I didn’t understand the relevance of Cash’s question so I just answered honestly.

“Yeah, he has his moments. Sometimes I forget he’s even an Angel.” I chuckled a bit in response.

“Hmm.” Cash nodded.

After that last bit of conversation, we drove in silence. His mood swings were getting a little to overbearing, and I wasn’t sure I could be cooped up with him when we got back to West City. I had to stay by his side and suffer in silence for a while longer. It made me wonder if he was this moody when he was being the boss at Cornell Plaza.

“Are you going back to work when we get to where ever it is we’re going?” I asked, knowing it was only about an hour until we would see the turn off for West City, so I wanted to know what to expect.

“I will work remotely for the time being. I believe it is safer for both of us.” His response was automatic, so I figured he had already thought it through.

“Where are we going anyway? We can’t head to your place, and I don’t have the extra room

    I could feel the stickiness of his chest as it pressed into mine and then away. His body was moving, and I could feel my hot breath every time he came back down, leaning over me. I was sure I felt long hair brush along my arms, on my shoulders. I had my eyes closed, but as he moved harder into me, I tried to open them. They wouldn’t open. I felt with my hands and found his arms beneath my fingers. I went to push him off but he pounded into me harder. I wasn’t sure how much longer my body could take of this. “Stop..” My throat was dry, catching, as I tried to say the words. “No.” he said as his chest came down to my lips. “Please..I can’t..” My whisper begged as I could feel his burning skin against my lips. “You can..and you will.” His words were unmoving. I tried to speak again but he started moving faster, making my legs bend even more. I wanted to open my eyes, I wanted to see who was exhausting my body of every drop of sweat it could hold. His body stiffened as he dug deepe

    “There must be more to it.” I commented, knowing Lou was too nosey to just vanish into thin air. “Let's not concern ourselves with that at the moment. First, we need to find the witch responsible for the possession.” Cash commented. His mood suddenly changed at the appearance of Michael. “And what about the wolf, responsible? Why do you seem less concerned about that, when it was one of your own that played a hand in it?” Michael questioned. I could see his point. Cash never let on to who he thought could be a part of this mess, even if I had a suspicion, I needed him to confirm it. “I am already working, on that issue, so you need not worry about that.” His words became even more unfriendly towards Michael. The tension suddenly got thick and I glanced at Pheral. He was munching on pizza like it was popcorn and a movie, his eyes were darting back and for between the wolf and the Angel. “Okay guys, let's not start this. Look, Cash can handle the wolf issue. I need you, Michael

    I sat back down for a moment. I had wondered when we got to this place if sanctified ground would have an effect on me. I’m tied to Heaven so it shouldn’t, but even when I go into churches, I feel sorta funny. “What's the matter?” Cash said to me concerned. “I think it’s this house, I think the energy is too much for me. I need some air.” I said, standing again feeling not so dizzy this time. “I’ll come with you.” I didn't want to deal with talking anymore so I shook my head at his offer. “I want to be alone. There’s security watching the place, I’ll be fine.” I responded heading for the front door. Once I was outside in the cool night air, I felt better. The sound of the river guided me over to it though light was scarce, I could still see a foot in front of me. Darkness didn’t bother me either, it felt comforting in a way, drowning out all the noise light makes. There was a large rock sitting at the overhang before the river so I sat down feeling the coolness of it on m

    “Where have you been?” He growled as he turned to face me. “I was outside, getting fresh air, like I said. You don’t need to send someone to watch me, I can take care of myself, Cash.” He didn’t understand the meaning of privacy, not one bit. “You weren’t feeling well earlier, so I told him to watch you just in case something happened.” He slightly snapped. “Thanks, but I’m fine now.” I responded as turned to head back up the stairs. “Fine or not, there is still a demon out there, Ayda, and if he becomes aware you are a walking beacon of energy to sustain him, you can be sure he will be after you, instead of me.” Cash almost blurted it out trying to warn me, or maybe he was trying to scare me, I wasn’t sure. “Remember Cash, I work for Heaven, and if he thinks my energy is tasty, then let him try. At least that way, someone will find him. Besides, we still don’t know yet if he can even possess me, or even if the kind of soul swapping, I do, is helpful to the little bugger.” I

