LOGINWrapped in a towel, I stepped out of the bathroom. My waist-length hair was dripping over my shoulders. I didn't bother to dry them, instead I searched my apartment with my eyes. It was small, but modern. Everything was kept in white and glass created an elegant effect. Barefoot and without making a noise, I padded into the living room, where I had dumped the man on the sofa. I had taken care of him as much as possible. It was no longer dirty, there was also no blood to be seen and I had also taken care of its wounds. There were some advantages to having worked in the hospital for a while ... Now he was asleep, the corners of my mouth twitching at the thought of him looking like a little boy. How old was he? Twenty-five maybe? I leaned against the door frame and crossed my arms. He had slept for two days, so slowly he would have to wake up. As if on cue, his eyes opened. Again, the sight of them took my breath away. That a man could be so beautiful was incomprehensible to me. He eyed me murderously. Maybe I should be scared, but I wasn't. It could be that this Zayn was a murderer and also made the impression, but I didn't have the feeling that I was in danger yet.
"It was a mistake on your part to bring me here," he growled menacingly and sat up.
He noticed that his wounds had been taken care of and that he was wearing a new shirt. I hadn't buttoned it, I didn't know why myself. Nevertheless, I liked the sight. His hair was tousled, which made him look incredibly sexy. I let my lips curl in a mocking grin.
"Why ...", he started, but a loud and constant knock on the door made him fall silent and let me get serious.
"Open up, police!" Boomed a scratchy voice from outside through the door.
I looked back at Zayn and put my finger to my lips to signal him to be quiet.
After a few seconds I went to the front door, which I opened hesitantly.
"Can I help you?" I said in a high and girlish voice, through the crack in the door.
It couldn't hurt to play country innocence.
"V-sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you." Stuttered the officer, who gave me red cheeks. Despite the few inches that the door was only open, he had noticed that I was only wrapped in a towel.
"Come on in, I'll just put something on quickly." I said with a smile and opened the door completely. I held out my arm invitingly. I led him into the kitchen, from where he couldn't see into the living room. I quickly disappeared into the bedroom, where I slipped into shorts and shirt.
"So how can I help you?" I asked innocently and sat down at the kitchen table across from him. I spared my manners and didn't offer him anything to drink, it sure wouldn't take long. I bowed my head coquettishly, whereupon the somewhat plump man with the thinning hair scratched the back of his head. He pulled out a pen and pad.
"It was reported to us that you helped a criminal to escape," he got to the point. I looked at him, playfully shocked.
"What? A criminal? Who are you talking about? ”, My voice slid a few octaves higher. The officer got serious and adjusted his hat.
"You were out with Milla Patricks two days ago, is that correct?"
I nodded. Then came the next question.
"You were on your way home and took a shortcut through an alley, right?"
Again nodded. The man made a note, then looked at me again.
"You met Zayn Vaher, correct?"
I pretended not to know what to do and swallowed conspicuously several times.
“There was an injured man lying there and Milla told me who he was. I didn't know him, however. Milla wanted to run away with me, but I thought about not helping him. Then she ran away. I really wanted to help him, but then got scared and ran home. "I whispered girlishly. The man wrote down hastily. All you heard was the pen scratching on the paper.
"Why didn't you call the police?" He asked and looked at me again.
Was that what I imagined or did I see a flash of suggestion in his eyes? Anger flared up in me for a moment, but I pushed it aside. Instead, I shrugged my shoulders like a child.
“I was scared. And Milla wanted to call the police, that's why I didn't do it. "I confessed quietly and looked at him with bowed head. The officer sighed.
"All right, that would be all then."
He got up, I followed suit, but held out my arm helplessly, only to let it sink again shortly afterwards.
"When I got here I sent Milla a text message saying that I was safe at home. Didn't she tell you about it? "
He looked at me in surprise.
"No." was all he said.
Ten minutes later I was sitting alone at the kitchen table with a glass of scotch in my hand.
"You should wear something sensible before you catch a cold.", A smoky voice suddenly breathed into my ear. Coldly and without batting an eyelid, I replied:
"Says the one who crouched in an alley wearing only jeans."
Zayn took the glass from my hand and took a long swig. He closed his eyes with pleasure.
"You have taste," he said now also tonelessly and roughly grabbed my arm and then pulled me to my feet.
"Why did you help me?" He growled, his face only a few millimeters away from mine. How I would have loved to kiss him now!
"I don't owe you an answer."
I almost threw the words in his face, which is why he apparently pushed me away angrily. I slammed against the edge of the table, which digged extremely painfully into my right kidney. The bottle of scotch on the table clattered to the floor. It shattered and the golden brown liquid spread across the white tiles.
"The good scotch," I managed wistfully.
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
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
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
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
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
“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
