Chapter 214 - 'I Am Your Real Father"

Cosmo was getting worried after she saw the way Lilith was behaving and she looked at Rex then he looked at her sternly and sighed. 

'What is it?" he asked. 

'What is going on?" she asked. 

'Nothing" he responded. 

'You are lying" she said. 

'No I am not, why would I lie?" he asked and she sighed. 

'What's going on with Lilith?" she asked and he looked at her then sighed. 

'You should ask her that yourself, I don't know and even if I did it's not my place to tell you anything Cosmo, you guys are in a relationship, do yourself the favor and ask her yourself" he responded. 

"I don't get it, she was just fine, what the hell happened in just a few hours?" Cosmo asked. 

"Let it go and just eat, you worry about every little thing" he responded and she sighed then continued eating. 

"Did she talk to you about anything?" she asked and Rex folded his cuffs. 

"No she didn't" he responded then got up and walked away and Cosmo's eyes glowed. 

"Liar" she shouted and Rex turned around looking at her then smiled and kept on walking. 

'What the hell is going on here?" Cosmo asked with a sigh. 

'Maybe you should just ask her, that way you won't have to stress yourself too much, where did she go anyway?" Vivian asked. 

'I will find her, she probably went for a walk or something" Cosmo responded as she got up and walked away then the others looked at each other while Lilith was sitting by the ice cream shop n the city. 

'What are you doing here all alone?" Cal asked as he came to her and she smiled. 

'Hey," she replied as he sat on the bench with her. 

'Hello princess, are you okay?" he asked. 

'Yeah I am fine why won't I be?" she asked. 

'Well Cosmo was looking for you like crazy last night, I thought she would have lost her mind if she hadn't found you" he responded and she folded her cuffs. 

'She cares too much" she said and he smiled. 

"Cares about you too much?" he asked and she looked at him. 

'Yeah," she responded. 

'And what about you?" he asked and her eyes widened. 

"What about me?" she asked and he scoffed. 

"I have seen how crazy you are about her though it's not my place to tell her, you care about her more than she does about you and that's a fact, I might not know you as well but this I do know after looking at you guys" he responded. 

"You sure observe a lot," she said and he laughed. 

'Observing everything around you is good and it comes in good use later on, like now for example" he replied and she smiled. 

'So you have been with Cosmo ever since she was a kid? am I right or wrong?" she asked. 

'Sort of right, Cosmo's mom and my mom were friends, we lived like a family until Cosmo's mother died then everything changed, when she was alive everything was great, we were all joyous and lived in peace without worrying about anything, everything was nice and they still are but every day of our lives we fear" he responded and her eyes widened then she frowned. 

'My father?" she asked and he looked at her then sighed. 

'Yes your father is one of the biggest problems here" he responded and she sighed, 

"I know he is a pain in the ass," she said as she folded her cuffs and he looked at her as her eyes glowed. 

"Your highness" he called out and she looked at him then smiled. 

"Please just call me Lilith," she said. 

'Well Lilith why are you out here all alone and not with Cosmo?" he asked and she frowned. 

"I just want some air that's all" she responded. 

"Did you two have a fight?" he asked and she sighed. 

"No, we did not, I am just a little tired you know, I am..." she responded. 

'You are what?" Cosmo asked and Lilith jumped. 

'What are you doing here?" Lilith asked. 

'I was looking for you, then I found you here talking and you stopped at tired, oh no you stopped talking at I am" she responded and Lilith looked away from her. 

'Lilith why won't you look me in the eyes?" Cosmo asked and Cal started blowing whistle then they both looked at him as he got up. 

"Go easy on each other and Cosmo don't jump to conclusions, I am sure she is like this because it's something concerning you," Cal said as he took out his wings then flew off and Cosmo sighed then looked at Lilith sternly. 

'Want to tell me what's going on with you?" Cosmo asked as she looked at Lilith's bandaged hand. 

"You got your hand cut because of the table?" she asked. 

'Yeah I did" she responded. 

