Zavok flicked his ears forward. "Hmm..."
"Father?" Zara sat down when she noticed her father calming down a little. "You know how me and Zephyr always fall asleep when you set yourself on fire as a dragon and hold us in your arms?"
Zavok's eyes shifted to his eldest daughter, but he did not move. He was deeply thinking.
"And your lullaby always helps. The one that you sang to us when we were born." The deer antlered lioness smiled.
"You girls do like it when I do that." Zavok looked back to Cole. "It may work. Zekyu has only heard that lullaby once in her entire life while Zephyr and Zara had heard it countless times. She may remember that."
Zara started to hum, but she didn't sing the words.

Cole: She wandered off into your territory, looking for you I guess.

[Kipekee]

"If you take a good smell, Cole, her scent is stale already." He huffed. "Zara, my little hunter, be a darling and go find your sister." Zara sighed and obeyed her father.

[Adofo]

Cole: Zavok.....I want you to answer a serious question. What's the reason why you hate me?

[Kipekee]

"I don't hate you, you're just a little on the dumb side. Come on, let's make ourselves useful and help out little Zar, shall we?" Zavok trotted off, signaling with his tail for Cole to follow.

[Adofo]

Cole followed his father in law.
Cole: How am I dumb? ....I'm seriously asking.

[Kipekee]

"Details, young man. Details, details. You are far too oblivious to details for your own good." Zavok chuckled. "Demons must know an angel when they see one as soon as their guard is down. You must onow your mate's wants and needs the second she wants or needs them. Pay attention more often, mm?"

[Adofo]

Cole: ....Well.....okay. But trust me.....I already knew I was dumb. Both of my daughters are mad at me.....and Zekyu wasn't all that happy with me before all this either. ......I'm a failure as a mate and a father.

"I see." Zavok sighed. "My mother must feel that way, dying when I needed her most. She would be so proud to know her only child is the king." He looked away. "I was adopted into Zeena's family ten years before she was born. For the first few decades she thought I was her biological brother."

[Adofo]

Cole: Well....at least you have a family. What do I have?! A son that I haven't ruined...yet. Two daughters that'd rather see me die. And a mate that got spilt into two. One of which is lost and the other is a cub.
