All Chapters of The Beginning : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

I went from floating in a different realm to falling. Below me, I could see Michael and in front of him Lucifer. Michael had his sword at his throat. Michael was talking to Lucifer, I couldn’t make out the conversation. What I did notice was Lucifer. He was drawing a symbol in his blood. “Michael!” I screamed out in warning. He saw me relief in his eyes. Panic in mine. “Stop Lucifer!” Michael, at first looked confused. When he looked down and finally saw what I saw Lucifer performing blood magick. Lucifer slammed his hand down, pushing the symbol into the ground.Time stopped, the earth opened swallowing Michael waist-deep. Spikes ran through him. Missing his heart. I was stuck frozen in the air. I fought through the powerful magick. Michael was defenseless. I prayed to my parents, “please don't take him from me. I need him, please Father please Mother have mercy on your daughter. Give me the strength to get to him in time. I can’t lose him. Please save him.” I begged my parents. I k

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

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.

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

The ceremony is done the wound on my hand still open their essence mixed with mine. Placing my hand on the wall adding the angels. This was now their home. The fire beneath the walls changed. Other colors were added green, and blues shone through.After the angels settled in. It was time to introduce everyone. Celestria floated above Ramses and us behind us. Adrian, Nefertari her wolves flanked me. The seven stood directly across from us. Selene upturned her nose at my guardians. The wolves growled. Nefertari did nothing to stop them.Stepping forward, looking at each of them. With a thought, I forced Selene to all fours. "Selene if I were you I'd fix your face. I will not tolerate any rude behavior to one another. You, my dear, are looking at your new family. Nefertari silence your wolves. You are all equals here. Your bonded to each and every one of them forever. My parents chose each and every one of you and the ones we haven't found yet. If we have any chance of completing our mis
