Vindicate || Devilish Sequel

Capitŭlum Triginta octo

Today the doctor had taken Raiza to run some more tests, so I told Irene to go back home and get some sleep. I could sense she was starting to flag and I couldn't let anything happen to her; Raiza wouldn't forgive me if something happened to her mum while I was here. 

Once Irene went home, I headed over to an abandoned part of the hospital where Niall, Rue and I had agreed on meeting so no one could bother us or heard anything we were going to talk about. 

I was the first one to get there so I just sat down on the floor and rested my back in the wall. I closed my eyes and try to evoke the memory of Raiza's warmth. 

It has been a week since we knew about Raiza's state. And it has been almost a month since I last heard her voice on that voice message she left me before heading directly to that trap.

I took out my phone and dialled voicemail. 

"Hey, asshole. You must be busy since it sent me straight to voicemail. I just wanted to tell you that I got out of work and I'll do some errands before going home. I love you, Harry."

"I love you, Raiza." I whispered hanging up. I had played it every day to make sure I wouldn't forget her voice. I laughed slightly and shook my head. As if I ever could.

With the help of Niall and Rue, I've been trying to find a way to get to the boundaries but so far no success.

Suddenly I heard footsteps coming closer. "It was about time you two showed up. What the hell were you doing?" I said as Niall and Rue came in sight. 

"I'm sorry! We bumped into Raiza's boss and he asked a lot of questions." Rue said.

"Raiza's boss?" I raised an eyebrow trying to remember who the hell was this boss. An image of a blond haired dude in a restaurant with my girlfriend came to my mind. I clenched my fist and got up. "What the hell did that fucker want?"

"Hey, H. Calm down." Niall said. "Dax just wanted to know how Raiza was. He just heard about the incident because the day it happened he left for vacations. He's truly worried about her."

"He should be worry about him." I whispered.

"Okay, before the overly jealous demon Romeo goes after Dax, shall we begin?" Rue rushed to say, changing the subject to what really mattered.

The blue-eyed demon handed me a piece of paper and I frowned when I read what was written in it. 

"The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the Lord come." Niall said in a serious and gloomy tone. 

"Joel 2:31." I said, running my hand through my hair feeling uneasy. Having heard that passage gave me the creeps. 

"You sure is it okay for you guys to say a passage of the Bible?" Rue asked nervous. "I don't want to have to put out the fire when your bodies burst into flames or something."

Niall and I looked at her and laughed. At least some of us could still have a sense of humour in a moment like this. "Don't worry. No one's going to burst into flames." At least not yet.

"Great. But what does it have to do with all this?" She asked. 

"It's related with the Blood Moon; a warning of the bad omens coming head." Niall told her. "Zayn must have known something we're missing out... Why did he choose precisely this Blood Moon and not the others?"

"Does that fucking bastard really need to have reason to try get Raiza's soul?" I asked with a sarcastic tone. "It always has been a mere competition to him. Zayn wanted Raiza's soul when I had already claimed her."
