Eric and Damien to took steps through the forest. The darkness of the night provided a good cover for them. not like they had to worry about anyone seeing them anyways
Damien filed for the hundredth time that day. He was extremely tired since he didn't have as much stamina as a prince beside him, it made it even more difficult to continue the journey without rest" can't we stop for just a few seconds? I'm dying here"" you were never alive to begin with"" still, I'm not as strong as you are. I can't go on for much longer if I don't stress"Eric stopped and turned to look at him, his eyes narrowed in disgust" weakness is not something tolerable. It seems you don't realise the importance of this mission to the underworld"Damien rolled his eyes" Eric I'm as much as a devil as you are and I desire nothing more than to fulfill this mission gracefully but you have to understand we already executed 9 contracts already and only have one more before we can go back home so just chill already"The other didn't answer him but didn't insist on walking any furtherDamien sighed relieved. If he really had to walk another mile any second he knew he would surely die for sure" you rest for a few seconds, I'll surveyed is surrounding"" wait, you can't go too far, your father asked me to protect you"Eric looked down at himDamien smiled. " alright, I know it's more of you protecting me but you can at least pretend I try. Go ahead"" I never asked for your permission"" sure you didn't "Eric ignore him hopping on a tree and flying away. The wind blew against his hair as he flew to the highest peak before looking down at the vast Forest. The endless green stretched far a long distance, it seems they would have to fly if they really wanted to reach your destination quickerA bird flew closer to him, a mocking Jay if he could remember the species clearly. A curious little thing it wasStretching a poem The Little Bird landed modestly on it" puny creature"Within his will, a bust of blue flames engulfed his palms turning the bird into a mould of ashes within secondsHis eyes once more focused on the green forest, the animals roaming around it, all this disgusted him' everything would look much better burning'It will be until everything was nothing more than Ashes and even those will Fly With the WindJust wait until he becomes king. He would make the whole world burn and nothing will remain of it* * *The next day was a Monday. Which meant it was the beginning of another week againWaking up early in order to dress for school she proceeded downstairs to have breakfast. Her father had already gone out for work and her mother was also preparing to head to her own place of work when she came downstairs" morning Mum"" morning honey, are you ready for school?"" yeah, just getting breakfast"" all right but remember to shut down all the light before you leave and also locked the door properly"" I get it. Have a good day at work"Her mother give her a small hug before leaving the houseAngy focus on the breakfast on the kitchen table. She settled down to eatA couple of minutes later and she was done. She put her used plate in the sink before making to exit the house. She did did as her mother instructed and turn off all the electricity in the house before finally heading out locking the door behind full stop was only a 30-minute drive to her school, she needed to call a taxi fast if she didn't want to be late for lectures* * *Arriving at school just the moment the bell rang, she hastened her way to class running into a familiar face on the way" hey Angy "" hi Sam"Sam was her childhood friend and neighbor, they basically grew up together and knew each other since they were eight. Their parents were also close friends" had a busy morning?"" not realy, rather boring actually "Sam hummed running a hand through his strawberry blond hairShe forgot to mention some happened to be the most good-looking guy in school? He even had his own fan club made mostly out of girls who normally stalked him home. Angy didn't even know why some chose to hang out with her sometimes.His father also owns a local church in their neighborhood, it was the one had grand mother used to attend before she became sick" I heard your grandmother wasn't feeling well, I hope she gets better soon"" thanks. I hope so too"'Maybe then she wouldn't talk so crazy'On entering the class she took her usual seat by a window and sam took the seat next to her, the teacher hadn't started the class yetThat morning and you had decided to leave her hair down but now as it constantly got in her eyes she was regretting that choice. Thankfully she had on a hair pin. She packed her hair back and pinned it. She was finally able to see, she was about to bring her hand down but her wrist was held" when did you get a tattoo?"Has leaves had lifted exposing the name marked on her wristShe sighed' great, now she had to think of a lie to tell. She couldn't possibly tell Sam that the tattoo had appeared there overnight, even though it really had but it still sounded crazy" last month"" your folks didn't freak?"" they don't know"Sam traced a finger over the four letters" who's Eric?" He asked with a slight frown" my grandpa" another lieHis expression relaxed at that. " I didn't take you for the rebellious type"" am not"" aren't you?""Am not"Sam smiled and didn't ask anything elseAt that moment the teacher began the lecture, it was Biology one of her least favourite subject full stop with a sigh she rested her head against the table. Hopefully the day will go by faster and she can finally go homeThe entire sky darkenedIt was pretty obvious that it was about to rain heavily. Various students we're all scrambling to get home before the rain descended full stop at this point it was almost impossible to stop a taxiShe couldn't help sighing helplesslyIf she here waiting for a taxi that will probably never come he would end up being a victim to the Rain.' maybe she should walk home'Making up her mind, she put the sleeves of her sweater to cover her freezing in hands full stop was about an hour's walk to the house if she hurried hopefully she will make it on time before it started rainingWorking steadily down the road and you decided to take a shortcut. It was a one her mother had warned her never to take, but in cases like this she guessed it was acceptable. It was more of an alley Daniel Road and was completely empty and Incredibly dark due to the weather condition. She had to turn on the torch light on her phone to be able to see clearly where she was goingAfter working
