"You will wed Cora and return to the human realm to do the job required and ordered by me," Lucifer said sternly. Faelon continued to slowly shake his head."I cannot stand that female. She is an obnoxious twit and not my type. I feel nothing for her and will rip her heart out and consume it if she is before me ever again," Faelon stated forcefully. Lucifer frowned as he rubbed his eyes in frustration."Human females are forbidden, what part of that isn't reaching your stubborn brain?" He asked bluntly then added, "that human woman will die soon. She will be murdered, which doesn't matter because her boyfriend isn't the one who pulls the trigger," Lucifer grunted, causing pain to engulf Faelon as he looked at Lucifer in horror."Let me return! Have your right hand wed that insane female demon. If I cannot have Sophia I will not have any other!" Faelon roared roughly. Lucifer eyed his left hand and sighed."Do you have feelings for that human female?" He asked curiously. Faelon shrugge
"As interesting as this conversation is, I must get to bed as I am due at work tomorrow," Phil said sullenly. Faelon raised his brow at him in confusion."You work? Like a normal human?" He questioned curiously and Phil nodded."I am an actual attorney. A well-paid one that is highly qualified and I have gained a fantastic reputation. I also do charity cases and that is how I met Sophia. As for sleeping arrangements…I will go to the guest bedroom. Goodnight Faelon and thanks for being forthcoming with me," he said honestly. Faelon gave him a head tip and told him was going to bunk with Atlas. Both angels went their separate ways unaware that Sophia had been listening to their conversation upstairs. When Phil headed back upstairs she rushed quickly and quietly back to the bedroom she had been in. All of them were unaware of the demon tracker and Vincent sitting in a car down the hill."The human is up that driveway," Nico said firmly. Vincent looked up the gravel drive. The thick trees
"I didn't sense anyone coming," Atlas mumbled softly. Faelon scowled and suggested he turn invisible and see who it is. Atlas nodded and vanished. Faelon watched Sophia coming down the stairs and he gestured for her to come quietly. She looked at him curiously and when she stood in front of him he grabbed her when the front door opened and held her tightly to his chest as he shielded her from whatever was coming inside. Atlas reappeared and gestured to the door."It's my father Rai," he said with a laugh. Faelon released Sophia and watched the dark death angel enter. "Hey Rai, surprised to see you here," Faelon stated firmly. Rai nodded and told him that he was there to speak with him privately. Sophia started to scoot off of his lap until Faelon told her she could stay."You have every right to know what is going on," Faelon stated solemnly. Sophia nodded and sat back down but insisted that it be next to him and not on his lap. Faelon tried putting his wings back. His back was so da
Faelon felt vulnerable standing there nude. He covered himself with his hands as the devil bellowed his disdain at him for marking a human."You marked a human when I strictly told you not to and your black wings are white-tipped!" Lucifer snarled. Faelon watched him with a smirk on his face. He was so thrilled with himself for losing his virginity to Sophia to have any care what the devil was saying to him."What do you have to say for yourself?" Lucifer questioned him."Perhaps you should find another to end Randall Mathis as I would like to enjoy my marked mate more," Faelon stated boldly causing Lucifer to explode in anger. The devil waved his hand and Faelon found himself in Lucifer's private dungeons. They were located directly underneath his bedroom of his house in hell. Faelon gritted his teeth as his eyes glanced around the dark and extremely hot cell. Faelon had been in the room before when he was young and unruly. At that time he wished for all things to burn. Since meeting
Sophia turned on the overhead light in the living room, illuminating the small room. Atlas pulled out two reaper cards that suddenly appeared in his back pocket. As his eyes raced across them, his brow furrowed."Hey Phil, check these out," he said, showing them both to the angel."How can that be, they both pass at the same time but in different locations," Phil mumbled in confusion. "Isn't that your home address?" Atlas asked grimly. Phil nodded, looking upset. Sophia asked them what was going on and Phil looked at her as he frowned."What did Vincent say about you being attached to Randall? His exact words, Sophia," he said sternly and she shrugged."Just that if I die my soul goes to his father," she answered. Atlas was rubbing his chin and cursed."Do you know what symbols he used? Did he say anything when he marked you?" He questioned curiously. Sophia began to panic and shook her head. "I don't know or remember," she muttered as her whole body began shaking. Sophia remembere
Sophia was experiencing PTSD symptoms at the mention of her attack. Every time Vincent's name was mentioned the trauma came rearing its ugly head. She was shaking her head and frowning. Her single eye looked dark and lost."I'm going to head to the hotel and see if the room you had is available, Faelon," Phil said firmly and stood.Atlas said he would go with him. Faelon pushed his healing warmth into Sophia as he told the two others to stop back when the sun was high. As Atlas opened the door a shower of gunfire rang out at both Atlas and Phil in a torrent of bullets. Faelon grabbed and transported himself and Sophia into Otis's office."Stay here and hide under the desk if you hear anyone approaching. I'm going to go help the other two," he said firmly. Sophia nodded then jerked his arm back."Please, be careful," she whimpered. Faelon pressed his lips firmly against hers giving a hard kiss and nodded."I will return, I promise," he swore as he brushed her chin and disappeared leavi
Sophia ran up the wood-planked metal stairs and went into the first room she saw. It was a bedroom and she noticed a telephone on the nightstand. She quickly lifted the handset and dialed the number for Otis's office. With her eyes facing the door she mumbled, "answer, please." When she heard Otis say hello she said, "Tell Phil I'm at a penthouse in the city. I don't know which one and Anthony is going to use me to take down Randall!" Otis was silent on the other line and all Sophia heard was a click and then a dial tone. She glanced at the receiver and frowning hung up the phone. Hearing the bedroom door open she turned and watched Anthony walk inside. Wringing her hands trying hard to keep her cool she stared nervously at the large man."It was a food delivery so you're safe to come down and eat with me," he said firmly. Sophia nodded as she hadn't eaten for a while and was hungry. "Thank you for not behaving in a preposterous manner. I despise females that let their emotions rule
Atlas's brother Hoka arrived immediately after Atlas had called and was shaking Phil's hand. The guardian angel was a bit concerned about the male due to his spiked black hair and both his arms covered in nautical-themed tattoos. He also mentioned that the female that was the concern wasn't at the hotel."How am I to read this human if she isn't here, brother?" Hoka asked Atlas bluntly."Can you just reverse the spell put on her? Give her soul back to herself or something," Atlas mumbled softly, seeing Hoka frowning at him."It was most likely a ritual and no I cannot simply reverse it," he sighed in frustration. Phil suggested that they all return to the room so they could include Faelon in the discussion. Atlas nodded and told his brother to come along. "If this Faelon knows this female I might be able to connect to her through his memories if he was close with her," Hoka mentioned as they climbed up the stairs. Atlas nodded and elbowed Phil. "They were VERY close, Faelon marked h
