"I accept your proposal, Sir Mitchell." Claire said and stared at Mitchell

"Well then. I'll see you in two weeks. I'll need your assistance in preparing all your travel requirements and living conditions. Please visit me at this address." Mitchell said as he handed both Tina and Claire the address of his mansion before standing up

"Alright. Hatid ko na si Sir Mitchell." Claire said and smiled before staring at Tina

"Sige" Tina said with an intrigue expression

Mitchell and Claire walk outside. Claire is walking a few steps behind Mitchell and she is staring at his back

"Don't stare too much. I'll melt at this point." Mitchell said before opening the gate

Claire blinked and cleared her throat before nodding

"Sorry." Claire said as she watches as Mitchell entered his car

"I'll see you soon." Mitchell said before driving away

"Yes, Sir." Claire said while looking at Mitchell's car driving away

"Lakas ng tama mo dun kay Sir Mitchell ah. Crush mo?" Ronnel said while looking at Claire

"Hm. Totoo." Claire said before blinking fast and hitting her brother "HINDI AH!!" Claire shouted before storming back into the house

"Nagjojoke lang e. Hindi mabiro" Ronnel said while rubbing his arm while looking at the distance

Claire immediately entered her room and hug her pillow while blushing heavily. She screamed while shaking her head

Ronnel and Tina stares at her room with a confused expression

Tina sighs before walking to her computer and started searching about demons again. He viewed the video again and sighs while watching carefully

"Pati yung likod parehas..." Claire said while looking at the video carefully

The video continue playing and a man dressed in black trench coat approaches the man as he throw a bag full of money in the air.

"Lumayo ka sakin! Demonyo!!" The man shouted while gasping for air

"Time's up." The man in black trench coat said

The one taking the video gasped when Mitchell turned around with his red eyes and fangs but the video crashes right after

"Ano ba yan!!! Malapit na e!!" Claire shouted while kicking the air before jumping around

Claire lies on her bed while grunting and hugging her pillow

"Ano ka ba talaga, Sir Mitchell?" Claire said as she stares at the ceiling before closing her eyes

Meanwhile, Mitchell reached his mansion and the massive gate opened after it felt his presence. He entered the grounds and continue driving and parked in front of a fountain

Genesis stares at him while sitting at the fountain

"You really wage a battle against Heaven's enforcer?" Genesis asks while looking at Mitchell

"I don't like that enforcer. He's way too stiff." Mitchell said as he lowered his hair before walking into the mansion

"You know that he won't be able to hold himself, right? He will harass you from every angle." Genesis said as he stares at Mitchell

"That's right and I won't be able to fight back." Mitchell said as he walk through the premises

"What are you going to do then?" Genesis asks while looking at Mitchell

"I don't know. I guess, do my part of the deal." Mitchell said before entering his office

Genesis followed while looking at the wall and smile

"Robert is already there." Genesis said as he pointed at the portrait of Robert in the wall of butlers

"Yeah. He's the 500th one. Maybe I should stop hiring a butler." Mitchell said as he sit on his chair

"That's impossible." Genesis said as he stares at Mitchell

"Why's that?" Mitchell said as he pick a folder

"You don't how to clean, you can't do your laundry, you don't even know how to use the broom." Genesis said as he stares at Mitchell

"I... I know how... I'll learn." Mitchell said while reading the file and signing it

"Can you even learn that?" Genesis asks while looking at Mitchell

"I'll learn." Mitchell said while reading a few more files before completing signing all the files he need to sign

Genesis stares at Mitchell with a soft smile before walking to the window and squint his eyes

"What is it?" Mitchell asks while leaning to his chair

"The sky." Genesis said as he stares at the sky

Mitchell stares out the window and sighs 

"It has begun." Mitchell said as he closes his eyes

"Yeah." Genesis while looking at the sky

Lights has started coming down from the sky and souls are being taken randomly. Several lightning has also crash down killing several mortals

"What do you think is their plan? A mass soul gathering is an ability only a demon could pull." Genesis asks while looking at Mitchell

"Seems like they are trying things out." Mitchell said as he cross his legs

"You're not gonna do anything? If this reach the ears of God, you will be framed for it." Genesis said while looking at Mitchell

"It probably has already reached his ears." Mitchell said as he stares at Genesis

