serafall, what in the blazes…" Rias was about to interject, before being stopped by Serafall herself.

"Sorry, Rias, but my word is the law." Serafall reminded to crimson haired girl. "Besides, I`ve always had a nagging suspicion that Kuroka`s case isn`t as obvious as it may seem and that the fact that Sirzechs just declared her as a criminal without even an investigation was… not very good." Serafall accusingly looked at her colleague. "Do you mind telling us why did you act so suddenly and hastily?"

"There was nothing that I found suspicious and charges were backed up by the family of the murdered." Sirzechs declared.

"Really, Sirzechs? Do you even realize just how that looks like? It looks just like that situation with Lucia and we are still dealing with the consequences of your decision. And now, thanks to that, we possibly have lost a very powerful member of our race all because of you acting without thinking things through." Serafall said to him, sighing. "Alex, do you have a way of contacting her? I would like to hear the story from her words."

Alex simply nodded and pulled out a special crystal and activated it with his magic.

"Kuroka, if you can hear me, I want you to come at my location right now." Alex asked her through the crystal. "It`s about your past crimes. I`ve found a way to get you pardoned."

As Alexander deactivated his crystal, a familiar looking portal appeared and from it walked out familiar looking black cat and behind her followed someone nobody was expecting to see. Behind Kuroka emerged another Nekoshou, dressed in the similar looking kimono, but instead of black, it was white and with light pink. She was near of Kuroka`s height with a nice looking figurine, with well-developed bust line, seductive hips and alluringly looking legs. The girl had white close hair and hazel eyes, the same one as Kuroka`s and Shirone`s. Alex`s eyes widen slightly as he finally recognized that this Nekoshou is in fact Shirone, only her body has… matured, leaps and bounds and she was basically a younger looking white version of Kuroka. Needless to say, Shirone looked absolutely drop dead gorgeous.

Kuroka and Shirone looked around and older black cat looked curiously at her chosen mate.

"Nya, Alex, care to elaborate me, nya." Kuroka asked her future mate.

"Wait… Koneko, is that you?!" Rias suddenly asked the white haired girl. "What the hell has happened to you?! You…you…"

"Nya~." Shirone replied with a small smirk, looking at Rias. "Onee-sama helped me by releasing my blocked chi channels, nya. Nya, I`m sorry to have been away for some time, but the procedure took time, nya."

"Nya, but~…" Kuroka looked at her little sister. "Now, my little Shirone is simply one alluring kitty, nya." Kuroka replied with a smirk. "And that`s not to mention that now she has her full potential unlocked as Nekoshou, nya."

"Shirone, are you feeling well? No problems or discomfort?" Alex asked concerned, but Shirone only shook her head. "Glad to know, it would be sad if there any trouble with a beauty like you." Shirone began to blush slightly, while Alex turned to Kuroka. "Kuroka, Lady Serafall and Sirzechs would like to hear about all the details, regarding the incident with your previous master."

Kuroka turned towards the 2 Satans and eyed both suspiciously, carefully placing herself between them and Shirone in a protective manner.

"And what of it, nya?" Kuroka asked her mate. "If tell them the full story, what do I get from it, nya?"

"About that, how do you look at an offer to join up in my own Peerage?" Kuroka`s ears twitched at what she just heard and she looked with wide eyes. "Can`t promise you a royal life, not at the moment, but I can promise you a good house, freedom of movements and full innocence, along with all the cuddling in the world you want and…"

"Stop, nya~." Kuroka was already slightly panting at the offer. "Very well, nya. I will tell you everything, nya." Kuroka turned to the Satans and began to tell everything from the beginning to the end.

30 minutes later. Outside of the ORC.

After half an hour of explaining and reasoning, Serafall and Sirzechs have finally decided to declare this case as closed and officially pardoned Kuroka of all her alleged crimes and charges. Needless to say that has brought infinite amount of joy to Shirone and Kuroka, as they could now be together as sisters and they hugged it out together, while Alex was looking at both sisters smiling, while Sona also approved and Serafall was sniffing at the moe herself. As all was said and done, now there was only one thing remaining to do. Alexander took the box of his own Pieces and came near of his soon to be members of Peerage. Alex looked at Kuroka and Raynare, who were ready to receive their needed pieces, while Ravel was in her normal mode and was simply waiting her own piece. Sona, Shirone, Rias, Akeno and Satans stood aside from them and watching the ceremony.

