Of Angel Descent

Chapter Ten

When I get to my house no one is home so I immediately message my dad telling him to get home that we need to talk. He of course responds right away informing me he'll be home in an hour so I start calling Eva and Curtis. When Eva doesn't answer I call Curtis' phone. No answer.

"Damn-it." I start pacing back and forth in my living room as Michael sits calmly on the couch watching me. I try calling Curtis again. No answer. "Damn-it!" I shout, "He always answers me!"

"Nilea, honey relax."

"Relax? You're kidding right? You want me to relax, we just found out that Andrew is alive and you want me to relax?" I shout at him. Michael sighs and stays quiet. I try calling Eva again and when it reaches her voicemail I am so mad I just scream as I leave a message. "Evagaline! Answer your god-damned phone! I need you and Curtis to dad's house as soon as fucking possible! So get Curtis' dick out of you and get here now!" I furiously hang up and throw my phone at the couch muttering to myself. "Fucking ridiculous. She gets pissed and threatens me every time I don't answer her phone calls but when it comes to her answering me does she care? No!"

"Nilea, you are getting so mad that I am being affected by it. Please relax."

I glare at him, if looks could kill. "I am not going to relax. Andrew is alive and wants me to get ahold of a rogue fucking Vampire and my stupid ass sister thinks sex is more important than answering her motherfucking phone!" With every word I get angrier causing my wings to lose the transparency charm. They start to unravel glowing with this pristine silver and a faint white. I breathe heavily in anger as I watch Michael warily stand up walking towards me. I look into his eyes as his feelings course into my body as he tries to calm me from a distance. Every feeling Michael is experiencing I can feel; awe, terror, love.

"Nilea," Michael reaches out to me gently saying my name, "Just calm down honey." He motions for me to go to him rather than him coming to me. I feel my anger slowly disappear as if water was pushing it away. My wings slowly fold back behind me regaining the transparency charm. I walk into Michael's open arms and become completely calm the moment he tightens his arms around me. I close my eyes forgetting that every action of love that we create internally destroys Andy. Within a minute my phone is ringing playing the ringtone I set for Eva. I break out of Michael's arms and scoop up my phone. "Be nice." Michael warns me. Yeah right. I answer the call regaining all my anger.

"About time you finally decide I might have some urgent news!" I shout at my sister through my phone. Her perky voice replies back with mild irritation.

"Whatever news you have is not nearly important as Curtis proposing!" she squeals excitedly giggling.

"Oh sissy!" I fake squeal with her in sarcasm pretending to be excited for her.

"I know, I am so lucky!" she responds clueless.

"As I was fucking saying." I change my voice back to pure anger, "Get the fuck over here right now! Or I will throw that stupid fucking engagement ring all the way to Timbuktu!" before she can respond I hang up on her pacing back and forth in the living room again.

"How convenient of Curtis to propose today." Michael remarks.

"No fucking kidding! He has had that damn ring for four months." I growl to myself still pacing. Moments later Michael is standing in front of me with his right arm wrapped around me and his left hand resting on the hilt of his sword as he faces the front door. Just as I am about to ask what he is doing Eva bursts in through the door glowing with anger. Her dark gray wings surrounding her like a dark cloud. She sees Michael standing in front of me and starts marching towards us.