"You're relax about this. It's weird." Genesis said as he stares at Mitchell

"Reacting to it now will make me fall to their trap, is it not?" Mitchell said before closing his eyes again

"With this mass soul gathering, they are really trying to put the blame on the demons." Genesis said as he stares at Mitchell

"You should be more worried about yourself. Your work is being snatched away." Mitchell said while leaning on his chair

"That's right." Genesis said as he sit on the window

Both Mitchell and Genesis felt a strange aura arriving at the gate of the mansion

"What's this? It's weird." Genesis said as he stood up and stares at the gate

"I don't know." Mitchell said as he stood up and teleported in the ground

Mitchell walk to the gate and stopped in front of it before staring at the sky

"So you responded to a threat like that but not with those?" A female said while her footsteps are heard on the cobblestone

"So it's you after all, Aurora." Mitchell said as he shifted his glance to the side

"It's been a while, Brother." Aurora said as she spread her snow-colored wings in front of Mitchell

Mitchell stares at her with a stoic expression before the angel closed her wings

"You're so cold." Aurora said while smiling before walking in front of Mitchell

"What are you doing here?" Mitchell asks while looking at Aurora

"I heard that you made a threat to one of our enforcers. He's just doing his job. You should start doing yours. Father will think of this lightly." Aurora said as she stares at Mitchell

"Does father even know one of her Archangels are here on Earth?" Mitchell said as he stares at Aurora

Aurora stares at him with a surprised expression before rubbing her cheeks

"Didn't think so." Mitchell said as he gave her a dry smile

"Anyways." Aurora said as she stares at Mitchell "You better not do anything like this ever again. It will hurt more entities that you could possibly imagine." She continues while looking at Mitchell

Mitchell scoffs before looking at Aurora

"I did it because I enjoyed tormenting those who thinks they are above. This is the last time I will say this. Stop your threats. Stop coming after me, stop coming after the mortals." Mitchell said as the wind started picking up and blowing the trees around them

Aurora squints her eyes while her weapon starts to manifest at her hand

"The next time you do, heaven's door will be shed with blood again." Mitchell said as his eyes turned red while looking at Aurora

Aurora's arms started showing started forming ice shards as her weapon fully materializes

Mitchell tilt his head and smiles widely with his beaming red eyes glow in the darkness

"So war.. it is?" Aurora said while preparing to attack

"Oh. You're being dramatic again. There are order to everything." Mitchell said as he stares at Aurora 

Aurora stares at Mitchell while holding her weapon

"I assumed you are here on the order from our big brother. I am also under the order of the other half." Mitchell said while smiling before swiping Aurora's hair "Go back now while I'm still patient." He said while looking at Aurora

"If you continue this, I won't be able to persuade Michael any longer..." Aurora said as she stares at Mitchell while her weapon dematerializes

"It no longer matters what he thinks or what he will do. If this stupid thing doesn't stop, tomorrow, all of your enforcers on Earth will be massacred without mercy." Mitchell said as he stares at the sky 

Aurora gulped as she stares at Mitchell before backing away

"That's right. I know where the locations of the enforcers."  Mitchell said as he stares at Aurora

"Abort the mission." Aurora ordered while clenching her fist

The light beams from the sky slowly fades as the sky started reverting to normal

"You made a wise decision." Mitchell said as he stares at Aurora

"Brother. Just remember, I will always be at the side of peace." Aurora said before spreading her wings and ascended to heaven

"I know." Mitchell said as he stares at the sky before walking back to his mansion

Genesis stares from the window and sighs before looking at the sky

Mitchell entered the mansion and walk to his quarters. He rest on his bed while looking at the ceiling

"What an annoying turn of events." Mitchell said as he closes his eyes

The night passes and the peace on Earth has been restored. The enforcers roaming has been called back. 

In his chambers, Lucifer smiles as he stares at the situation on Earth

"Seems like you are still the warrior I always thought you were, Azriel." Lucifer said while smiling widely before staring at the ceiling "What are you gonna do now, Michael?" He asks while crossing his legs

Meanwhile, In Heaven...

Michael walk in the clouds while watching over mankind with a stoic expression

"Being bold doesn't amount to anything, Brother." Michael said as he cross his arm

Michael continue watching the mortals while sighing 

"An ominous feeling. I wonder what is causing this." Michael said as he stares at Earth

Two weeks have passed after the confrontation of Mitchell and Aurora.

