Lilibeth was sitting comfortably while looking outside of a coffee shop near a college university. She didn’t come here to relax or to unwind. She was basically stalking someone. And that is a secret even to all her demons.She stared at the young man that walked along with some bad-looking classmates. If she’s not mistaken, he’s named Orith. Urie’s younger brother.Lilibeth has been looking after this troubled kid for some time now. And she is the one responsible for keeping him out of danger. But she works on her own accord. And not in anyone's order. For her own personal reasons.She’s been very careful not to let anyone notice this. Not Urie or Axel. Especially not Lucifer. For he might use this as his leverage to take advantage of her weakness.She had been looking for his son, Asmon. After his husband, Samael used his powers to free their only son from Lucifer’s grasp. The latter perished. And their son vanished. It took her centuries to find traces of her son.She had promised
“Orith,” Urie was resolute on patching things up between his family. And he wants to start with his beloved brother.“What are you doing here?” he asked in a hostile manner. He was expecting his group to arrive at any time. And he doesn’t want to be teased if seen with his gay brother. “You should leave, I have something important to do.”“They’re not coming.” Urie was sure of what he said. Earlier on, Axel told him that he will take care of Orith’s Bad-influence friends. Only so that he will have enough time to talk with his brother. He knew Axel will go easy on them if they ever try to go against his will.Meanwhile,“Who are you? ” the leader of the gang asked Axel as he blocked their path with his very expensive car. “We don’t remember having pissed a rich boy. Or are you a brother of one?” the gang leader along with his minions laughed?Why are young people so foolish to think that mere words are the most hurtful things a person can inflict on someone?“You’re right about one thi
A hard slap touched Urie’s face. His father was so angry after he told him that Orith had gone missing.Axel stood beside him clutching his fist. He knew how Axel tried to restrain himself from hurting his father for slapping him.“How can you let your brother disappear like that?” Urie’s father directed his glare at Axel who stood quietly behind him.“Are you so flirtatious that you put your boyfriend first before your own brother?” its stare went back on Urie.“Dad,” his mother tried to calm his father. So did his older sister who went on his side after he got slapped.That’s it. He did his best not to let his emotions overpower him. But hearing his father mock Axel in front of him. Made him lose his patience.“Now, I’m supposed to be the one responsible?” everyone else in the room was shocked by his sudden burst of anger. It was the first time Urie had let his feelings flow freely. He was always quiet and lets everyone around him talk him out of anything.But he had enough of it. O
“Shouldn’t it be easier to kill Asmon now? Then let him be awakened later?” Lucas dared to propose.“That’s not an option. I told Urie that I won’t let anyone hurt him or his family. And I intend to keep it that way.”Lucas can’t help but let out a frustrated shrug.He knows too well how dangerous it is for Axel to keep an enemy as strong as Asmon. But how can he defy his master’s wishes?“Shall we go to Urie’s house?” he asked as they both got in the car.“No. I’m not in the mood to lie to his face right now.” Axel began to rub his forehead. Juggling your love life and principles wasn’t that easy of a task.“ Let’s just go back to the mansion.”He was surprised to see that Urie was waiting for him there all along.Lucas turned his back to hide his chuckle.“I’ll be upstairs if you need me,” said Lucas. And boy, how he ached to burn the devil down to ashes at that very moment.“Is there a problem?” Urie noticed how uncomfortable he is.He forced a smile. And started to hug his cute bo
“Master, I have good news to bear.”“What is it?” Lucifer’s attention was called upon by the demon that’s been following Lilibeth.“I have learned that the demon Queen has abducted the angel Muriel’s younger brother. “Mammon who stood beside lucifer’s throne threw a look of suspicion at him.“It might have something to do with Asmon.” said the demon of greed.“Well see if it does. If Asmon is really alive, then he will come to me once he awakens.”At that moment. Azazel was silently eves-dropping at one side of the throne.Axel has to know about this. He thought to himself. And left the room the way he came in. Without anyone noticing.“Shouldn’t we come to take him ourselves?”“That won’t be needed. Even without my biding, my enemies will be his. He will destroy everything even if I don’t tell him to do so.”The demon of Greed nodded in agreement.Asmon had always been known to be loyal to all of Lucifer’s followers. And one of the strongest amongst them. Only he can exceed Axel’s s
All three arrived at Lilibeth’s house, namely Axel, Lucas, and Rain. And was surprised to see everyone present as if the meeting was actually arranged.They sat silently in the open living room. Lilibeth, Adam, Gabriel and Urie. The latter did not even bother to throw a glance at Axel. Who was caught red-handed by Lilibeth’s secret.“You all knew about this?”Adam was the first to break the silence. Looking at the newly arrived. Specifically, Rain. Who had that stare that says,And you are the one with the questions? How could you end up in your ex-wives house?“Urie-” Axel tried to talk to his lover. But was coldly rejected.“Where’s my brother?” Urie uttered not taking to account that Axel was talking to him. The angel stared directly at Lilibeth.“He’s still sleeping. Don’t worry, he’s in good condition. If that’s what you’re worried about.” Lilibeth can’t help but feel uneasy at Urie’s stare. It wasn’t a very warm one.“I’ll take him back now.” Urie stood abruptly. From which Axel
