"Not really," I replied dryly. "I just have a feeling for something like that."
We were both silent for a while, then I sat down next to him on the carpet.
“Why are you rummaging through my things? You could have just asked me. "
My rather loving tone made him pause as expected.
"Aren't you mad?" He muttered.
I shrugged my shoulders.
"Just a little."
He was silent again, which is why I dared poke him.
“Zayn, if there is something, tell me. I'll answer your questions and listen carefully when you want to talk about something. So don't hesitate. "
His surprised look made me smile.
"We don't know each other," he breathed confused.
My smile got bigger.
“We don't even have to know each other, Zayn. You wouldn't want that at all. "
I got up with a soft sigh.
"It seems to me that you know me very well," he whispered softly.
He eyed me suspiciously, but I pretended not to notice. I was about to strut out of the room when I heard his voice again.
"I never met my parents."
I stopped abruptly. I did not turn around.
"Who raised you?" I asked neutrally.
Maybe I got more out of him if I showed him that this wasn't about feelings? So I stayed cold accordingly.
"Teacher. Employees. He replied, if not colder than me.
"You were ... are you rich?" I stated and looked over my shoulder.
"You can't say it like that.", It came back from him.
I finally turned around with a fake smile.
"Apart from your tendency to kill, I'm convinced that you have become something even without your parents." I said softly. I let him stand, but outside the door I heard him say softly:
“No, Nyria, nothing came of me. Nothing but a fallen angel. "
...
The following night I dreamed of angels, fallen angels and black wings. I woke up panting. I had the image of Zayn's back in my head, on which two long and deep scars had been embossed. They pulled from the beginning to the end of his shoulder blades. I didn't know why he chose the comparison with a fallen angel. Neither did I know why I had such a dream.
"Are you okay?", Zayn asked softly against my ear. I just nodded, unable to say anything. I had been completely off track for days, but only now did I admit it to myself. It was only since this almost completely strange man was here that everything was different. There was something about him that I liked. Maybe it was the mysterious, maybe just his good looks. I began to think about how to proceed now. He had been here for days, but neither of us got a step further. We lived past each other and yet it seemed as if we were dependent on each other.
"What was the dream about?" Zayn spoke up again.
I swallowed. I wanted to ask him something, but couldn't really bring myself to do the same. At some point he nudged me, which is why I dared.
"Where did the two long scars on your back come from?"
I felt his body stiffen and knew immediately that I would not get an answer to this question.
"Just so much ... It was my own fault," he muttered.
A few seconds passed, then I sat alone in my bed. I watched him, fascinated, as he got dressed. I watched the muscles play under his skin in awe. As mean as he could be, when he didn't want to talk about himself he looked incredibly vulnerable. Did he know that?
"Why are you looking at me like that?" He suddenly shouted at me.
I winced. Did he feel my piercing gaze on his back?
"You are a mystery to me, Zayn Vaher." I mumbled and let myself fall back into the pillow. A look at the clock revealed that it was only six in the morning.
"What do you mean?" He asked suddenly.
I slowly raised my head.
"Well." I hesitated. “For a moment you try to scare me with this“ killer number ”, then you say something about yourself that makes you seem vulnerable and at night you hold me lovingly in your arms. Do you have any idea how confusing it all is? "
I saw the speechlessness, the confusion and the anger that I had even dared to speak these words in the first place. There was an icy silence for a few minutes. Then the handsome man broke the silence.
"Do you know how weird you are?" He sighed. “You are so incredibly sensitive and fragile and yet you pretend to be cold and aloof. You don't want anyone to get too close and hurt you and that's why you put on this mask, which I honestly find pretty ridiculous. "
After his speech, I could understand why he was staring at me like that. I was doing exactly the same thing now. After regaining my composure, I stared at him.
"You don't care how I am and what I make of myself, just as I don't care that you kill," I replied defiantly, whereupon he apparently couldn't suppress a laugh.
"You're unbelievable!"
Again we were silent. I had no idea what to say and apparently neither did he.
“I refused something, that's why the two scars on my back. In other words, if I had obeyed, they would not be there now. "
His sudden words made me sit up and take notice. Although I was racking my brain about what exactly might have happened, I just looked at him understandingly.
“You shouldn't let the will of others be forced upon you. I'm sure you made the right decision. ”I muttered and turned away again. I could feel his gaze on my back, but didn't turn back.

