Garroth's POV

I woke up this morning to Vlyad shaking me.

"What? What? What? Is there something wrong?" I asked groggily.

"You HAVE to see this!" Vlyad said urgently.

Vlyad then pulled me out of bed and I lazily walked forward. We walked into Y/n's room and saw her and Laurence sleeping together.

"LAURENCE! YOU'RE-"

Vlyad slapped a hand over my mouth. Laurence and Y/n started to stir in their sleep.

"Look how peaceful they are." Vlyad said calmly.

Vlyad took his hand off my mouth so I could respond.

"It'll be more peaceful when I shove my fist in Laurence's face-"

"This is what Y/n wants. She wants... him." Vlyad explained.

"I know but-"

"But nothing. Look at her, she looks.. peaceful." Vlyad smiled. "Neither of them have ever looked so at ease. So calm. So content."

I looked at them. Both of them truly did look peaceful.

"He hasn't been so peaceful since before Zane attacked Phoenix Drop sixteen years ago. And even then, he just..." I commented quietly.

"And I'm sure same goes for Y/n." Vlyad added.

I started to leave the room.

"We should let them wake up on their own." I stated.

Your POV

I woke up with a jolt, this caused Laurence to wake up.

"I have to watch Lilith!" I exclaimed.

"I'll help you." Laurence yawned.

"It's okay, I got it." I assured him.

"You sure?" Laurence asked.

"Yup." I said quickly.

I quickly got ready for the day. I put on a pair of weaker shoes (there's no reason for me to wear heavy shoes if I'm just going to watch Lilith). I then took a pair of leather gloves with me because after babysitting, I'm going to the ruins.

I also left my sword here since I was just watching Lilith.

I gave Laurence a kiss on the cheek and ran out of the room.

"Y/n! There's an emergency in Phoenix Drop!" Dante ran up to me.

My eyes widened.

I took one of Dante's swords, and we ran to Phoenix Drop.

The one day I'm unarmed!

Leona was walking by conveniently.

"Good morning, Y/-"

"Leona! Go to Aphmau and watch Lilith! If Aphmau asks where I am, just tell her I had to help Dante with something!" I cut her off.

She understood and we ran to the portal.

"It's Emmalyn! Shes freaking out and won't calm down! She won't explain anything!" Dante explained once we were through the portal.

I sprinted past Dante and to Emmalyn's home. Kenmur and Donna were outside of the home. I pushed past the two of them and started banging on the door furiously.

"Emmalyn!" I shouted. "Open up! It's me!
Y/n!" I shouted.

She didn't budge.
