"Never argue with stupid people. They will drag you to their level, then beat you with experience." - Mark Twain.

Zamiel sat with Heaven in her bed while he explained to her the book that she had been studying. He was impressed by her keenness to learn and her ability to ask the right questions. She was passionate about learning and helping others. It didn't take long for Zamiel to explain to her what she didn't understand, and then he closed the book.

Heaven was still very concentrated, and seemed to think of what she had learned. "It is much more difficult than I thought." She said thoughtfully.

"Change takes time." He told her. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}

She nodded. "I realized I don't know much, and I still have a lot to learn. Maybe it was for the best that I didn't become a general. I would only embarrass myself."

He knew that she had a lot to learn, but with the strong will that she had, she could do anything she set her mind to do.

"Whatever you decide to do, I know you will do it well." He said, but she didn't seem to believe it.

For a brief moment there was a sadness in her eyes, before she dismissed it quickly.

"You didn't tell me why you came here. It is surely not just because you missed me." She said.

"Why not?" He asked curiously.

"You usually come to me when I need you. Otherwise you let me take care of myself." She explained.

Zamiel knew she was a young woman with ambitions and he didn't want to stand in her way, but did she like it or not? He couldn't tell.

"Would you like me to be different?" He asked.

She shook her head with a smile. "I like you just the way you are. I like that you treat me like someone who is capable of doing things on her own. It makes me feel strong. I like that you are there when I need you but you let me try on my own first and even when you help me, you don't do things for me. You give me an inkling on how to do it myself and encourage me to believe that I can do it."

She took his hand and intertwined their fingers. "Your hands are always cold." She said putting her other hand on top of his and then rubbed it gently.

Zamiel smiled. That wouldn't help. For some odd reason ancients were cold, and when they went into slumber, their bodies would almost freeze. There were theories that they needed to be cold in order for their bodies to stay the same. But that didn't stop them from feeling warm or feeling the heat from a touch or a kiss. Heaven warmed him from within. She warmed his heart and soul.

"Have you learned to draw power like your father?" He asked.

She nodded. "Yes."
