It was not difficult to follow Park Jimin. Not at all.

Despite being a demon with extraordinary senses, exquisite powers, and a knack for winning battles, Jimin did not notice the things following him south to the Oak Castle.

Perhaps it was because Lucio chattered excitedly in his ear about playing with his sister Rose. Or it could have been that the white-haired male was too invested in his constant thoughts about killing his father and escaping the man once and for all.

As he mounted the Oak Castle walls with Lucio on his back, he didn't think twice to check for anyone following him. No mortal was quick enough to catch him. No one could see past his vision vexes.

Nobody could hurt him if they didn't know his weakness.

Jimin felt obliged to believe this. If weakness lay heavy in the mind, he thought, there was no hope of pushing past it to succeed. He couldn't afford to dwell on negative thoughts anyway, especially since death had grasped him once before.

One of his marked hands clutched onto the windowsill as he opened the atypical window entrance to the bedroom. Rose's face lit up as she heard the pair enter and rush forward.

"Jimin!"

Rose ran ahead, dropping her pen on the ground as the half-blood lifted the tiny girl into his arms. 

"How are you baby? Are you having fun coloring?"

Nodding vigorously and pointing at her artwork, Rose smiled against Jimin's neck. Lucio, on the other hand, noticed that the attention of his father was focused on somebody else. He became irked, finding preferable interest in the pen that had fallen on the ground.

"I have your pen, Rose! Hah hah!"

Instantly, Rose's face shifted to an angry set chin. Her cheeks puffed and she wiggled out of Jimin's grasp, determined to get her prized item back. She ripped the object out of Lucio's hands and ran quickly to the other side of the room.

Jimin laughed.

"You teach your brother, Rose. He can't just take stuff that's not his."

The tiny silver-haired girl gave him a quick look of confusion as her legs carried her away from the red-head. "Brother? Lucio is not my brother!"

"Yes I am! Daddy told me!" Lucio raced after the girl, grabby hands swinging around the air for the pen. "Rose, you are my sister!"

Rose looked at Jimin to check if this was true, and Jimin nodded at her. 

"You two are twins. I don't think Taehyung or Jungkook told you because they wanted to protect you...but now you know. Lucio and you...are brother and sister."

The girl swerved as Lucio bumped into her arm. He momentarily grasped the pen before Rose ripped it out of his hand, sticking her tongue out at him.

"I don't want to be his sister!"

His kids were definitely feisty ones, although he suspected that the trait came from Mai's fiery attitude. From what Jimin could tell though, Lucio and Rose displayed very different personalities that both reminded him of Taehyung as an adult.
