The God of Death falls in love with a human The witness
Nobody moved. The four figures stood at the entrance of the chamber, their faces hidden beneath dark hoods. Only their strange, glowing eyes were visible. Seraphina's first instinct was to step backward. Azrael immediately moved in front of her. "Stay behind me." She nodded. For once, she didn't argue. The hooded figure in front tilted its head. "You always do that." Azrael's eyes narrowed. "Do what?" "Stand between her and everything that wants her." The figure gave a quiet laugh. "It's becoming predictable." Noah looked at Seraphina. "Do you know these people?" "No." Azrael answered before she could. "They're not people." The figure smiled. "Still rude after all these centuries." Azrael's expression hardened. "You've been watching her." "We've been watching the Book." "She's simply where it led us." Alaric stepped forward. "Then why send warnings?" The figure turned toward him. "Because you knew what would happen if she opene
The God of Death falls in love with a human The found the library
footsteps upstairs grew louder. Thump. Thump. They moved slowly across the wooden floor of the bookstore. Almost as if whoever was up there was checking every shelf. Every corner. Every room. No one in the library moved. Seraphina held her breath. Noah instinctively took a step closer to her. Alaric closed his eyes for a second, listening. "There are four of them," he said quietly. "You can tell just from their footsteps?" Noah whispered. Alaric nodded. "They're not trying to hide." "And that's what worries me." Another loud bang echoed above. Something heavy hit the floor. Books tumbled from the shelves. Seraphina jumped. "They're destroying the bookstore." Alaric's face hardened. "They're looking for the entrance." "The entrance to this place?" "Yes." "But they shouldn't know it's here." "Exactly." He looked at Seraphina. "Which means someone told them." Far above the mortal world... Azrael appeared on the roof of the books
The God of Death falls in love with a human Beneath the Bookstore
Seraphina stared through the bookstore window."...Did you see that?"Noah nodded slowly."I did."The figure had disappeared almost as quickly as it appeared.The shop was silent again.No movement.No sound.Just rows of books sitting in the dark.Noah tried the front door.Locked."That's weird.""The flower shop owner said Elias left without locking it."Seraphina frowned."So who locked it?"Neither of them had an answer.Noah walked along the side of the building."There has to be another way in."Seraphina followed him.Behind the bookstore was a narrow alley filled with old cardboard boxes and a rusty fire escape.Nothing looked unusual.Until Noah stopped."Look."Half-hidden behind a stack of wooden crates was a small metal door.It looked old.Really old.Almost like it had been forgotten."There wasn't a door here before," Seraphina said."How do you know?""I've walked past this alley plenty of times.""I'm sure I would've noticed."Noah reached for the handle.Locked.He
The God of Death falls in love with a human The first secret
Seraphina didn't answer right away. She simply looked at Noah. "...Why would you ask me that?" Noah seemed to realize how strange the question sounded. He let out a small laugh. "Forget it." "I probably sound crazy." "You do," Seraphina admitted with a smile. "But..." "...I don't think you're crazy." There was a brief silence. Then she stepped aside. "Come in." Noah hesitated. "Are you sure?" "It's just for a few minutes." "And besides..." She held up the pen he had returned. "You've earned at least a cup of tea." He smiled. "I won't say no to that." A few minutes later, they were sitting in her living room. Two mugs of tea rested on the coffee table between them. Noah looked around the apartment. "It feels... peaceful." Seraphina laughed. "It only looks like this because I cleaned yesterday." "So you're saying this isn't normal?" "Definitely not." They both laughed. The awkwardness slowly faded. Noah took a sip of his tea. "It's good." "My grandma tau
The God of Death falls in love with a human The second Name
Azrael didn't speak. The chamber fell completely silent. Even Cassian looked surprised. "...Noah?" he repeated. The woman bowed her head. "Yes, my lord." "The Book of Witnesses recorded the name only moments ago." Cassian frowned. "That's impossible." "Two humans in such a short time?" The woman nodded. "I checked the record three times." "There was no mistake." Azrael's expression remained calm, but his mind was already racing. "Did the book reveal anything else?" "No." "Only the name." Cassian looked toward Azrael. "My lord..." "This cannot be a coincidence." Azrael knew that. The Book of Witnesses had remained almost unchanged for centuries. Now, within days... Two human names had appeared. First Seraphina. Now Noah. Something had started moving. He simply didn't know what. "Continue watching them," Azrael said. "But do not interfere." The woman bowed once more before leaving. As the doors closed, Cassian folded his arms
The God of Death falls in love with a human The name he shouldn't know
Three days passed. Seraphina hadn't seen another message in the strange book. The black feather still rested inside a small wooden box on her bookshelf. It hadn't disappeared. It hadn't changed. But every now and then... It gave off a faint warmth. Just enough to make her wonder if she was imagining it. At the hospital, life moved on. Patients came. Patients left. A little boy proudly showed everyone the cast on his arm, calling it his "superhero armor." An elderly woman secretly slipped chocolates into every nurse's pocket. Mia somehow managed to spill coffee on her own shoes. Again. Seraphina couldn't stop laughing. "How do you even do that?" "I have a gift." "A very messy gift." "I'm choosing to be offended." "You'll survive." "I hope so." The two of them were still laughing when the head nurse walked over. "Seraphina." "Can you help with the new student nurse?" "She's looking for you." "Already?" The head nurse nodded. "Be nice." "I am always nice."
