Kass was on her way home from school, excited about getting all top marks but concerned for her closest friend. The relationship with Markus was toxic to everyone but Sophie, but Kass knew no one could change her mind about it.
The cars moved fast, around 200 MPH, so it didn’t take Kass long to get back to Zavana from Vespa; however, when she arrived, she noticed a giant crowd of demons outside and the village’s top demons, including the elder, surrounding the main entrance.
"She looks like she’s barely alive and my dad is there!" Kass screamed to herself while parking her car and sprinting over there.
"Dad, what’s wrong?!" Kass screamed.
"Quiet sweetheart. This is Lily. She comes from the Ozinga village. She said her entire town was wiped out by an amber eyed demon known as Zinnia."
Lily was sitting on the ground shaking in fear but speaking coherently. "She...she was our village’s protector. Whenever anyone bad came...Zinnia always sent them away."
The village elder asked Lily, "So your protector killed everyone in your village and you got away? Such a brave young girl!"
"Indeed she’s lucky to be alive. That’s a long walk without blood or flesh. Had she not made it when she did..." another villager said to the elder.
"That’s enough Isaac," Kass’ father, Kyle said with a stern tone. "I think she should stay with us so I can monitor her health. Is that alright with you Zyphra?"
"Yes my love. Oh, Kass, you’re home! Sorry for the mess, go get in your car and head through the backroads and meet us home, we have much to catch up on."
It took 2 weeks to get Lily back to full health, but the emotional damage didn’t leave. Kass remembered vividly waking up to Lily screaming in her sleep. She would go cuddle her and sing her a song until Lily fell asleep in her arms.
She knew her parents were already spending a ton of time and money to send her off to school, so when Kass asked them to adopt Lil, she was surprised how quickly they said yes.
Now Lily was the one at Ability High as a freshman, following in her big sister’s footsteps to eventually go to Ability Academy. The problem was with the Necram attack, most of Kass’ family stayed at home. Her mom was home schooling Lily.

"What really happened?!" Kass demanded. "Why would you kill your entire village, you were their protector!"
"Let the past go and focus on what’s ahead of us Kass. You can keep searching for answers your whole damn life but if you do, you’re going to miss what is right in front of you. Look at how happy everyone is over there. You’re the one that made this happen. Now get your head on straight, stop worrying about me and start worrying about yourself and what we need to do to make sure you, Tyler and the other wives don’t get handed over to the fucking Necrams!" Zinnia said passionately.
"Fine!" Kass exclaimed. "You don’t have to tell me anything but you better not go and die by fucking up your end of the operation. When this is all said and done, I get the truth or you get out of our harem. Deal?"
"I wasn’t aware you were the one who gave out the orders who he could date and who he couldn’t," Zinnia laughed. "But fine. I’ll play your little game. You need to grow up Kass."
Kass went completely pale. She remembered all the slacking off she did, how she was still only SS when Sophie and Nyxara were beyond limitless.
’I need to get my shit together and stop blaming others. Lily is doing just fine and there’s more to this than I thought.’
"Sorry Zinnia. You’re absolutely right and I’m being a little drama queen. I’m glad you’re here. I’m going to spend time with Tyler so I can relax, unless you need to talk to him first?" Kass said while giving her a hug.
’Oh?’ Tyler thought while noticing Kass hugging his new girlfriend.
"It can wait, I’ll hang out with the girls." Zinnia smiled.
’I swear all demons are crazy,’ Zinnia laughed internally.
Zinnia and Kass made their way over to the living room and Kass sat on Tyler’s lap.
"What are you ladies planning?" Zinnia asked curiously.
"It’s probably better if you don’t know, honestly." Sophie explained.
"It’s not that we don’t want to tell you, it’s that we shouldn’t tell you for your own safety," Nyxara added.
"Just don’t do anything too reckless. I don’t know how powerful that person in the maroon mask was. By the way, did you notice once you go past the limit were there any changes?" Zinnia asked casually.
"Tons." Tyler said calmly. "Everything’s easier, we emit aura uncontrollably and we’re beyond human. Well, at least I’m Eidolon now. I’m not exactly sure how it works for the ladies. Nyxara is already a princess and Sophie was an immortal human, so, yeah, you’re beyond whatever a demon would be."
"Demons can still become goddesses Tyler." Gaia said calmly.
"That’s good to know. I wouldn’t want her or Kass turning into something straight out of the Underworld."
"They could if they flip and turn on you, but I doubt that will happen. Look at how much Kass loves you and even Zinnia can’t stop staring at you. I think she wants your dick." Vivian chuckled.
"That’s one way to put it." Tyler chuckled.
"Alright Kass, let’s go," Tyler said while picking her up.
The girls laughed and waved while Tyler took Kass into the bedroom.
"Sex first, talk later," Kass said while biting his lip.
Tyler grinned. She wanted to make love to her husband and that’s exactly what she did. After they finished, Kass turned and exhaled while lying on her back.
"I needed that baby. I love you. Sorry for being an emotional wreck lately." Kass said while grabbing his hand.
"I love you too and I don’t think you’re an emotional wreck. If anything, I think you’ve significantly matured and you’re handling this situation really well all things considered. So tell me more about your sister." Tyler said while snuggling up to her.
Kass explained their entire story and Tyler continued looking her deep into her heart shaped pupils. Listening to her talk about her little sister made him think of their future together and what it meant.
’She’s going to be a really great mom. If she was able to handle her sister’s emotions at that young of an age...’
Tyler continued listening, running his hand through her hair and hugging her tightly. When she finally finished, she was almost in tears, so she buried her head, horns and all, into Tyler’s chest.
"Hey, hey. It’s ok babe. You’re going to be a great mom someday!" Tyler said while running his hand down her back.
Kass’ head pulled back and she lit up and blushed. "Do you really think so? Me, a mother?"
Tyler laughed and smiled. "Yes, if at 16 years old you were able to help raise an adopted little sister and get her out of that trauma, create a pact with the other girls to share me, put yourself last when sleeping with me despite being a virgin and lying about it, among so many other amazing things about you, I think you’re going to be a fantastic mother one day."
Kass kissed him and wrapped her arms around him. "And you’re going to be a great father. What kind of baby do you want?"
"One that has your horns and your eyes. I don’t mind if it’s a boy or a girl as long as he or she is healthy, but I think our child should have a lot of their mom in them." Tyler said while kissing her again.
"I want a little demon baby boy that can summon. If it’s an Eidolon demon, all the better. Can’t Isis make that happen?"
"I can." Isis said calmly. "All you have to do is ask."
"Yes, she can but are you sure you want to bring a child into the world considering these circumstances? Shouldn’t we be responsible parents and wait until this battle with the Necrams is over?" Tyler asked with a smile. "It’s not just my decision, you have a voice in this too. If you think we should, just tell me and I’ll think about it."
Kass smiled. "What if we never get the chance because the Necrams destroy our world?"
Tyler’s aura immediately shot out of his body and wrapped itself around Kass and himself.
"Woah...your natural instincts are so impressive Tyler. Just think, you’re going to become even more powerful. How about if I make it past SSS we have a baby?" Kass asked with the cutest, most passionate smile Tyler had ever seen.
