[Samael Ashwood's POV]
It's been some time since Mother has gone to confront Lord Ashwood. I somehow sent others to rest due to the earlier outburst of Mother's mana.
"Samael, You should rest too you didn't rest since you came back from the dungeon." Well, Except for Liliana, who was sitting by my side rubbing her face on my neck area and inhaling my scent in a comforting manner. Her presence was a soothing balm to my weary soul, her soft touch grounding me amidst the chaos that had engulfed our lives.
"I will rest soon, Liliana," I promised, placing a gentle kiss on her forehead. "But I need to ensure everything is in order first."
Liliana sighed, her worry evident in her eyes. "You're carrying too much, Samael. We all are. But you don't have to bear it alone."
