♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Calisto ⋅• ♱"Lucifer woke up" Zaniel spoke as soon as he entered my office and both Azrael and I stared at him at the same time."Did Lucifer really wake up?""Are you for real?"We spoke almost in unison and the fallen with crimson hair nodded."A letter has just arrived from the palace of the black tower, Princess Lucifer has awakened."I sighed, feeling relieved for the first time since I stepped foot in this damn territory."Finally..." Azrael said sinking on the couch "I hate all these flowers and there are flowers everywhere!"I snitched.Yes, Lucifer liked flowers. He likes it so much that all his territory was full of them and in all the houses he could see even on their roofs and in the streets.Loren had loved it all, but looking at Azrael’s side - who was allergic to pollen -, it felt like real hell."We’re finally going home!" he said looking too happy, so happy that I almost felt guilty about destroying his happiness."We can’t go back... yet..." I

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Elaine ⋅• ♱She was in the library - I knew because I had heard the maids talking about the plans cancelled with Asmodeus."I shouldn’t intervene, if she cancelled something with the prince... then she must want to be alone," came to mind and yet contradicted me. My feet just moved carried away by my selfishness and when I realized I was in front of the library; and then between the shelves until I stopped at that place more to the center - where a fireplace was lit and Asra stood, leaning the table with a large book in hands.His eyes rose toward me."Elaine" The redhead’s face seemed to light up when she said my name.Don’t kid yourself, she’s just surprised."Hi... are you... busy?"She closed the book with a thud and smiled."Not exactly, but... I thought you didn’t leave your room.""I don’t go out much..." I muttered and mentally completed 'but heard you were here...'"Hummm" Asra threw the book on the table and held out one hand to me "come, I’ll show you

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Azrael ⋅• ♱Kill Asra.That was the idiotic order Miguel had given me this time.I threw myself on the library couch and I could feel each of my muscles hurt.It was impossible to do this without being discovered - especially when Callisto had suddenly become so attentive to the damn concubine."What are you thinking? " Zaniel’s voice caught me by surprise and lifted my tired eyes to the fallen.Unlike me, Zaniel was someone trustworthy, one of my many brothers who fell for hating our father after what he did to Quinn and Lucifer.Zaniel was one of many who deserved Callisto’s trust and perhaps... - my thought was interrupted by my back that throbbed where my wings had once existed.Who cares about maybe?"That I’ll probably be dead as soon as we get back to the castle and the black tower," I spoke sincerely and saw the crimson-haired man smile."When did you become so exaggerated, Azrael?"I snitched."It’s not exaggeration... is it true, have you ever seen all

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱"He will kill you"She screamed in my mind and then my eyes opened suddenly. I had fallen asleep in the room again and there she was, staring at me with those huge blue eyes."You... are you okay?" Elaine questioned me and I couldn’t help but smile, how could I? She looked at me as if she was worried and as if my answer defined the mood of her day; after so long (2 weeks to be exact), her voice finally seemed less locked."I’m just... I had a bad dream" I lied, but although somehow I wasn’t wrong I could still feel those red eyes staring at me, at my soul."Human liar" was like I could hear her and a part of me couldn’t help but feel curious about how Asra was still there."How... bad?" Elaine questioned and her hands trembled "I... was in this dream?"I sighed.She always looked like this when I had "bad dreams" and in those moments the young age her appearance had gained (going from about 11 to 13 in the last week), they went down the drain."Elaine, I’m fine" I

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Miguel ⋅• ♱"What did you say?" Rosnei and one of the idiots who called himself Seraphin stammered."I was... I was... with the saint, I was doing what you said and..." that fucking retard looked worse than a scratched record."By my holy cock! Speak right you scumbag!" Growled while kicking his stomach "did you lose your tongue while running from that bitch?"I never thought that damn phoenix would be a problem, not after all she agreed to do for the bastard who called himself the king of demons. She had given up her memories, her powers and even her heart to Lucifer - the other idiot who gave up everything for the bastard who disgraced our sister."Talk!"Another kick, but from what it seemed to me was too light, too light for a treat as he speak."A... The duchess!" he grunted looking about to cry.Weak.How the hell could those assholes be so weak?"I didn’t know my father created things as disgusting as you" I snorted laughing at that expression of pain."R

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Elaine ⋅• ♱"He won’t leave us alone" I said as my reflection smiled, he kept smiling at me as tears fell down my cheek. " Why? Why can’t he leave us alone?"I wondered, but my reflection did not respond, just cried and I could not feel the tears on my cheeks."I don’t want it anymore, I can’t take it anymore...""But he won’t leave us alone" my reflection then repeated and I felt my chest hurt.Yes.He would never leave me alone."I’m tired..." I muttered to myself and felt a cold hand.That touch... it wasn’t cold before, was it?I raised my eyes and the hand that caressed my face was so pale that it bordered the bluish, but the nails... those red nails, carmine.Asra!My eyes widened when I looked at her, her face was too pale, too pale to be just her. Her lips were blue and in her eyes...In his eyes there was no more life."N-no! NO!" I screamed, but my voice did not seem to want to leave, it was as if again I was just a spectator.NO! NO! I kept screaming,

