"Happy Birthday, mia cara."
Demetri whispers in his Mate's ear as he wakes her a week later.

"No."
she hums tiredly and turns to the other side.

"I made you breakfast."
he ignores her disagreement and lays one of his hand on her cheek, stroking a strand of hair out of her face. His other hand is holding the breakfast he and Felix made with difficulty; it's not like they know anything about this stuff or are able to taste it without feeling the ned to throw up.

"It's too early."
Kyra pouts up at him as she slowly opens her eyes.

"It's half past one."
Demetri chuckles.

"Oh."
the ginger means before looking at the food in his hand.

Sitting up, she leans her back against the headboard while Demetri places the salver on her lap and sitting down beside her to let her eat in peace; he himself using the time to let his fingers stroke up and down her leg before letting it rest on her upper inner thigh.

"If I'd known you can cook, I would have let you do it every day."
she informs him as she finishes eating.

"Lucky me."
he huffs with a smile gracing his lips.

"I got something for you."
Demetri adds and takes the trey, speeding out of the room with it just to come back a few moments later.

"You're crazy."
Kyra stutters out with a shake of her head.

"Jane said you girls like those things."
the Volturi shrugs it off as he hands it to her, letting her admire the flowers.

"They're beautiful."
she smiles up at him and takes one out to smell it before putting it back again.

"And because they're short-lived, I got you others. Immortal ones."
Demetri means and takes his hand from behind his back, holding out five glass roses, handing them to her.

Kyra puts them on the bed beside her before getting up and jumping in Demetri's arms, wrapping her legs around his waist. The vampire catches her with ease and holds her close to him.

"I love it."
she mumbles but for some reason she doesn't think about the flowers; she thinks about him. But he doesn't know that.

Demetri smiles fondly before putting her back down.

"You should get ready. Marcus wants to take you somewhere."
he states.

"And maybe dress summerly."
Demetri adds.

Kyra looks at him with a raised brow before shrugging and disappearing into her closet just to come back a few moments later with a few clothes to disappear into the bathroom with.

The vampire stands there not really knowing what to do as he waits for her. A knock sounds on the door and Demetri urns around to open it, letting his quiet master in.

"She's getting ready; should be out in a second, master."
he informs him with a slight bow. Demetri raises a brow at Kyra as she exits the rom but she just grins sheepishly in his direction. She's wearing white Sneaker combined with a washed out Jeans-Shorts, a white Shirt that is stuffed in her Jeans and to complete the look, she wears one of his Jeans-Jackets in the same colour as her trousers.

"Hey, Dad."
she smiles at Marcus, who gives her one in reply as he walks over to her to kiss her forehead.

"Happy Birthday, sunshine."
he mumbles against her skin before pulling away.

"I want to show you something."
Marcus informs her and she nods at him as they walk outside. Pressing a kiss to Demetri's cheek, she lets Marcus pick her up before closing her eyes as he speeds them away.