Meeting A Stranger (Complete✔) Epilogue
Laughing, she gouged out his eyes, cut off his ears and nose, drilled holes in his skull and then peeled off his skin. Everything alive. Both the ground and herself were marked with blood in the end."I hope I never have to kill anyone again," she said to her husband one evening in the shower."Because it was so horrible for you?" He replied. She had shaken her head and rested her head on his chest."No. Because it was so much fun. "Sighing, I looked over the land, which shone in a rich green. Spring had come. The fifth that I have already seen here. And even though I've been here for so long, I still couldn't get enough of the beauty of heaven. Yes, I lived here now. This was my new home. I still couldn't believe what had happened after the fight with Nereus. Zayn had actually been out to start another fight, the archangels had realized that too. You were understanding. And now? Today there were no more archangels. No, they had
Meeting A Stranger (Complete✔) Not over yet
With rattling breath, I tried to calm myself down. We'd already done almost all of them and that in less than a quarter of an hour. Most of them were dead and you could see that from me and the others. We were covered in blood and wounds, but everyone had already healed. So while we were standing here suddenly there was a high and high-pitched scream. It was only then that I realized that Nyria was not near me. And although this was the first time I heard this kind of scream, I knew immediately who it was from. Only a few minutes passed before she stood in the middle of the hall. Her top was torn, there was a long and incredibly deep cut in her abdominal wall and she was just soaked with all the blood. With her eyes she looked for me. She was trembling, could barely stand on her feet. The faster I had to react. I ran to her, pulled her into my arms and brushed the sweat-sticky hair from her forehead. She almost lost her balance. She allowed herself to be in my arms for
Meeting A Stranger (Complete✔) Blood
Ten minutes had passed, but in those ten minutes the Archangels' Hall had become a battlefield. Blood was spreading on the floor and I, too, had suffered quite a bit. I did not feel well. All attacks were aimed at me, and although this seemed like my fight, everyone else was fighting. They all defended me, did not let anyone approach me, but I was full of blood. It wasn't my own. I was not disgusted, but I felt sorry for the fallen. What had Nereus told the fallen that made them just throw themselves into danger? Nereus wanted me dead, so what use was it all? What would their reward have been? I looked around in the fray, avoiding a severed hand. I actually felt sorry for the fallen. I mean, I wouldn't be keen on a missing hand. Even Zayn was engrossed in a fight with them. He was hurt. A laceration was clearly visible on his temple. I almost smiled. It reminded me of how I found him. Injured in an alley. Ingrateful and naughty. Arrogant and without scruples. Nobody paid any attenti
Meeting A Stranger (Complete✔) Fight
Say, are you going to interfere?" She asked softly. He almost got the impression that she was the most vulnerable woman in the universe. Why hadn't he noticed earlier how pretty she really was? Lucifer studied her closely. In these long, blonde curls that shimmered like gold, he would have loved to dig with his hands. Her big blue eyes looked at him almost fearfully. She didn't look like an angel, no, nowhere near. She could have been a fairy. Petite, fragile and beautiful. But behind this beautiful mask sat an archangel. So she too could become something that was anything but beautiful. Still ... he recognized the true essence in her. The helpless woman who just wanted to be protected. He blinked. It's been silent for far too long.“If Nereus gets into debt within the two days, then I definitely won't sit still. If nothing happens, you will not see me again. "Chest rose and stretched.“I'm sorry, but that's all too much for me. Maybe a
Meeting A Stranger (Complete✔) Ruler of hell
I didn't like these pejorative looks at all."Just imagine before you talk to me like that," I said now. Suddenly the one with the unusual eyes smiled.“Little one, I like you. I bet you belong to Zayn. "I liked his tone of voice. I dropped my mask and smiled."Right. I am Nyria. ", I replied and held out my hand to him.Contrary to my expectations, his handshake was gentle and it seemed to me that he could understand why I was so dismissive in the first place.“I'm Trae, I'm happy. Behind me are Gaven, Jaze, and Kuja. We are ghouls. "I almost grimaced at his words. Ghouls? Wasn't that body eater? Kind of disgusting ... I felt a gentle breath inside. It was Zayn who wanted to find out how I was feeling. A soft laugh reached my ears. Apparently he found my reaction funny."So you are the little Nephilim that everyone is after.", The ghoul with the black eyes spoke up. It was Jaze."Everyone is af
Meeting A Stranger (Complete✔) Reconsider
“Little one, you are incorrigible. Be that as it may, I would advise against just marching in there. Give them five days. If they haven't stopped Nereus by then, you can act. Find some reliable people. They should be good fighters because no one can say how the guardian angels will react when they see you. It is quite possible that they believe that you would want to snatch the kingdom of heaven. "I only understood the station and cocked my head."What are Guardian Angels, please?" I asked and looked at Zayn expectantly. His hand poked my side briefly.“Guardian angels are not far below the archangels. They are the protectors, make sure that everyone obeys the law and nobody causes trouble. They protect the archangels and should they notice an uninvited guest in heaven, he can be prepared for something. Either the intruder is tortured and thrown into the dungeon, or he ends up right at Lucifer's feet. "Amused by the choice of words, th
