All the angels from the Veil came to the island waiting outside the barriers. They needed to say goodbye to their general to their brother to the first angel created. Still holding Michael close to me. I opened a door for them to pay their respects. The others had built a pyre for him. Now I had to burn him, turn him into ash. I’ll never be able to touch his soft skin again, kiss those lips, hear him laugh, feel his hard body next to mine at night. I’ll never witness art in motion again as he soared through the sky. He was lethal and loving. He was mine.

Using my power, I brought him to the pyre. Hovering above his body, I gently unwrapped his head. Caressing his face one last time. “I never in all my life thought I’d be saying goodbye to you. I love you, Michael. Rest now, my love.” I kissed his forehead and laid one more soft kiss on his lips. Rewrapping his head. I floated above him, my bow in hand. I gold feather dipped in silver appeared. I nocked it, turning towards the sky I re

    One by one, the angels of the veil said their goodbyes. And one by one they all the angels returned to the Veil. All except seven still on bended knee. My seven. I didn’t want to deal with them now. I asked them to rise. I didn't bother to look at them or even acknowledge that they were speaking to me, so I just flew off. I needed to lie down in our bed, I mean my bed now. I needed Michael.Landing in the courtyard, I was met by my guardians. Adrian gathered me in his arms. I let him he brought me to my quarters. He laid me on my bed. Held my hand for a moment before I pulled it free. I turned away from him, and Michael’s scent hit me. I almost lost it right then and there. Nefertari brought her wolves. They jumped on my bed to encompass me in their warmth. Adrian and Nefertari left, closing the door quietly behind them. I cried so hard I couldn’t catch my breath. My body shaking, my breathing becoming ragged my voice hoarse. I cried until I had no voice, till my eyes swelled shut.

    I don't remember falling asleep. Michael's really gone. Was all I could focus on. He was gone no phantom Michael, nothing. I woke up alone. The wolves had left my room. Nefertari probably got them to train. I should check on my guardians and I will but first … Reaching out mentally, I searched for any piece of Michael. I searched for any kind of sign, any presence. I scanned the veil where the souls of the Divine were, scanning every soul on earth nothing; not a sign; not a trace. As if he never existed.Reaching out again, touching each of my bonded guardians. They were training, they felt me, acknowledged me. And continued their training. If I needed them I would call them they knew that. I know they were grieving right there with me. I felt it. As horrible and as selfish as this sounds, I wasn't strong enough to deal with their grief. I was barely handling my own.Reaching out once more this time to the seven unbonded angels. They stood in front of the training ground at attention.

    "Hello, Sariel." with a small nod, she acknowledged me. Tall and lean and perfectly sun-kissed regal elegance graced this angel. One of the deadliest of angels ever created a real predator. Dark straight hair is worn in a high ponytail. Peridot eyes that sparkled even at night, lined with long dark lashes, her perfect high cheekbones. A straight nose and rounded lips colored deep red. Her beauty drew you in, and like a black widow, she'll end while showing you love. Peridot wings dripped in emerald angel dust. One word described her, and she couldn't hide it or deny it. Lethal.Next to her stood Parisa attractive features, she always reminded me of a fairie. She was fierce as hell, with the same inferior attitude of the Faye. Pale blonde curly hair cascaded down her back. No way would anyone see her coming. Big bright crystal blue eyes and a cute button nose with full pink heart-shaped lips. She was shorter than the average angel. Her gold and silver staff at her side, ready for anyt

