"Isn't Faelon a female's name?" Atlas asked Faelon after they appeared inside Sophia's sparse living room. Faelon shook his head."No, it means little wolf, and it's a male name," he answered as he followed after Sophia. Sophia entered the small bathroom and Faelon stood in the narrow hallway waiting for her to exit. "I am going to search for the spirit so don't mind me…or help me…at all," Atlas grunted in frustration as he headed toward the kitchen and started looking in the cupboards and utility closet. Faelon glanced toward the small kitchen table and saw his wing feather inside a crystal vase. He grinned slightly and pulled a few more out of his wing and placed them alongside the single one. They appeared within it as black as pitch. Atlas was watching and shaking his head and plucked out the feathers Faelon had placed in the vase making them evaporate into nothingness."No disturbing the residence. That is the number one rule. That and pets and small children can see us even whe
Atlas eyed the dark angel and was curious about what had caused him to grow more sour than usual."Who pissed in your breakfast or lunch, my compadre?" He asked bluntly. Faelon hissed and rubbed his eyes before scowling at the reaper."Some male named Phil is bringing Sophia dinner tonight. He is good for her according to the old male who owns this establishment," he complained, causing Atlas to chuckle."Then why don't we just pop in and make sure nothing nefarious is going to happen during their dinner, big guy, Eh? That sounds rather stalkerish and right up your alley," Atlas teased. Faelon watched the reaper and smiled wide enough to expose his fangs. Atlas's eyes widened in shock."You are scary…don't smile at me like that," Atlas mumbled sourly. Faelon rolled his eyes."I don't even know how to gain a woman's interest nor do I know the first thing about wooing," he sighed. Atlas shrugged and told him neither did he. Faelon asked the time and Atlas glanced at his pocket watch."I
Faelon lay on the bed and crossed his arms behind his neck as he stared up at the popcorn ceiling. Atlas glanced down at him and sighed."What are you thinking about?" Atlas questioned."I am wondering why both Phil's and mine hearts started beating around Sophia. Seems uncanny and mundane if she is already marked by the demon. What purpose would it serve? I am curious if Sophia causes all Angel hearts to start thumping," Faelon voiced his thoughts. Atlas rubbed at his chin."Should I have Rai come and see if the human stirs his heart?" Faelon chuckled as he side-eyed the reaper."Rai is already mated. It wouldn't affect him as his heart beats only for Sebastian and perhaps your birth mother," Faelon growled roughly. Atlas grinned slightly and vanished. When the reaper reappeared he was accompanied by a young twenty-something aged male."This is Serpio and he's a fledgling angel," Atlas announced proudly. Faelon sat up and shook his head."How is he going to meet Sophia…you haven't th
Randall Mathis sat nude on his leather sofa surrounded by several scantily clad females that were willing to do anything he asked for. His associate Anthony handed him his cell phone, saying Vincent was on it."Hello half-breed, have you gotten my light?" He questioned sourly and frowned at the answer he received."Listen, I only got you out of prison because you promised me to get that soul. I must have it in order to make Lucifer squirm at my feet," he growled menacingly. Randall pressed the end call button and tossed it back to the demon standing over him."The police have been bought off and our trackers have confirmed that the woman is indeed Sophia Parks," the demon said firmly."Thanks for the updates, Anthony," Randall said sullenly and rubbed at his red eyes."Get all these females out of here," he ordered and stood his naked self up."If that worthless shit of mine cannot follow through with his pledge then I will simply kill her myself," he beamed happily as his clawed fing
Faelon woke to the smell of food cooking and felt saliva collecting in his mouth. He sat up and saw Sophia in the kitchen in front of the stove with a spatula in her hand. He yawned and stretched out his back which was sore from sleeping on the uncomfortable furniture. Tossing the blanket to the side he went to the small bathroom with Sophia watching him with a raised brow. After relieving himself he washed his hands and went back out into the kitchen."Did you lower the seat?" She questioned with a condescending look. Faelon's mouth went into a straight line as he turned, headed back to the bathroom, and set the toilet seat down. When he returned a large plate of food was sitting on the small table."Sit and eat, Faelon. I have some questions for you," Sophia said stoically. Faelon watched her get a glass of water and a plate of toast before she sat across from him."How did you know where my bathroom was?" She asked curiously. Faelon looked up with a piece of bacon hanging out of hi
"What do you want, reaper?" Phil inquired roughly not seeing Sophia off to the side. His eyes widened at hearing her yelp."You are a reaper!?" She bleated out in a panic. Atlas glanced back at Sophia gripping her chest and shivering."Smooth move ex-lax," Atlas grunted and shoved past him to enter the room leaving Sophia staring at Phil. He could see the confusion and tears filling her single brown eye. Phil cursed and grabbed her arm and pulled her down the hall to his room. Once inside he closed his eyes and pulled the frightened woman into his arms to give her what comfort he could."What is going on, Phil? Why are there angels and reapers surrounding me? Am I dying?" She asked in a worrisome manner."No…I, ah I … listen, Sopha, take a seat and I will explain everything," he mumbled softly. Sophia wiped her damp eye and pulled her pill bottle out and looked at it a moment before shoving it back into her pocket. She wanted to be clear-headed about whatever Phil was going to tell he
"I should build a luxury resort here, this hotel is a shit hole," Randall complained as he threw open the curtains to his first-floor room. He frowned at not having the media and swarms of humans trying to gain his attention."At least this room has a door directly connected to mine," Anthony said softly. Randall rubbed at his chin as he glanced down the Main Street of Winterset."Dull place. Are we certain that woman resides here?" He asked for clarification."The tracker we hired confirmed it before vanishing. I trust the guy so yeah, she lives here. I'm going to head to my room boss," he announced as he gestured toward the closed door separating their room. "Contact my half-breed son and tell him to come and visit with me here," he ordered bluntly. Anthony nodded and closed the separating door. Randall waved him off and sat down on the side of the bed. He scowled at the obnoxious colored pattern of the polyester comforter and cursed his weak son for putting him in this jam.Faelon
"If you want to join my ranks son, I highly suggest that you find your ex-girlfriend and blow her fucking head off. I have waited for over a decade and I refuse to wait another day!" Randall snarled at his son Vincent. Anthony grinned slightly and handed Randall's loaded gun to him."Are you going to shoot me?" Vincent asked incredulously. Randall felt the weight of the revolver resting in his palm and chuckled."You are not worth anything to me if you don't do what I ask," he said firmly as he waved the gun about. He paused then handed the handle out toward Vincent."Take it and use it. They are hollow points…Earn the use of my last name, half-breed" he smirked. "How do I find Sophia?" Vincent asked bluntly.Anthony opened the connecting door and a Romanian man came stepping through."This is Nico, he is the best demon tracker there is here on earth and a clairvoyant. He will find her wherever she may be," Randall said solemnly. "She is currently in the proximity but is leaving soo