Alexander spook, as he opened the box ones again.

"Let's begin." Alex said and turned to Raynare. "Raynare, your skills and versatility in battle make you a powerful opponent to fight against. Your potential is great as well and you have enough power to grow just as strong as a Cadre. So, based on that, what Piece would you like me to give you?"

"W-well, I know that the Queen piece is the best, but…" Raynare was blushing a little. "I would prefer not to be in charge and… I would prefer to be a Pawn instead all other things." That brought up a brow from Alex. "Look, I know I`m not good in leading people and you need someone who is both a fighter and leader as a Queen, but as Pawn I can fight well enough and not worry about being in charge of things…"

"I will admit that I`m surprised at your choice, but I respect it and if it is your choice, then I have nothing against it." Alex took up a Pawn and brought it to Raynare. "In the name of Alexander Lucifer, I reborn you, Raynare, as my fellow Nephilim and my Pawn. From this moment forth, I place you as my vanguard in battles!"

Silver light came out from Raynare and she gasped at the sudden surge of power, absorbing the Pawn Piece inside her own body. In the next minute she stood still and after adapting a little, she spread her newest silver wings. She looked amazed at them, seeing her 2 sets of silver wings, nice and smooth to touch.

"Welcome in to the team, Ray." Alex congratulated her. "Now you are neither an Angel nor a Devil, but one that came before them all."

"I feel… I feel great and so strong." Raynare admitted. "I won`t fail you, Alex. I`ll be your vanguard, my Lord."

Alex nodded to her and came to Kuroka, who was smirking at him and waiting her turn.

"Kuroka." Alex smiled to her, and she answered back. "With you, I know just the Piece you would fit just right." Alex brought up a familiar Bishop piece. "Do you mind becoming my Bishop, or would you prefer any other job?"

"Nya, do you need to ask, nya~?" Kuroka asked him flirtatiously. "But, you`ll need more than a single Bishop to turn me, nya." Kuroka reminded him of her being equal to two Bishops.

"I know, but this one is resonating with far more power than the others." Alex confessed. "This Bishop is my Mutation Piece. Apparently, it, along with many others, mutated when I was infusing it with my own power and is now far more powerful than your previous Pieces. I would say, you are getting an even better deal."

"Nya, go ahead and make yours~." Kuroka seductively stepped closer and allowed Alexander to place a Bishop on her chest.

Alex only smiled to that and began to chant.

"In the name of Alexander Lucifer, I reborn you, Kuroka, as a fellow Nephilim and my Bishop. Weave your spells to strengthen us in battles and reign weakness to our foes!"

With that Kuroka absorbed the Bishop piece and let out a loud gasp. She spread her own wings and looked curiously at her newly acquired 6 silver wings. She touched them and almost purred at their softness.

"Nya, so soft…" Kuroka looked at Alex with grateful smile. "I promise, I will never leave your side or turn my back on you. I`m yours and no one else, my love." She said the last part out loud, getting a loud gasp from Rias, Sona and Akeno.

"I know you won`t fail me, nor shall I ask you to do something against your will." Alex smiled to her and then came to Ravel. "Well, now I have you left, little birdie." Alex said sarcastically.

"Well? What are you waiting for? Go ahead and make your second Bishop, damn it." Ravel demanded, causing Alex to smirk.

"And who told you that I`m making you my second Bishop?" That caused Ravel to widen her eyes at him. "As a spell castor you are hardly an adequate one, not to mention this attitude of yours, and don`t get me even started on the fact that I basically have no nice feelings towards you and your family. I already possess your Flames of Phoenix and even have infused them with my Power of Annihilation. Spending a Bishop piece on someone like you is hardly a wise decision, for I know a couple of mages that can fit the category perfectly. And as for the strategy department, I plan to place my Queen for such dealings, and in the mean time I`ll plan everything out myself."

