My Fallen Angel (bxb) ✔

Chapter 37 - Melkopnius

This might be a bit of a spoiler for the chapter but I didn't want it to be confusing so here is a short guide to how a character which you will meet shortly speaks.
Soft s sounds are portrayed by me writing three of that letter, so:
us becomes usss
pierce becomes pierccce
explosives become exxxplosssivesss
However, words that have a double s like happiness would be written as happinesss

Kai's POV

Zorander cautions me against going back into the room until they return, and I nod and blow Raziel a kiss before waving to Zorander and heading out of the room.

Shadows dance on the walls as the lights mounted on them flicker. The crackling of fire whispers in my ears and a cold shiver runs down my spine. I jump backwards when I hear ear piercing screams coming from the room I just left. I shuffle farther away from the door, going deeper into the hallway and away from the wailing.

A sudden whooshing sound rings through the air before there is silence. I look back at the room I just exited before shaking my head and continuing in the opposite direction. I open a door on the right to find a spacious kitchen with black and white décor.

My eyes widen when I open the door on the opposite side and find an indoor sauna, a hot tub and what looks like a small sleeping pod. The smell of lavender wafts through into my nose as I walk into the room. Several lotions and body wash line the left wall and I giggle as I sniff some of them, finally settling on rubbing a very berry lotion on my hands.

Come to usss, voices hiss in my mind and I shriek, glancing around frantically.

"Who...who said that?" My voice is barely above a whisper as I creep towards the exit.

Come to the room of our massster, they hiss again.

I hurry from the sauna room hoping that the voices are only in that room but to no avail because as soon as I close the door, the voices sound again.

Come to usss. The nexxxt door on your left.

I release another squeak but decide to follow the voices. Zorander wouldn't leave me alone in his house with something that could hurt me, would he? My footsteps are drowned out by the sound of my pounding heart as I make my way down the hallway.

I halt outside of a plain black door with a gold door knob and take a deep breath before turning the knob. "Hello?"

What am I doing? Why am I listening to the hissing voices in my head?

To your right. Behind the curtainsss.

I slip past the round bed with black and grey bed sheets and head towards a set of floor to ceiling curtains which take up the entire right wall. My hand trembles as it reaches towards the small gap in the curtains, tugging them to one side.

A gasp escapes me and my eyes widen. "Woah." Behind the curtain is a huge room with three white walls and thick glass making up the fourth wall.

Trees stretching up to the high ceilings, large, misshapen rocks, boulders and lush, green plants adorn the room. A large lake with semi transparent greenish-blue water sits in the middle of the room. Closer to the glass are little grey pebbles and pretty red flowers, while vines hang down from the sturdy trees.

"What is this place?" The awe I'm feeling cannot be hidden. It is one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen, and not only that, but it carries a soft warmth to it in every detail.

Our home.

"Who are you?"

Our name is Melkopniusss. We are one of the lassst remaining Ssserignipen, a creature from Hell.
