The Archangel

King of Heaven doesn't like rebels

He is fearless,

He is a rebel,

There is a reason inside,

No one could tell.

"I want the first rankers to assemble at dawn and wait for my signal." King ordered.

"Yes Sire." His commanding general said.

"And send in the best warrior to the turret, to keep the eye at a distant."

"Yes Sir."

"And where is Alexander?" King bellowed and the soldiers around him cringed.

"Sir, we don't know. But Adonael says he has been practicing daily."

"He doesn't need practice, he needs to be present at the battle." King said angrily.

"I'll make sure of that." General said.

"He doesn't even behave like an angel, so irresponsible and uncaring." Tiredness seeped in King's tone.

"He will learn soon Sir, it's his throne to take and he will learn to bear the responsibility of crown." The General said.

King didn't respond to it and dismissed the general.

Though Alexander was not his own, he still loved him like his own child. Whenever he saw him, it was a cruel reminded how his present wife used to love someone else. He was one unlucky angel in love, his one and only was a angel who loved a demon. But it didn't matter to an angel once they fall in love. It was like an obsession one cannot give up.

He had an elder son, Haylien who was very much a King material but Elites didn't know the half lineage of Alexander , they wanted him to take the throne. He even wanted that himself, Alexander was really powerful. King has never seen someone so powerful in his life. Even Alexander's aura was filled with power.

Everyone could feel his power, even the Elites and the warriors around.

But the worst part of the situation was Haylien didn't want the throne himself.

Alexander hadn't shown any demonic traits besides being lethally powerful and he loved his mother so it was still safe. But the rebellious streak, love for playing with feelings, no care for the world behaviour was not so angelic.

It is said that Love changes people so King just hopped that Alexander found someone that could bring out the angel in him.

"Father you called for me?" Haylien entered the room.

"Where is your brother, I asked you to keep an eye on him."

"Father, Alicia is with him now. He likes her more than me, you know." Haylien tried to say it coldly but the sadness was evident in his tone.

"Tell him to atleast show his face in the battle, people expects him to show up."

Haylien nodded .

"I want to see all three of you for gathering this evening." King said in a stern tone.

"Yes, your highness." Haylien said curtly and left.

****

The time was ticking and all of the royals waited for Alexander to show up. King was burning with rage and others around him were nervous because of his rising temper.

Almost an hour late Alexander walked in with a pretty angel on his arm. Queen sighed and pinched the tip of her nose in an attempt to calm herself. Alicia was grinning while looking down, Haylien ignored the fiasco now brewing in front of them and the King glared at Alexander.

Alexander completely ignored everyone reaction and sat down on the empty seat next to Queen.

"Mother, father, this is Meresina." He introduced the angel with him.

She bowed gracefully and smiled.

Queen returned the smile but the King ignored her and continued glaring his son.

"ALEXANDER, I am your king and you will respect my command." King yelled full of rage.

"And the respect brought me here Father. I interrupted my date to be here." He said flatly.

He sat down and ignored the fuming Father.

All through the gathering he chatted animatedly with Alicia, his mother and Meresina. Meresina was partially terrified and partially smitten by Alexander as she tentatively kept glancing in multiple directions.

King slammed his hand on the table and the silver cutlery rattled silencing everyone on the table. He didn't say a word and stormed off filled with anger.

A smile crept on Alexander's face, he was successful, again!

His father ignored him, treated him like ...like a mere human. So only thing to get his attention was doing all these things. He loved being a rebel, enjoyed missing practices, terrifying the minor angels, ignore the human related tasks given to him and breaking almost all the rules his father created!

But it seemed like King of Heaven didn't like rebels.

"Why do you keep doing that Xander?" His mother said pain etched on her face.

Alexander softened at her look, he hated hurting her.

"Once he starts loving me, I will stop doing this."

"He loves you, I know that."

"He has a weird way of showing it by ignoring me."

"We are having an archery bet, care to join brother?" Alicia said trying to save him motherly lecture.

He mouthed thank you and grinned at her.

"Of course, I always enjoy winning no matter how many times I do it!" He said arrogantly.

They left together, while Alicia bowed to Haylien and smiled at him the two brothers totally ignored each other.

Angels families were as complicated as human families were.

I don't always think we should be rebels but there is fun in that too! What do you guys think? Nevertheless, it just made Xander sexier!

Keep VOTING guys!
