"No, Dad, what's going on?" Hannah turned to her father as she stood up and stepped away from the woman she didn't recognize.
"Lisa... Your visit is... unexpected," Dian said, fixing his gaze on the beautiful white-haired woman in their midst.
"Oh, I just thought to stop by to check on my daughter, since she has awakened," Lisa said, and everyone in the room seemed shocked by the realization as they all looked at Hannah.
"We'll talk about that later," Lisa turned to look at Hannah and she placed her hands on her daughter's cheeks.
"What is going on?" Hannah looked down as she mumbled and then she looked at the people in the room.
'I said I wouldn't be shocked if anything strange happens. But I'm just confused.' Hannah's mind was in turmoil as she was so baffled by everything they were saying.
...
It took a while as Hannah didn't understand what was happening, but she soon got used to it. If only she knew all this, wouldn't she have been of better help to Dexter all this time?
Hannah got up from the chair and walked away from the room. She went downstairs and left the building entirely, going to a quiet spot where there was a bench.
She remembered Dexter sat on this chair with her a while ago, and she sat while looking at the ground.
"Hey."
Hannah turned to see Lisa sitting beside her, and she was surprised, but she sighed and looked back down.
"Are you really my mom?" she asked in a low voice.
"Yes. And I know you will want to know the full story," Lisa rested her back on the bench. Hannah had lived a life of isolation up until the apocalypse.
She was born with a weak and fragile body, and she had a bodyguard almost all her life. She couldn't do sports nor indulge in extracurricular activities like her peers, as her dad didn't want to see her get hurt.
Only when she got to the university was she able to finally get freedom and do a lot of things. That was also when she met Dexter.
"This is all so weird. How come I found this wounded dragon when I decided to leave the coven," Lisa mumbled with a smile as she monitored the man.
Seeing bones and pieces of missing flesh regenerate, she placed a hand over his chest, and a bright orange flame came out and covered the wound.
After three seconds, the flame subsided, and the man's chest was now in perfect condition, almost like the wound was never there.
'Now that I've left the coven, I think I'll explore for a bit. See what the other races are like,' she thought with a smile as she imagined the adventure she was about to have.
"Hm..."
Lisa nearly fell from her chair when the man on the bed groaned and turned towards her with his eyes open.
He had yellowish eyes and chocolate-colored skin, which was muscular. And he had a handsome face, coupled with that, and all she could think about was that he was the most handsome man she had seen.
He continued to stare at her, and she furrowed her brows.
"I saved your life, can't you at least say something to your savior?" she said with a pout as she looked at him, and he sat up from the bed.
"Thank you, really," he said simply in a deep voice.
"Might as well introduce yourself while you're at it," she said while turning back and walking to a counter behind her.
The young man observed the surroundings and then began to talk.
"My name is Obsidian, but people call me Dian," he said, and he then relaxed back on the bed.
"Hm... Nice name. You better..." She turned around and was in shock to see him already asleep again, and she gritted her teeth.
"You ungrateful man! You're supposed to leave after you get better!" she said out loud, and then she sighed and sat on a chair in front of him to watch him.
She unconsciously found him amusing to watch while he slept and stayed like that for a while.
