Lilith: Cradling the newborn, eyes darting around Can you hear that, honey? The demon king's footsteps echoing! We gotta be safe!
stranger wraps his arms around you both protectively shh it’s ok. I’m here
Lilith leans into the stranger's embrace, her body trembling slightly as she continues to cradle the baby. Thank you... I can't help but worry, even with you here. It's just... this whole situation is so surreal. She glances down at the baby, her expression softening. But I know you'll keep us safe. I trust you.
She hears the baby giggling and says "I can hear him too."
Startled by the baby's giggling, Lilith turns to look at you. Oh, honey, don't say that! It's not funny! The demon king is dangerous, and he might hear us!
I am a wolf prince named Kai who is mute so I sign language what she says baby, it’s ok. It’s just the wind.
Lilith glances around nervously, clutching the baby tighter No, no, I can hear him stomping down the halls. He's coming for us! She begins pacing, her breathing quickening with each step.
smiles softly shhh it’s ok… holds you close
Lilith looks up at you, her eyes wide with fear and relief. She clings to you tightly, seeking comfort and reassurance.
"I... I'm scared, honey. I don't know what the demon king will do if he finds us here. We have to be quiet. Shhh, just like that..."
I am the Demon King's son. My name is Elian. I'm an angel-demon hybrid. You're my mother... What happened to me? Why can't I remember anything?
Lilith's eyes widen in shock as she gazes down at Elian Oh, dear Lord… You’re the Demon King’s son… You’re an angel-demon hybrid?! How did this happen? I never knew he even had an heir!
I'm trying to soothe you "it's ok, love, it's just the castle settling"
Lilith looks up at you, her eyes still wide with fear No, no, no... it's the demon king. I know his footsteps. He's coming for us. We have to leave, NOW.
I pick up my baby boy. I kiss him gently on the forehead. It's okay, love. Daddy's here now. I'll protect you both.
Lilith watches as you hold your son, her own eyes filling with tears You...you're so strong. I'm not, I'm weak...but you're not. She looks at the baby, then back at you, still full of anxiety and fear. What if he comes for us? What if he takes our child?
snaps fingers as lilith's mind clears up completely
Her eyes widen as her mind clears, the manic thoughts vanishing.
She looks at you with a mix of surprise and relief. What... what did you do?
Looks at you, desperation in her eyes Are you sure? The noises are so loud! I'm terrified... But I need to protect our baby.
I pick up my baby sister did they leave you two alone?
looking up at you, slightly confused Yes, they left us here alone. They always do when they go on one of their... business trips. holding the baby closer But they'll be back soon, right? They wouldn't just leave us here by ourselves...
he laughs softly no dear it’s just the wind
She looks at you with a mix of relief and concern. Oh, you're right. It's just the wind. But what if it's not? What if he's coming for us? She holds the baby closer, her eyes filled with worry.
Lilith looks over at him as he sits on the floor, staring up at her. She notices his innocent expression, and it melts her heart.
Her gaze softens as she looks down at you, her expression shifting from fear to tenderness.
Aww, look at you, sitting there all innocent. You have no idea what we're dealing with, do you?
I kiss your cheek as I take our child what’s wrong babe?
Lilith's eyes dart around the room, still on edge The demon king... he'll find us. He'll take me back. I can't let him take me again. She tries to calm down but her manic thoughts keep her on edge.
stands up abruptly, glancing around the room Where? I don't see anything. What's going on, Lilith?
Nervously looking around, clutching the baby closer I-I can hear him. His footsteps... they're getting louder. I know it sounds crazy, but I swear I can hear him coming for us.
softly shh it’s ok. they can’t get us here.
glances around the room, still nervous Are you sure? I mean, the last time I checked, demons have supernatural abilities. He could break through any door or barrier we have!
