Chapter 16 - Race Against Time
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Juan and Maria visited Miguel in the hospital the same day the attack happened, but unfortunately he was unconscious after a heavy operation. Miguel had almost all of his body covered with bandages, and had a cast on his left arm, right hand, ribs, and left leg.
- Oh my God, what did they do to him.- Juan spoke up, walking into the room and looking at his friend from head to toe.- Not them...- said Maria.- I saw only one man.- she added confidently.- That's impossible... Miguel could easily handle one attacker, he's tough and always was good at fighting, especially in self-defense.- Juan replied incredulously.- One man, yes, he could handle...- Maria sighed, sitting on the edge of the bed.- Do you mean it wasn't a human? A person who attacked him?- Juan asked, walking up to her and giving a questioning look.- It was certainly not a human, but what exactly? I do not know. All I know is that this thing has something to do with Nadir, only it is moreRelated chapters
Light & Darkness: Book 2 Chapter 17 - The Ritual
Samael was happier than usual that day. The message he had received from Nathaniel really pleased him. In the end he got everything his way, exactly as he wanted - Nadir will succumb to him. For someone with so much confidence, this was not a great surprise. From the very first moment Samael felt that Nadir was going to be a difficult journey, but he also knew that she would eventually succumb to him, it couldn't have ended otherwise. And no matter that for that to happen, some human had to die, so Nadir would lose her meaning in life and willingness to resist along with it - after all, any measure was useful, if it worked in the end - that was Samael's opinion.Lilith, on the other hand, was boiling with anger to see him in such a bubbly mood, especially since Samael was blocking his thoughts from her and she could not read the reason for this sudden joy. In some ways, Lilith was very much like Samael - she hated it too when things were not going as she intended, sometimes was

At the same time as Maria, Juan, and Miguel were performing a ritual to seek her out from the Underworld and try to contact, Nadir was already with Samael, in one of the palace's bedrooms.- You came to me at last, what a good girl. And what was the point in resisting for so long? You will not regret your decision, I will take care of you properly. Soon you will be screaming my name in ecstasy.- he greeted her, smiling triumphantly.- Ok, whatever. Let's get it over with.- Nadir spoke up, looking at him with resigned eyes. His words clearly didn't make any impression on her, she just wanted them to get down to business so she would be able to go back to her cave as soon as possible.- Of course, my lady.- Samael replied, taking her hand gently and leading deeper into the bedroom. There he kissed her first on the lips, then began to descend over her neck and shoulders, wrapping his arms around waist and bringing Nadir closer to him. Samael hands greedily explored her b
Light & Darkness: Book 2 Chapter 19 - Two Reunions
Lilith said about the decision of Nadir to Lucifer when she visited him the next day. He, of course, did not hide his dissatisfaction, but just as Lilith, Lucifer could not do anything about it, after all, their child was generally more powerful than any of them, so they had to respect her choice. Hybrids like Nadir were rarely born, and it was hard to tell what would grow out of them.The truth was that Lilith could easily create new succubus and incubus, but getting really pregnant was a miracle, since she was banished from Paradise by God and therefore didn't got the life-giving privilege that Adam's later wife, Eve, had. That is why Lilith was very happy when, after many trials with Lucifer, she finally somehow managed to get pregnant and give birth to an absolutely healthy Nadir. Of course, she had a lot of the succubus in her, for after all, Lilith creations were made in her image, but there was also an element of Lucifer's power in Nadir, which made her very special and

When he finally released her from his embrace, convinced that she was absolutely real, Miguel stood in the doorway, staring at Nadir in constant disbelief.- So how is it gonna be? Will you let me in?- she asked, smiling at him.- Of course, come in.- Miguel replied hastily, inviting her inside.- So you came back finally...- he added, hugging his beloved one more time.- I had no other choice when I found out you are alive.- Nadir said with a broad smile.- Tell me exactly what happened when we lost contact with you during the ritual.- Miguel sat down on the couch with Nadir, looking at her expectantly.- Well...- Nadir began her story.- First of all, you lost contact with me because I turned into a Fallen Angel and you asked for contact with a succubus. Then I wanted to tear Samael apart for this story with you, but Lilith suddenly appeared...- she paused, but soon started talking again.- And she told me who I really am, just the daughter of Lilith and Luci