    Opening the door slightly, I took the phone with my good hand from Cash. He was turned away, which I appreciated. “You have some explaining to do Lucy!” I spoke into the phone with my best accent, closing the door. I heard the nervous laugh coming from Reggie. “Before you crucify me, first let me say, it was his idea, and he held my by the throat, with a valuable pot of gold.” Her words were rushed out, but she knew I wasn’t exactly mad for the sudden appearance of a missing Devil. “So, how’d you.. do it?” I asked. “I really didn’t, he did. I merely helped, a small bit.” She was skirting the details. “Do I even want to know?” I said, imaging all sorts of blood sacrifices and the debauchery of hundreds. “Uh, not really, let's just say he is borrowing someone’s coat. Kinda like a reverse possession, but not.” She sounded cheerful, but she was hiding something. “You don’t deal in black magic, so there's more to it than your voice is letting on.” I said in a low tone, sens

    My body started to burn. I pleaded again for whomever it was, to stop. “I can’t..breath..who are..you?” I said in between breaths as he laid against my back, pressing the length of his body into me. “Emm..shhhh..soon..soon my little dove. Your lovely..wings..will be clipped..ahh..” He sat up behind me, keeping the rhythm of the flickering flames against the wall. I closed my eyes briefly, trying to focus, as he spread my legs further apart with his hands. Suddenly I realized something. His hands, what they felt like. They weren’t thick and callused, or strong, like Cash’s. They felt long, slender, like the hands of a piano player. Only two individuals came to mind when I felt those hands. “Michael..is it..why..what are you doing..to me..” I said, almost sure of it for just a moment, before thinking more and remembering Michael has shorter hair. The other one that came to mind was Lou, but his was the color of sunshine, or if straw could glow. “Emm..no..a guessing game..wont

    “I’m serious Michael. How did you know about the dreams, how did you..get in my head?” I asked, not really wanting to, but I wasn’t keen on anyone entering my dreams without my permission. “Ayda, you're tied to Heaven, you're wearing a bracelet that is constructed from one of the holiest items that was never meant to be made. I’m sure you can figure that one out.” His words rolled around in my head. I looked away and nodded. I knew it was no different than when I entered Oblivion by accident. When I am living by the force of a soul of heaven, of course they would know if something nasty wanted to touch it. It didn’t seem like that demon was concerned with touching the soul, but more with touching me. “Well, now that you know, it’s best you rest love. I need to head back and recharge sorta speak. Lou will probably be in touch soon. I’ll let you relay to him what I said, and also...Witch..” I turned to see Michael turn towards Reggie with his last word. “Later, you and the Devil

    “I don’t recall you ever asking me?” I said, feeling a bit peeved, that once again, Cash thinks he can just decide what I am going to do. He ignored me and walked over to the other side of the sofa and sat. “I didn’t ask because you going is as much as a benefit to you, as it is myself. If it’s the clothing choice that is making you hesitant, then I apologize. I went with what was trendy, and took into account where we were going.” He said casually as he looked out the window towards the river. I knew I’d be wearing more than what half the club was wearing, but it was still a bit out of my comfort zone. And, because he was right out it being beneficial to me, I dropped the bit of temper I had and decided to play along. “Fine. I’ll be ready in an hour or so.” I responded, not looking at him. I wouldn’t look at this like a date. This was a job. I needed to find out whatever Leif had to say and decide from there what we needed to do. I knew Cash felt the same way. Reggie follo

