Part One

    Shock was an understatement. I was rooted to the spot, unable to move. Angels. I couldn't breathe. My biological parents were Angels and the person I felt something so strongly for was a Devil? How very convenient. I wanted to know more. I had to know more. This knowledge was way too overdue.

“Tell me more” I spoke, and even though I couldn’t feel blood rushing up my neck any longer, I couldn’t feel ill now.

Leviathan hesitated. He looked toward his brothers, and they returned his uneasy gaze. They spoke through their facial expressions, and somehow, I easily caught on.

“You won’t tell me, will you?” it hardly sounded like a question coming from my lips, my fingers shook despite the warm breeze. I had to know “You won’t tell me what really happened? How they happened?”

“Asmodeus is one of the few who know what actually did happen. We know only parts of it. Believe us, Devany, we would tell you if we knew” explained Satan

“You say few other people besides Asmodeus knows,” I stated “who are they?”

“I didn’t say they were people, Devany” Leviathan murmured gently

I nodded, patience slipping from me, so it was hopeless. “Right. Well thanks. I’m going to class”

I turned, but before I could step forward, the off feeling was back again. I inhaled sharply, my hand going to my chest. What was this?

“So you feel it too, huh?” Mammon’s voice interrupted my thoughts “Next time you feel that, Devany, don’t ever look into the person’s eyes. Please,”

The last word held a pleading tone. I turned my head to look at the four from over my shoulder. They stood there, concern on their faces. What were they hiding from me? What was I missing here? I turned my gaze back in front of me and walked on.

In class, I could definitely feel eyes focused on the back of my head. I kept repeating Paranoia in my thoughts, just to try and flush out the feeling of being watched, but it felt useless. I didn’t want to look behind me; Mammon’s words seemed to imprint themselves into my mind.

Exasperated and utterly exhausted with all the past events, I ran a hand through my hair, expelling a long drag of breath. I wanted to scream, kick, and just throw a tantrum. I inhaled, deep. Trying to relax myself seemed almost like a vain attempt, but I had to try. I mentally had so much a mess to sort out.

First, that Lena and Leo weren’t my real parents. That I could deal with. Lloyd and Leslie weren’t my biological siblings. Okay. Devils exist. Deep breath. Yes, they do. Hell isn’t just a deep pit of fire. Okay. I’ve been there before. Alright. Deep breath. Asmodeus, the devil of lust took my virginity. Yes, that was true.

I couldn’t help remembering how he inched inside of me; very, very slowly. The only time I ever felt all of such strong emotions from him burst into me all at once. It was… magical. A strong connection. Something unbreakable was there.