    Hmm… now if there ever were a cocky angel, this would be the one. Shoulder length sandy brown hair with gold highlights and straight pointy nose. Piercing grey eyes that could effortlessly reflect your soul; a strong square jaw. Provocative lips with a smirk permanently plastered to his face. Muscles that could rival the god Aries himself. Yes, he was real and damn hot too. His skin is naturally golden. His wings could have been dipped in gold between them laid Ronin's bow. His bow and quiver matching his wings. Echonaian prayers engraving the bow. Pretty boy Ronin.Malak is known for being calculating. With his short black hair that nearly grazed his shoulders. Dark chocolate hooded almond eyes that betrayed no emotion, the intelligence behind those eyes was scary. A very defined Cupid's bow on those gorgeous swollen lips. Smooth tan skin except for the stubble that graced his jaw. He was tall like Seph with more muscle to him. His wings were a real thing of beauty. Dark as night wit

    Gabriel was a competent leader and loyal to my parents. If I were in his place, could I have defied my parents? No, I couldn't. I scanned his thoughts again. Apparently, they've been waiting to enter the fortress for four days now. They haven't been able to train or interact with the other guardians. My bonded guardians felt as I did. Or maybe I was projecting my feelings on them, making them feel like they didn't have a choice. Is it selfish and shameful of me that I wanted it to Gabriel? I could hear Michael's voice in my head, "but they are yours now too." I rolled my eyes at Michaels make-believe scolding. "Okay, okay, your right."Holding back tears, I grabbed my bow and a white feather, turning the feather into an arrow. Using the arrow to cut my hand. I smeared my blood all over the tip. Shooting it their direction, phasing the arrow through walls it hitting all seven angels at once. The arrow gathered their blood as well; mixing mine with theirs. Calling the arrow back to

    Each team, including mine, went and spoke the true word of my parents to small towns surrounding big cities. We were met at first with a lot of backlash but quickly won them over. When it was time to approach the large cities, we all went together. Stronger together than apart. Lucifer and Lilith's demonic influence was felt the strongest in the big cities. We fought many of the fallen along the way. We showed no mercy and left none alive.Romans cities like the one we're in were beyond corrupted this city was made for the sadistic pleasures of man.

    Being careful to never drawing in large crowds like my brother. Yes, we performed miracles, just not to the masses like my twin. Too much attention brought trouble, little by little would take longer but would be more effective. We made sure to obscure our faces with a bright holy light and made a show of having our wings noticed. That was only when we drew in small crowds. Whispers of the Creator's sacred angels started to get around. No one could verify because no one ever knew when and how we'd show up or for how long we stayed.We reached the city of Pompeii. Another Roman city. Dividing up, we searched for the sick, the hungry, and the dying. With those ready to go, we helped them. Those who were ill we healed. For the hungry and starving families, especially for the children, we fed. Giving them the seeds of life. As long as they spread the word of my parents would their plants sustain them. If they helped their fellow man and abided by the laws set in place by my Parents, thei

The corner of his mouth twitched up into a smirk, he opened his mouth slightly and ran his tongue over his unusually long tooth ensuring that saw it, before turning his attention back onto Miss.

    A scream escaped my mothers mouth as she witnessed the events as they unfolded, followed by the thud of Godric's body hitting the floor. “ I’m sorry you had to bare witness to that, I protect what is mine.” Sam stated looking at both my mother and my father. My father jumped out of his chair and turned towards me, grabbing me roughly by my arm, “This is due to you, speaking out of turn…” Sam grabbed my father’s hand forcing him to remove his hand from my arm. “Like I said I have no issue with right now, but do not take you being her father mean I will not do the same to you as I just did to the piece of shit laying on your floor if you lay another finger on her.” The look on my father’s face was pure outrage. “The contract is signed and she is mine rightfully and as stated in the binding contract I will stay here until we are married so your daughter would have the chance to know me. But I can clearly see that I now have a stronger conviction to stay and ensure her safety from the lik

    My father paid no attention to the rake of man standing next to him. A servant announces that dinner was ready. “We should be seated, please follow me please.” My mother says, Marquess Browne offers his arm to me and I reluctantly take it as we begin to follow my parents to the dining hall. “You look lovely tonight my dear,” he says to me. I feign shyness, “thank you my lord, your compliment is most gracious.” “My lord” the butler addressed my father, “Duke Angelo has arrived and has requested to speak with you on an urgent matter.” My mother looks at my father quizzingly, he drops my mothers arm leaving us with the marquee. “Shall we?” my mother says, gesturing her hand towards the dining hall.