“Hey, hey,” Adam almost failed to grab Rain’s hand as the latter walked so fast trying to avoid him.“You should listen to me first.”“What? Are you frustrated that you didn’t get to bang your ex-wife? With everyone arriving soon then you expected?”Rain started throwing punches on his shoulders and chest. While trying to hold back his tears.Adam immediately pulled Rain close. And restrained his struggles.“You said you love me that night. Yet, I see you here at your ex-wives house?” Rain’s sobbing got buried deep in his shirt. As he hugged Rain tightly.“Since the beginning of time. Lilibeth and I never surrendered to each other. And that includes the ‘banging’.” he refrained himself from laughing.“ You are my first and my last, whether in the Garden of Eden. The drylands, and even if you’re reincarnated as a plant. I’ll forever love and take care of you and no one else.”Rain’s struggle began to subside. While his hand encircles Adam’s back.A smile suddenly crossed both their lip
Axel felt Urie’s presence approaching him from behind.“You don’t have to comfort me on anything. I just need alone time for myself.”He heard a gentle sniff. And a hug from behind caused him to stir.“I know I’m not the one that you loved first. But I don’t want to think that I’m just a replacement.”He turned to face the sobbing angel. And gently wiped the tears with his finger.“If I would have to choose between you from then and now. I won’t have to think twice.” he saw how fear engulfed Urie’s face. Waiting for his next reply.But as soon as he could utter a word. The angel Rafael appeared.“You two should come with me.”The others sensed another entity's arrival. Rushed to see who the uninvited guest was.“Angel Rafael.” Lilibeth suddenly dropped kneeling on the ground where Rafael stood.“Please, spare my son. He is not yet awakened.”“Rest assured Lilibeth, I didn’t come here for him this time. But if God so wishes. I have no other choice but to slay them both. So forgive me.”
She stood looking at George. While the latter was busy preparing their breakfast.“I need to tell you something.”George saw how serious she was. And was ready to listen.“Go on.”“I’m not what you think I am. At least, not what you would normally think of me.”“You’re not breaking up with me, are you?”“No. Not that I would want to. Not unless you decide it after hearing what I have to say.”“Which is?”“I’m not a mortal. But a demon. And a queen at that.” she made every word as clear as it could get. So that George could easily grasp the idea.The latter let out a relieved sigh.“I thought you were actually breaking up with me.” And continued to make sandwiches.“Hey, did you just hear what I said?”“Yes, that you’re not human but a devil. And a queen maybe?”“And?”“And what?” George threw back the question.“You don’t believe me, do you?”The latter shrugged upon her frustrated reaction.“I already knew everything even before meeting you that day. But I must admit, it was scarier
Sarah’s day of departure.Everyone was there except Orith. He seemed to be avoiding Sarah ever since he heard the news about her leaving.Although, it was brief. She had always liked how Orith was always there to make her feel better.She’ll definitely miss his popping out of nowhere. Bringing him snacks and making her laugh all the time. With his silly jokes.Even until the call for departure was announced. No Orith was seen anywhere.She had to leave with her shoulders slouched. And the pain that she would never see Orith again for the next few years.He might have someone special the moment she gets back.That thought merely squeezed her heart. Her eyes started to tear up without her knowing.She was given a first-class seat. One of the perks of being Axel Cartiliers younger sister.Though none of that made her happy.A passenger next to her arrived from the toilet. It sat silent and began to sleep. She was still busy looking elsewhere when she turned her glance. Something seemed f
“I’ve been accepted.” Sarah happily told Axel and Lucas. Who she considered being his family and older brothers since. Urie was there as well, as the two almost never left each other's side.“That’s good news,” Axel uttered. “But you really don’t need to study far away from us. We can always get you a high position in the company once you graduate.”“And besides, the company will need someone to run it someday. If we ever decide to get married soon.” Lucas added.Axel and Urie threw a suspicious look at Lucas.“I know, but wouldn’t it be better if I can achieve everything without you guys always backing me up?” it sounded more like a pleading than a question asked.“Fine. But promise that you’d call us every time a problem arises, deal?” said Axel.“Deal.” Sarah went to hug his two demon brothers.As well as her sister-in-law. Urie.***“What’s the problem?” Axel noticed Urie’s silence ever since they left the mansion. They’re on their way to the latter’s house.“I’m just worried abou
