"You're supposed to be dead." I grit out clenching my jaw

"Hmmm, yes." He traces his fingers against my chest and I quickly grab his wrist his eyes snap to mine "I see you have a human mate." He removes his hand from my grip and hops onto the kitchen counter. 

"Yes."

"Cool, anyways lets get to the point yes? I need a body."

"What?"

"I can only stay in this body for so long, she's human. I need a demon or angel, a powerful one."

"I don't know why your asking me."

"Because I know you have someone in mind."

"I'm not giving you Luciano." I turn around and start to boil water for pasta

"No not Luciano, there's someone else." I think a little and realize who he's talking about.

"No, I can't I've done enough."

"Yes, you can and you will. Or else I will jump off a cliff still in her body, I will survive but we all know her puny body won't be able to."

"Father-"

"Do it." He snaps "Also stop calling me father, I rejected you. Call me by my name." (This wasn't a pun from the last chapter it just happened to be the same name.)

"Satan." I whisper 

"Yes?"

"I can-"

"You can, I know you know who I'm talking about. I will be leaving now." 

"Wait!" I turn around and see the red eyes are now brown, she flinches at my tone. "Fuck." I whisper

"YOU'RE GOING TO BURN THE WATER!" She yells running past me, once you get possessed you don't remember anything. 

"You can't burn water babe." I chuckle

"Why are you so tense."

"Oh nothing, I just have to do another bad thing to someone I've caused enough trouble to."

"Who?"

Ayla pov

"You're telling me I taste like salt?" Apollo says as he takes of his shirt getting ready for bed.

"Yes!" I jump into the bed and pull the covers up "It's weird, like if it was food I'd tell you to take a mint, gum or brush your teeth but it's salt!"

"That's weird."

"It is and that's why yesterday-"

"Oh thank bacon!"

"What?" I turn to him confused as he climbs into bed 

"I thought it was because you were going to leave me for him." He pulls me into his chest

"What if I do." I blurt out and immediately slap my hand over my mouth

"I don't know, I'd be happy your happy but still sad I'm not the one making you smile." 

"You do make me smile."

"Not the way he did, I see it. It's always a half smile or a fake one, never a full one. I became a changed person once I met you, I can't even imagine doing what I was going to do to you when we first met."

I just hum playing with the blanket, I start to wonder what would happen if Luciano comes back. Asking for forgiveness, that's what I'm all about right? Forgive and forget but what if I can't do either. What if I.. forget and forget. I hear Apollo's breathing even out, how can he fall asleep so easily, doesn't he worry or think?

What about what Lester said, how they need us and how they miss up. Did he really mean it? Does he need me? 

Let's find out Quinn says

But Apollo. I respond

What about him? You haven't fucked him since you've got married, stop acting as if you're in love with him. You love him as a friend, a best friend nothing more. Now get up or I'm taking over. She snaps, I rolls my eyes.

"Language." I whisper, I slip out of Apollo's hold and replace it with a pillow. I open the closet quietly

Just go in you pajamas! Quinn yells, I tip toe out of the room and just start running. I run all the way to the gate, the guards don't even question me and just let me through. I forgot that that I removed the stairs to Heaven that you must fly up, I fall. Fall all the way down to Hell, I don't even bat my wings out. I just fall.

"Majesty!"

"Your honor!" My guards yell after me as I fall showing not no signs of batting my wings out

Just as I see the ground, I brace for impact knowing I will bat my wings out once my nose is touching the ground but instead I landed in a pair of arms and let out an annoying huff. Not only because they caught me but because of the sparks and heat I feel. 

"Now tell me what do I owe the pleasure of my former mate falling into my hands... quite literally." He chuckles, oh lawd his chuckle. I feel heat rise up to my cheeks as he places me on my feet, I start to fiddle with my dress suddenly embarrassed.

"I-Um.. I-"

"Don't act all shy now Angel, how about I give you some help." I look at him confused "Bring Quinn out." My eyes widen, the moment he said that I felt Quinn leave my body. 

"Hey." She says "We're here to know if it's true."

"What's true?"

"Everything Lester said."
