The IMP van drove up and parked behind Stolas' manor, it was late at night, and the New Moon meant it was dark enough that no one would notice. The lights within the manor were all on and glowing bright the sound of classical music could be heard even from the back of the manor.
"You sure there's a party going on in there?" Dante asked. Loona nodded looking at her phone.
"Yep, according to his Voxstagram page he's hosting a big party for his wife's birthday," she explained looking at his latest post.
"Well, that explains why he didn't invite me," Blitzo muttered more to himself.
"Would you want to go sir?" Moxxie asked.
"No but it would have been nice if he'd at least asked me," he said, crossing his arms pouting.
"Everyone shut up, we need to get inside, find Via's phone and delete that message," Dante rubbed his chin trying to come up with a plan.
"I got it! At fancy parties like this what do most Imps do?" he asked the crew.
"Uhh fuck their boss?" Blitzo asked, Dante smacked his forehead.
"They work as servers?" Millie said.
"Bingo, what we need to do is sneak in disguised as servants, that way we can sneak through the palace undetected," Dante explained to the crew who nodded their heads in agreement.
"How are we gonna do that if we're not really dressed to serve?" Moxxie asked, gesturing to the group's clothes.
"I know where the servants' quarters are and their breakroom we could steal some uniforms," Blitzo stated.
"Good let's do that," Dante said, getting out of the van followed by the rest of IMP except Loona who stayed in the van. As Blitzo was climbing out of the van he stopped and grabbed Dante.
"Hey Dante on the chance she's already heard the voicemail, you're gonna need these," he said tossing Dante a roll of condoms.
Dante just looked at the condoms, then at Blitzo and glared.
"If she's anything like her dad you're probably gonna need all of them," he said, patting Dante on the back and heading towards the back entrance, Dante just tossed the condoms away, and followed.
Two male imps stood in a back hallway, smoking cigarettes, they were on their breaks and trying to relax before having to get back to the party.
"God damn is it me or is Mistress Bella an even bigger bitch than usual?" one asked, taking a drag from his cigarette.
"I mean can you blame her with her husband having an affair and all," the other stated also taking a drag.
"True, hard to believe Lord Stolas hooked up with an imp honestly," he said, surprised that a lord would even consider sleeping with a low-level demon.
"Honestly I can't believe anyone would want to fuck him, those four eyes give me the creeps," the first imp shuttered.
"Alright time to get back," they both flicked away their cigarettes and headed back to the kitchen.
As they passed by a door it subtly creeped open and two hands each holding a pan stuck out and wacked them on the head. As the two imps fell unconscious, they were dragged into the room by none other than Blitzo and Moxxie, who later stepped out of the room wearing the uniforms of the two servants.
In the kitchen a male and female imp were busy preparing plates of orderves to be passed around at the party, until Millie ran up and hit the female across the head with a tray and Dante put the male in a choke hold. Stealing their uniforms and stuffing their unconscious bodies into the pantry, they had just finished by the time Moxxie and Blitzo walked in.
"Alright everyone here's the plan, we're going to move around the party pretending to serve these rich pricks and when one of us spots Stolas' kid we're going to swipe her phone, then were gonna get the fuck out of here," Blitzo explained hitting his fist against his palm, the others nodded.
"What if Stolas or his wife sees you?" Moxxie asked, concerned that this might go horribly wrong.
"Don't worry about it, right now we need to focus on fixing Dante's ginormous fuck up," he said condescendingly glaring at Dante, who glared back.
"Besides I have the perfect disguise," he said, reaching into his pocket and pulling out a fake mustache and sticking it on.
Dante and Moxxie both smacked their foreheads, while Millie gave him a thumbs up.
Dante moved through the crowd of people with a tray of horderves in his hand, for the most part the other noble demons ignored him barely even noticing his presence. For a moment Dante was actually offended by their arrogance and sense of superiority, a part of him actually wanted to kill every noble demon in this place then burn the palace to the ground. Dante shook his head no now was not the time to be thinking about shit like that, right now he needed to find Via get her phone and delete that stupid message.
Dante eventually spotted Octavia at the other end of the ballroom, she was wearing an orchid-colored strapless gown with, sequence done in the shape of spiraling galaxies.
"Huh, I have got to admit, she does clean up nice," Dante thought to himself as he inspected her in her gown.
Dante slowly approached her in a roundabout fashion making sure he stayed out of her field of vision. As Dante got closer, he realized something, the dress didn't have any pockets, and she didn't have her phone in her hands either.
"Fuck she doesn't have it on her, so where could it be?" he thought for a minute before realizing that she must be charging it, so that means it was likely in her room.
Alright good news everyone is here so no one should notice me sneaking in to get it, bad news if I get caught im fucked," he thought to himself grimly, before heading off to find Blitzo.
