Power in Death: Book 1 of The Destiny in Death Series

Lucifer and Gabriel

After the bitch gets off the phone she just stares us down in silence. I'm struggling to keep on processing the radical changes in my life. The clock on the wall tick tocks, it's the only sound in the room. I look at it curious of the time, 3:15pm it read. I look to the twins and the tense set of their shoulders says it all. The new guest coming is someone the twins must fear and hate, I can see it in their frowns and hear it in their irregular breathing. 

After maybe a few minutes of waiting a screech suddenly bursts out of my throat as a man dressed in brilliant white suite stares at me. He looks like the slightly older version of the soulless angelic boy. God I need to find out the rest of these guys names. He appeared out of thin air, lightning flashed up from the floor and then he was there with a rigid posture and glowing silver eyes. He turned to look at the bitch before walking to the other side of the room where the window sat to perch on the ledge. He nodded his head at the angelic soulless guy and sat in silence. This guy gives me weird vibes. I can tell he's powerful. I don't know how but I can sense it. I then see black tar bubbling from the ground. A figure shrouded in darkness rises from the ground. The darkness is there one minute but gets dropped like a cloak in the next instant.

Black hair, green eyes, a neat beard and donning a black suite with a red tie. He's obviously the twins farther, my gut twists at the thought. So the devil himself Lucifer is in the same room as me, my hands nervously wiggle in front of me whilst I watch him prowl up to the bitch. He leans in and kisses her so deeply and intimately I blush and look away. Hot damn, I feel like a virgin right now compared to them two. 

He released the bitch from his mouth after literally seven minutes of us all staring and smirks at her. The white suite man sighs impaitiently. I'm getting vibes about Lucifer. One that tell me he is a total arsehole and secondly he is also powerful. It causes my hairs to sit on edge. My mind starts to wander again, which is something that's second nature to me with all my time in solitude. The devil is an arsehole would be a pretty could book title. Not the time Alex or the place to be thinking that but I can't help my self. I think it's catchy with a certain ring to it. Only issue is that would probably be comedy book, where as my situation is not all that funny.  Lucifer turns to us and I freeze whilst my mind snaps back to focus. The twins get even more stiffer on each side of me and I'm pretty sure they have moved closer to me too and I can feel a hot breath on the back of my neck so I know the others have moved closer without even turning to look. 

"My love tells me how naughty my boys have been and how terribly disgusting their new friend is," he says whilst surveying the twins and moving his eyes to roam over to me. My stomach clenches whilst he looks me up and down and fear prickles the back of my neck. I mean I don't regret backhanding the bitch but I'm starting to now, slightly. Okay I honestly don't regret it but I wish I did which must count for something, right? 

"What are you? He asks whilst tilting his head to the side. I'm scared shitless and words aren't working so I shrug. The white suite guy also comes round to stare at me, much closer than Lucifer is. I hear the growls around me pick up. Bloody hell those growls are too hot for there own god damn good! He continues to stare at me. Turns to Lucifer and says, "I got no idea Luce." whilst shrugging. Hm, I expected him to sound rougher and more ancient for some reason. "Thanks for checking Gabriel and sorry our hunting got interrupted. We will reschedule," Lucifer says to the man. Gabriel inclines his head and says, "I will need to report her to God so I will take my leave, update me if anything progresses." Just like that he vanished into a lightning strike with one last look at the soulless angelic boy. He must be his older brother or maybe Farther seen as no one I've seen so far is old. 

Wait God? He said God right? Then it clicks. He's called Gabriel, the archangel Gabriel. I know I'd be hyperventilating if I could. So is the Devil and the Archangel chummy? File it away Alex, just file it away. I swallow loudly and almost rip my own fingers off with how nervously I'm twiddling them.

The bitch pipes up with her nose swinging in the air, "I don't care what she is, we should just get rid of her, somethings not right about her".

 "No." Lucifer strongly says, bitches' eyes widen but she keeps her mouth shut tight. Lucifer steps up to me and the twins step into me on each side to get even closer. I'm literally sandwiched now, tingles still manage to overtake where they touch me even in this daunting situation. He smirks at us and stops in front of me. "You will stay here until we further investigate your abilities and kind, if you do not co-operate, I will destroy everything you care about." He says this like he's reading  the newspaper aloud. In a bored and monotone voice. I gasp registering how capable he is of keeping his threat. "What do you care about most dearly?" He asks me in a hushed voice leaning in further. I don't move other than the trembles that work their way around my body, I don't dare say a thing. He moves his eyes over to his sons whilst straightening his back. "Do not think of getting in my way again sons, you are already going to be punished for your transgressions from the past few months"

I look over to the bitch and some of the smugness has come back onto her face. I hate her, I really hate her. My rage stirs again but I need to keep it contained, it will only get me killed right now. "We need to separate her from the rest of the students honey including your sons at the very least. They seem to get more defiant being near this wench. Why don't we throw her in the basement?" Her smirk twists around her red lips. Both of the twins lips contort further into an angry slash in response to her words. Lucifer speaks up and gets the attention of the room again. "Nonsense Lucinda, she will attend the academy as a normal student. We will see and we find out what she is. I trust all of you will keep an eye on her and report anything to me." He is a straight forward type of guy I will give him that. He literally just made my only half decent encounters with the boys shake. They'd be my spies now, is pretty much what he is implying. 

I look up at the twins and see the anger contorting their faces, I briefly glance behind me and notice they all wear the same expression other than the soulless angelic boy. I don't know why but it want to be able to trust these guys, but I know I can't now. I know that even though they may not want to say anything, they probably won't have a choice. My heart aches, I feel connected to this strange group but I need to be strong. I need to be on guard.

Lucifer turns to his sons and the other boys, "follow me for a chat" The tension in the room reaches an all time high but the command in Lucifers voice leaves no room for discussion. When they exit the room with a few worried looks thrown over there should at me, I'm left alone with the bitch. Yay me. "Be smart, you might be strong but from what you've said you died right? Your family's mortal I presume?" Gone is he whiney voice now Lucifer is gone. She gages my reaction which is a frown and smirks. "If you don't want them dead listen to me in future. If it was up to me you already would dead and I'd kill your family for the fun of it." she flashes me an evil grin. I'm not afraid of her, I know I could take her but I'm afraid for my family. 

A second after she said that Lucifer pops back in and says, "I went over some ground rules with the boys, Alexandrea is it?" He asks and I dumbly nod. He smirks and says, "be on your best behaviour and welcome to the Thorn Academy for the Supernatural." before exiting the room again with a kiss blown toward the bitch. Gag. 

"Can I not just leave?" I ask the bitch going out on a whim. She laughs and says, "unfortunately for you, you have peaked my Husbands interest." Although she was laughing I can tell she is just as unimpressed about that statement as I am. I can't wait to just have a few moments to my self to figure out a plan. I need to get out of here. The only reason I was some what okay with coming here was for answers but it's just made me more confused than ever. I need to go home and convince my family to move somewhere more hidden. Can you even hide from the devil though?
