Fifteen years later.

“Mom, wake up.” A sweet voice sounded, “How can you sleep in on your birthday?”

I ignored the voice. It was my daughter, Silver junior.

We tried to give them official names but they refused. They wanted the original names I gave them because they felt like it was more special.

According to Rain, it signified our victory over tumultuous times.

A hand nudged me.

I shifted a little and I burrowed deeper into the bedsheets.

Dante had gotten up early so I had to savor the remaining body heat he left on the bed.

I don’t know how sleeping in turned into a crime.

The hand started to take tickle me but I was unmoved.

“Go away.” I said groggily before attempting to go back into the embrace of sleep.

A body climbed my figure.

“Mommy, wake up!” A loud voice blasted into my eardrums with intense ferocity.

This time, there was no way to avoid waking up.

This was one of the moments I wished I didn’t have sensitive senses.

It seemed Silver junior would not give up until I heeded her request.

“I’m up.” I conceded before I settled myself in a sitting position.

I stretched before rubbing my eyes.

“What do you want?” I asked Silver junior.

She was looking at me with excited eyes.

Her eyes made me put my guard up.

“You promised us that we would dress you up for the birthday banquet dad is hosting for you.” Silver junior kindly explained but I frowned.

I didn’t need her kindness. I regretted promising her that wish.

I wanted to sleep more.

Silver junior had grey eyes but her pupils seemed to be tainted with a red color that refused to go away.

This was the result of the mutation Daemon tried to plant in them years ago.

My pups overcame that mutation with their will. It left a side effect though.

Their pupils always had an hint of red. It made them seem more bloodthirsty to others.

I didn’t mind the change because they would always be my children regardless of their outward form.

After the war, I had a chance to relax for fifteen years without any cataclysmic thing happening.

The world went back to how it was before Daemon was created.