Locating Blitzo he pulled him close and whispered,
"Octavia doesn't have her phone on her, I think it's in her room, do you know where it is?"
"Uh maybe I know where Stolas' room is so it's probably around there," Blitzo explained.
The two tossed away their trays and headed towards the living quarters, Moxxie still passing out food saw them leaving, puzzled.
"Where the hell are they going?" he muttered to himself before tripping and falling over.
"Oh crumbs," he muttered to himself when suddenly this tall demoness walked up behind him.
""crumbs" oh my Satan that's so cute!" she exclaimed.
Before Moxxie could respond the Demoness picked him up and pulled him into a tight embrace.
"Not this one," Dante exclaimed, closing the door to a room.
"Not this one either," Blitzo remarked while checking another room.
The two moved down the hall checking each and every room they could find, but none of the rooms they've checked have been her room.
"That's Stolas room," Blitzo said pointing to a large door on the right side of the hall.
"Alright her room is probably close by," Dante said checking the room right across the hall he knew this was her room.
"Bingo," he exclaimed as he went in.
Blitzo stood outside keeping an eye out for anyone who might cause trouble.
"Blitzy?" a familiar voice called out, Blitzo froze of all the people who could have caught them why did it have to be him.
Blitzo took a deep breath and slowly turned to face Stolas.
"Hey Stolas what's up?" he said nervously, Stolas looked at him with a mix of surprise and confusion.
"What are you doing here, Blitzy it's not the full moon?" he asked.
"Oh, uh well you see I-" Blitzo stuttered, not sure what to say to Stolas so he doesn't find out about Dante being in his daughters' room.
"Ohh, I think I know what's going on," Stolas said with a sly smile.
"You do," Blitzo gulped, worried at the implications of that smile.
"Yep, you came here because you wanted some more of this," he gestured to his body.
"I mean I knew this day would come, you just couldn't get enough of me," he said smugly, scooping Blitzo into his arms and heading towards his room.
"Thank goodness too if I had to spend one more minute with Stella i was going to kill myself," he exclaimed as he closed the door.
Dante looked around Octavia's room. It was a very large and spacious room with a large master bed big enough to hold three people.
"Shit her room is bigger and nicer than my apartment," he muttered to himself looking around at the large spacious apartment.
Looking around he spotted her phone sitting on her nightstand, picking it up he saw one unread notification
Voicemail from: Dante,
Dante groaned, he clicked on the notification but the phone was password locked.
"Dammit! Huh maybe I could break it, no she would notice hmm," he groaned trying to think what her password might be. Then suddenly he remembered something from when he bodyguarded her, he remembered looking over and seeing her type something into her phone.
"Ahh," he exclaimed, typing in her password and unlocking her phone.
He immediately went into her voicemail and deleted the message he left. Sighing in relief he set her phone back on her nightstand, and headed for the door. He stepped back out into the hallway and texted everyone the job was done. He headed down the hall when he suddenly bumped into something.
"Ahh hey watch where you're going you, Dante!" Via exclaimed in excitement upon recognizing who she had bumped into.
"Dante, what are you doing here?" she asked, confused as to what he was doing in her house.
"Uh I um wanted to see if you wanted to see that movie you won't shut up about," he said putting on a smile hoping she'll buy the lie.
Lucky for him she did, "wait really awesome, you have no idea how boring these parties are I've been looking for an excuse to leave," she explained heading towards her room.
"I just need to change and grab my phone then we can go," she said excitedly entering her room.
Dante just looked at the door dumbfounded, while yes, he was happy, she didn't hear that message but now he has to spend more time with her something he was hoping to avoid with all this, he groaned internally. She came out of her room moments later dressed in her usually attire of a pink dress and black jacket and beanie.
"So, shall we?" she asked taking his arm in hers
"Let's," Dante said through gritted teeth trying not to let his frustration show.
As the party died down the guests all began to leave one by one, one of them a tall demoness entered her limousine, carrying a pet carrier at her side.
"I still can't believe Stella let me keep your cutie, don't worry you're gonna love your new home," she said in a condescending tone like she was talking to a puppy.
Inside the carrier Moxxie panicked.
"Millie, Blitzo, Dante, anybody help!" he screamed as the limo drove off.
Epilogue
A young female imp with glasses and wearing a paint-stained hoodie stood in front of the mailbox of her apartment building going through various letters.
"Bill, bill, bill, death threat," she said to herself when suddenly she heard the front door open.
Looking up from her mail she saw none other than Dante walks in his clothes where ruffled and ripped, hair was messy, and he was covered in black feathers. He looked very tired with bags under his eyes.
"Hey Dante ruff night?" she asked, Dante just walked past her and went up to his apartment.
Rhue watched him go, looking down on the ground she found one of the feathers that were covering Dante. Picking it up she inspected it in the light.
"Huh must have been some night," she said with a giggle, before heading back to her apartment.
