IV. FOUR
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

ZEKE HAS THE portal open downstairs. "Hurry!" He rushes me, I slip on my heels as I'm trying to find my hairpins. I open the cabinet under the sink, there's a small wooden box. I pull it out and when I open it, it's jewelry. A ruby necklace and a pearl one, they're absolutely beautiful and I question why he has jewelry. I'm assuming they're mine, I touch the ruby necklace. "Scarlet, for the love of-" I slam the box shut and shove it back into the cabinet.

I hurry downstairs. He yanks me through the portal, rushing through the darkness. The moment we see light seep from a cracked door, I hear a sneer. I turn and look but can't see anything, suddenly the light from the door blinds us.

I open my eyes, I'm in a room with a room full of people. There's women and men, they all sit gathered around a black marble table. "Hello." The man stands at the far end, his solid black hair and strong jaw intimidating and his solid black eyes matches Zeke's. "Please, take a seat." I bite my lip, feeling off. Why do I feel I'm meeting him for the first time? I've worked here all my life.

I take a seat at the other end of the table, a woman with raven black hair and silver eyes study me. "I'm glad you could make it, I want to give you a mission." He tells me, everyone is studying me and I don't know how they're feeling.

"What is it, Sir?" I ask, my voice trembling slightly. He nods to the man next to me and he pulls a file from a bag. He places it in front of me, I take it and open it. The first thing I see is a beautiful blonde haired boy with piercing blue eyes. He's walking, this picture was taken secretly and I bite my lip.

"We want you to return to The Towers and find this boy, bring him back to us." I study the other photos, spreading them out in front of me. My heart beating really hard as I study the photo of his wings, a beautiful pearl white. "He's special, we need him. We have his father and we have business to attend." I scan over his file.

"Are you fucking kidding me?" Zeke says from behind me, I look at him. He's fuming mad and his father studies him with amusement.

"He'll follow you. After all, you are a beautiful young woman and he seems to be drawn to women like you." He tells me. "She'll leave tomorrow morning, pack her things. I don't want to hear another word about it, teach her how to make a portal." He orders Zeke, his voice sending chills down my spine.

I didn't know how I felt about this, something inside of me not wanting to enter the portal. I didn't know the boy yet something made me hesitant, something deep inside of me feeling like it was going to explode at any moment. I learn that he's an Angel hybrid, very rare and that his father had been a resident in Hell. I didn't know why they wanted him, it wasn't my place to ask.

I learn that his father was a full blooded Incubus who had fallen in love with an Angel. They was forbidden to be together, it was frowned upon. I learn that his father has been lying to protect the mother and prevent her from being banished from heaven, telling everyone that the sexual intercourse was non-consensual.

"Oh my God." I look up, Zeke is sitting on the bed with his back turned to me. His head is buried into his hands and he stays silent. "This boy's father labelled himself a rapist to protect the mother." I feel my stomach twist.

"Whenever they figure out that a demon and angel has had a child, a consensual relationship, there job is to murder the offspring." He stands, shrugging his button up shirt off.
