--An) Haven't been feeling well, so chapter releases are all over the place. --
In the bath, Destiny had Atolie sitting in front of her and was gently washing her hair. She never thought she would actually beco a mother so soon, and definitely not in this manner. Water dripped over Atolie's snow white shoulder as she sat there with her eyes closed. She had a small smile on her lips from feeling comforted by Destiny's tender care.
But one thing really did linger in her mind. She still worried about one thing. "Mama… dislike… ?" Her words were slightly broken since she was still not used to talking, but she still forced these words out.
Destiny stopped what she was doing and stared at the back of Atolie's head in slight shock that she would even ask such a question. She shook her head and answered: "Why would you ask such a silly question? I created you. When I first saw you move for the first ti, I felt so excited. You are above and beyond anything, I could have ever imagined. Atolie, you are now my family and my d-daughter. It is all a bit shocking to since I never thought I would have a daughter so early in life but none of that matters. You are now here, and I will love and care for you from now on. Since you are my daughter, after all."
Destiny hugged Atolie from behind and rested her chin on her shoulder. "So never worry about not loving you or disliking you because that will never happen. If anyone tells you differently, co running to and tell . I will beat them up for you."
"Hehe…." Atolie lips curled up into a true smile as she placed her hand on Destiny's arm and nodded her head. "Mmm… Mama loves Atolie…."
She did not understand the concept of love, but from what she understood, it seed to an the sa as like or even more than like. Just knowing this made her really happy. She was afraid, from what she had heard earlier, that the one who created her would dislike her. She only knew what dislike and like ant after listening to her Mama and another girl talking about such things. At that ti, she was not fully conscious. But she still heard it and understood from the tone in their voices what was good and what was bad. A kind of instinctual understanding.
"Yep! Who could not love such a cute girl!?" Destiny kissed Atolie's cheek before going back to washing her hair. "Tonight, you are the star of the show. If you feel nervous, just stay by my side and hold my hand, okay?"
"Nervous?" Atolie did not understand.
"It's when your stomach crunches up, and you beco sweaty due to the circumstances around you." Destiny really did not know how to explain it in a simple manner, so she could only explain it like this.
"Oh…. Okay, if I beco sweaty…. What is sweaty?" Atolie turned her head and looked at Desinty with a questioning gaze.
"When water begins to push through your skin. I am not sure if you can do this or not. It depends on how much the skin on your body replicates other species. You will understand when it happens." Destiny explained.
"Oh." Atolie nodded and leaned into Destiny. "Mama…. Thank you for making ."
This simple sentence made waves flow through Destiny's heart as she looked at Atolie. Her eyes began to water up as she once more embraced the girl and whispered back: 'Thank you for being born."

Blake had gotten all his wives together and were decorating the main dining hall with colored strears and balloons. It was a little rushed, but they even were able to get a sign down using magic that read Happy Birthday. It was going to be late, but they decided that today would be Atolie's official birthday.
Since Atolie was now an official mber of his family, Blake wanted her to feel loved and welcod here. So he was pulling out all the stops. He even invited all the top people in the city. And was broadcasting the event on DCTV, just like how he did for Angelica and his other children as they were born. The girls had fought over who would go shopping to get her all kinds of clothes and accessories. In the end, Noa, Yui, and Erica were the ones who won.
A few hours later….
Blake stood in the dining room with the old kings and queens of the races as well as many others from the city and with a glass of wine raised up. "I want to thank you all for coming on short notice. Tonight I will would to introduce to you all a new mber of my family."
"New mber!? Blake, did another one of your wives give birth!? I thought it was still a few days away!" Bret yelled out. He had no idea what was truly going on.
"Just wait and see." Blake smiled and clapped his hands: "Destiny!"
The door at the side opened. Two girls slowly walked in. The first was Destiny who had on a blue dress that went down to her ankles. She was followed by another young girl around the sa age as Destiny. She had a purple halo over her head and a pair of white feathered wings. Her long white hair bounced with each stop and matched well with her long white dress.
Atolie gripped Destiny's hand when she saw all the people in the room. She suddenly understood what being nervous ant. She edged closer to Destiny as she let her Mama pull her along and ca to a stop next to her grandpapa.
Destiny cleared her throat as she pulled Atolie to stand in front of her. Since they were the sa height, she had to move her head to the side and hugged Atolie from behind while resting her chin on Aotlie's shoulder. "This cute girl is my daughter Atolie, an apostle."
The whole room went silent as they stared at the young girl who was biting her lower lip and looking down at the ground while fidgeting. But this silence only lasted a few seconds when Bret suddenly yelled out: "An angel has descended!"
