Love After Death. (Completed)

Chapter 17*

LIBBY

I was in a candy store. It looked like it had been redone. The walls were lined with shelves of colorful treats. The bright purple wallpaper was almost cheerful.

There was a staircase closed off behind the counter leading to an upper apartment.
"Why did you bring me here?" I asked.

"Dramatics demon, dramatics." The angel smirked.

"What is your name and your business with Undertaker?" I asked balling my hands into fists.

"Undertaker? Ah you mean Adrian." He grinned.

Adrian. That was Undertaker's real name. It suits him.

I shook my head. Now was not the time to be day dreaming.

"He hasn't mentioned me before?" The angel asked. I didn't answer.

"I am Michael the angel of cleansing. My sister Annette was the angel of purification. Together we could have cleansed this putrid world of all sins." His violet eyes stared off into the distance.

Growing annoyed I cleared my throat.

"How do you know Undertaker?" I spoke through my teeth.

"Adrian discovered a way to reanimate corpses using the hearts and brains of people. With his knowledge we could have had a new beginning. A new era for a new species. He was a fool. He turned us away.
That shinigami has no value for life. He doesn't understand what could have been. Shinigami and demons don't understand what it is we are trying to achieve." Michael droned on and on. The more he talked the angrier I became.

How dare he talk ill of Undertaker. Speaking as though he was superior to him and me.

"I have heard enough." I shouted standing to my feet. I stood before the angel. I could feel my aura changing as my temper flared.

I had seen this before.
Sebastian.
Grell called it demon-ing. Is that what this is?

I looked around me noticing a red tinged cloud start to surround me.

"You are going to step aside and let me return. I can maybe spare your life if you leave Undertaker alone." I narrowed my eyes as he smirked.

"What can a half mortal half demon really do?" He snickered.

What?

"I have been watching you since you became contracted to Adrian. You're too human to protect him and he knows it.
Even that wretched demon had to protect you. You are pathetic.
You will be the first doll in the new and improved world. A pretty face is nothing to waste after all." He grinned deviously reaching for me.

I slapped his hand away.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" I yelled . Tears welled in my eyes.

"I am a demon!" I shouted.

Images of my life flashed before my eyes. Undertaker catching me as I lost my footing on a ladder. My emotions getting the best of me when he slept with another woman. Him watching me defeat the doll in amusement. Undertaker defending me from the shinigami. Sebastian and Undertaker whispering. Sebastian protecting me from the tower.

My mouth popped open as I realised he wasn't lying. There was something different about me. I was weak for a demon. I could eat and sleep as much as I wanted to. I got cold and warm. I had strong feelings and emotions.

Images of my mother interrupted my revelation. She hated me. The very sight of me would drive her to violence.

My father, he didn't die and become a demon for vengance. He-he was already a demon.