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱Flowers. There were flowers everywhere, yellow flowers that looked too fresh and then - my eyes opened."Asmodeus?" I called, but since the afternoon of three days ago, the prince had simply disappeared after telling me he had personal things to deal with.Was he back? Well... it was common for him to come back in the middle of the night, but when I looked around my room - there was nothing."Asmodeus?" I called again "it’s no fun playing at this hour" I muttered "I’m sleepy."No answer, not even a breath and then I realized - there was really something, but not in my room but in front of my door.I took a deep breath.I didn’t want to get up, my bed was warm and my body was finally relaxed after so many with a bad night’s rest."If it’s you Asmodeus, I swear I’ll cut you to pieces" I murmured more to myself than to him and to my surprise, it was Elaine.The messy hair, the wrinkled and messy clothes. She was wearing only a white sweater that went below the knee -

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Calisto ⋅• ♱"Daddy! Daddy! Do you think Asra will like these flowers?" Loren asked me for the thousandth time and all I could do was smile as he leaned on my shoulder and let the doctor put that gigantic needle in his little arm.It should hurt.It must have hurt a lot and in those moments I would give everything to be me in your place, but like all other things present in my life - I could not change it just by wanting."Yes, I think she will," I said while holding his pale little hand. He had three flowers there, a wild lily, a dandelion and a camellia.Smile.If he knew what those flowers meant, maybe he wouldn’t have picked them so perfectly."Should I get others? I think she’d like that little pink flower..." he said as his fingers moved almost nervously."Loren, she’s gonna love the ones you already picked, don’t you trust Daddy?"He stared at me, his eyes fixed on mine."But... Dad said he wasn’t very good at picking gifts..." he said so sincerely that I

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Azrael ⋅• ♱I watched her without realizing it, watched until the sun was setting and the barrier surrounding Samael’s plan was thinner, until the rune fragment she sent me was strong enough to enter."Don’t be an idiot," I remembered as my wings throbbed, "there’s no room for kindness, not after all you’ve done, don’t be such a hypocrite".I swallowed hard and a smile easily appeared on my lips when I crossed. It was like a fog touching my skin, a comfortable cold, a feeling I had missed even without realizing it.What the hell was I thinking? What was going on with me?I closed my eyes tightly, but my wings just beat, just took me there, to that breathless breath and that smile that could be felt in her voice when she called me."Azrael!" His arms wrapped around my neck and... had they always been so warm?"I thought you couldn’t come..." whispered her face down to my neck, I could feel her lips arched into a smile "okay? Did you get hurt getting past the barri

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Azrael ⋅• ♱The child began to be able to move gradually, in a way that was still a little time consuming and different from his usual, from the child who ran around and insisted so much to have his little body in that garden.His speech had returned too, his voice was less guttural, more understandable and a smile that was not painful could be seen, one that was not put on that face just because of the melancholy of Callisto."Look! You can move your arms better now" the quartz eyes were flickering as you said that as something equivalent to Loren’s first steps, as if that was some kind of novelty that should be celebrated with various gifts and a party "how is your breathing? Something still burns?" tried to caress that small face as if it was something that would break by any slip on his part.Loren was now like a valuable piece of porcelain, one that could not risk being damaged after being restored."I’m fine, Dad..." the child’s voice was still low when to

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Elaine ⋅• ♱"I like stars," he said while playing with a pearl between my fingers "I like how they look, how they’re bright and beautiful. I like purple, I like how the sun in this world is red, even though here where Samael lives he looks different."Keir smiled, his hands still playing by my hair."What else?" asked me with her face resting on my thighs."I like salty foods, slightly spicy, bittersweet and especially the dessert that the boss of the mansion always makes." The one that looks like jelly with syrup."Pudding? ' She asked me smiling from the corner and I nodded."That’s right, pudding.""Um, um, uh...""I also like pretty dresses, braided hair, flat shoes, delicate swords..." I continued to list "I like hardcover books and slow songs.""And old scrolls? You live surrounded by them" Keir joked, his lips arched in a mischievous smile that made my heart beat."Silly" I hit with my fingertips on his nose."I know, I know" gave up "continue... what els

