Peering at the little twins slumber beside one another without a sound, cradled by their mothers, an innate urge to take a photo sprang through my mind.

"You look dead…" Ariel said, grinning away. "You should get some sleep. The children of gods tend to be a handful. Even sealed. Jin… Zariels first born blew up a planet with a sneeze. And it was quite an important planet. Ever seen an infant with a bounty on its head? Barely ten days old?"

"Oh yes… Orfena." Yahweh interjected. "The Order of The Mask was stationed there. High-rank politicians within the Council of Omnis. As you can imagine, they were pissed. I blamed the parents, but you know they want to blame the infant."

"Don't tell me… They tried to jail the little Jin." I lamented.

"Yup…" Ariel said, stretching her arms with a visible sense of exhaustion. "Shit was so stupid. Metatron sided with Zariel over the ridiculousness of it all. Zariel was fined. He lost quite a penny. Things would have ended there had Zariel not told Aurelia, who instantly got pissed. She ended up slaughtering all of the members of the Mask. And as you can imagine, Zariel got fined yet again. And almost jailed. At least till he threw his wife under the bus."

"..."

Yahweh grinned, stroking his beard with a peculiar glint in his eye: " Ah, yes. Didn't that little girl Aurelia go wild? That was when they went to arrest her, right?" He laughed. " She threw on some boxing gloves and destroyed each and every one of them that attacked her."

ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm "..."

"Yep. Aurelia now has the highest bounty in the known Myriad Heavens." Ariel said, patting my shoulder. She glanced at the kids, sound asleep. " Your kids will get you into trouble, so be prepared. According to Yahweh, they might have already burned billions of lives. Oblivion is currently in a state of anarchy. "

My brows knitted together: " Is it really that bad out there?"

"It is," Vita told him, seemingly enamored like the other generals with the twins. Their eyes were practically glued to the chubby cheeks of the twins, which were softer than any marshmallow. "Right now, many of the Abyssals within the citadel are panicking. Hundreds of top-level officials are dead trying to defend the weak."

"Papa…" Little Ty said, placing her hand on Vesyrn. She looked at me with two big googly eyes. "Ty is gonna take Ves. Ty needs to get married."

"..."

"..."

"Huh?"

"Papa gave permission," Arkanos added with a righteous nod, and at that moment, a blinding light followed, as everything within my mind still. The world simply froze as I saw Ty and Arkanos about to vanish. The darkness within me sprang from every crevice of the void around me to seal them.

"Sorry, Arsene… but Lily and your daughter have ruined much of the future. So things are set in stone by the laws I created. "What happens now needs to happen. " Yahweh said softly. "This isn't personal, nor is it about love. For the sake of the sanity of you, Snows. Vesyrn Snow needs two powerful anchors in his life."

As his words echoed through my mind, I watched Ves… my son vanish before me. Question that should have thundered from my thoughts gathered before they were crushed beneath my wrath.

Abyssal FLames exploded in a whirlwind of flames. My eyes snapped to Yahweh, whose presence somehow mysteriously vanished.

"What the—" Pausing as an onslaught of killing intent capable of burning worlds to ash flared to life, I turned to Lilith's twelve generals wrapping the children and their queen in a protective bubble.

"Stop it…" Said Lilith weakly. She peeped her eyes open, which trembled as if supported by a mountain." They'll be back. Father already warned me of this. The future is to be ambiguous… and Ves… needs the twins. They have one… of… the most… imp—"

Falling short on her words, my heart dipped when I suddenly froze: " Did she say, Father? Father as in…"

"God.' Ariel said, innocently scratching her cheek with a faint blush. " I haven't seen Father in so long. And rarely does he get involved. Seems like that marriage was truly important."

"...Yahweh is God…. Like God with a capital G? The GOD?"

"It literally means God," Ariel said. "Your demonic lineage didn't help translate because you know. He's God."

"Fuck me and call me daddy. Fuck! Are you kidding me!" I howled with a tremor running down my spine. "W-W-W-Why is God kidnapping my kids?"

"Pretty sure he just said it." Said Ariel flatly, unable to hide the cheeky grin.

Sweat trailed my brow as I groaned: ' I'll not even be able to walk my son down the aisle."

"I don't think that's what fathers do for their sons." someone said

"I'd better. Those two are going to eat that boy alive." I muttered, somehow unable to imagine them in bed. My god, they are kids.

"Hehe. Ty and Arcanose are going to be clapping his cheeks! Hahaha"

"Stop it!!!!" I moaned as the atmosphere grew lighter. "Damn it. Those two little girls tricked me. No wonder they asked all those questions when they met me." And I looked at Ariel. " Where's the wedding?"

"How would I know? And really? Just like that, your Ok with it?" She argued as I nodded.

I shrugged. "What the hell do you want me to do? Honestly, marriage is meaningless. It's just a word. We, as a society, give it meaning. Ves will be the one to decide what he wants to do as an adult. Till then, all I can do is create a divide between the two so they don't cross any boundaries before he is mindful of consequences."

"Mindful?" Said Vita with a smirk. "You dare say that? That kid is in for a rude awakening."

" Damn right," Ariel added. "I won't be surprised if he got like two hundred kids by eighteen.

"Hey! I'm mindful. I just don't give a fuck."

"Do you even hear yourself when you talk?" End remarked with a worrisome expression.

Holding up the middle finger to everyone, I approached Lilith and the wee baby Iza. Dawning them in clothes with a snap of my fingers. I took them into my arms. "Let's go… Ariel, you find out the location. I'd be damn if I missed my child's wedding, even if it's somewhat awkward given the age difference. And just for the record: This is some grooming type shit."

"Would you rather the alternative?"

"YOu mean the mysterious future, where Ves doesn't have an anchor? I don't know. I just would have liked to have been informed before my child was kidnapped. Just saying. It's a simple request as a Father. Or does that word have no meaning?" I remarked, looking directly at Ariels downcasted expression .

I should be mad… I really should, but… I had planned to allow Ves to at least court one of the dragons. I just didn't think right after he was born, they'd kidnap him. And I really didn't think God would be involved in this foolishness. I wonder what he's getting out of this.
