My Guardian Demon

Chapter 25: The real reason.

My Guardian Demon

Marax's Pov.

We all walked into the front room taking a seat on the couch, I decided to stay stood up looking at the two of them who were sitting next to each other holding hands. Well, isn't this adorable?

This is going to kill Zirach when he finds out Satan's real reason as to why he wants Athena so badly, we all had our suspicions but neither of us would have guessed this. I stood straight watching them both, Athena looked exhausted.

She had a dark bruise forming on the side of her head which looked quite sore.

"Are you going to spit it out anytime soon, or do I have to beat it out of you?" Zac grumbled, his tone rough but playful, earning a sharp pinch from Athena. I couldn't help but chuckle—I could see why he loved this girl.

I understood why he might be pissed off; after all, I'd just interrupted his alone time with Athena. But this... this was important. And I wasn't about to let anything distract me from getting the answers I needed.

"No need to get violent," I said, flashing a smug grin. "Even though I'd definitely kick your arse."

The words were barely out of my mouth before I realized my mistake. Zac raised an amused brow, but it was Athena's reaction that made my stomach drop. Her eyes narrowed dangerously, and before I could backtrack, she launched her bowl of food at me.

Yes her bowl of food, god damn she's crazy. I yelped and dodged out of the way as the bowl smashed into pieces against the wall.

Zac was smiling away and Athena just shrugged as she sat back against the couch, crossing her arms and throwing her legs over his.

"You've got a crazy one," I pointed out, gesturing toward Athena. Zac just smirked, giving me a wink that screamed you have no idea.

"The crazy ones," Athena interjected, nudging him playfully in the side, "are always better in bed."

Zac let out a low chuckle, clearly enjoying her boldness, while I groaned and rolled my eyes. "Good to know," I muttered, trying to fight off the heat rising to my cheeks.

Now I'm hard.

Athena stuck her tongue out but he managed to grab it.

"I'll bite that tongue if you do that again," He purred as he edged closer to her now bright red face.

I coughed loudly, cutting through the tension like a knife. "Alright, that's enough. This is getting way too sexual, and I'd rather not witness it unless I'm somehow involved."

Zac and Athena froze for a second, exchanging a glance before bursting into laughter. I rolled my eyes but pressed on, determined. "Seriously, focus. I've just discovered something important, and you're going to want to hear this."

That seemed to do the trick; they both leaned forward, their expressions suddenly serious and ready to listen.

"Well I overheard Satan and his little minions speaking and me being me I had to eavesdrop, I didn't really have anything else better to do because you had decided to spend the night with our lovely Athena over here which I'm really sorry about interrupting but..."

"Will you just get on with it," Zac snapped. I raised my arms in defence.

"Anyway, well Satan doesn't just want her to be on our side so we have a better chance of winning but he also wants to marry her."

"He wants to what?" We all turned our heads to see both of her brothers standing at the door with very angry faces. Hmm, when did they appear?

They both walked in and stood there with arms crossed waiting for me to carry on, I could already see Zac's eyes turn a shade darker which isn't good.