Eight months passed by so quickly. But for some, it was longer than a million years combined. The ones that longed for someone they can't be with anymore.Everyone noticed how sad Lucas was since that day Gabriel had to say goodbye."Would you want to hang out together?" Axel felt like he needed to cheer his brother. He had already asked Urie for a boy's night out with Adam and Orith."Shouldn't you be hanging out with your boyfriend?" Lucas had one eyebrow lifted. He knows what Axel is trying to do."How many times do I have to tell you guys, that I'm alright?" he had his voice heightened a bit. Just so the ones behind his office door could hear him clearly.He knew that everyone's worried about them lately. But what makes it worst is when they make it more obvious. By rubbing it in.Other than Lilibeth, who was always content having his son around. He was the only one without a partner. And in those times, he misses Gabriel's angry reaction each and every time."Just, let me be alon
Kristoff stood with a wide grin on his face.There was a terrified look on Muriel's face. As he stared at Axel who shielded him from the attack.He wanted to save Axel first. But the latter had the tables turned. And used its body to cover him."You sure know how to make someone's heart flutter."Kristoff said in a mocking voice.A flush of blood flowed through its mouth. As it held on to the sword that Archangel Michael had thrust on him."No wonder, Urie had chosen you over anyone."It continued to cough in a weakened manner."He deserves to be with someone who can protect him even with his life. "Axel and Muriel had their eyes fixed on each other. Remembering how it all came to be. And how it would all end.With Muriel back to his old duties as an archangel. And Axel is with the one he chooses to love. Which was Urie.Kristoff's body crashed down the floor lifeless. Everything else faded along with it.They then heard a cry of defeat coming from Lucifer. Who had all his follower's
With all the chaos going on. Lucifer and the other princes of hell except Azalel were at battle with the angels. While Orith used Asmon’s powers to help Lilibeth and the others to stop the humans from destroying the earth.It was until the battle of heaven reached earth. That Asmon had to literally unseal himself to help stop the other fallen angels.It was a fight that marked the start of a new alliance.***“Why do you love Azalel so much? When he can’t even tell the one he loves from before and now?” Kristoff produced an image of Muriel and Axel from way back.If Urie had seen this, he might have fallen for Kristoff’s trap. Muriel thought to himself.But for him, it was just a memory of a beautiful past he had shared with the young Azalel. The one he thought, would make a better ruler than Lucifer.“Can’t you see? He doesn’t really love you. It was the angel Muriel then, and even now.” Kristoff tried swaying him. As he thought of him as Urie. “You’re just a replacement for somethin
Urie found himself inside a huge palace room. No one was around except the eerie silence.He roamed every part to look for his family.That’s when he ended up on the back balcony of the highest floor.She saw a very disturbing scene.An army of people stood in front of the palace grounds unmoving. They were all under the spell of hypnosis.In that group, Urie saw his parents and elder sister standing in the middle. There were about thousands of people there.“Mom, Dad, Elly,” he refrained himself from shouting.Who knows what these people will do if they get disturbed for some reason.“Did you like what I’ve prepared for our wedding?” he jumped at the sound of Kristoff’s voice from his back. “Everyone’s invited, except your friends and lover. I hope you don’t mind.” it had that wicked grin on its handsome face.“You’ll have to kill me first before you can get me to marry you.”“Oh no, I wouldn’t do to that to you.”Kristoff took a few steps closer. “But if you beg me. I might consider
Later on, Sarah and Orith joined them outside.Axel’s eyes roamed around for Adam and Urie.“Where’s Urie?”“I’m here.” he turned around to find Urie smiling at him the way he used to.He went up to hug the latter. “I’m glad you’re okay.”“I’m fine. You don’t need to worry.”“Where’s Adam?” he asked Rain as soon as he separated himself from Urie.“He’s still weak from the hypnosis. I left him resting upstairs.”“I see,”Why does he feel like there is something off in that situation?“We need to plan on how to stop the chaos outside. If these continue. Lucifer and the anti-christ will definitely get their way.”Lucas interrupted his thinking.“Why don’t you stay here for a while?” he said turning his glance on Urie. “I don’t want you to end up the same way again.”“No, I want to come.”Urie insisted. “I may be of help in stopping him. I’m the one he wants.”“The more you need to stay here. You’re not safe with him around.”“I want to be sure that my family is safe. Please, just let me co
“You need to see this.” Rain hurried to bring Urie in front of the tv screen.Right then, a live broadcast is being held. It’s an interview about a known veterinarian at a very young age. And has the looks that go head to head with the famous billionaire. Azalel Cartillier.“It’s Kristoff,” he uttered.They were having a discussion at his house along with everyone. But the main purpose of it was to talk about how to defeat the antichrist. And prevent the end times. As they say.“What is he planning to do now?” it had its eyebrows drawn in one line.“I don’t really feel good about this.” Rain uttered.The others were having a fine talk. All headed to the living room. Where the three of them were.“Is that-?” Orith tried to say the name. But Sarah had already shushed him.They all came to listen to the interview. While trying to figure out. What the anti-christ is up to.“Say, Mr.North star, ‘Kristoff has known the last name.’ do you have someone in your heart now? A lover perhaps?”Kri
