The Devils Son: Afterlife

4. The Note

"What do you mean who?! the psychopath you let control your whole life" he says staring at me like I should already know what he's talking about. "Your fucking kidding, the literal devils son" he says shocked. "you married him?!" He finally yells.

  "What?" Is all I could manage to say, I'm beyond confused

  "Why don't you know what I'm talking about?" He says with frustration clear in his voice

  "Chris I don't know what you talking about either" mom finally cuts in, looking just as confused as me

  "Your actually pulling my leg right now, the guy manipulated you with his fucking mind tricks for like 70 years, he brought you back from the fucking dead, he was literally Satan's span, he attacked me, how do you not remember any of this???" He says really trying to break through with me but I still don't know what he's talking about.

  "I married the devils son?" I say sick to my stomach, why would I do that?!? The devil has a son?!

  "He manipulated you to marry him, he was obsessed with you, he brought you to see me and he threatened and attacked me, I never trusted him. I've always hated that guy but you would never leave his side, he had you convinced you where in love with him. Honestly the more I think about it the more it makes sense you don't remember, why would god torture you with the memory of him"

  "No I don't think so, I would've seen him" mom speaks up

  "You didn't?" He looks at her confused

  "No, Charolette never married, she was alone" she says confused

  "They never told me I was ever married when I arrived?" I say still in shock, I honestly can't tell if Chris is lying.

  "Think about it, you have wings! Why would they just give them to you? It's because you put up with an evil like him for almost your entire existence, of course they rewarded you, your free now" he says as if it's obvious.

  I guess that makes sense? Why wouldn't they tell me this though? Why is this the first time I'm hearing about this?

  "What was his name?" I ask while retracting my wings.

  "God... um.... fuck I can't remember" he says trying to think of it.

  "Well it's not like that matters now, he can't manipulate you anymore, you're an angel and he's god only knows where, hopefully dead" Chris says relieved

  "Well.... I have to get back and sleep, I start training tomorrow but I'll find you again and we can talk then" I say hugging my mom and Chris goodbye "Try and remember his name" I yell back to Chris before I leave. I honestly could've stayed but I really just need some space and a moment to try and understand what he just said.

   Once the ground starts to appear and I'm walking back Into the camp my mind starts to race thinking about all this new information. Why would god not protect me from him? What did Chris mean by brought me back from the dead? 

   I walk through the dark cabin as everyone sleeps and hurry to my cot. I quickly get under the covers when suddenly a huge wave of emotion hits me and I start crying my eyes out. I don't know why in particular but the thought of this evil creature manipulating me for so long and the fact that I can't even remember any of it starts to really set in.

  "Get up" I hear someone say to me, waking me from my sleep. I open my eyes to Amy standing over me waiting for me to get up.

"I'm up" I say as I crawl out from under the covers.

"Well let's go" she says walking away from my cot, expecting me to follow.
