Skyler-

"Hmm!" He winced and arched his back. "My wound will heal; I need you to look after Claire." Denny smacks his head.

"Claire is in great hands," Denny dabbed cotton against his wounds. "The witches will help her. But you, you need help too. I'm sure Claire wouldn't want you to worry about her."

"Why can't I call them?" Demitri asked for the sixth time.

"Do you want Saito to go ballistic?" It hurts. It hurts to know Claire has a soulmate. He found out a few days ago he spotted them together cuddling on a bench. That is why Claire has been so happy. "He will want to go to heaven and kill Claire's father. But he won't be able to; I broke the portals on my way out. It'll take a while to replace them."

"I can't believe her father did this to her," said Demitri, shaking his head. "By the way, who the fuck are you?"

Skyler chuckled. "Sorry, I suppose I forgot to introduce myself." He sighed. "My name is Skyler; I'm a demon that got captured when I was five. I'm Claire's birthday gift. I'm a slave to Claire's father. And I don't know anything about myself. I have no memories. I'm different. I don't know how I'm able to survive in heaven. But yeah, that's my story."

"That's rough," Demitri said. "You need to ask Luther for help."

Skyler smiled. "I will; after today, I have to. I won't let that bastard hurt Claire anymore."

"Oh," Demitri groaned. "Don't go there; you must get rid of the love you have for Claire. And I'm not talking about sibling love."

Skyler looks away. "I know."

Denny sighed. "Being in love with someone that you can't have, it's tough. I understand; I once had that problem. But then I met Jack."

Skyler winced. "I can't feel love."

"Eh?"

"Claire's father blocked that emotion; he says demons don't deserve to love," Skyler sighed. "I know what love is; I can sense it within me. But when I tried to show it, I felt empty."

"That's some level of torture," Demitri shook his head. "You have to talk to Luther."

Skyler gave a slight nod.

The two witches taking care of Claire came out of the bedroom. "Those are some serious wounds. What type of whip did that man use? Because flesh on her back is-burnt off."

"It's a lightning whip," Skyler grimaced in pain. "I don't know how he got his hands on it, but that whip belongs to Zeus. I'm slowly thinking Claire's father did something to Zeus."

"Is that even possible?" Jack asked. He had gone to shop for some clothes. He set the bags on the couch. "Can a low-rank angel harm a god?"

"He's a commander," Skyler said. "And I think at some point, he used to be an archangel. But he was demoted for some reason."

"Anyways," the leader of the coven spoke. "She's already healing, no scars. But she's still unconscious; also, does she have some form of, how should I put it, fidgeting? I mean, when she's nervous or anxious. Or just upset, does she pick at her skin?"

Skyler didn't want them to know about her self-harming. It's something the two of them have kept a secret. He supposes it's all right to tell them. They'll have to keep it a secret from Saito. "Yes, she self-harms. Since she was six, her father has mentally abused her. Sometimes, when she feels trapped or upset, she scratches her arms until they bleed. She says it's an itching feeling. The worse it got, she was plucking her feathers. I found her bleeding and feathers all over her room."