"What?! You can`t do that! Don`t you know who the heck I am?! You are an ungrateful…" Suddenly, Ravel froze in place, paralyzed and unable to move.

Alex looked at her left and saw Kuroka making an oblivious face, while her hand was holding up the paralyzing spell. She casually turned to her new Master and looked at the work of her hands and spoke in perfectly innocent voice.

"Nya, I`m sorry, Master, nya. My hand must`ve slipped a spell, nya~." Kuroka was making an innocent face, while internally she was smiling. "You won`t punish me for this, won`t you, nya~?"

Alex could only chuckle at her antics. Although, that was most certainly welcomed.

"I`ll think about it later, but do please keep this spell up for moment longer." Alex pulled out a Pawn Piece and brought to Ravel. "In the name of Alexander Lucifer, I reborn you as a fellow Nephilim and my Pawn. Learn humility and respect through hardship and work for others to respect you." Pawn piece was absorbed and Ravel was released from her paralysis.

The first thing that Raven did as a Nephilim was also releasing her wings, which popped out, but she was seriously disappointed as she only got 2 wings. She glared daggers at her new Master.

"How could you make me into a freakin Pawn?! Don`t you know just who I am?! I`m a distinguished heir to House of Phenex and I deserve to be treated as such and I…" And she froze once again, Alex looking at Kuroka.

"Slipped again?" Alex asked her.

"Nya, nope. I`m just educating this little birdie, nya." Kuroka carefree stated. "She could use some serious scolding and, if you don`t mind, I would glad to reign a few lessons in that young little head of hers, nya."

"Mind if I join in?" Ray suddenly asked, drawing a smile from Kuroka.

"Yare yare daze…" Alex simply chuckled to that one. "You are going to teach me this little spell of yours, right?"

Lucifer`s Estate. Later that night.

After a heartwarming and nice dinner, everyone was now in their respective rooms and resting, even Alex, as Rias, for once, has decided to spend a night in her own house in Underworld, along with having a talk with her parents about Alexander and how he treats her. Alex couldn`t care less about what his unwanted fiancée would say, so he didn`t pay the slightest attention to that. Instead, he was more interested in the matters of his own Peerage and his daughters.

Kuroka was surprised to find out that Alex took two little girls as his own daughters, but that didn`t deter her in the slightest and she was only of positive opinion of them. She was lovingly calling both of them 'her little kittens' and Illya with Sakura took a liking to her very quickly. They also took a very fond liking in Grayfia`s son, Millicas, with whom they had a very good time together and when Alex asked both of them about it, even Sakura was very talkative about it along with Illya. When he decided to tease them a little if he should be worried that his little girls were smitten by him, they immediately shut themselves and were muttering something to themselves, while blushing like burning tomatoes. It was clear that both were liking the kid and he didn`t mind that, while being a little concerned about his father. As for Shirone, it was her own decision to develop her body like that and Kuroka helped her. There were no troubles or side effects and it allowed her to develop normally again, as her growth was slowed because of her rebirth as a Devil. If anything, it also allowed the sisters to bond even better, so Alex couldn`t be happier about Kuroka and Shirone.

Alex was simply lying in his bed and thinking about his own stuff, when he suddenly heard a knock in the door. It was a front door in his room, not from the girls` bedroom. Alex rose up and called out.

"Come in." Alex allowed and the door opened.

From the door emerged both Kuroka and Shirone, wearing their clothes and looking both at Alex. Even though it was dark and he didn`t turn on the lights, he could see them in full beauty and could help but be allured by it. Kuroka was the first to speak up.

"Alex, can we come in, nya?" She asked caringly.

"Of course." He permitted to them, seeing a clear worry on their faces. "Hey, what`s wrong? Is something bothering you two?"

Kuroka and Shirone came closer and sat with Alex on the bed. It was clear that both had something on their mind and were a bit worried. Alex could literally feel it coming from both kittens. Shirone was the first to speak up.

"Senpai, we know what you`ve done." Shirone stated. "You`ve sacrificed your life span for others."

