LifeDayDreams

“I don't like judging people, but sometimes I can't help it. I don't like talking behind people's backs, but sometimes I do. I just want to live a good life, but sometimes I can't.”

Love, Betrayal, Blood, but not Hatred.
Only cold revenge, and a son to complete the family.

"D" Section, a nonexistent military unit. "D" for dark, "D" for depth, "D"... for death.
It demanded no attachment, and Daemon sacrificed love for it. Years later, the death of his teammates made him feel that he had done enough for the country, so he came back to the city he grew in. But can what has been forsaken be gained back? Because now Evelyn, the one to have breathed vitality in his numb, orphaned heart, had her own life, and a little boy calling her mother. And while he left his life full of dead bodies behind, did that life really let him go?

From the ashes, will it love or...?

Love from the ashes

Evelyn passed a hand over her skirt to smoothen it, and sat down in front of the desk in Daemon's office. She placed her bag in the seat beside her as Daemon took his seat, and he looked at her.

Evelyn did not smile as usual. She had a professional face mixed with a layer of hidden concern as she looked at Daemon:

"Everything is going as planned. Should we advance the plan?"

Daemon looked at her without ripples in his eyes.

The couple had a tacit understanding of letting work matters for the office, especially with the both of them working together, so it was normal that the discussion was happening in the morning of the first day after the weekend, even though they spent the latter together.

The question was asked in a calm tone, showing an intent to discuss, instead of being dismissive.

Evelyn regained a bit of her smile, and opened her mouth to elaborate her opinion:
