❝ NOT ENGLAND! ❞

LILITH COULD FEEL HER MOTHER TAKING HER VEIL OFF.

Night was ending and Artemis assured them that dawn was coming. It was colder and darker and snowier than ever.

Up on the hill, Westover Hall's windows were completely lightless. Lilith wondered if the teachers had even noticed the Di Angelos and Dr. Thorn were missing yet.

She didn't wanted be around because apparently, the only names that Mrs. Gottschalk remembered was "Lilith Nightangel and Percy Jackson."

She pretty sure they don't have a photo of her but still she was labelled as a Serial killer. She didn't want any limelight when Sirius Black is on loose and he was bestfriends with her Aunt.

She was pretty sure he would recognise her in a heartbeat.

The Hunters broke camp as quickly as they'd set it up. Lilith was shivering a little as Artemis stared into the east like she was expecting something.

Lilith was just putting on her avaitor jacket when she felt someone stubbornly wrapping their arms around her torso. She stumbled a little but stopped herself from falling as her hands automatically ran through Nico's black hairs.

"You didn't join the hunt, did you?" He mumbled in her shirt as Lilith's heart sank.

"No." She said, her voice so soft that it was barely above whisper but the boy heard it clearly and tightend his grip around her. "You okay?"

"I am fine." He said stubbornly as he pulled away and held her hand. He glared at the group of hunters that were greeting Bianca. The girl looked back at them but Nico immediately looked away.

Lilith gave the girl a hesitant smile, she didn't knew what to do.

Nico shivered which grabbed Lilith's attention quickly and she quickly made him wear her jacket.

The boy pouted, "It's too big for me." He tried to remove the jacket but Lilith slapped his hand sharply.

"Shut up and wear it, Brownie." Lilith said, her voice stern when she noticed how red his cheeks were from the cold. "Don't take it off."

The boy pouted but neverthelessly nodded at her words. Lilith gave him a small smile, "Well, you are meeting the next god of your favourite list."

Nico looked up at her and grinned, easily distracted as he pulled the jacket closer to his chest, snuggling in it.

Lilith held his hand but then Bianca came, "Nico.." she hesitantly began, looking at Lilith, the Nightangel girl nodded. "Nico...I want to talk to you..."

Nico stubbornly turned away and hid behind Lilith, his hands tightly clutching hers as the girl grimaced. She gave a small nod to Bianca and turned towards Nico. She bent down to his eyes level as he looked up at her, "Brownie, Listen to her once.."