Alex knew that this talk was coming up and that Kuroka wasn`t going to be happy about it. That could explain why they were on edge. Now was Kuroka`s say.

"Alex, do you even know what you`ve done?" She asked of him, trembling.

"Kuroka, I…" Alex was about to explain, until he saw Kuroka face to face and… he saw her tears.

The most beautiful and his beloved girl… was crying. Kuroka wasn`t even trying to hold back, instead she allowed herself to cry.

"Do you even know how terrified I was when I heard about?" Kuroka asked of him. "To even consider it, to perform it… Don't know how dangerous it is?!" She shouted at him, sobbing. "What would`ve happened if you failed?! Do you even think about your own life?!"

"I knew what I was doing and…"

"Don`t say that!" Kuroka shouted at him, before launching herself at his chest, crying and sobbing. "If something were to happen to you… Alex, don`t you ever do that to me! I can`t… I can`t simply imagine the world without you… If I were to lose you, I wouldn`t even…" Kuroka was simply breaking down, and then Alex simply took her into a caring embrace.

Alex could never stand his beloved girl crying like that and the worst part was that he was responsible for her tears right now. This black cat has given him her heart and he almost broke it. There was nothing that Alex could do to make her forgive her, but he would never allow her to cry.

"Kuroka, I am sorry." Alex caringly spoke. "Yeah, you are right. I am idiot and I wasn`t even thinking at that moment. All I was focused was bringing back my friends, but I completely forgot about myself. I wasn`t even considering it at the moment, and now… And now I see just what kind of a huge mistake I made. I understand and feel the same way you do, Kuroka, and I don`t what would happen if I had lost you. I am the dumbest idiot that doesn`t even deserve to look at such beautiful goddess like you."

Kuroka continued to sob and brought her teary eyes up to him, face close to his. She smiled to him and spoke.

"You fool, a bloody fool." Kuroka sobbed more. "But you are the fool that I love. The one man I love and shall love forever." Kuroka leaned forward and placed a caring and feeling kiss on his lips.

Alex didn`t stop her, but embraced her and answered on her feelings with his own. He made her cry and he was going to wipe those tears away and make her forget about all the sadness and sorrow. Or otherwise what kind of a man he was. After a passionate kiss, Kuroka pulled out and spoke to Alex.

"Alex, there is something Shirone and I have been discussing." Kuroka turned to her sister.

Alex nodded to them and prepared to listen. Shirone was shifting on her seat, clearly worried about something. Kuroka was the first to speak.

"Shirone told me about you and Rias and how she forced you into a marriage." Alex was about to speak up, but Kuroka stopped him. "Please don`t speak, we know you don`t wish to be her husband and I know your heart well enough, my love. But, that doesn`t mean that we aren`t bothered by it. We both are afraid, to be fair."

"Afraid of what?" Alex asked them.

"Of Sempai… falling for Rias." Shirone responded, blushing. "Onee-sama and I, we… we don`t want to lose you. We… wish to be with you forever. I wish to be with you…" Shirone was nervous as hell.

Alex was at awe at what just Shirone said. Was she… just confessing her feelings to him?! Shirone loved him?!

"K-Koneko, I…" Alex was about to speak, when suddenly he felt white cat`s lips on his own.

He didn`t know how to respond on such bold and yet a little awkward action, but he decided not to let this go wrong. Alex answered on it and caringly embraced her. Shirone, once she felt more confident, became to put more effort and passion in her loving kiss, slipping her tongue into Alex`s mouth and exploring his mouth with her tongue. Alex wasn`t expecting his little kouhai to be so passionate, but he didn`t resist and allowed her to do as her heart wished. For another minute their kiss continued with both moaning in each other`s mouths, but eventually they broke away, Alex didn`t even notice how white Nekoshou placed herself on top of him, her kimono on her sides and even through his boxers, Alex could feel that there was a warm and wet spot between Shirone`s legs. It was clear that she wasn`t wearing her panties at the moment and she was very aroused. In fact, this passionate kiss also made Alex feel very aroused, evident as his pants were feeling a lot tighter and his manhood was reaching to Shirone`s treasured flower. Flustered Nekoshou rubbed herself against it and moaned as she felt like a little lightning went coursing through her. She spoke in ragged voice.

