Gabe’s P.O.V.
Synestra had told me she trusted me. She had chosen me because of her trust in me. Yet I was lying to her, about everything. I wanted to tell her the truth. To tell her there was so much more on the line than our feelings for one another. I was honestly surprised that the demon hadn't already told her what I am just to try to turn her away from me. I wondered if he realized there was an emotional connection between Synestra and myself.
We had been in this cabin for five days and the bond between us was only growing. We spent most of our days hanging out and getting to know each other on a deeper level. We traded stories about how we had grown up and the people we cared about. Some days we would swim in the lake, others we would lay in the hammock

Synestra’s P.O.V.Gabe had run a warm bubble bath for me and lit about forty candles surrounding the tub. He had turned on romantic music, John Legend, I loved his music so calming but also so romantic. He said I needed to relax but I couldn't help but wonder if there was more to his actions than he was letting on. Gabe and I had become much coser over the past several days. We had spent so much time getting to know each other. It felt like we had known each other for years rather than just the few short weeks it had actually been. After about thirty minutes into my bath I decided it was about time to get out. I slipped on the silk robe I found in the bathroom and walked out into the open room.“How was your bath angel?” he asked.

Damien’s P.O.V.Synestra had been missing for almost a week and I was no closer to finding out where that asshole angel had taken her. I knew there was only one way to find her and that she would hate me for it if she ever found out. I had to go talk to her mother. I had to remove the magic my father had used on her so she would know everything that had been going on.I let myself into their home, knowing Lailah wouldn't be home just yet. Her typical shift at the hospital had just ended and from what I knew of her she would be home in about fifteen minutes. I made myself comfortable on the couch after helping myself to a glass of sweet tea.I heard the sound of her keys in the lock and she entered the house. She sensed my presence before she saw me. Her wings sprouted from her back as she pre

Synestra’s P.O.V.I wrapped the robe around myself as Gabe went to the door. My heart was beating out of my chest. I looked around frantically trying to come up with an exit plan. I had a feeling that it would be some of Lucifer's men at the door looking for me and I had to have a way out of here. I knew Gabe would fight them to protect me as long as he could, giving me extra time to get away.I slipped on a pair of Gabe's shorts and a t-shirt I found discarded on the floor after last night. I tried opening the window that faced the back of the cabin, I was sure I could make it out of the window before anyone could get past Gabe. I pulled up on the window with all of my strength and it wouldn't budge. I double checked the locks on the window , but still nothing. I assumed the window must have been painted shut. I knew I could make it to the ba

Damien’s P.O.V.I looked around at the hundreds of dead angels littering the floor around me. I was covered in blood.. My blood soaked shirt clung to my heaving chest. The metallic taste of blood sat heavy in my mouth. Their white wings had been stained red. Blood was dripping down the walls and off the ceiling. I stepped over the bodies on my way out of the building. I took in the sights around, savoring the scent of blood in the air and the squishing sound with every step I took. I smiled, admiring the scene in front of me. It was official, the old me was back and it felt so good.None of the angels at Halo had given me information that I could use. I had to find someone that would be able to give me more information about Gabe. I decided to go back to Seraphine, hoping that she may have some more information.

Synestra’s P.O.V.After Ramiel’s visit and the revelation that not only was Gabe an angel, but so were my mother, my possible father and myself I had confined myself in the bedroom for two days. Gabe had been respectful of my wishes for space and had been sleeping on the couch in the living room. I was angry. I was angry that I had been lied to my whole life. I was angry that both Damien and Gabe had known the truth about what I was and chose to keep it from me. Most of all though, I was angry at myself for falling in love with both of these men and not realizing they were only using me to gain an advantage for their respective sides.I stood in front of the mirror and ran my fingers over the marks on my neck. Both Damien and Gabe had marked me, claiming me as their own. If I was being honest with myself I was in love with both of them.

Synestra’s P.O.V.A splitting headache was throbbing in my skull. I was sure I was going to lose consciousness when I noticed a blinding white light. When my vision cleared I was looking at the face of a very imposing man with huge white wings. I am not sure how I knew but I instantly knew I was looking into the eyes of the archangel Michael.Michael was a very large man well over six foot tall. He had broad shoulders and large muscular forearms. His hair shined like pure gold in the sunlight, his eyes were such a dark shade of brown they appeared to be almost black. The mere presence of him sent electrical shocks pulsing through my body that took me several seconds to realize were actually fear. I had spent two weeks living with Lucifer without ever truly feeling afraid. This man, however, had me trembling with fear.

Synestra’s P.O.V.I could feel the electricity buzzing inside me flowing along my veins as if my blood had been set on fire. I wasn't sure what this new feeling was but I liked it. For the first time in my life I felt powerful. Like I could do anything. I had been powerful enough to stop both an angel and a demon who were hell bent on killing each other. I began to wonder what this meant. What am I? More importantly what else can I do?Both Damien and Gabe were looking at me as if I were some unheard of creature in the zoo. The look of bewilderment on their faces made me want to hide behind the tree. Damien was the first to reach me. I could feel the concern rolling off of him.“What the hell was that, love? Are you ok?” he cupped my face in his hands. His eyes had returned to t

Azazel’s P.O.V.After I had dropped off Synestra at her mother’s house I realized I was hungry again. I guess all that fighting really works up an appetite. It was pretty late so there were no restaurants open. I went back to the palace and made my way to the kitchen. Lucifer kept a full staff in the kitchen at all times. I think that started around the time Damien and I had hit our teenage years. At the time we were both always hungry and freshly cooked food was always better than conjured food.As I entered the kitchen I noticed the place was quiet. The servants that worked in the kitchen were mostly lower level demons. They were the ones most people think of when they hear the word demon. They were typically small, no more than three or four feet tall and had colorful scaly skin and dark or red eyes. These types of demons were not able to m