  • Wings of Momentum   Facing A Hiccup

    I turned to Steve, his attitude had pushed me a little too far, and I exploded, “Look, I’m so close to saying screw it and putting you back in the metal box before both our asses become kindling for Angel’s fire. You seem to think proving you innocent is my purpose in life, but you’re wrong, STEVE. I am only doing this because I can’t live with a guilty conscience or the possibility of one!” I was huffing, trying to gather my breath. Rarely did I snap like that, but my cool mindset had flown over the railing and tumbled down several flights of stairs. “I don’t know where the guy is, but this was our only hope, Steve, so please, just be quiet and let me breathe.” He stared at me momentarily and cocked his head before looking at the door marked 2C. I looked, too, and the door was opened with an older man staring at us. “Mr. Arubergy?” He nodded and stuck his head out, looking around. “Come in, come in, hurry now,” he said, waving at us to be quick. “Please remove your shoes.

    Steve's sudden question made me jump, and he grasped my hand harder, saying, “It’s worse than this. Unlike vampires who can sleep for eternity in solitude or fairies who can use their magic to fill nothingness with light and valuables, demons can only wait and listen, hoping to hear what’s happening outside the nothingness.” A slight shake in his voice made me feel horrible all of a sudden, but I couldn’t play into it no matter how bad I felt, “Well, do the crime, and you’ll eventually do time, Steve. I didn’t make those rules back then, but I still have to follow them today.” “Be lucky you didn’t end up with Groves. He had a basement full of tiny glass boxes that held his bounty captures. They could see out, and he would play reruns of commercials 24/7 on a black-and-white box t.v. for them to watch. Talk about torture. At least Reggie would talk to all of you,” Trixie piped in, obviously not feeling bad for Steve. “Sorry if I don’t seem grateful, but in all respect, I wasn’t supp

  • Wings of Momentum   Corner Of Bliss Black Hole

    After my threat of turning his human body into a skunk, Steve complied, and we headed in my care to Corner of Bliss café. The silence was tolerable other than his constant shifting in the passenger seat, looking around. Finding a place to park was tricky, Corner of Bliss was a hopping little café with free Wi-Fi, and it’d been around long enough to have a mass number of Others that were loyal and frequented the place. Of course, humans always found their way there but were welcomed just the same. “Good morning, dears. What can I... get you?” Beth's pause was expected, she was something Ayda and I could never figure out, so I wasn’t sure if she would sense something about Steve. “Just two coffees, please. Is Trixie still here?” Still staring at Steve, she smiled and nodded toward the café window. Trixie was leaning across the booth’s table and chatting up the new waiter. I can't say I blame him. The guy was gorgeous. “Thanks,” I said while she was staring at Steve. “I don’t thin

    I sat up feeling stiff, sore, and sleep deprived as the sound of my phone dinging by my bed woke me, followed by clanking sounds from the kitchen. I checked it and saw that it was Pheral who had messaged me. “Good morning, beautiful. I miss you. Everything is the same here, one meeting after another. I may never see the day when I am free of the pack. I’m sorry.” His message hit home, and I held back my tears. I missed him, too, and my heart ached for his hugs and sweet words when we were alone. Never leave the pack? I may end up threatening Cash to let Pheral go as he promised. Taking a deep breath through my nose, I caught the scent of smoke, and when I heard Steve yell, “Bloody Hell,” followed by the sounds of water, I shot out of bed and went straight into the kitchen. “What are you...” I was asking, but before I could finish, he stammered, “Can’t you see I’m making breakfast?” Seeing burnt eggs in the pan and black toast on a plate made me laugh uncontrollably. “Why a

    “He’s in Heaven,” saying it in such an evident tone, Steve shrugged and then looked at Michael. We stared at him with our jaws open before I asked, “In Heaven, how do you know?” “Last I heard, he was dying, and an Angel promised him a one-way pass straight upstairs. But, of course, that was back before I got stuck with that killer driving us around and murdering people. So I assume that’s where he must be,” Steve answered, but it didn’t help us because it wasn’t like Heaven was next door, and we could just knock asking to borrow a dead necromancer. “If it was that simple, Michael could have someone up there locate one of the souls of the women that were murdered and ask her personally. But, unfortunately, there’s a lot more to it, paperwork and approvals. Heaven isn’t just chaos and paradise. They are structured, Steve, so a dead necromancer would be hard to locate without going through the proper channels. And keep in mind, Heaven gets word a demon, especially one that was sentenc