"Shirone…" She said to Alex. "I`m Shirone… Your Shirone. Yours and only yours!" She said passionately. "Please, Alex, I love you! I wish to be yours!"

"Shirone…" Alex saw her pleading eyes wishing for love and answered feelings, but Alex also saw Kuroka and he looked at her. "I…"

"Alex, Shirone and I have reached a certain agreement." Kuroka spoke, leaning closer to him and looking directly in his eyes. "We both are imprinted by you, we long and desire only for you to love us and we can`t accept other Nekomatas putting their paws at you, along with Rias. I love you more than air I breathe, but I also care for my Shirone and I know how one-side love can be painful for our species. We Nekomatas are wild and aggressive species, but we are also very passionate and sensitive. For us, to be imprinted is everything and to not be able to be loved back is the worst torture. I wish not put my dear Shirone through it, so I`ve decided that I will not hold her back with you, my love." Kuroka caringly petted his cheek. "Alex, I know that it sounds very strange, but I ask of you to make us yours. Please, we wish to be your wives."

Alex`s eyes widen as he understood the meaning behind Kuroka`s words. She asked of him to make love not just with her, but also with Shirone. Both of them were looking with loving and pleading gazes. Alex felt the tremble in Kuroka`s heart and how unsettled was Shirone, eyes tearing at the anticipation. They were deeply in love with him and wished to forever be with him. Kuroka already told Alex about Nekomatas` customs and how they were choosing their husbands. And now was just their most sacred and divine ceremony- Nekomata Wedding, one in which lovers embrace each other and pledge themselves not through words, but through passion and love they show each other, giving in their desires and expressing their emotions and love through their lovemaking session. Shirone and Kuroka wished Alex to be their husband and they wished to be his wives. Alex honestly felt conflicted about it for a moment, as he did love Kuroka and wished her to be with her, but with Shirone he wasn`t as long, but he had to admit that he felt passion and wasn`t lying that she allured him, even when she was still in her smaller form, but now… Just one look in their longing and loving eyes and Alex knew what answer to give both of them. And Hell be damned he was sincere in his feelings right, as he did understood what he felt to both of them.

"Kuroka, Shirone… You two are true goddesses and you only deserve the best." It sounded to them that Alex was rejecting them, but he then placed his hands on their cheeks. "I`ve done some serious mistakes in the past, but… right now I know that I do want you both in my life. And I`ll be a fucking last idiot to let you go." That last sentence sealed the deal and both expressed utmost happiness and tears of joy appeared on both Nekomatas` eyes.

"Alex…" Kuroka pulled his face to his and passionately kissed him, letting go only a minute after. "I`m so happy… I feel so happy… I love you."

"Kuroka, I love you too." Alex placed a kiss on her lips again and then looked at tear up Shirone. "Hey, don`t cry, Shirone." Alex leaned closer to her and kissed her with passion and love, Shirone recuperating those feelings.

"Senpai…" Shirone pulled away, looking the happiest. "I love you." Shirone moved a little more and was now hugging him lovingly.

"I love you too." Alex admitted too. "I know I sound like a pig, but I doubt that you want to end it with just kisses."

"Nya, we wouldn`t come if were interested in just that." Kuroka leaned against his back, her breasts pressed against his back. "Like I said, Shirone and I made an agreement. And I`m willing to give up my right of being your first to Shirone." Kuroka confessed, kissing his neck and touching him erotically. "She was very persistent and wished not to give you away, so I backed down. I ask of you to be very gentle with her, for Shirone is a very sensitive and young little kitty."

Alex looked at Shirone for conformation if she was alright with it. Never would he take a girl if she wasn`t ready and now was no exception. Shirone looked up at him and nodded, silently saying that she was agreeing with it. Alex caressed her cheek and placed a passionate kiss on her lips, which she began to recuperate with feeling and passion. Kuroka decided not be in their way moved away, indulging herself with mere watching. She knew that she would get her share of love from Alex and she was willing to wait just a little longer. Despite the fact that her entire body was on fire and she was nearly in her heat, but she was simply observing. For now…

Alex and Shirone kissed for a good time and Alex only pulled away when he needed to breath, looking in hazel loving eyes of Nekomata. Shirone was no longer the little kitten, but a true beautiful cat, and such beauty demanded love. Lucifer moved to Shirone and began to kiss her neck, making young Nekoshou tremble in his embrace. Shirone was panting and breathing raggedly, feeling the pleasure from being so close with her new husband, from his lips on her skin, from the feeling of his strong and caring hands wandering on her body and exploring her developed body. She felt very hot and the heat was almost killing her, so she quickly removed her kimono, exposing her body for Alexander to look upon and explore. Alex pulled away from her and took a moment to observe her and he couldn`t help, but feel even more excited than before, as Shirone`s body was so developed and beautiful, similar to Kuroka`s but younger and still developing, but even now he saw that her body was on par with Rias` and surpassed her in softness of touch and feeling of warmth. Alex looked at flustered Shirone and spoke caringly her.

"Shirone, you are so beautiful…" Alex pulled happy Shirone in another kiss, gently shifting and changing their position.

In the next instant, Shirone was lying on the bed and melting away in Alex`s kisses on her lips and face. He was literally kissing away her tears and previous sorrows, leaving only happiness behind. Lucifer wasn`t satisfied with simply her face, as he moved lower in her body, planting kisses on Shirone`s body along the way, getting Nekoshou to moan and pant raggedly. It wasn`t long until Alex reached to Shirone`s soft bosoms and he decided to pay extra attention to them, placing his left hand on Shirone`s right breast, caringly and lightly massaging it and making Nekoshou moan more passionately. Alex moved to Shirone`s hard nipple and planted a kiss on it, causing the young Nekomata to purr and moan louder, making Alex go even further, beginning to suck and lick Shirone`s beautify cherries, changing from one to another, massaging them and not leaving them without attention. For a very good time, Shirone believed that there were no more pleasures to be found in this prelude, until she shrieked from surprise and pleasure as Alex closed on her lower part. She now was feeling Alex`s mouth kissing and pleasantly licking her womanhood, hands caressing her body and making pleasure more intense. Alex`s tongue was getting inside of her and explored her sacred parts, casing Shirone to scream out loud.

Shirone was feeling like on cloud nine, not holding back on her moans and giving in to the pleasure. The heat and warmth of Alex`s passion was so strong that Shirone didn`t even braced herself when a tidal wave of pleasure went through her entire body, her thighs were wet and blanket was getting soaked even further as Shirone released her juices as she screamed in pleasure and her body was feeling the passionate warmth and excitement. Alexander noticed how Shirone tensed up and only intensified his ministrations, causing Shirone`s release to be more powerful and intense, as Nekoshou screamed his name and arched her back, feeling her body being hit by a lightning. Shirone`s orgasm continued for a minute and once it died down, she dropped on the bed, panting and Alex moved to her, kissing her caringly and with love. Shirone looked with her hazel eyes at her lover and spoke.

"Alex… I`m yours… Make me yours…" She was breathing raggedly.

Alex knew what she meant and he himself couldn`t hold himself in control any longer. He was kissing Shirone and in the motion he removed the only piece of fabric on him. In the next second, Shirone felt how something was poking her in her womanhood and took a look down, he eyes widening at what she saw, but not out of disgust, but out of amazement and excitement, as she laid eyes on Alex`s manhood. She hasn`t seen on before, but even she knew that his was most probably bigger than the most. Alex looked Shirone in the eyes.

