The Nine Circles of Hell have always been barren and cold. The frigid wind of the abyss had filled its caverns with death, dread, and silence. Yet in the frozen throne room where a demon of great power resides, a fire is lit between him and an unexpected guest. An immortal - an angel, clad in rusty armour,  named Dina sits beside the burning embers of the fire, sharing stories with him, and accompanying him as they spend a quiet time in hell

***

"How does an angel such as yourself come to be in possession of such rusty armour? In that regard, why would an angel even wear armour in the first place?" The curiosity in his voice trailed behind.

"I wasn't planning on coming here," she replied as she placed down her breastplate. "I got lost, really. Silly me. While trying to find my way out, I found myself deeper and deeper into your place."

Lawson's Tragedy by LunaMarieWolf
6 parts Ongoing Mature
(Edited Excerpt From Chapter 1) Lawson's brows furrow in anger as he inhales, setting down the useless utensil. His arms stretch above his head, his bones cracking as his wings spasm, his groan echoing down the halls. He pulls his bag into his lap, the sienna hide contrasting happily against the azure gown on his frame. He pulls it open swiftly, a hand disappearing into it as he digs for another quill. A midnight feather taps the book in front of him, the boy freezing in place. The unsettling figure loomed over him, the energy of the being closing the air off in his lungs, his wings tightening around the chair immediately. He dare not look up, for the energy of the person made the hair stand up all over his body. His mind screamed to run, to get away from what- or whoever was offering up a worn quill to the lower-ranking angel. The boy hesitated, his eyes fixated on the inky black quill in front of him, the color so dark it consumed the light around it. He willed his lungs to draw in air, his eyes daring to look up at the intruder, but it was soon stolen a second time. Piercing emerald eyes peer down at the boy, his expression hard and unkind as a stray midnight strand of hair falls in front of his face. His skin is a lovely light olive tone, his skin etched with scars, some new and some still crusted with fresh blood. His wings stand at half-furl, the boy's eyes quickly wandering to them. The inky black feathers seem to twitch in annoyance, silver tendrils of metal reflecting the only light the wings did not consume. * * * * * * * * Lawson knows he should not get intertwined with an angel above his rank, but somehow life keeps tying the two together. Through war, love, loss, and hatred, will Lawson bend to the terrors tossed into his once peaceful life, or will he overcome the darkness and turn into the angel everyone should have feared?

[COMPLETED] She came up to a small hill where the moonlight was directly above her. She looked up at the moon, how the cloudless dark blue sky helped the moon to shine brighter. She felt an immense happiness spark in her heart. She felt it travel through her veins, she felt a tickling feeling in her finger tips. She looked at them only to see sparks fly from her tanned hands. She stared in disbelief. The sparks of white was emitting from her hands and disappearing in to thin air. She whispered inside her breath, " Oh.. my god... magic!?...." Her chuckles transformed into joyous laughter. She found her power without anyone's help. She started to move her wrists for a rhythm, humming her favourite tunes of 'Coldplay'. The sparks from her hands kept glowing, brighter and brighter with her happiness. She spun around, unable to contain her happiness and excitement. The magical sparks following her hands. She layed on the grass, with her arms open. The dew drops damping her back. She watched the sparks float into the dark blue sky, beautiful enough to replace the stars. Soon it stopped. She closed her eyes but the smile on her face refuse to leave.

18+ Edited and Completed When Mira bumps into a man in the club, dressed in wings, she thought "What kind of an inconsiderate idiot wears wings to the club". Its only until she touches the wings that she realises that they are very much real. Within an instant, Mira's life is turned upside down. Knowing now that angels and demons are real and have been living amongst humans on earth for decades, she decides she needs to learn more about them and about the sight that she was gifted by this mysterious angel, Jenziel. One other thing bothered Mira. Where were the other women with the sight and why was she the only one to be gifted the sight? Did it have something to do with the broody, burly, yet strikingly handsome fallen angel who undoubtedly looked like he was dying to kill her? With Lucifer's demons hunting her down, time is running out for Mira. If Lucifer get his hands on her, he will use her to spawn more advanced demons. Can the fallen keep her and the rest of the mortals safe? Excerpt: "So, are you planning on telling me what happened in the city with the demons, or do I have to tempt Kazier into a make out session to get some answers?". Azriel used his annoying angel gift and speed walked me to the bathtub. The back of my knees hit the tub with a thud and I stumbled back into a seating position on the edge of the tub. I was leaning back uncomfortably and gasped in disbelief, nearly about to fall into the tub and hurt myself and grabbed onto the only I could; the band of his pants. Azriel's eyes dropped to where my fingers were gripping onto and slowly, he snaked his vision up to me. I watched him for a few seconds until he seemed to have snapped out of his thoughts. "You will do no such thing, you hear me? You will not try to entice Kazier". I shivered when he spoke, his breath tickling my face. I bit my tongue from refraining to say anything to upset him further but failed miserably. "Maybe...maybe I don't even have to try...".