"Why didn't you leave it for the servants to clean up?" she asked and Lilith sighed. 

'I guess I wanted to do it" she responded as she placed her head on Cosmo's shoulder and Cosmo sighed then looked at Lilith. 

'Is it hurting a lot?" she asked. 

'Not so bad" she responded. 

"Lilith, are you healing fast again?" she asked and Lilith took the bandage off of her hand and sighed as she saw the cut was still there healing normally. 

'Well that's a no, I don't get it despite suppressing the phoenix your powers are still there, you were supposed to be able to heal" Cosmo said and Lilith frowned as Cosmo wrapped her hand back with the bandage. 

'Yeah I guess you are right, it usually does heal, like back then" she replied and Cosmo patted her on the head then Lilith raised up and kissed Cosmo on the lips while people were passing by and they were staring while smiling and Cosmo was still surprised at how open Lilith was being. 

"Wow," Cosmo said as Lilith raised up. 

'What?" Lilith asked. 

'You are behaving differently, not that I am complaining trust me I am not, I am just really surprised, your behavior right now is really taking a toll on me" she responded and Lilith laughed. 

'Damn, relax Cosmo" she said then patted the girl on her head and Cosmo sighed in relief. 

'I don't have a problem with that, I am being honest" Cosmo said and Lilith leaned in towards her and Cosmo's face got pink as Lilith passed her hand on Cosmo's thigh and Cosmo started to tremble then Lilit sighed and moved away from the girl. 

'Relax I am not crazy to do such a thing to you in public Lilith" she said and Cosmo sighed. 

"I am actually really glad to hear that" she replied. 

"Well want some ice cream or so on?" Lilith asked as she got up. 

'Will you really give me what I want?" Cosmo asked as she stood up and Lilith looked at her. 

'Depends on what it is" Lilith responded and Cosmo smiled. 

"I thought you might say that but can you be honest with me and tell me what's bothering you Lilith?" she asked and Lilith's eyes widened as she folded her cuffs. 

"You just need to relax Cosmo, stop overthinking things, I am fine" she responded and Cosmo folded her cuffs in anger. 

'Don't lie to me right now Lilith" she said and Lilith frowned. 

"Go back to the castle and relax" she replied as she was about to walk away and Cosmo grabbed onto her hand then she sighed. 

"Come on Cosmo, let go" she said as Lilith's eyes widened when she felt as if someone was looking at her then she heard a calm voice calling out her name. 

"Who is it?" she asked and Cosmo's eyes widened. 

"What's then matter Lilith?" she asked and Lilith squeezed her hand. 

"You are the guy from the last time," she said as she released Cosmo's hand and her real father appeared before her then Cosmo smiled and so did he. 

'Who are you really? I still don't get it" Lilith said and he patted her on the head. 

'Want to head back to the castle for a minute or so?" he asked. 

'Sure, come on" Cosmo said. 

'Cosmo" Lilith called out and she looked at her. 

"Don't worry he is a friend and you can trust him" Cosmo said with a smile as she held on tightly to Lilith's hand as they walked back to the castle. 

Upon arriving there they all went to the living room where everyone else was and upon seeing him Rex flung up from his seat and smiled. 

'So you are finally ready huh?" Rex asked and he looked at Lilith then smiled. 

'Yes I am, it's time, I don't want to lie anymore, I am tired of doing that and now that she is gone, I think she deserves to know now" he responded and Lilith sighed. 

'Okay am I the only one who is going to be left in the dark here?" Lilith asked and Cosmo hugged her from behind then she forced a smile and Csomo frowned. 

'Are you uncomfortable?" Cosmo asked and Lilith sighed and she held onto the girl's hand. 

'No, I am not, I am sorry for making you think that" she responded and Cosmo smiled brightly. 

'So since you are ready go on ahead and let her in on your secret and her mother's" Rex said. 

'What are you guys talking about?" Cosmo asked. 

'Well you should know this now, we took time but it was for your own safety, the truth is he is not your real father, I am" he responded and Lilith's eyes widened as she left staring at her father.
