The moment the kids were introduced to their father he pulled them all into hugs:

"Your all alive!" He cried happily cuddling the shy but happy children back, meanwhile, Athena stepped back to give them privacy walking out of the room where Michael was. He stopped her before she could leave.

"Lord Michael? What do you want?" Athena was confused she didn't remember offending anyone or him other than threatening to chop Isah's hand off if he didn't take his hands off the door.

"We are taking the children." Michael firmly stated.

"I thought we already had that agreed. Though I did raise them so if I feel you are treating any one of them badly I will come and take them once more." And she turned into silver mist and vanished before Michael could start a fight.

"Troublesome Gods..."

An hour later the children were prepared to leave after saying their farewells to their caregivers Isah, Michael, Lucius, Leo, Aelaina, and Luciel all spread their white wings and ascended to the high heavens. Isah smiled watching the children goof off, he had already informed Hecate and her family who were glad to hear that the children were safe and sound and not dead as they previously had believed them to be. 

This is what he understood of them thus far:

Lucius - The mature one and the protector

Aelaina - The brave one.

Leo - basically him but loves and he means LOVES books.

And then there was little Luciel - A cute bean like her younger sister Amore...

Isah sighed it was finally over he had his kids back, all of them...

Adora woke up one Saturday morning with a black cat beside her:

"Mama!" Adora cuddled to the cat who turned into a familiar black-haired brown-eyed woman - Hecate.

"Hey, you okay?"

"Yup!" Adora giggled getting off the bed and running downstairs to greet her parents with Hecate following behind her.

She was met with her mother holding a suitcase and wearing her brown travelling coat as if she was heading, far, far away.

"Mommy?" Adora asked her mother who looked at her sadly apparently wanting to leave in secret.

"Adora, I'm sorry but I can't deal with your father... He's nothing but a dirty cheater!" She in her 'infinite' wisdom assumed that Hecate and her husband were having an affair. Bravo woman... First, she ignored the fact that Hecate was traumatised from her millennium-long imprisonment and would NEVER do something like that despite being a demon, second she disregarded the fact that if there were an affair Lord Isah would tell her...

"Mommy?" Adora's eyes filled with tears:

"Please don't leave." Adora as the reincarnated Amore was able to tell her mother was the one who had lost her marbles. She tried to reason with her mother and change her mind but was violently shoved to the side by her mother before she left, Adora burst out in tears, not because of the fall but because someone she loved and cared about deeply had betrayed her. Isah showed up moments later to comfort his child and find out the truth from fiction, and as suspected Hecate was innocent.