Angy felt her legs give out under her and she collapse on the puddle of flowing water below her. She had never shivered so much in her life and it certainly wasn't due to the cold weather either" p..please..d..don't kill me"The words flowed out of her lips broken. She didn't even have the strength to stand on her feet not to talk of running. It was like she was in some kind of spell" I hate when humans complicate my task. Irrelevant things like you don't even deserve to die by my hand"The person above her scorned, the dagger held firmly in his grip, The seemingly unquenchable flame still Burning wildly" p..please"She was crying now and yet no weeping sound left her lips, just the flowing of tears that blended into the Rain that was falling down on her" I don't know how it is you are able to see us but even that isn't important since you are going to die as it is"The rain seems to be falling harder now probably crying for her the tears she couldn't shedAnother flash of lightn
" you let her live?"Damien couldn't help the surprise that laced his tone. Never in his thousand years of living has he ever seen the prince of hell who was brought up and raised to be cruel and merciless show any sign of remorse and especially for a human who he hated the most" do I need to explain myself to you now?" Eric glared at himDamien raised his hands in surrender " of course you don't, but am a bit confused at the moment. Not long ago you said you couldn't let her live and noe you go and do the direct opposite and even promise to find her later on. Weren't you the one who always say you disdain the human world? "" I will do as I please, it's none of your business at it is"Damien couldn't help but sigh. When it came to the arrogant prince, there really was no other way around it" I suppose we can head home now" Eric said" And the girl?" Damien asked with a confused frown" what about her?"" your really going to let her live?"The prince stared at him blankly. Damien kn
" a human, out of all the the creatures in the universe, faith grants you the one you hate the most this is just too much" laughed the king" this is not funny father"" oh but it is. My poor son"Eric didn't respond. He let the king have his fair share of amusement. It was a rare case he saw the side of his father. The demon king was known to be the most ruthless, cruel and heartless being ever to exist. He could wipe out a whole town, country or even the whole of the demon realm if he so wished. You could guess where the prince got his coldness from" what are you going to do now prince? I'm curious to know"The only reason Eric had thought of telling his father his unwanted mate was because he didn't know what to do. So why was the king reverting the question back to him?" I don't know" he replied honestlyThe king sighed. " that wouldn't do at all. A soulmate is a bond that simply can't be ignored. It's a curse the heavens have bestowed on the the royal linage of Lucifer. anythi
" huh? Is that a bad thing?"Damien received a vicious look from the prince. He chuckled" alright I'm sorry, I just didn't realise you were the sentimental type"" Am not!"" aren't you? Then why do you care so much what happened to this human girl? "" I don't."Eric.."" I'm not with neither do I want a weakness. I know the heavens grants every male in the Lucifer linage a soulmate as a form of a weak point. So far everyone has found a way of handling it, I just don't want to do what my father expect from me. I have never cared about humans before so I don't understand why I am hesitating to just kill that puny creature already"" geez, I've never heard you talk this much before. But if you really don't want to use this girl as your father says, why not just marry her and bring her here?"" Lucifer will never agree. He See's the soulmate bond as a weak point. Plus, I did try to kill her so do you really think she will just agree to marry me? "Damien pondered on his words. Yeah, yo
Eric stared blankly at the unconscious girl on the floor" Now what? "He had never seen someone quite as melodramatic as this pathetic human. Who faints on seeing a DemonOkey, so maybe her reaction was to be expected but the demon prince would rather blame everyone else than himself. It was just the kind of pompous person he wasTo think he has come all the way to the human world only to see an unconscious body. Damn that Damien and his stupid ethics. Maybe he should have just listened to his father's words instead. Use the girl and enjoy himself" Enjoy myself huh? "That he can do. And he didn't even need the stupid thing to be conscious at allLowering himself until he was hovering above the sleeping girl. He scanned her face properly memorizing every single detail there was to her. Her perfectly arched eyebrows, high Bridge nose, her flushed cheeks, long lashes, plump lips and even down to the smoothness of her skin. His eyes lowered to her chest' Big, but could be bigger'But
