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...?

Comment and review, don't forget.

Love from the ashes

These two words killed the hope on Lumian's face, as his heart seemed to quiet down.

Evelyn looked at him, and elaborated:

"I can't just forgive and forget, Lumian."

Evelyn gazed at her younger brother, but her mind was on that day seven years ago, and on that day two days ago. When it came back to the present, she spoke again, even if only to repeat her words:

The living room quieted down again, so much this time that the quiet movements of Daemon in the kitchen came to add to the symphony of the drowning from the TV.

Lumian exhaled, and lowered his head, disappointed. He spoke, more to himself than to Evelyn:

"And to say that mom wanted us to be brother and sister again at the very least."