"Shirone…"

"Take me… Please…"

Alex didn`t need to ask twice. Slowly, he moved towards his lover and in the next second he could feel Shirone`s flower`s heat and warmth, her entire body tensed up, her eyes half lid. Lucifer was feeling like he was in heaven, but he moved carefully and soon reached her hymen, Shirone reacting to that with a gasp, but she nodded to him to continue. Alex nodded and pulled away from her a little and then moved once again in her, claiming Shirone`s virginity and fully engulfing himself in her. Shirone shrieked and tensed up to the maximum, already tight she was completely in command of her lover. Tears were on her face and Alex saw that she was in pain, so he moved to her and began to plant kisses on her face and passionately kiss her in the lips, letting the pain die away allowing Shirone to adjust to him inside of her. After a minute of soft kisses, Alexander began to move in her, Shirone easing up and letting him to do so, feeling no pain, but pure and utter joy and bliss in what she was doing. Alex and she were making love, she was embracing him and he was fulfilling her. Never in her life had she felt such a joy and happiness. Soon, their slow and careful movements became more passionate and fast paced, Alex moving more aggressively and Shirone locking him with her legs behind him, intensifying their combined pleasure, Alex and Shirone moaning together. They were going at it for another several minutes until both felt that the wave of ultimate pleasure was coming to them both and their moves became more and more fast and aggressive, Shirone pulling her lover closer to her and passionately kissing him, Alex recuperating, not stopping for a second and soon he felt the results of their lovemaking. As Shirone felt her end, she locked her legs around him and made him go all inside of him, causing her to scream out his name as her new orgasm was washing through her body and tightening her wall around Alex. Lucifer couldn`t take it and his release came as well, with a growl he released his seed inside the passionate Nekomata, sending his semen inside her womb and fulfilling her completely. Shirone felt how the hot liquid was pouring inside of her and accepted it with a bliss, staying with Alex like that for a few more moments and kissing, until her body gave up and she released her lover from her lock and allowed him to lie down next to her. Shirone was breathing raggedly and was out of her breath, but she had never felt so well and so complete, closing her eyes and resting from her first lovemaking.

Alex lied next to Shirone, catching his breath and regaining his stamina. He never had imagined that it would feel like this and was pleasantly surprised. His orgasm was powerful and knocked him out a little, but his manhood soon began to tense more as he felt pleasant embrace on him. Alex opened his eyes and saw the ever beautiful black goddess herself, moving like a panther to him and soon reaching his lips, placing a kiss full of love and passion. Alex had never felt as much passion and feeling from Kuroka before and couldn`t just be idle, so he returned it, feeling that she was absolutely naked already and the heat from her sacred part was even greater then fires itself. After a long and passionate kiss, Kuroka pulled out and looked at him with loving gaze.

"My love…" Kuroka lovingly said, moving it his lips. "Let me relief you…Rest and enjoy…" And with that, Kuroka began her movements on Alexander`s skin.

She started with his lips, passionately and sensitively kissing him, recuperating the kiss, slowly and pleasantly moving down, just like Alex did with Shirone, only Kuroka was moving even more slowly and was concentrating on his skin more than Alex did on Shirone. Each of her movements was a true testament to his endurance, but each and every her ministration was like a bliss and Kuroka was giving Alex a full treatment, as she was slowly and progressively moving lower and lower, kissing and licking Alexander`s developed and strong body. Alex thought that he could handle her, but then he felt a strong jolt through his entire body as Kuroka reached her real goal and was now carefully and slowly exploring it. Kuroka was gentle, as she didn`t go all out in a moment as she reached her target. No, she was going to make Alex enjoy all the way. He lips and tongue were pleasing to Alexander`s manhood, planting kisses and saliva along the shaft and making him feel utter bliss. Kuroka herself was enjoying the session and was fondling her own breasts as well, her vulva dripping wet and the smell of her arousement was all out, just like with her little sister, whose liquids she was tasting and cleaning away. Once Kuroka felt that she had enough, she decided to take it to a whole new level and her mouth moved closer to the tip and in one motion, Kuroka took in Alexander`s manhood, causing him to grip the blankets and his teeth. Kuroka`s mouth was moving slowly and pleasingly, her tongue swirling around and exploring him to no end. Alexander`s endurance and strength was put to limit with Kuroka`s masterful moves. She was going to make Alex feel the heaven and for all the time she waited for him she would get a feel of him herself soon, but now she was pleasing him in different way. Her head was moving slowly at first, but soon her movements became intense and aggressive, like a passionate dance, with tongue swirling like a real hurricane. It didn`t take long for Kuroka to get what she truly wanted as Alex resisted to his breaking point, but soon he was forced to feel the hold of pleasure taking over his body and releasing another portion of his thick semen, only this time it went straight to Kuroka`s mouth. Black Nekoshou was taking it all in, not pulling back or feeling any discomfort, closing her eyes and taking in her lover`s essence. She waited until Alex`s body eased up and she pulled away, having taken all of his essence and not regretting it in the slightest. It was just as she imagined, even better, if that was possible. She saw that Alex`s manhood died down a little, but she knew how to rejuvenate him. With a caring palm, she send a positive energy from her Senjutsu into Alex`s body, restoring his endurance and giving him more than enough power to keep up with her. It was also restoring the stole time of his life, as Kuroka wished for Alex to be hers for as long as possible.

