I smiled warmly as I was texting my boyfriend. Finally, I'm at a happy place in my life. No more Valak or Damian, just my lovely children and my boo. My cheeks flushed from the dirty text I had received. Nyx, who was sitting next to me, glanced at my phone and grimaced. "That's fucking nasty. Why do guys always send nudes?" "N-Nyx! Don't look at my phone," I rotated my body away from her as she laughed. "Mom, chilllll. It's not like I haven't seen a dick before. If you ask me, his seems kinda smal-" "NYX! SHUT YOUR DIRTY ASS MOUTH! NOBODY WANTS TO HEAR THAT" yelled Lilith from the other room. Nyx replied with laughter, making Lucy pop into the room. "Hey! What's going on?" "It's nothing, Lucy. Don't worry about it," I awkwardly smiled. "Oh... well alright! I'm going to start making dinner now since I finished all my homework," Lucy smiled and entered the kitchen.

My children had all sprouted into wonderful, 19 year old adults. I have never been so proud in my life. Lucy is in her third semester of college and she is majoring in culinary. Lilith decided to become a professional taekwondo and karate trainer since she had mastered both. Varius chose to study veterinary practices at college and scored a job as a veterinary assistant. Nyx, who was interested in her demonic powers, decided to pursue more information about it while working at a doctor's office. Zurk took a different path of life compared to his siblings. He got a job working as a bartender at a club. Due to his charming looks, he often gets hefty tips from women or gay men.

The door slammed open and Zurk stumbled in with a curvaceous, light skin woman. They reeked of alcohol and marijuana. Lilith came into the room and furrowed her brows at the sight. Zurk and the girl stumbled onto the ground while laughing hysterically. I peered over the couch and sighed. "Zurk, you're home! Where were you last night?" Zurk looked up at Lucy, replying, "I had some... business to attend to." "Oh! Is this Jade? Nice to meet you! Zurk talks so much about you! Congratulations on your new job at Costco," Lucy exclaimed while shaking the girl's hand. The girl looked at Lucy with a confused expression before saying, "My name is Kelly and I don't work at Costco. I'm a stripper at Zurk's club." Nyx hollered with laughter and Lilith rolled her eyes while walking upstairs. Lucy, who laughed awkwardly and sweat dropped, said, "O-Oh! I'm so sorry. I must've got you confused with my other brother's girlfriend." Kelly glared daggers at Zurk and said, "Oh no, don't worry about it Lucy. I understand." Zurk stumbled up the stairs, making his hair fall out of his man bun, with Kelly and into his room. 'God knows what they're going to be doing up there.'

Varius strolled in with his girlfriend, Heather. She grinned and gave me a giant hug. "Long time, no see! I missed you," she said. "Same here. How has New York been?" "Oh, it was wonderful! Varius and I went to so many shops and places. I can't wait to go there for college next month!" "That's good. Lucy is in the kitchen if you want to talk to her," I said and she immediately bolted in the kitchen. I felt a little bad for Heather. She is majoring in paranormal studies, just like I did. 'I wonder how she would react... if she found out that my children are demons.' I sighed to myself.

Lucy had set the table and prepared a delicious meal. The sweet, succulent aromas filled the air. I seen that she had prepared chicken fettuccine with grilled, garlic bread. I sat at the table, along with my children, Heather, Kelly, and my boyfriend. I smiled as my boyfriend whispered sweet nothings into my ear. Everybody helped them self to a plate and conversated amongst each other, filling the room with laughter and joy. A sudden, uneasy feeling washed over me as I seen Nyx's expression. She was looking in the mirror and seemed terrified. 'Is she alright?' I got up from my seat and walked to her side. I gently placed my arm around her shoulder and leaned close to her ear. "Hey... Are you fine?" Nyx, not even giving me a glance, slightly raised her hand and pointed to the mirror. Lilith, noticing the problem, cocked her head towards the mirror. Her expression changed within a second; from content to downright infuriated. Before I could get a peek at the mirror, Lilith smashed it to pieces. The loud noise caused everyone to stare at her in confusion and shock. "There was a big ass spider so I had to kill it," she said nonchalantly and sat back down