The moment Eric's figure appeared through the portal, Damien was by his side" how was it? Did she fall for You Yet?"" stop mumbling you are annoying pest!"" But Eric, it went well right?"" I don't know "" what do you mean you don't know? "" she fainted the moment she saw me "Then me and didn't honestly know what to say " did you scare her? "" I'm not sure "" how the hell aren't you sure? "" don't talk to me in such a manner " Eric glared at Damian. The Prince's has grown in a threatening redDamien shivered. He still can't forget just to Eric was or he might really end up dead if he keeps to himself" forgive me"Eric sneered " better don't let it happen again or you're dead"Damien smiled " out of all the romance novels we read yesterday, I thought at least you would grow a heart even if it's the size of a pebble"" I tried"" did you really? "" I did. But the girl is really too weak, she faint out of nowhere and her mouth is way too small" " why does the size of her mout
Reaching the girls restroom, Angy found it empty ' thankfully'She walked towards the sink and turned on the tap rinsing her face with the flowing water. She stared up at her reflection in the mirror" what's happening to me?"All the things she was seeing, all the things happening, all this wasn't good for her mental sanity. She was really thinking of going to see a therapist nowAngy leaned against the mirror closing her eyes. High Energy seem to have been drained from her, if only everything will always stay like this, peaceful and normalSomething warm grazed her behind, almost like the wind but more physical. Angy ignored it. With all the things that have been happening to her recently she wouldn't be surprised if it was just her conscience playing a silly trick on her. But then the sensation came again stronger than before. Angy almost jolted out of her positionSpinning around on her toes she nearly crashed into a familiar bodyA terrified scream left her mouth but as soon as
Uriel couldn't say he was very pleased when the task was given to him. His face had scrunched up in distaste when the fact that he would have to go down to the human world sank inHe knew his entire existence revolved around protecting the humans, and he could do that just fine, it never bothered him until he learnt he would actually have to be so close to one" But she's not full human though" Raphael had said to him, maybe to assure him, but it changed nothingWhy was the fate of one human so important anyways? Who cares if the little thing was mated to Lucifer's spawn. But nobody seemed to be willing to tell him anything apart from the fact he had to keep the girl away from the hands of the underworldUriel took on the form of a human, a priest who worked in a church just down the street from the woman's house. It was only after he had descended on earth that he learned he couldn't directly approach the girl, nobody had told him this!There was just something about her, a twirl of
The tall, majestic building seemed to pull her in, its warm embrace welcoming her back. Angela Johnson found herself standing just outside the huge doors of the town's local churchAngy hadn't attended church since she turned six and her parents had forbad her from tagging along with her grandmotherIt had never occurred to her to ever come back here until recently, to be more precise, until the events of yesterday. Just recalling what had happened sent shivers down her spineIt was one thing to be able to see something which no one else could, but it was a whole different level of crazy to be attracted to said entity. She must have lost her mind completelyTo actually latch herself so desperately onto..Eric for release was as annoying as it was arousing. And the way the man had skillfully gave her release, it made her mouth water just thinking back on it. Angy knew she desired more, she knew she would gladly fall to her knees in front of him in seconds just to feel those slender hand
Eric tried not to show any emotion on his face as he settled himself beside his father. It was one of those days when the king insisted he join him for dinner, father and son bonding time as Lucifer had so kindly put itThough, he had a feeling the other was just going to use the opportunity to make fun of him again, either way, he didn't have a choice but to be here. Despite his position as the next for the throne, he still had to pay respects to the current kingLucifer's similar red eyes mirrored into his as he stared at him with keen attention, it appeared mostly out of curiosity though" You went back for the woman" the man asked, not that it was in anyway meant to be a question " I can smell her on you "Eric frowned slightly at his Father's words but chose not to reply. The king gave him a tilted look, not seeming pleased at being ignored" Well, say something"" I don't get why your doing this?!" he glared up at the man with features disturbingly similar to his, it never quite
Angy settled back in her seat beside Sam, from the corner of her eyes she could see the red haired male leaning against the wall just beside themHis gaze were focused on nothing in particular and a displeased sneer was on his face. He didn't particularly seem thrilled to be hereAnd honestly speaking, despite him being the most gourgouse man she had ever laid eyes on, she didn't want him here either. Despite the fact that those silver horns she had seen earlier were missing from his wild red hair, she knew that this man wasn't someone she could dare offend, so she kept her mouth shut about it" what are you starring at?" Sam's voice startled her out of her daze, only then did she notice she had been starring at the strange boy too much, and based on the fact that only she could see him, it meant she had been starring at the empty wall all this time" I..it's nothing, I was just thinking" she spoke" You know, I was planning on going to see a movie with some friends, would you like t
