I brushed my hair and looked at the mirror as I sat down inside my room. It was late at night yet I couldn't sleep. There was something wrong with my mind and I know that it involved a certain demon. He's invading my thoughts after what happened earlier yet I don't know what to do about it. I don't even have someone to talk to about it. Of course I couldn't tell Jophiel and ask for advice because she will probably be mad at me if she knew about this. Especially because it was Lucifer I was talking about.
I then placed the hair brush on the table with a sigh, not knowing what to do. I then stood up from my seat and then threw my body on the bed in hopes of ever being fine and having Lucifer-free thoughts.
What was wrong with him? Why did he even do that? To scare me? I don't have a single clue what his intentions are, but I was sure that there was something wrong with that.
I could have asked Samyaza about it, but he wasn't a girl and of course, I don't know how to tell him. He probably will tease me endlessly about it and end up not telling anything to me that sounds helpful.
"God, this is so frustrating. I never signed up for this," I said, and I heard a chuckle beside me.
I widened my eyes and saw Azrael sitting next to me on my bed, with a smirk across his face. I then stood up immediately and pointed my finger at him.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked, and he laughed.
"You look scared. What happened to you?" He asked, and I pouted.
"No one allowed you to go in!" I said, making him chuckle.
"I was just curious," he started, "where do you go whenever we are gone?"
I then gulped, imagining what happened earlier. He can't know that. What if he reads my mind?
I don't wanna break Lucifer's trust. He trusted me with his secret, with his side of the realm, with his identity. I can't just fail him.
He then raised a brow at me and slowly approached me, making me step back a bit. He kept going towards me, and I kept going backwards. I was nervous.
I was nervous because he looked like he was trying to read my mind. It was as if he wanted to know what I am doing, because it concerned him.
But he will be mad at me if he knew. He will be mad at me if he found out that I was talking and making friends with the other side.
Will he hate me? Will he hate me and tell the other archangels about me? Will they all hate me, too?
He then held my shoulders and looked down once I hit the wall. He was breathing in deeply, and then sighed.
"I know, Kassandra. You don't have to hide it from me. Because I'm your best friend here, it hurts me seeing you lie to me. You don't have to, anymore. But why? Why, of all creatures, did you go to Lucifer?" He whispered, and I felt my tears drop to the floor.
"I'm sorry, Az. I'm sorry. I just got there for some reason and I became friends with him. He regrets everything he did, Az. He does," I explained for Lucifer, and then he sighed.
"He's the devil, Kassandra. The Devil. It is his forte, deceiving. Just... please take care. And don't ever tell him if you meet the chosen nephilim," he said, and I tilted my head in confusion.
What was he talking about?
"I'm guessing you don't get what I am saying? Fine. I'll explain. There's a prophecy about a chosen nephilim who will set Lucifer free and give him the freedom to destroy the Realm once again. Just a single drop of that nephilim will bring back every power he had when he was an archangel as well as when he was the devil. But the chosen nephilim will also be the devil's weakness. They will be the one who will become the devil's soft side, the one who will be able to make him feel emotions. But once the devil cries, once a single drop of his tear grazes the ground, all will be in ruins. The realm will be drenched in fire and chaos, whether Lucifer likes it or not." Said Azrael, and I widened my eyes.
"But don't ever tell the others that I already told you about this. They will kill me. We aren't sure yet about what kind of creature you are and why you appeared in the realm." He added, so I nodded at him.
I sighed, and then looked up.
Azrael is always like this to me. He always helps me in some situations that I think I will never be able to escape. He knows that I can sometimes manipulate things, too, but he never revealed that to the others. And now he knows that I am friends with the devil, I'm glad to have him because I know that I can trust him.
Of course, I won't tell Jophiel and the others that he already told me about these things.
"But how can we know the reason why I am here? I mean, I'm curious, and even me myself don't fucking know why I exist in this realm," I said, and he chuckled.
"Still foul mouthed as usual. I thought you were slowly losing that foul mouth, I thought wrong," he said, making us both chuckle.
"But how?" I asked, and he sighed.
He then led me back to the bed, so I sat down next to him. He looked up to the ceiling so I did the same, for some reason. He then clicked his tongue, and then closed his eyes.
"We're going to a shaman tomorrow. The one near the forbidden forest," he said, breathing his words out.
I then widened my eyes. He slowly nodded, so I blinked rapidly.
"Who's coming with us?" I asked, and he shrugged his shoulders.
"Just us. Or Jophiel and Michael will kill me," he said, and I slowly nodded.
He then stood up, so I furrowed my brows.
He started walking towards the door, so I guessed he was gonna get out of my room now.
"Please make wise decisions and come with me tomorrow to the Shaman," he said, and I nodded.
He gave me a smile, and that was the last thing I saw before he disappeared into a smoke.
Lucifer. I'm sorry.
