“I can’t really explain why I forgave him after everything.” Damian said, “I’m sorry for everything you have been put through.”

After a moment of silence and cuddles, the two began to feel restless, needing something to do in order to chase away the dream.

“Kaela, can we read please?”

“Of course, my love, what do you want to read?”

“Grandpa gave me a book around eight million years ago. I want to read it.”

“I forget that you’re so much older than me.” Mikaela smiled.

“Not really. In mortal years I’m a year or two younger than you.”

Mikaela bent down and kissed the demon’s forehead as Damian grabbed an ancient book from his bag.

“It is about the Infernal Hierarchy.” Damian explained.

“Is your entire family like your dads?” Mikaela questioned.

“Not really. Grandma and Grandpa are nearly impossible to describe. It is kind of like trying to describe the air or the ocean.”

“They sound interesting.” Mikaela said skeptically.

“Can we read now?” Damian asked, becoming impatient.

“Yes, my love.”
