Consequences of Sin

Chapter Fifteen

    I wake up groggily, with a pounding headache. Ugh, not this shit again. Must be from staying up so late, plus all the late night sex session with Sebastian. Jeez, he can go for hours. I hear a knock at my door, and I wince. It's going to be one of those days, just great.

    "Can I can come in, Carmen?" asks Caleb from the other side of the door.

    "Of course, Caleb. Come in, just talk quietly. My head is killing me." I say to him, while my fingers are currently rubbing my temples. As if I could possibly rub away the headache, I wished. Caleb comes in, and sits down on my bed. He has a serious look on his face, but also looks very concerned. Oh no, he must have spoke with God, and the news he's gotten must not be good. Shit.

    "I know why you have a headache, Car. I've spoke with God about all of this. Want to know what he said?" he asks quietly, still a mask of concern, worry, and seriousness on his face.

    "Yes, please. What did God say? What do you mean you know why I have a headache, I don't understand?" I asked perplexed. It's a headache from exhaustion, both physically and mentally, I'm sure.

    "Okay, so, I told God about your situation dealing with Sebastian. At first, he thought maybe you two were soul mates." Caleb is staring into my eyes, analyzing every emotion that travels across my face. Which is shocked horror. No way, not even possible, but.... I feel as if I need him in order to be complete.

    "No, there's no way. I can't, won't, have a soul mate. I'm not letting someone else dictate who I'm to spend my life with. That won't happen. I'll request a new security team leader, if that's the case." I whisper, as panic starts to slowly take over me. I cannot do this, just no.

    "Slow down those racing thoughts, Car. I said, he thought that's what it was, at first. It isn't. I told him about the headaches, as well as all the other things that I'm able to pick up on as your guardian angel. God's very concerned. He said this seems to be a compulsion spell. A dark compulsion spell. The person that is controlling this, is very strong with dark powers." Caleb pauses here, to let me collect and assess this information he just told me.

   "I don't understand, how would this be possible? We're in God's safe house, we have a security team made of angels chosen by God himself. No one is able to enter onto this property, unless they're of angel blood. Thanks to the spell you put on my mind, Lucifer can't even reach me mentally. I don't understand." My mind is lost, trying to come up with ideas, and lacking.

    "Yes, but Car, there is one thing evil here, inside this property with us." he whispers while pointing towards my belly where the intruder is. I'm about thirteen weeks now, or so. Oh my God, how could I have forgotten? This little intruder is wickedly evil, and already able to use his dark powers? Whaaat?!

    "I'm a little over thirteen weeks pregnant. Are you saying this, baby of Satan, is already able to use his dark powers?! How is that possible?" I am shocked, thoroughly stunned by this news. I remember God saying he was evil, but jeez, this is next level shit.

    "Carmen, this an issue that is faced every time Lucifer impregnates someone. This is a possibility that is always there. It's something we have to watch closely. None of Lucifer's other children, have ever been able to produce this much dark power, while in the womb. Especially, not this early into the pregnancy. God is concerned about what this means, for you, us, the war to come."

    I am just in shocked silence. I don't know what to think, or feel. To be told that I am pregnant with my father's most powerful child, is frightening.

    "Caleb, can we just cut the intruder out, c-section style. I cannot keep having this happen. Just a question though, why is he doing this with Sebastian? I don't understand. Is he doing the compulsion on Sebastian as well?"
