Demon |Book 1 (Editing in progress)

Chapter 33

Location: Heaven

Avel's POV

I can't take it. This place... it's boring. All they do all day is sing and praise God... yes my mother is here, but she has no interest in speaking to me. I don't really understand why... yeah I murdered her, but it was for a good reason. I used to feel guilty about it... but no longer.

For days I've been asking God to consider sending me back to the surface. He laughs in my face, tells me that I've caused enough destruction on the earth. That I should be grateful for being here in the first place... That I should be thanking Ariel. I wouldn't thank that man for a SECOND. He's the reason why I died... He watched me die. I bet the tears he shed were fake... He's not my father. He never will be.

I was on my way to visit God once more. I was going to get out of here one way or another... I had to keep trying. I've done many things in my life... leaving heaven will be one of the easiest. I'll make sure of it.

I stood in front of his throne. He immediately let out a deep sigh, gazing at me with a soft smile on his lips.

''What could I do for you, Avel?'' God asked me. I couldn't help but roll my eyes... he knew what I was here for. What else would I want? To sing him a bible verse?

''I want to leave. Now.'' I demanded. He let out a deep sigh, shaking his head at me once more.

He rose from his throne, gazing down at me with a look of amusement in his eyes. He was looking at me like I was a child... I didn't like it. I'm a prince... I'm the son of one of the eldest angels. Though I don't particularly like him at the moment... I am royalty.

''I'll make you a deal, Avel Argyros,'' God said to me, stepping down from his throne. A deal... with me? He has to be kidding.

''Mm, I could read your thoughts, you know. I did create you in my image... did I not?'' He asked me, walking away from me. He raised his hand, motioning for me to follow him.

He did create me in his image... but I didn't follow it. If I wasn't Nephilim, I would be in hell right now... probably in the fields of punishment.

''It's useless to think to yourself... as I said, I could hear everything, Avel.'' He said with a smile.

''Cut to the chase. What's your deal you're speaking of?'' I asked him. He instantly shook his head disapprovingly.

''Good things come to those who are patient.'' He told me.

''Patience wastes time. I say take things when you want them. I deserve what I want.'' I snapped, my voice growing louder with every word. All he did was smile at me...

He's patient.

''Here is my deal, child. I will allow you to return to the surface on a few conditions.'' He said to me. This could be my chance... I could go back to the surface, I could defeat Seth... I don't know how, but I will-

''You aren't listening to me, child...'' He murmured. I couldn't help but roll my eyes...
