It was...my father. My demon father. Lucifer.

"Wait, I thought you were dead?" I question. I step back a few steps, taking everything in.

"I was, am. However, you have a gift of many. A gift to astral project here." He says, stepping closer to me.

"What?" I ask, unconsciously tilting my head to the side.

"You can astral project yourself anywhere, and you chose here. I guess you wanted some answers, so your self-conscious called me here. I'm still gone, however my spirit lives. I'll do anything to protect my baby. Even in the afterlife." He says, stepping close enough to where I am able to wrap my arms around him and sob.

"It was you wasn't it? You were the one who always held me at night whenever I had nightmares? The one who always wiped my tears whenever I felt alone? It was you? Why? You're a demon. Shouldn't you be relishing in my pain?" I ask, looking up at him.

"Just because I'm the most ultimate demon there is, doesn't mean I don't have a heart. I helped give life to you because I love you. Not because I want to cause you any harm. Yes, when the Natives made the spell that created you, all I felt was hunger for pain. However, when you were born, I fell in love with your spirit and soul. Being half demon, half angel, plus part witch somewhere in the mix, you still have the kindest heart. You taught my cold, dead heart how to beat again. And that's why I want to help you. I want to help you escape those 4 creatures before they destroy you forever." After his statement, he steps back and looks me in the eye.

"We will bring justice for your family. We will. And we'll awaken your abilities as well. I have to go now, but just remember, I'm always here. In your heart." He states, touching my heart. He then starts to walk away.

"Wait! Who's my mother and what do you mean I'm part witch?!" I yell, trying to reach him. He soon disappears.

"All answers will be revealed to you when it's time."

Soon, I'm falling into that dark abyss again. Waking up, I notice I'm still in the chair tied up.

"Look who woke up. Good morning sleepyhead!" Grayson taunts. All 4 of them stand in front of me, while my family is in the same dead condition. I then notice a gag and blindfold in Grayson's hands. While, in Tabitha and Leila's hands, they hold...sex toys? Oh no. Dominic's hands are empty however.

"Let's get down to business shall we? It's time we have some fun." After he says this, they all start to strip down, except for Dom.

Someone please save me.

So here's the chapter. Sorry for it being late. I'm graduating in 3 weeks, so I'm getting everything together.

What do you think will happen next?
