Despite it took them a while, the incubi with help from Diana managed to defeat the Angel although did not kill her (much to Sam's disappointment). Instead I summoned bindings that prevented the Angel of both using magic or escape. Before we left I called for father to keep the Angels off my tail would they investigate the source of the archangel magic before returning to the mansion. Mika seemed to be doing fine although was not discharged yet and as I promised when everything was over I rested up. Not that it was easy though. Nightmares plagued my mind of days long gone or more recent events. 

''Hey easy... easy...'' I heard James' voice after jolting awake with tears running over my face. I tried to calm my breathing and James pulled me in a hug. ''I heard you scream so I checked on you finding you tossing and turning. You are not doing well at all are you.'' James said. ''I just... need time to order my memories. I'll be fine in a few days.'' I said as I rested my head against his chest. I could hear his heartbeat which was a welcoming sound. ''Do you know that or hope for it.'' James asked and I did not answer. I indeed had no idea. James sighed and patted my hair. ''It was brave, what you did. Thank you for saving Mika so soon after getting your memories back.'' he said softly. ''I should have done this months ago.'' I muttered and James stopped patting my hair for a moment. ''Don't feel guilty. Everything turned out well in the end. I am curious however.'' he said and I looked at him. ''Who are your parents.'' James asked as he released me from his embrace. ''It's only fair that I tell you.'' I said and James sat down beside me. ''My mother... my actual birth mother was Lilith. My father, Samael. Archangel of death.'' I said with a smile. I looked at James and could see he took my words very seriously. ''After Lilith got banished to the Abyssal Plains, she performed a ritual to turn herself into a Succubus. She was unaware however that she was pregnant making me what I am today. I have a lot of magic power in me, most of it is raw magic, dangerous to use if II am not careful. The downside of what I am though is that it was best for me to stay in the shadows. I struck my name and existence along with that from Waltz from history.'' ''Why him as well.'' James asked. ''It will be found out sooner or later.'' I said with a chuckle. ''Waltz is my brother. Same mother and father. Only he prefers his Angel side over his demonside so relies on the latter a lot less.'' I said making James look at me surprised. ''You're... siblings?... you both are nothing alike.'' he said and I nodded in agreement. ''True. He looks more like Samael. I look more like my mother.'' I said and looked at James who smiled at me gently.

 ''I understand you a lot more now. Also why you did not say any of this sooner. Is it the reason Erik suddenly had started to call you Angel?'' James asked and I nodded. ''The Archmage gave me something that would make me lose control of my body. I fought against the drug's effects as well as I could and I pretended that the worst of the drug was over laughing it off making him leave. Soon however Erik had walked in and I lost control of my body and with that my glamour. He saw what I truly was and I had to enthrall him to forget. But the image actually stuck with him somewhere far away only he could not recall exactly what he saw. I was also not in the best state of mind to make him forget about what he saw in the first place. The moment he will see it again though the spell will wear off. Just like what happened with you and your brothers upon seeing me again.'' I admitted and looked away. ''What do you mean.'' James asked. ''When I fell at the attempt to escape with you and your brothers, I knew that the portal would not last long enough. I pushed Sam and Erik through with a wind spell. Despite it was through a portal I managed to enthrall you all and the man who helped us since you were all looking at me. Remember what I said there?'' I asked and James nodded. ''You told us to forget about you...'' he said and sighed. ''I'm sorry. I just couldn't risk that you would all come for me. I knew it was selfish but if you would've come back for me and gotten captured or worse I knew I just couldn't live with myself.'' I gulped and I felt James' hands on my shoulder before he rested his head on mine. ''Always you do things on your own. You do not have to anymore. If you need help, you can ask, no matter how big or small. You do not have to carry the weight of the worlds on your shoulders. At least not by yourself. Promise me.'' he said and I nodded. ''I will not try and do everything by myself anymore then.'' I said and James pressed a kiss on my head.
