100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Vincent woke up with so many things bothering his mind. He watched Helena who was lying naked beside him. She was still sound asleep.

Last night, they made love several times until Helena got exhausted. She drained all his energy before she got satisfied. They\'ve done it in the bathroom, on the floor, and on the bed.

He just hoped Mia didn\'t overhear them last night. They got lost in their own lust and desire.

\'She wants her dead. She won\'t stop until she sees her dead.\' Vincent thought to himself, rubbing his forehead. \'Why did Jane have to show up to her? Why now?\'

He couldn\'t figure out why Jane suddenly appeared in front of Helena. What was her motive? Why hurt her?

Without further ado, Vincent got off his bed, not making any noise so that he wouldn\'t disturb Helena. He wore his robe and went to the balcony attached to her room. He made a phone call in Country R, contacting his most loyal man, Phoenix.

"Hello, Phoenix," Vincent felt somehow troubled by something. Phoenix noticed it right away when he heard his voice.

"Yes, My King? Is there something wrong?" Phoenix asked him expectantly.

Vincent was silent for a moment, thinking about his command. Was he going to kill and eliminate Phantomflake just like what Helena had requested him to do?

"I want you to come here to Country M. I have an important and urgent mission for you. Bring your elite men. You are the only man I can trust with this mission," Vincent said to him meaningfully.

Phoenix was surprised because Vincent summoned him personally. This was indeed a very important mission for their leader.

"What do you want me to do, my King?" Phoenix asked him with curiosity.

"Capture Phantomflake and send her away to a place where Helena couldn\'t find her. Stage her death in front of Helena." Vincent gave his order.

Phoenix was taken aback for a moment when he heard Phantomflake\'s name. \'Phantomflake again…\'

He knew her. Phoenix could still remember what Vincent did for this woman. He couldn\'t understand why he couldn\'t kill her. This not only happened once. His master always chose to let her go.

If Helena was his master\'s woman, then what is Phantomflake in his life? Why was he trying to protect her from Helena? 

Phoenix couldn\'t understand Vincent\'s decisions and actions when it came to Phantomflake.

"Phoenix, are you still listening to me?" Vincent\'s voice snapped him out of his deep thoughts.

"I\'m sorry, my King. I know I don\'t have the right to question you but I am just curious. Why do you keep protecting this woman from our Queen just like what happened a few years back? Why can\'t you grant her request if she wants Phantomflake dead? Is she more important than our Queen?" Phoenix couldn\'t stop himself from asking Vincent. He had been dying to know his reason.

A few years ago, they already captured Phantomflake. They could easily kill her if Vincent just gave his order. But instead of killing her, Vincent ordered them to release her. His action was very confusing because, at that time, Phantomflake almost killed Helena by stabbing her chest. 

If he was Vincent, then he should have ordered his men to kill Phantomflake for what she did to Helena. But Vincent gave him a different command.

"I\'m not protecting her," Vincent replied. "She was as good as dead when I asked you to release her before."

Complicated emotions flashed through his eyes when he recalled how Phantomflake suffered from a very traumatic experience because of Helena\'s scheme.

Even after they released her, Vincent continued to monitor her. And he knew that Jane tried to commit suicide before. And that was when Jane met Stephen who became her doctor.

Vincent knew that Stephen tried to erase her memories. That was the reason until now Jane couldn\'t remember him.

"If you are not protecting her, then why are you asking me to do this mission?" Phoenix asked him again.

Vincent frowned because his right-hand man was becoming too nosy because of his curiosity.

"Because I don\'t feel like killing her just yet. I am still having fun… playing with her…" Vincent responded.

"Are you sure, my King? Is that the only reason why you choose to keep her alive? Don\'t you have feelings for her?" Phoenix asked him again, just wanting to confirm something.

Vincent ended up bursting into a peal of laughter when he heard Phoenix\'s last remarks. But his laughter didn\'t have a hint of humor at all. Phoenix regretted asking him this question. It looked like he offended Vincent.

"You are becoming too nosy, Phoenix," Vincent mumbled in his cold voice.

Phoenix kept his mouth shut when he heard Vincent\'s stern cold voice. 

"A-Apology… my King. Please forget what I have said," Phoenix immediately apologized after offending his master.

"By the way, what should I do with Tastsumi\'s case?" Phoenix managed to change the topic right away.

"Let Speed handle him." Speed was second in command after Phoenix. 

"Okay, my King. I will hand over this task to her." Phoenix heaved a sigh of relief because Vincent didn\'t scold him. It seemed like he was back to his mood.

"Last question, my King. Should I keep my presence in Country M a secret to our Queen?" Phoenix scratched his face, waiting for Vincent\'s reply.

"No. Your presence will make her at ease. Just let her think that you come to kill Phantomflake," Vincent nonchalantly responded.

Phoenix could only smile awkwardly. He felt like he was committing a crime for deceiving Helena. But of course, his loyalty was to Vincent. He shouldn\'t worry about Helena.

Vincent hung up the phone after giving Phoenix his last instruction. He wanted Phoenix and his team to fly to Country M tomorrow.

After a while, Vincent glanced at his phone screen absentmindedly, thinking about Phoenix\'s questions related to Jane. Subconsciously, Vincent dialed Jane\'s number. Her phone was ringing but no one was answering. 

Little did he know, Jane was still unconscious and her phone was with someone. Jane\'s belongings including her phone were given to Nathan after she passed out. Nathan was on his way to transfer Jane back to the medical facility when he noticed her phone ringing. Someone was calling her.
