Our footsteps echoed in unison as we hurriedly walked towards the parking lot, my brother and I following Azrael from close behind, I, focusing my gaze on my soft pink chucks making contact with the concrete alley as I was too afraid to face either of them for two very different reasons.“Okay, can someone tell me WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?” Rick’s enraged tone rang in my ears as he shouted from right next to me, disrupting the thickly tensed silence, drawing my attention to him, noticing how he carelessly waved the gun in his hand like it was nothing.Yeah, you keep doing that, bro. It’s not like we had drawn enough attention on us already anyways.“Just shut up and go unlock the car. You’ll get your answers later,” Azrael’s deep, slightly rusty voice commanded, sounding rather irritated already, not even bothering to turn around and face him.However, Rick didn’t seem fazed at all and much to my horror he even walked faster and tried to grab Azrael’s bare shoulder but thankfully, I mov
After a painfully long and very awkward ride, we finally reached Luc’s estate -as Azrael demanded- and I quickly bolted out of the car, rushing to put as much distance as possible between us, struggling to calm down my racing heart and wretched nerves.Standing just a few feet away from the car on the concrete alley I took a deep breath, closing my eyes for a brief moment, still feeling a ghost of the warm sensation wherever his skin had made contact with mine, making it even harder for me to calm down.Damnit... Why can’t I just stop feeling like this?“I don’t care who the fuck you are, you’re paying for this, man!”I could hear my brother’s annoyed tone, shouting at Azrael from somewhere behind me, clearly referring to the entirely missing door of his car, making me lightly shake my head in disapproval at his arrogance.My brother really is something. Just about an hour ago, he had found out that Raz is an Archangel, and now he is arguing with him over his damn car!Azrael obviousl
Anger...sadness...hurt...Those same three emotions kept swirling inside of me as I sat all alone in the back garden, my back leaning against the same tree -my favorite tree now- my bare legs stretched on the freshly cut grass, watching the sun slowly set down, leaving behind a trail of orange at the horizon, the warm wind breeze slowly drying up my wet cheeks.There were no more tears left, only that same, awful sensation in the pit of my stomach and a bitter taste in my mouth.Once again, I found myself asking that same question;What has my life become?When the hell did we get to this? From fighting over a stupid damn party to fighting the fucking Archangel of Destruction...I ran the back of my hand over my cheeks, wiping off the lingering wetness as I let out a heavy sigh, slowly closing my red and heavy eyelids, allowing silence and tranquility to take over.Only it didn’t last too long...Because in the very next moment I felt a presence right next to me, the warmth emanated f
“Come, we don’t have much time,” Luc stated as he hurriedly walked towards the front door with Azrael and Raph flanking his sides while Rick, Leila and I were following like little puppies, a little taken aback by their sudden hustle.I increased my pace as we walked past the front doors, trying to catch up with his long strides as I asked,“Wait! Where are we going?”“We are going to take you guys somewhere safe,” He stated, his voice dripping with seriousness as he suddenly turned around, facing us.“What? Why? What’s wrong with this place?” I asked, staring at him in confusion.He sighed, nervously running a hand through his dark locks as he said,“Look, this is neither the right time nor place to talk about this but once we get there, I promise you’ll get your answers, okay?”“Okay...” I reluctantly nodded, giving up then started walking on the alley towards the car only to be suddenly stopped in my tracks when I suddenly heard him ask,“Wait, where are you going?”I quickly spun
The soothing warmth his strong body was emanating soon started to gradually relax my every sense and before I could even realize, I started to slowly drift to dream-land, my forehead still resting in the crook of his neck, his fresh masculine scent filling up my nostrils with every steady, slow breath I took.A soft commotion suddenly broke me out of my trance, hearing the soft thud of his boots landing on the ground and my eyelids quickly fluttered open, taking in the darkness surrounding us, hearing the waves crashing against the shoreline, obviously spiking my curiosity towards our current location so without any other hesitance I lowered my feet on the ground, taking a few steps forward, gazing at the beautiful, modern mansion standing tall right in front of our eyes, just a couple of feet away from the shoreline.“Where are we?” I quietly asked, averting my gaze towards the beautiful beach, looking at the waves glistening in the moonlight, crashing on the shoreline.“Somewhere sa
“But...what does Abbadon have to do with all this?” I asked, staring at him with a hint of curiosity.He slowly lowered his gaze to the wooden floor, looking seriously conflicted as he quietly answered,“She...thinks of you as a threat... So, this means she would team up with anyone that wants to hurt you.”“But why...why would she consider me a threat?” I asked, watching how he slowly raised his gaze back to meet my own, his deep blue irises now swirling with a burning emotion as he quietly replied,“She...suspects that I...have feelings towards you...”As soon as those words escaped his plump lips, my cheeks reddened, quickly lowering my gaze to my lap as I found myself momentarily lost for words, quietly mumbling,“Oh...”Obviously feeling too damn embarrassed to ask anything else about that I quickly changed the topic, asking that one question that kept bugging me from a while now,“Um...did you guys like, date...or something?”He lightly shook his head as he quickly replied,“No.
LuciferAs soon as my black shoes landed on the stone pavement I quickly adjusted my vision, fitting for the constant darkness and hurried towards the grand wooden doors, guarded by the two warrior demons, submissively bowing their big, hideous heads as soon as they noticed me coming.To any human, they would seem incredibly frightening as they were twice my size, with pitch black eyes that consumes your very soul and teeth sharper than a shark’s... But to me, they were mere puppies, begging for master’s attention.Holding the doors open, they mouthed a small “majesty” and I dismissively waved a hand then strode past them, walking down the main hallway, heading straight towards my chambers, intending to find an outfit more fitting for what was to come...I was going to torture the whole Hell if I had to, in order to obtain my answers.What did they want from her?Why would any of my kind take so much interest in her, the “little human”?Does her soul worth that much?Or is it somethin
BlakeDamn, I look like a five year old that stole mom’s clothes.I stared at myself in the mirror for the millionth time, checking the supposed “outfit” Raph provided for me, frowning unsatisfied.It was a summer white dress that was supposed to cling tightly on my torso and fall just above my knees, but because I was thinner and smaller than the average at my age, it fell loosely on my slim body, the thin straps constantly slipping over my shoulders, threatening to completely fall off any moment now.Damn, I really need to buy some proper clothes. I can’t walk around looking like this.Ugh, damn you, Luc.Why did you have to drag us here, to god-knows-where, without even letting us pack anything at all?Slipping on my soft pink chucks, I checked my outfit one last time before exiting my room, intending to go find Raph and drag him to go shopping with me.So I went down the hallway and knocked on his door a few times, only to receive no response.Hmm, maybe he’s already downstairs.I