    “I see you have been rolling around in the grass again Rayne.” My mother sucked in her teeth and gave a scathing look to my nurse. “Ma’am I apologize, miss wanted to pick some of the more difficult herbs and tripped on her skirts…” My nurse tried to explain before my mother cut her off, “I don’t care what excuses you have for being late and she is supposed to be ready already. You know what today means if the marquess is fancied enough a marriage offer will be extended, which means a higher station for us.Put on her best dress and make haste.” My mother ordered both me and my nurse. “Not to worry, miss, many men fancy you. From what I hear from the servants that accompany your mother on her errands, your father has turned down many requests for your hand in marriage now that you're of age.” My nurse said to try to lift my spirits. I smile tightly back at her and nod my head. “The marquess miss you should be lucky to have him calling on you. He is not bad looking and very athletic too

    With her hands on her lips she gives me a look that says she doesn;t believe me. “Off with ya, your father and mother are expecting visitors this eve for dinner. You miss need to get ready for it.” I stand up and dust the dirt from my skirts and comb my fingers through my hair picking out the grass that was caught in it. “Do you know who is coming?” She softens her face and looks at me sympathetically, “Aye miss I do, when we arrive at the manor you are to get changed in one of your finer dresses. Your father has arranged a suitor for ye the Marquess.” She says with pride. “Now let's be off.” She reaches for my hand and drags in the direction of the manor.

    I sit once again in silence, I begin to hear a hum in the distance. I look up and stare straight ahead as a faint light no bigger than pin prick, which quickly began to multiply in every direction. Until the once dark prison was full of bright light that quickly surrounded me. It was all the power I had released being reabsorbed into my body. My flesh glowing and warmth invaded my soul. I could now feel the missing pieces of soul reuniting feeling whole again. Before I could relish in feeling one again, I felt an odd sensation in my center like a hot poker burning me from the inside out. I scream and claw at my middle; the pain only intensifies. The burning spreads to every limb until I’m consumed in heavenly fire. “Rayne,” I hear my nurse calling for me. “Where have you run off to?” I quickly gathered my basket full of herbs I was collecting. “Sam,” I whispered frantically. Sam’s head pops up amongst the tall grass, grinning at me. I run to him “ I must be off, she can't catch us to

    “Michael…Michael where are you? Where am I? What is this place?” I slowly get up off the hard ground. I waver as I gather my footing. The ground beneath my feet is smooth and cold. I turn in a full circle and see nothing but darkness. “Mother, Father?” I scream into the endless void. My pleas go unanswered, I’m here alone. Where are my guardians? Have my parents really created a prison to hold me? This isn’t right. I'm supposed to be reborn. Why am I here? What have I done to warrant this punishment from my parents? No I refuse their prisoner I gather my power and release it in an explosion looking for weak points to try and escape. “You will not hold me here!!!” I scream at the top of my lungs to my parents to anyone or thing that would listen. I send another blast of power stronger than the last, nothing happens. It's like this hell, limbo, prison absorbs every last drop of my power. My knees buckle, no this can’t be happening.

    I closed my eyes, focused on the power radiating from him. I forced him to appear before me kneeling, his down. “Look at me Luc.” When he didn't I forced him to. I deep scar ran down his eyebrow and into his lip. “Luci I should finish you off here and now.” “So why don't you?” “You know why. And it’s not because I love you.” He laughed in my face, “Michael is weak, he let his feelings for me cloud his judgement and your doing the same.” He spat at my feet “and you call me weak and pathetic?” I backhanded him and he hit the floor. “Touch my father again and he dies.” I quickly turned around and there was Cammy and a man held at knife point.