Alex felt the positive affect of Senjutsu on himself and saw Kuroka leaning towards him and kissing him passionately. Lucifer answered to her passion with his own and put his feelings into it, both moaning in each other. Kuroka pulled out and carefully positioned herself above Alex and slowly descended, taking him inside of herself, moaning and almost shrieking out of excitement and pleasure of finally being one with him. She patiently waited long and it was hard for her, but to be able to give herself to him was more than enough of a reward for Kuroka. She took Alex fully in herself, looking down on him and seeing that he wasn`t fixated on her body, but on her eyes and his hands weren`t groping her with no sense, but carefully and steadily stabilizing her, letting her feel more pleasure and less restrain. Even now, he was more focused on making her feel loved and cared. Kuroka simply couldn`t get enough of him, but she would make her lover feel in bliss, as she began to slowly move and use her entire body as channel of her passion. She wasn`t rushing or making it a fast session, Kuroka was moving like a cat, slowly and steadily dancing on her lover, letting him feel more of her and herself allowing to get into upper level of bliss. Her movements were gracious and loving, combined with passion as she was slowly increasing her hip move and after long pleasantry, Kuroka was aggressively dancing on her lover, using his shoulders to steady herself. Both were moaning and panting, unable to separate and not willing to, as they were one. Soon, Kuroka felt how her excitement was beginning to grow to a new level and it was her signal that her limit was close, but she didn`t know about Alex. She learned of that once Alex suddenly pulled Kuroka down to him and kissed her vigorously and passionately, pushing himself all inside of her, causing the Nekomata to give into ultimate pleasure with her lover, as they both released their sacred juices. Their kiss continued for several seconds and after Kuroka felt her body finally calming from the ravaged storm, but fulfilled, she pulled out and looked at her beloved, positioning herself near him, while Shirone was at his other side.

"Alex, I`ve never felt so…" Kuroka simply had no words. "All these years were SO worth it…" She said moaning, getting a kiss from her lover.

"I couldn`t agree more, love." Alex agreed, looking at Shirone who seemed to be ready for a new round. "You two are simply incredible. I won`t let any of you go, I promise." Alex pulled Shirone into a kiss as well, hugging both of his Nekoshou wives.

"We promise to never leave you as well." Kuroka swore. "Shirone and I are willing to let you have many concubines, but only as long as they love you and you love them back."

"And as long as you love Onee-sama and me, Alex." Shirone ended for her sister, resting her head on Alex`s shoulder, just like Kuroka.

"I wouldn`t have it any other way, but there is one thing that I can promise to both of you as well." Alex spoke lovingly. "I shall forever love both of you and never, ever let you feel hurt or lonely. If I`m going to be a loving husband to two Nekoshou goddesses, then I`ll be the damn best one for you."

Both Kuroka and Shirone looked at their husband and kissed him with love in their actions. They were in heaven as they were no longer alone. They had one they wished and desired and he desired them. They gave their hearts to him and he returned their love with his own and passion. Both Nekoshou were in bliss at the moment.

And as young was still young, so was their time and they took it well, spending it with passion and love in each action, until all dropped down together, exhausted and tired, but feeling like in heaven.
