After a lot of hugs, kisses and cuddles from Azron, control was finally given back to Azazel, who was laid back all this time in their shared consciousness.

When his eyes turned purple, meaning Azazel was here, Aiyana felt shocked for a second before she relaxed in his hold.

Staying with Azron felt so comfortable that she forgot that Azazel was the one she initially liked. Silly her!! She smiled.

Now it seems she liked both of them.

If Azazel was the one she liked from her whole heart, then Azron was someone she had come to adore, no matter what. He was really cute. And not to forget, sho adorable!!! Be it in his beast form or human one.

Now that she knew their secret, Azazel had told her many things about himself.

Azazel was initially a soul made from chaos, an eternal deep void. And once while roaming the multiverse, his soul had somehow fused with Azron's one.

At that time, Azron carried the genes of an extremely powerful ancient extinct race.

After the fusion, both of them had come to coexist with each other as a single entity with two personalities.

[Azron was the one who excelled in monstrous strength and power.

While Azazel was the one with a tyrannically cruel mind and with mystifyingly unearthly powers.]

Her musings came to a cease when Azazel had caught her attention with his hands.

We have a gift for you too.

Gift? A valentines gift for her???? Really??!!!

She smiled at him, very excited about her gift.

Azazel opened his arms, with a smile on his azalea lips, indicating her to hug him.

Although confused and bashful, a shy Aiyana slowly creeped closed towards his chest and enclosed her dainty arms on his neck, cuddling to his chest. In return, he embraced her closely in his arms, all the while smiling in euphoria.

In a trice, they had appeared in a vast garden.

This garden was entirely different from hers. It was very big. Big enough to hold a house. And it was fully covered with many exotic and rare flowers she had dreamed to see.

Blue hydrangea, Delphinium, Clematis, Fuchsia, Chinese bellflower, Amarylis, Roses of different colors and varieties including purple and black roses, covered the most part of the lush dark greenery before her eyes.

Aiyana gasped while roaming her eyes all around for what she could see. For a nature loving person like herself, this place was nothing short of a heaven. She was totally delighted.

In her bliss, she quickly ran to a smiling Azazel and hugged him with all her might laughing in joy. This was truly amazing.

After then, Azazel held her hand and walked her to a quite and warm place in the vast garden. All the while Aiyana stared on all the delights her beautiful zircon brown eyes could capture.

Azazel ceased his steps the moment they came in front of a shrub of violet and pink hydrangeas. She could see some rustling in the bushes.

Azazel then kneeled and removed the shrubs to one side, to reveal a cute silver grey puppy in his hands.

Azazel smiled warmly at her while transferring the whining puppy into her arms.

Aiyana carefully held the soft fluffy creature in her hands and cooed at it when it began to sniff and lick her hands with its little tongue.

The little puppy was so adorable and cute that its look could rival the most innocent of creatures. It's eyes were a clear marble black like water. And the way it glanced at anything and everything was completely adorable.

But the little pup had some deep scars on its body. There was a long scar that ran across almost half of its face from its right ear to its jaw, making its right black eye appear a little gray. There were even some uneven black scars that ran on its silver furred body.

Seeing its scars made Aiyana's heart gasp with sadness. How could someone put harm to such a little baby?? Heartless!! Her heart bled.

She pecked the puppy, all the while cooing on it with concern and sadness in her eyes.

Azazel suddenly enclosed her in his arms and gave her an offended pout. As if saying, "Why did you forget me after getting a new friend?"

Aiyana just chuckled at his antics and kissed his nose, changing his pout into a sated smirk.

She started to sway the little pup to put it to sleep. Azazel signed.

Did you like your gift?

Aiyana smiled and nodded in glee.

Name? She asked.

It's your pet now. Name him what you like.

Aiyana fell silent and just stared at the little soft creature tossing and turning in her arms with a smile.

Phoenix. This was the name that came into her mind. It meant a new beginning. Whatever pain the little creature has gone through before, but now, she would make sure that it gets the love and care it deserves.

After Aiyana had told the pup's name to Azazel, he looked fairly surprised, but what could he even expect from her.

He told her that Phoenix was abandoned at birth. So he took care of him. Yes him. It was a male.

Aiyana just smiled and promised to take a good care of it, to which he smiled and kissed her forehead.

One thing Aiyana didn't know was that Phoenix, whom she decided to call Nox for short, is far away from a normal dog.

He was one of the members of a now extinct supernatural race. The hounds.

Due to his ugly appearance, his parents chose to cast him out of their lair when he was a baby.

After that, the creature had roamed endlessly in the whole of earth in search of a place to belong.

That's when Azron found him and took him in.

But Azazel, the other personality of Azron never liked him.

Little monster was supposed to grow a conscience when he found a true master.

But Alas!! Even after thousands of years, the imbecile monster did nothing but annoy Azazel instead of growing up. There were so many times Azazel just wanted to throw it into a blackhole and be done with it. But he did not because of his Beast.

Apparently, the little monster followed him everywhere because it was a big fan of Azron. Note the sarcasm.

Azron was too, a powerful beast of its own kind. The most powerful when it comes to strength. So that's why the little monster respected and accepted Azron as his teacher.

And let's just say, Azron really enjoyed irritating Azazel in every way known to mortal kind.

Now that they had given it to their mate, Azazel was relieved as he could finally breathe in peace without the little monster pestering him and Azron was happy as he knew that Aiyana would be perfect guardian/teacher figure to it.

Atleast better that it's parents who had just abandoned it without any care.