Juan and Miguel went out together for a beer at their favorite bar on the weekend. They talked about everything that had happened in the past month, how their world had just turned upside down. What once seemed impossible to them happened right before their eyes.- You know what, Juan? I still can't believe what happened to us.- Miguel said, taking a long sip of beer from his mug.- You know it. I think everyone would feel weird being in our shoes.- Juan agreed fully with him.- I want to ask you for some advice... I'm going to propose to Nadir, but I don't know if I chose the right ring.- Miguel said, changing the subject and opening a small box before his friend's eyes.- It's very lovely. In my opinion, Nadir will be delighted. Besides, you two love each other like crazy, so such things doesn't really matter.- Juan replied, looking at the ring with the diamond neatly cut into the shape of a heart.- Have you noticed this interesting situation?- he asked, lookin
Light & Darkness: Book 2 ~Prologue: Foreword~
In order for the readers to fully understand the content of the book, I cite the characters that will appear in the novel:Succubus (def.) - (Middle-Latin: succubus; from Latin: succuba - "concubine") - in demonology, succubus are demons who take the form of unearthly beautiful women, haunting men in their dreams and tempting them with sexual intercourse. Many sources say that the succubus' motivation is to drain life energy. It is also said that through sexual intercourse with men, succubus collected their sperm, which incubbus later used to impregnate women, and children thus begotten would be especially vulnerable to the influence of Satan.Lilith - Mesopotamian demon kidnapping children. This character is sometimes called the first wife of the biblical Adam. Perhaps Lilith has a connection with Inanna, the Sumerian goddess of war and sexual pleasure. There are many variations of the myth about Lilith: Jerome associated her
Light & Darkness: Book 2 Chapter 1 - Emptiness
Miguel Romero was a young lawyer living in the Mexican capital. He attended an American college, but after finishing school and apprenticeships, he returned to his native country. Miguel was a fairly tall and slender man with broad shoulders, a dark complexion, black eyes and slightly curly hair of the same color. The features of his face were very masculine and looked like carved out of stone, and he had a little bit of facial hair. His apartment was quite modest: it consisted of a living room with an open kitchen, a tiny bathroom and one bedroom. The bathroom contained a toilet, a washbasin, a shower and a washing machine, and in the small bedroom there was a double bed, a wardrobe, a desk with a computer and a chair, a shelf above the desk, full of books, and a whole lot of documents and files stacked in two cardboard boxes on the floor - these were papers he took home to work on. Before, Miguel never took his work home, but recently he preferred to work around the clock ju
Light & Darkness: Book 2 Chapter 2 - The Party
Miguel showed up just on time for Juan's party. His friend greeted him very cordially, and of course She appeared at his side, smiled slightly and hugged him as well. The scent of her hair and skin drove Miguel to despair, so he quickly moved away from her, but gently, without looking at the girl's face. He didn't want to cause himself more pain. Then everyone went further into the apartament, Maria also disappeared somewhere in the crowd, and Juan occasionally offered Miguel a drink or a snack. The music was very good, but that didn't make him want to dance. Finally, Juan went to the dance floor in search of his beloved. An hour and a half of the party passed when Miguel's friend stood in the center, asking for everyone's attention, holding the blissful Maria's hand.- I'd like to announce our engagement. Of course, each of you, dear friends, may already feel invited to the wedding.- Juan announced, looking first at the gathered people, then at his fiance. Maria showed everyon

Light & Darkness: Book 2 Chapter 15 - Terrible Message
Maria was making breakfast for herself and Juan, and was just taking plates out of the cupboard when her eyes fogged up. A picture of some unknown man torturing Miguel flashed before her eyes. The presence of washbasins and cubicles made her believe that this was happening in the toilet, probably in the office, because Miguel was wearing the same gray suit he always wore to work. Seeing the pain in his eyes, Maria felt as if it was real. She even felt his feelings and emotions, even though was far away from him. The plates in her hand fell limp to the ground, breaking into tiny pieces.Juan burst into the kitchen, hearing the clink of porcelain. Seeing his wife's blurry, distant eyes, he grabbed her shoulders and shook her.- Mari, can you hear me?- he said as she finally blinked her eyes.- Juan... Call the office, the one where Miguel works. Quickly, he is in great danger. Deadly danger.- Maria spoke up hastily, panic growing in her eyes.Juan, seeing the terro
Light & Darkness: Book 2 Chapter 14 - The Silence Before the Storm
After the car accident and meeting with Nathaniel, the Fallen Angel, sent from the Underworld by Samael himself on a mission to bring Nadir back, Miguel and her returned home and went to bed almost immediately. Nadir thought all night about what to do. It was safest to just stop resisting and come back, but she didn't want to give up without a fight, so decided she would resist as long as possible. After all, that's what Nadir has been doing for a longer time, isn't it? She resisted Samael's orders and was doing quite well. The easiest way to defeat Samael was to report on him to Lilith, but Nadir couldn't risk that her "mother" would find out what connected her and Miguel, and that Nadir had no intention of returning to the Underworld. Lilith would certainly punish her for such disobedience, though perhaps less severely than Samael. For Miguel, however, the result would be the same - he would be killed by both Samael and Lilith. Overall, Nadir could not come to anyone in the Underw
Light & Darkness: Book 2 Chapter 13 - Discovering the Truth
Nathaniel felt he had collected sufficient evidence against Nadir. Therefore, when he went to the Underworld to regain his strength, he no longer came to the surface, but immediately to the palace to report everything to Samael.- So what information do you bring me?- asked Samael, seeing his subject.- Nadir is on the surface, and she is there with the mortal man.- Nathaniel began talking.- But this is not the end of the revelation. Our demoness apparently wants to settle there permanently, since Nadir found a job in some bar, lives with this mortal man, to whom she clearly feels something, and begins to feel human emotions and feelings, she is moved, cries...- he finished.- What? But these are the symptoms of a transformation into a mortal!- Samael shouted.- In the end she will lose her supernatural abilities, longevity and...- he paused.- We have to get her out of there right now!- Samael added, a bit panicked.- Of course, my lord.- Nathaniel bowed.- I even
