I caught her and opened a portal behind us, and I fell back into it, landing on her bed in the manor. The portal above shut, and I hugged Eliza tight to like never before. Sothing about this mont made it almost hard to breathe as flashes of life forgotten peppered my mind. I could do nothing but hold her close to as I tried to keep myself together.
"Are you alright?" Eliza asked, looking up from my embrace, and I smiled and to a deep breath before speaking.
"I just really missed you," I said, and Eliza smiled brightly and then cuddled back into my chest as I stroked her hair.
"So, how are things going down there?" Eliza asked after a little while, looking up at again, and I kissed her forehead, making her smile.
"Taking longer than I had planned, but that is why I am back for a few days. Lexi and so of the other demons are watching the gate so I don't have to take a long way back down. I think that Kadeon might be planning sothing down there," I explained, starting to relax finally.
"Oh? Well, I assu that you are at least having fun?" She asked, and I chuckled.
"I am doing a lot of fighting and training, so I guess that you could say that I am having fun. Though, hearing that Kadeon is mixed into the ss takes a lot of the fun away. Still, the issues down there with the demons are pretty comical from a mortal's standpoint, I think," I explained with a grin, and Eliza frowned cutely at .
"Funny?" She asked, and I nodded and then explained what the Black King was doing to the other demons. "So you're telling that she is trying to make all demons like fun, but half of them are fighting against it?" Eliza asked.
"Sothing like that. I still don't know both sides of the story, but it looks like the Black King is with creatures called Aether Demons. No clue what they are, and I haven't seen one, but I have a sneaking suspicion that they might be the Zodiacs. I think that Kadeon might be trying to take the Underworld over and then try to invade our realm from there," I said, and Eliza sighed.
"You never really get a break, do you?" Eliza asked, and I shrugged.
"I am the god of this world, and that ans protecting it and everyone that lives on it. I hope that I can have a break one day, but that day is not yet today... Well, today is kind of a break," I smiled, and Eliza's eyes went big.
"That's right! You should go see Breya! She has been coming to the house every day to check personally if you are hiding here rather than down in the Underworld. I tell her you aren't here, and then she proceeds to search the entire house, and do not get in her way! Let tell you! I have never seen a woman get so wild just before a hatching!" Eliza laughed and then jumped out of bed as I sat up. "Co on! Open a portal!"
I got out of bed but then paused and thought about a very special person. A portal opened almost imdiately to reveal Tallia in her garden with Destiny.
"Hello, love," I said, and Tallia stood up and crossed her arms.
"Lexi has told about all your dalliances below," Tallia said as she leveled her gaze at .
"Did she tell you about the ones that she instigated?" I asked, crossing my own arms, and Tallia let out a long sigh, and a small smirk crept on her face.
"I suppose I deserve this for sending her with you. Everyone knows that woman loves to sample the more erotic experiences of the world," Tallia said and then turned to Destiny. "Would you like to co with us? We are going to see Breya?" Tallia asked as the breeze kicked up, blowing Destiny's blonde hair into her face that she was forced to pull back before nodding.
The two won dusted themselves off, and then both ca through the portal, each hugging . Destiny was first, and then Tallia, but we shared a long, soft, and slow kiss that I didn't want to end, no matter who was watching.
"Co, we have a birth to witness," I said, smiling as I opened another portal that led back to Breya's house. We stepped through it and were blasted with the warmth of Breya's ho. She had already set up for an appropriate hatchling send-off with enough room for us all.
Breya was in the middle of it, rocking side to side, cradling sothing close to her chest. When we entered, she looked up, and tears ran down her face.
"You made it," she said, her voice quivering.
I went over to her and knelt down next to her, seeing our golden egg cradled in her arms. I pulled her into my chest and kissed the top of her head.
"I wouldn't miss this for anything," I whispered as the other girls ca around us.
Suddenly, I heard a clicking noise and then the sound of a wind-up toy as I pulled back from Breya to see the golden filigree of the egg in her arms start to shift and move around! This was the first ti ever seen sothing like this happen, and my eyes were glued to it as I waited in anticipation of what was to co next. It wasn't like I had never witnessed a birth before, but this was sothing different, obviously, and it was of my own flesh and blood. That was what truly made this mont special.
"It's starting to hatch!" Breya said as the egg continued to move. The image in the center was now gone, and the egg was starting to open. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the egg opened to reveal a perfect little baby girl. She let out a tiny cry as she looked around and then up at with her big blueish-gold eyes and adorable little white cat ears. I could already tell that she was mine, and my heart lted seeing her little face.
Everyone around us cooed in awe, and Tallia ca forward, wrapping Breya up in a hug.
"She's beautiful," Tallia said, looking up at , and I nodded, wiped away so of my own tears, and then Breya turned to , offering our daughter to .
At first, I was confused about what she wanted, but then after about two seconds, my brain kicked back into gear. I slowly took our daughter into my big arms, but she was so tiny, and no words could describe just how beautiful she looked, or this mont. Countless lifetis felt almost insignificant to this singular mont this ti as I stared into her eyes. Then my eyes were pulled into hers, and I was no longer in Breya's house.
I stood on a grassy plain, and a strong breeze blew the grass, making it look like green rolling waves like the ocean. For so reason, I had no thoughts, and I could only enjoy the beautiful scene in front of . Then I turned around and saw a beautiful woman with golden angel wings, a white cat tail, ears... and blueish golden eyes.
"You are my father, Galio? Is that why I can feel love for radiating off you?" The woman asked, and my mind slowly started to work again, and I realized what this was.
"I am, but how are you able to create another realm like this?" I asked as I looked around.
"I am a child, but I am also a young adult and an old one. I am all of those things at once, and I am now part of all ti that exists past this point," She said, and I lifted an eyebrow.
"Does this an that you are going to rapidly start growing?" I asked, hoping that was not the case.
"No, only in this place can I be all things at once," She said and then gave a concerned look. "Why will Truth not speak to ?"
I didn't answer right away and thought about it, but to my surprise, Truth didn't chi in. I assud that he would explain himself, but maybe this place was too far outside of his influence. Or he was worried about sothing to do with them interacting.
"I can't talk to him right now, or he isn't talking to . Either way, I think that he might be worried about what you might be capable of," I said slowly, and my daughter nodded to , and then I was holding her as a baby in my arms again and back in Breya's house.
"Galio? Are you okay?" Tallia asked , and then I felt the tears running down my face.