Mitchell is now at his study reading a contract that is drew for him by another company. 

"Hm. It doesn't sound like a bad deal." Mitchell said as he scan the contents but his eyes gazes at his phone when it rang "You've reached Mitchell Revas. May I know, who is this?" Mitchell asks while looking at the documents

"This is Claire. I'm in the address you have given me." Claire said on the other side

"Oh, you're already here. Wait up." Mitchell said as he stepped out of the room and opened the gate

A car approaches Claire from inside the mansion

"Ay ang gara. Bakit may pa kotse?" Claire asks while looking at the car

The driver stepped out of the car and bowed at Claire

"Pasok po kayo." The driver said as he opened the door

"Salamat." Claire said as she entered the car

The driver walks to the driver seat and returned to the mansion as the gate closes automatically

"Ha? Pano yon sumara? Wala akong nakitang automatic lock or something..." Claire asks herself while looking at the gate

The car stopped in front of the mansion and the maids bowed at her before opening the door

Claire entered the mansion while looking all around her

Mitchell descends the stairs while smiling at Claire. Mitchell is wearing a white polo. A black vest is worn on top of it while two buttons are open showing Mitchell's white skin underneath. Mitchell is holding a folder filled with papers.

"Ano to? Prince charming? Ang gwapo... Lord, bakit naman ganito yung mga demonyo mo?" Claire said to herself while looking at Mitchell

"You're here." Mitchell said and smile

"Am I early?" Claire asks while looking at Mitchell

Mitchell shake his head and smile before guiding Claire to the living room

The maids prepare snacks and drinks for the two to enjoy while they are talking about their business. 

"Please take a moment to read this. This is your contract." Mitchell said as he handed the folder to Claire

Claire scan the contents of the folder and her eyes widened as she stares at the details of her benefits and compensations

"Is the numbers right?" Claire asks while looking at Mitchell

"No. I would say, it is rather right for a secretary." Mitchell said as he cross his legs

"Is that true? But does a secretary earns 9 digit salary?!" Claire asks while looking at the contract

Mitchell chuckled while looking at Claire as he finds her reaction adorable

"That's not a salary of a normal secretary. Remember, You're my secretary." Mitchell said as he stares at Claire

 "Ano daw? Inangkin na ako, hala ka. Singsing muna bago ka mag you're mine, you're mine diyan, Sir Mitchell. Kalma self. Wag bibigay sa temptasyon. Kumalma ka self!" Claire said to herself while nodding and looking at the contract once more

"Alright. While you're in my care, you will work as my secretary. You will be exposed to the works of a CEO, chairman and one of a board members. You will need this experience if you were to localized your products." Mitchell said as he stares at Claire

"That is a lot of pressure for one little me" Claire said as she stares at Mitchell

"You'll be fine." Mitchell said as he stares at Claire "Next, you will be living in my penthouse. Your food and bills will be shouldered by the company." He continue while handing Claire a Premium MasterCard "This will serve as your money while you are employed as my secretary." He stares at Claire

"Huy?! Eto ba yung sinasabi nilang black card sa korea?! Eto ba yung sinasabi nilang rich boyfriend feeling? Gaga ka! tahimik self!" Claire asks herself while taking the card

"I will be creating an appointment to my tailor for your clothing." Mitchell said as he stares at Claire

"Tailor?" Claire asks while looking at Mitchell

"Yep. No offense but this is my personal preference. You will be upfront with our business partners and I want you to wear the best clothing out there." Mitchell said as he stares at Claire

"No, no offense taken. I really do not how the world of the conglomerate. All the clothes that I have are ripped jeans, jeans, tights, t-shirts, blouse, and many t-shirts." Claire said while looking at Mitchell

"Is that right? Then I will also ask some of my maids to assist you in your clothing department. Shall we visit them?" Mitchell asks while looking at Claire before holding his phone

"Now?" Claire asks while looking at Mitchell

"Yes. We will be leaving Ilo-Ilo in a week. We need to have your clothes ready before we leave." Mitchell said as he smile and started calling someone

"Okay..." Claire said as she stares at Mitchell with a surprised expression
