Darius carried Lena to her room; she had fallen asleep on the couch playing with Michael.
Placing her on the bed, he gave her a kiss on her forehead. Looking at the one person who pushed him to get stronger or lose her.
He couldn't help but smile.
'She really is your anchor.'
Azree chimed in; Darius's mind was at peace, and he could think straight.
"Hmm, she's the main reason why I even started to use the powers." Darius smiled, scratching his head.
"Left to me, I would still be oblivious to what I could do."
'She was the one who made you take the first leap of faith, and since then you have been doing things that no one can imagine a mortal doing.'
Azree added, his voice laced with an unfamiliar tone of pride. It was soothing for Darius the first time he heard something like this from Azree.
"Yeah, now I have more people to protect and make sure I would be able to handle whatever would come our way."
