Luz's Perspective

"Luz!" I heard King's squeaky voice called my name, as he repeatedly hit my face with his tiny paw "C'mon get up!" He made sure to smack the bridge of my nose a little harder, making me crack an eye open before I lightly shoved him away from me

I groaned "Five more minutes" I mumbled in a husky tone, rolling over on my side, hearing King's footsteps making the wooden board beneath us creak as he moved over in front of my face. Barely opening my eyes, I saw the tiny demon sitting in front of me with his head tilted slightly

He then hit my face again, making me hiss "My belly is growling! the king of demons demands you to wake up!" The tiny demon whined

"Why don't you go and eat then" I told him, placing my hand on top of his head, giving him a soft pat. My hand slowly slid down his face as I started to doze off again, my hand fell to the wooden floor, creating a soft thud.

"Your human creator said that I have to wait for you until I can consume my sustenance" King complained, smacking my arm again. Rubbing my eyes, I slowly sat up and stretched, wincing as my body felt a little sore.

The both of us went down, the tiny demon bounded down the steps after me, his cute little chuckle echoing off the cluttered walls. Looking down, I saw my moms, getting all sweet from the first day in the morning, which I don't really like seeing

"Morning, mami!" I chirped, earning me a smile in response "Morning, owl mom"

"Good morning, mija" My mom smiled, giving me a kiss on the cheek

"Good morning Luz" My owl mom greeted with a smile, as she looked back at my mom, giving her a kiss

"Okay, I know both of you are already married but do you really have to show your affection towards each other in front of us?" I muttered, making them froze for a moment before giving me a nervous chuckle

"The king of demons isn't pleased with all if this!" King squeaked, crossing his little arms over his chest, making it look more adorable

"Alright kid, we'll stop" Eda replied, assisting my mom to sit on the chair, as the four of us started to eat.

I walked by the kitchen, reaching up in the cupboard. I found a few cleaned cups and bottled. Tossing the now empty bottle in the trash, I went back over to them after taking a pancake syrup. I sat back to my chair, holding the bottle out. I popped open the cap and started to pour the syrup on my waffle.

I looked at King, then back at the bottle, silently asking him if he wanted to have some for his waffle. King's eyes lit up and nodded his head "Tell me when" I popped the cap open again as I started to pour the syrup on his waffle.

I heard heavy footsteps creak down the stairs. Looking behind me, I saw auntie Lilith, Owl mom's older sister "Good morning auntie Lilith"

"Morning Luz" She greeted back, picking up her glass and carefully swirling the drink before

I looked back at my plate and started to eat my food, then stuck the last one in my mouth. King and I finished up our breakfast, I took his plate and started to rinse it off "I'll just go upstairs"

"Sure mija" My mom smiled

I went back up to my room, but stopped when Hooty swung open "Hoot! Hoot! Luz! People are here for you!" He loudly called, making me, my moms jumped, as Eda nearly choked on her food.

My mom was about to hit Hooty but Eda stopped her and nagged her about scaring them instead. I walked passed them and went over to who was at the door. "Oh, hey guys!" I grinned, as I saw Willow and Gus standing at the door.
