The vampire goddess, Kali, sat next to me in an elaborate castle I had fabricated on the moon to watch over my children. It was invisible to the human eye but often visited by other gods and goddesses.

Before us stood the wall-sized mirror I’d fabricated, which gave a view into the lives of my blessed children. Currently, we watched Jane particularly, and Gabriel, Kali’s favored one.

“Thanks to a little help from your Gabriel,” I reminded her, as I tipped my wineglass to her.

She touched her glass to mine, creating a tinkling sound before bringing it back to her blood-red lips.

“I admit I had my doubts that it would work out this way. Gabriel never disappoints me, though. He’s my treasured creation,” Kali admitted.

“You have every reason to be proud,” I agreed.

“Your daughters seem to be faring well,” Kali remarked.

She suddenly sat forward in her chair and shushed me, “Be quiet now. I want to see this part.”

I chuckled in amusement; I hadn’t said anything.
