Rhea’s POV
I walked into the house to find Adrian already there before me, but I didn’t care about being late or getting caught by him after sneaking out. I had more important matters to discuss with him. Like a certain green-eyed feline who trailed after me into the house looking all too innocent. Who would believe that this sweet-looking fur ball had just incinerated six demons? I had seen it with my own eyes and still, I couldn’t believe it.
Adrian raised his brows at me as he saw me walk in. But on seeing that I didn’t sport the guilty expression I was supposed to have, he looked confused. He turned to look at Morris who looked all too satisfied with himself and a look of realisation dawned on him.
I pointed my finger and shook it at Adrian.
“You! You knew it!” I accused him.
“Knew what?” he asked in a bored tone, but I was sure that he knew very we
Rhea's POVI looked at Adrian as he sat there looking as cool as a cucumber. I raised my brows at him when he continued sitting silently."I found some shadow demons lurking in an alley and followed them. They didn't go back to their master though, they went to a human who was possessed by another demon. Must have been some higher up demon working under Samael. I didn't get the opportunity to question him though. There were lots of humans around him who couldn't see the shadow demons but would definitely notice it if I tried anything. So, I just noticed the location and came back. I would have to pay him a visit another time," he said finally."That is scary. Those demons could possess humans just like that?" I asked in alarm. "Only a few demons in the higher tier have the power to possess humans, and they generally could possess only humans with weak will," he replied, and I nodded. At least, they wouldn't run around possessing humans like changing dresses. "What exactly happens to
Rhea's POVThe next day, I sat opposite Adrian with mixed feelings. I couldn't decide what I felt about trying to use my powers. On one hand, I wanted to master them and become a powerful badass who could knock demons out like mosquitoes in a snap of my fingers. On t
Rhea's POVI looked at the vast fields in front of me. Though I knew that these were not the same gardens I had dreamed of before, I had the feeling that it was also part of the same world. It had to be, because everything was so green here. Greener than anything on the Earth could ever
Rhea's POVI looked into Adrian's blue eyes. It finally convinced me that I was at his garden on Earth and not at the green fields where I had felt so much despair. Despair that had felt like someone else's and mine at the same time. I couldn't describe the feeling properly even if I tr
Rhea's POVOnce we went back to the house, I felt tired all of a sudden, just as Adrian had predicted. The dream realm had drained me with the negative emotions and the experience of being a mere prisoner inside my own body.
Rhea’s POVThe man stared at me with a shocked look for a moment before a brilliant smile lit up his face.“I was worried you had turned too tame and mellow after your time on Earth but it seems you have still the ruthless Nemesis in you… And before I get off the topic and anger you again, I would introduce myself,” he said and then walked towards me.I watched him warily as he held his hand towards me for a shake. I frowned at him and looked at him as if he was holding a hissing poisonous snake towards me instead of his hand. Why would I shake his hand when he invaded my dreams and didn’t even introduce himself properly?When he realised that I was not going to shake his hand, he withdrew it with a sigh.“And still as hot headed as ever. You can take the memories out of Nemesis, but you can’t take Nemesis out of her,” he muttered.I glared at him in
Rhea's POVI woke up with a start in my room and found Morris staring at me with a knowing look. He seemed to recognise that something had happened while I was asleep. Since I looked fine, he dismissed me and jumped off the bed.
Rhea's POVAdrian looked at me with a proud gaze, and I did a double take. Did that mean he was not laughing at me? He actually looked impressed, as if I did something good instead of his usual 'What am I going to do with you?' gaze. What exactly was going on here?

Rhea’s POV I sat in my room trying to find what exactly I was feeling. My thoughts were a jumbled mess right now, and thoughts flashed in my mind with a speed that I couldn’t process. Was I angry that he hid his identity? A little… Was I sad that he had to go through everything alone