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Quinn ⋅• ♱His arms wrapped around my body and then everything seemed to be fine.I no longer felt the blood, nor the weight of the souls that I plucked, that I hurt."Everything will be fine" he repeated as a melodic song and if it was Calisto who told me those things... I naturally believed."How can you not like it here?" I asked as I stared at that landscape, the sky, the grass that resembled a red foliage. The stars that always shone in the sky almost always cloudy.Calisto snorted."I don’t know..." he said sincerely "maybe... I just can’t see the beauty of hell when I didn’t have you by my side."A twinge struck my chest, a twinge of happiness and hope."Fool" I mocked wrapping my arms around his neck.I loved that being.He loved his color-changing eyes, loved his foolish way of thinking that the world was more beautiful outside of hell. He loved the way the rebellious waves of black hair he had struggled to unravel around his delicate face.I loved the

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Calisto ⋅• ♱I could not sleep.My eyes weighed and weighed, but I could not sleep - because there, in my arms -, there was a fragile being who did not seem able to open his eyes again.Whenever everything was cloudy and sleep pulled me down, I saw myself awakening in fright and looking at him.Checking.Checking to see if he was still alive, if he was still breathing.It was every day, every second - more complicated to watch, to watch."You should rest," Azrael told me one night, his eyes sharply in pain as he stared at the child, my child."How?" I heard myself ask, Loren’s sleeping face was so pale I had to put my fingers close to her nostrils to make sure he was still alive."Samael is good" he said hoping to console me, but it didn’t work.How would it work?"Then why haven’t we heard from you?" I practically growled, my hands closed in fists, tears burning in my eyes "I sent letters and more letters... I... I did everything I could... I DEMANDED answers a

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Asmodeus ⋅• ♱"Asmodeus is a great...""This time it’s going to work," I said ignoring the voice of that damn demon in my earring as I focused on that crystal, that crystal I was able to form from Quinn’s blood."You’ve been repeating this since...""Shut up" growled tearing the earring from my ear and throwing it at the wall.I wasn’t in the mood to be careful about whether or not I could hurt him or even break his prison.I was just tired.I wanted to see her."It needs to work" I muttered as I imbued more and more magic in that little crystal "work, work..." I kept repeating, as if somehow that was a stupid mantra - strong enough to make everything work; but nothing could be easy when it was for me, right?Nothing worked as it should.I bit my mouth hard, the fangs thrust into my lip until a sliver of blood came down my chin.I couldn’t see her, I couldn’t be with her or protect her. I couldn’t go to her even though time was passing and yet, the least I was a

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Loren ⋅• ♱My eyes weighed, my belly looked strange and at times it was like floating in my own body.I could feel my father’s affection as he tried to talk and distract me, but now even opening his mouth was a complicated task."It’s going to be okay" he repeated and at that point I already knew he was saying it more to himself than to me."I know" I wanted to answer while smiling, but my mouth did not move, in fact, opening my eyes was already a gigantic effort, so I was content to grunt and hold her hand.It wasn’t a squeeze, I couldn’t even call it anything but touch. A soft, almost nonexistent touch that my father should be questioning if it was real.He was sad, wasn’t he? Abbadon should also be, but after I started sleeping more than 17 hours a day, she was no longer there, just Dad.A version of Dad who stared at me with a red face from crying."Do you want to hear a story?" He asked me with a broken voice and I forced myself to smile, forced my face to

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Samael ⋅• ♱I blinked."What was it?" she asked me as she sat in the armchair and the red-eyed duchess stared at me with an raised eyebrow."I did not expect... the two" I spoke sincerely, after all the agreement I had made with Elaine was already a clear way to make the duchess calmer with all that; even so, the sharp gaze of Asra shot me as if my mere mention of her being there was an offense. Maybe it was the result of years on the battlefield, but I knew when I wasn’t able to win a war, so I sighed winning "but since you’re here..." I muttered indicating with one hand to the armchairs - sit down."Where will you start?" Asra questioned, the red hair falling with perfectly braided waves on her back, the sharp eyes staring at me and looking for any sign of flickering in my attitudes or decisions."I’ve been thinking about tears..." I said remembering Quinn, the way he had acted.Since that day, the bastard did not even give me a mere sign of life and Callisto’

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Elaine ⋅• ♱Samael did as he said he would, but from the day we arrived at the camellia mansion - a name given by Keir, since the garden was full of camellias -, I did not even see the slightest sign of the priest’s existence, but now, when morning came by the door of our house.The huge smile on his face made me question my own sanity as he said - what was sweet? If you keep looking at me like that, I’m gonna think you don’t like my presence.I opened my mouth to confirm that assumption, but I chose not to."Just... I thought it was too early for you to be here," I lied and apparently that wasn’t one of my best lies, as he just smiled as he drank his tea."Early? We have a lot to study, especially if we want the child to experience one of my theses before dying."I swallowed it hard."Is he... very ill?"Samael laughed quietly."Does it really matter to you?"'No' I realized as I pressed the skirt of my dress between my fingers.My concern for Loren... was mini
