Eurydice's Poison
Michael turned to Samael, composure restored. “I'm leaving Noor in your charge, Samael. She appears to have healed adequately, considering her ordeal. As her captain, Zadkiel will perform routine checks on Raziel's daughter.” And you, seemed to be his subtext. Michael's voice was firm, absolute.
“So she's my charge,” Samael said wearily. He turned to Zadkiel, eyes raw. “The girl has suffered enough. Give her the respite she needs. Raziel owes her that.”
Michael sighed. “There is none, when the war is eternal.”
Samael tensed. “Only because we make it so.”
Michael smiled sadly. “And you have the solution, Samael?”
“I tried once,” he said through gritted teeth. He unconsciously touched his heart. “It was my greatest failure.”
Michael nodded, grim. Zadki

Samael clenched me possessively. More inappropriate friction resulted.“Aaah?” My face turned red. He bit his lips, aroused. A groan escaped his mouth.“OUT, GOAT!” he roared.I cried out softly. “Sam, aren't angels supposed to be- um- unequipped? Then- then why...”He looked down, eyes glazed over in lust. “Anything but,” he whispered.Beelzebub stepped in. “Son of a Gorgon, what is the matter with you?-” He stopped dead in his tracks, seeing me. Sam hid me under his cloak, like a brother hiding a cereal box toy from his twin.“Go away, Bub. I'm busy.”The executive's face grew grim. “She's stacked. I'll give you that.”“It's your mangy hide that's to blame!” Samael glared daggers at Puck, deaf to Beelzebub's judgment.&ld
Grim Reaper's Bride The Heart Girt With a Serpent
I gasped for breath. Death held me in his arms. He sang of maggots and rot.“The hell?” I demanded.He looked at me guiltily. The song changed to worms. I sighed, too weak to rise. The rain was sweet on my tongue.“Is this some shamanic death-rebirth thing?” I said weakly.He nodded in response. His raven wings furled open. They glistened with hidden jewels.“Remind me to never do acid.”“Rest, lemming.” He fell silent. His eyes were piercing blue.“Your eyes. They're from before the Fall. This was your old gaze, wasn't it?”“Do you ever sleep?” he lamented.“I can sleep when I'm dead.”He sighed, tracing the back of my neck. “Why didn't you run away?”I leaned my head on his chest. “To where, Corpseboy? Home? I
Grim Reaper's Bride The Only Wayward Son
I witnessed his daily torture. Each morning, Samael fell. His shrieks heralded the rising sun. His plea echoed through the centuries: “Don't make me face this alone.” His beloved brother crushed him. Samael bit his heel like a beast. Michael ripped his glory from him: “Burn,” Michael cursed his twin. Stripped of his thorny crown, Samael fell to the howling sea. The blackness crushed him to it. The dark mother swallowed all, trying to erase his abortion from existence. But he held fast to his hideousness, made weapons from his pain. They sprouted from his rage, pinning the abyss to his bones. He roared “I AM.” The first claim of being. The blackness bowed before him. It recognized its master, the Lightbringer whose shadow it sprang from. He moved inside me like the Holy Ghost. “Do you remember how we fell?” Samael took Go
Grim Reaper's Bride I Love You Eternally
I slept for a very long time.By the time I awoke, he was bones. They were strewn across the bed. The sunlight had eaten everything. I held his skull in my hands. It looked forlornly at me.“Samael?” I whispered.I'm here.He smiled. Just like he always had.Tears stung my eyes. I could barely form thoughts past my panic. I was angry at him. Sad. “What kind of game are you playing?”It will be alright. Just hold me.“Samael. What- What do I do?”Bring my remains to the river. Anoint me with the waters of life.I gathered his bones in the black sheets, now a shroud. I carried his remains like Ezekiel, knowing the marrow hid life. His room was vast, endless. I would call it a tower if it had any humanity in it. Instead, it was a living thing. At its cente
Grim Reaper's Bride Of Dragons in Your Arms
I thought I'd woke from a fever dream. I was back in my room alone, with the sun just creeping past the sill. I nearly danced out of bed, praising the morning for saving me.“What the hell kind of dream was that?” I shuddered. One in which I'd been the reincarnation of Eve, marched like a happy idiot into Hell, and, oh yeah, hooked up with the Reaper.“What the...?” A white scar shone on my breast, under the dark lace of my nightgown. I fell to my knees and gagged.“No,” I whispered. My eyes were catacombs. “No way in hell did I do that!”I frantically scanned my room. There was a rose at the head of my bed, stem charred as if it'd been roasted. It sat like a wicked promise.Revulsion seized me and I ran for the bathroom. I hurled til there was nothing but bile.I didn't leave my room for days. I slept until I c
Grim Reaper's Bride Fangs Fright
I crept onwards to the mansion, amazed I hadn't been caught. Then I remembered this was probably like a lobster trap. It looked like a house on the outside, but inside was a cage fitted just for me. And it wasn't like Sam- Sauron needed guards. Only Pallor would have been idiot enough to cross him, provided he was bribed by literature.Yards from the mansion, I questioned why I was here. Skeletons held a ball in the attic. The mansion's stone face was mortared with graves. I stood a yard from the entrance, an intimidating sweeping thing with a portico that bested the White House. Devils and fantastical beasts were carved into its wooden pillars. Wolves swallowed the crenelate. It was like a pipe dream from Hell.The door knocker yawned. It was a brass lion. Lionheart. Again.“Ah, a midnight snack. My master must have had surplus-”I whip
Grim Reaper's Bride A Coffin of a Lover
“Different?” he asked, voice strained.I closed my eyes, running my tongue up his thumb, sucking. I nipped the top. He groaned.“Pyrrhic, you said?” I asked ruefully, dragging my lips up his index finger.“You're teasing me.”“Genius. Your turn-ons are weird.”“Damn your feminine wiles.”“You really like damning things, don't you?”He pulled me down into the snow with him, wrapping his wings around us so I might as well have been on a feather bed in a parka.Schubert's quartet peaked. He spooned me against his chest, arms wrapped round me like a mummy. Samael lay like a corpse for a moment, apparently getting in the zone. I grimaced as he stiffened. He laughed roughly at my unease.“That's just wrong,” I informed him.“Angel lust-”“Don
Grim Reaper's Bride Dreams
It was then I remembered my nightmares. What drove me from my bed and sleep. I sunk into the night with him, to the depths of Samael's mind.Long ago, it happened. A reflection in the hourglass, the lip where sand siphons into the void.He gave me the heart from his breast. His ribs grew into the Tree. It throbbed in his hand like a secret. I took it, terrified.“It is yours,” he whispered. Tears softened his stony eyes. “It always has been. Take it. It will set you free.”“But I don’t want it! All I want is to be with you-”“Eve!” he cried, clasping his hands around mine. They trembled, and that scared me more than the gaping wound on his chest. He had never been afraid. “Please. If you do not, you will die.”“But this is our home-”“You do not belong here.” He p
