This Love Only Brings You Pain (COMPLETED) ✓

Chapter Twenty Nine

"Rylan, I swear," Mary gritted through her teeth, shaking with anger. "If you killed that little boy, you're out. I don't care if we're your little eggs, you're out. Michael was who we always needed to save, doofus! What were you thinking?"

Rylan hung their head in shame. "I'm sorry. Forgive me. But I know the boy is alive. There was an ugly substance in his blood—some sort of disease, mixed with divinium—it almost killed me. But I was hungry, and he was there. But he's not dead, I promise."

"How can you be sure?" Otto spoke for the first time. "I agree with Mary, we can't trust your word. We need proof."

The shapeshifter hesitated. "I....I can't get you proof. If I were to summon him, he'd have to part demon. I don't know how to summon angels, or boys with weird DNA structures."

Mary groaned in irritation, tugging on her hair frustratedly. "Shit. What am I going to do? I promised to bring Michael back to Jillian. I promised."

"Hey," Otto swam towards her, placing his hands on her shoulders. "It's going to be okay, do you hear me? Once we get my cousin and her girlfriend back, you and I are going to save Michael. I promise."

There was a thick silence during which they both just gazed into one another's eyes, too afraid to look anywhere else in fear of giving too much away. The silence was broken by Mary's gruff reply.

"I'll hold you to that."

Michael's blood swirled and mixed with the millions of ancient blood patches in the sand, his mind foggy as he battled for his own life. The demon had come out of nowhere, eyes completely black with fury and fangs greedily sinking into his wrists. As far as he knew, they hadn't punctured anything vital, but he wasn't an expert.

Michael Salvius was only a child. A desperate, lonely, hungry child.

Plan C was in motion. Beatrice was still emotional about Ava's speech, not realising how much the brunette truly cared for her until that moment. It made Beatrice slightly less afraid. She was tempted to give her a quick peck on the cheek as reassurance that she had the same faith in Ava, but held herself in check. The halo bearer didn't need any further distractions.

At lightning speed, Ava phased into the front of the car, causing Jensen to yelp in surprise and swerve the car to the right. He was awkwardly trying to steer and reach for his gun, which was difficult with the radio blaring at max volume and a glowing orb of light blinding him.

This was what Beatrice had feared; having no control. She had no control over whether Ava lived or died in this scenario, whether a human being died in their hands, whether the brunette collapsed into temporary paralysis or a coma again. There was just no telling what would happen.

What she didn't expect though was for a ten tonne truck with the ArqTech logo embolized on the side to slam down on its brakes, heading straight for them. So she did the only logical thing inside of her head.

It would prove to be a reckless mistake, something she was becoming very good at these days.

*Hi. I'm going to start working on original work as well as this fanfiction. If you're bored, read the Gay Panic book for laughs lol. I'll be writing three books at the same time (this one, a bxb one and another girl x girl). Enjoy!!
