Love is patient, love is kind but above all, love is hard.

"I am here to see the Archangel." 

"Aren't we all?" Replied the guard after chuckling at the blatant naivety of the frail woman. "Name?"
 
"I'm here to see the Archangel." She replied stubbornly still not looking up from her shoes that peeked out from the bottom of her cloak, revealing more of her toes through their large holes than the muddy, worn leather that formed the patchwork shoe itself. 

They were her last pair. 

Not that she had taken many substitutes with her when she had left. A hasty departure was never well planned.

Amidst the Apocalypse war between humans and angels, Diletta, a disabled young woman, is on a mission to rescue the archangel commander she is in love with from a secret US military base, jeopardizing humanity's fate in the process. When Heaven's legions descended on Earth, the world rejoiced. But humanity's leaders refused to surrender their power to angels, and a war broke out that left civilization in ruins. Things seemed to turn in humankind's favor when the US army succeeded in capturing the commander of the celestial army and now holds him prisoner in an underground secret military base in New Mexico. Just before the angels arrived, Diletta moved to Rome from the States to start her life over, after a serious accident left her disabled and heavily depressed. Obsessed with Heaven's commander, she is hellbent on saving him, even though it could cost her her life as well as everybody else's. The guilt is eating her up, but she can't stop. Is Diletta blinded by the darkness of her past or is there something else going on? Is she truly in control of her actions or are there greater forces at play? With the help of unlikely allies - two zealot priests, a fallen angel, and an Apache delivery man - Diletta is on a collision course with destiny; on her way to rescue the man of her dreams and condemn everyone else. Prepare for a tale of faith and courage, where every step taken is a gamble, and every choice made carries unthinkable consequences. Dive into the mesmerizing dance between mortal longing and celestial desire as Diletta risks all to free the archangel general who holds her heart in chains. And maybe, just maybe, he's the one to set it free.

Would you sell your soul for fame? Adelaide did. Now the Devil is back, and he wants to make a new deal. Her soul in exchange for evidence that his son is breaking the law. But what happens when she finds herself falling in love with the Devil's son. Adelaide is caught between her past and present as her plan to uncover the truth starts to unravel. Unsure of her future, she fights to gain control of her life. • • • "Ms. Hepburn, we have a delivery for you," an assistant said nervously, a vase full of red roses in her hand. "Thank you, please just set them over there," I stated with a smile, pointing to an empty table next to my stuff. After she passed I looked over to the main entrance, there were multiple vases of roses. I went to the one that had a note pinned to one of the thorny flowers. It said 'Six hundred and sixty-six reasons that I want to see you again. - Lucius Stewart.' How did he even know I would be here? I was in complete shock. Six hundred and sixty-six flowers for six hundred and sixty-six reasons? He might as well have just tattooed 'Devil's Spawn' on his forehead. How could one man be so rich and so powerful, seemingly just as smart, but be so God damn cliche? It would've been more respectable for him to have put 'Hey! Can't wait to sixty-nine with you!' Might as well just introduce himself as his unholiness and tell everyone about all the souls he tortured during his childhood. I have six hundred and sixty-six reasons to want to make him fall in love with me so that I don't have to live in hell for all eternity. Un-fucking-believably stupid. Unless he's trying to mind game me and is trying to see if I'm just the stupid little model he thinks I am? • • • #84 ONC2020 #128 opennovellacontest2020 Made it to round 3! :)))

[COMPLETE] A rambly angel. A debonair demon. A very stuck elevator... NIRAEL has never been the best angel. A little too loud, always in the wrong place at the wrong time, she constantly finds herself written up by her archangel superiors for minor misdemeanors. When her Remedial Goodness program forces her to do a capstone project on Earth, she decides this will be the day she finally turns her life around. That is, until she meets... AZERATH has always been a good demon. Which, for a demon, is tantamount to career suicide. Sent to Earth as part of his Remedial Evil program, his demonic superiors issue him an ultimatum: corrupt a hundred souls in the next month or risk being unmade. But they didn't specify that the souls he corrupts have to be human. Mostly romcom fluff with a dash of existential angst.