  • Wings of Momentum   A Suggestion

    After busying myself around my house and battling dust bunnies, Trixie arrived. “Girl, you don’t even know the chaos that went on while you were kidnapped! That Angel was the only one to keep me informed until Zin finally came to the club two days ago, looking like someone had kicked his puppy. He said Ayda had been transported to Hell, but he wouldn’t elaborate. So what’s going on? How are you, and why didn’t you let me know you were safe?” I hugged him after he shut the door and sat on the couch. “I’m fine, as you can see. But sit next to me, and I will give you the full rundown,” I responded, patting the seat next to me. Trixie was a woman’s hottest wet dream, but he preferred the silent solid type equipped with three legs instead of one. He was carrying a bag and pulled out a beer before lying on the couch next to me. “Alright, spill it, don’t leave out a single detail!” From point A to point Z, I told him about the kidnapping, the wolves and shifters that saved me as

    It took about a half hour before Michael popped back in. “Alright, you ready?” I just looked at him and asked, “Where’s the body, Michael?” “I couldn’t bring it with me. It’s at the hospital.” I jumped from the barstool, “At the hospital!? Why didn’t you just snag one from the morgue?” He shook his head, “I can’t do that. If the body is dead, the demon won’t last in it. It’s like a zombie who can’t eat brains.” “Good point, I didn’t think of that. Fine, let’s go to the hospital,” I replied while tucking Steve’s box under my arm. Michael looked at the box again nervously, “I can’t believe I am doing this. If Ayda found out, she’d skin both of us.” “Hush. That’s why she won’t find out. We don’t even know if what Steve said is true.” The Angel shook his head and placed his hand on my shoulder. I closed my eyes, knowing I was about to feel nauseous. I felt the pull of his power, and in the next instance, I could smell antiseptic while the sounds of a hospital filled my ears. I g

    “He wasn’t a lower demon, you keep saying ‘Two lower class demons’ every time we talk, and I keep telling you he wasn’t. You’re a poor listener.” Suddenly the fairy piped in, “I’ve heard him say it. He’s right, sweetie. You really don’t listen.” “It’s true, it’s true, he has said it! But all she does is say, ‘If the shoe fits, wear it!’...I don’t even have shoes,” the vampire said, giving his two cents with a whine. All of a sudden, all three of them started talking, and my head was about to explode, “ENOUGH! Look, Steve, all you ever said was that he was stronger than you. Never once did you say he WASN’T a lower class. Fuck, if you knew he wasn’t, then you should have said he wasn’t! How the Hell am I supposed to know what you meant?” I stood there trying to decide. This was so out of the blue I suddenly wished Ayda was here. “You better not be fucking with me, or I’ll turn you into a pair of socks for a monkey!” I returned to the shelf where I kept my relaxing bedtime smoke a

  • Wings of Momentum   Reggie's Story

    It was dark, and damned streetlights were flickering in and out as I came up the side road by my house. It usually would annoy me, but I stayed feeling content anyway. Ayda was learning to open up. She needed to. Plus, I was safe from that crazy bitch that kidnapped me. Through it all, I’d found the sexy man, or wolf, of my dreams. I was never into dating, let alone sleeping with Others. I was quite against it. However, when I met Pheral for the first time, it was like love at first site. Or was that lust? Either way, his tall, dark, and quiet demeanor swept me out of my striped socks. Did I mention he was sexy? With those almond shaped exotic eyes, he could melt the polar caps. When I pulled up along the stone walls shielding the houses, my heart held a beat, hoping he was there, but I knew he wouldn’t be. Pheral’s boss, and pack leader, Cash, took on their pack as the new Alpha in charge. Pheral was helping with the transition. He isn’t an Alpha, or a Beta, just another wolf. “A
