บททั้งหมดของ Wings of Momentum: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

Upon parting ways with Reggie, she said she'd try Carlos again and let me know. She also said Carlos is an Alux, or a descendant rather. He lost most his Fae abilities from his bloodline being watered down with the humane race. He is, however, good at finding safe houses and blending in the shadows. Walking down the main strip, I could see the old-fashioned street lights start to flicker. It was already 7 and the sun was kissing the tops of the sharp peaked mountains in the background. West City is beautiful through every season. Standing on the main strip you can see mountains to the left, soft rolling hills to the right and if you stand still, you can get a whiff of the massive open ocean behind you, though kind of far, the smell is always hitching a ride on the breeze in this direction. I continued walking for a few more minutes until I could see Cornell Plaza start to loom above the shops and eateries that lined main street. Looking silvery from the direction I was walking due t

Reaching the building, I walked up the steps and reached the glass doors. Looking through, I noticed the hand written 'Out of Order' sign hanging on the elevator at end of the foyer. So going in I headed for the stairs with random ideas on how to get back at the big bad wolf for hurting my feelings. My mind being so focused on the stupidness of being petty, I didn't pay attention to what was about to happen.I opened the door to stairs, stepped in and froze, but it was too late. The pain introducing its self to the back of my head sent my sight and thoughts of pissing Cash off into darkness. I knew I didn't die because I could still feel the pain when I finally came to. There are very few moments in time I can be grateful for the lack of pain after a soul swap. This was one of them. I also felt pain in my jaw and wrists. I could tell my wrists were tied to something, and apparently was blindfolded as well, because I know my eyes were wide open. I calmed down for a second, being aliv

Trying to move whatever arm I could, I was able to bring it to my chest. Right below my neck, I stretched my fingers already covered in my blood, and managed to draw it. His calling card, his heavenly symbol that very few knew. It would connect with the soul inside me, and Michael would feel it. I had only tried it one other time, when it wasn't my death on the line. I prayed it worked this time as well.Within moments, I felt the presence of Heaven, he had come. I could hear Michael swear as he pushed a little energy in me to make my wings retract back in."Your dying, rest now." He whispered. It was almost like sweet permission to let go of the soul trying to stay in my broken body.I knew I could get on with the ride to nothingness. Cash would be safe as long as Michael was here. I suddenly realized the sounds I could hear had become distant. My train to death was leaving the station. Like looking out the window going down the tracks, I could barely make out the voices as I got fur

"It was definitely one of my men, but the smell is what caught my attention. Sulfur is not a pleasant thing to the nose." I quickly looked from the floor to Cash's face, and then back at Michael once I heard the word sulfur come out of Cash's mouth. "Sulfur? There's no way Cash, that would mean it was a demon, not a wolf. Demons can only possess humans, not Others, and, they'd have to be pretty high up there on Oblivion's food chain to even manage that! Well, unless.." My words trailed off, I knew I had to be wrong in what I was about to say, I just couldn't believe it. "Unless what, little bird?" I shot Michael a scowl as he smirked, and noticed Cashes sharp glance at him. Do nonhuman males get something once a month as well? "Unless...the wolf was a were? I mean, they didn't stem from being a wolf originally, they are still human at heart. That still doesn't make sense though. I have never heard of, or got wind of a demon able to possess any type of wolf." The moment I said it, I

"Yes, I know. I can't sleep on an empty stomach though." I commented, feeling the effects of not having anything but coffee today.I turned and looked at Cash, he looked at the driver in the center mirror and the driver nodded his head."We will stop up ahead" Cash informed us. "Thank goooshh.. I'm starving! I could really us a big , thick.." Reggie being herself, looked at the poor driver grinning as she lifted a brow, before she turned to me and laughed."..Cheese burger, what about you doll? I know you must be hungry?" My cheeks turned a light pink as she winked at me. I knew exactly what she was insinuating. I was too exhausted to play along though, unfortunately."I would just settle for a hotdog at this point." Knowing a second too late that I just fed into her fun. Reggie laughed again, finding what I said hysterical but it gave her the perfect opening to put her hand on the driver's shoulder."Did you hear that? Ayda would like a hotdog." She said to him coyly as she seductiv
