Chapter 22

ARKYN

The battle ended hours ago, and the temple has once again been home to sacrifice. Blood coats its walls and fills the intricate carved pattern on the floor.

Evander had truly been a demon. Not just killing but slaughtering those that dared cross his path.

Lucifer had disappeared right after Citlali to track her, taking Sitara with him and hoping she could find Theon. I’m standing here feeling useless as I patch the others up. That’s me, putting a bandaid on your boo-boo.

My head whips up. I feel her. Pain rockets through me, and my demon breaks free, my wings snap out, and everyone freezes. Staring at me.

“What the fuck?” Dagen rushes towards me from where he was leaning against the altar. I step back as he draws close, hand outstretched. The problem is I didn’t see Torryn coming from the other direction.

“Well, look who is all special and shit.” I cringe as fingers slide over one of the long primary feathers.

I jerk, spinning away, and Zeph steps in front of me, blocking them. I wish I could see his face because whatever is on it stops them both in their tracks.

“We were just kidding, Arkyn.” Dagen’s eyes are filled with remorse. “Do you know why they aren’t midnight like ours?”

No way I’m saying ‘because Luc said I’m special.’ I shrug instead, but Torryn’s eyes narrow.

Lillian and Charlie’s mouths form perfect circles when they step into the room.

“So pretty,” they say in unison, and their men frown. I grin.

“Lali’s are silver and sparkle like diamonds,” I murmur, and the women oooh over my words. The men frown more. “Lali.” I shake my head, remembering what started all this. “I felt her, Zeph.” He turns and nods.

“I bet they are like that because of your power.” I turn and stare at Lillian. “Lightning. Silver until it hits something then boom. Black.”

“You are so damn smart, sweetheart.” Torryn wraps his arms around her.

“Citlali is hurt. Bad.” Everyone stops, freezes, ready to go to war for me. “I connected with her for just a second, and the pain...” I lock my eyes on Zeph. “We have to get to her.”

“Where?” Why he asks, I don’t know. I can feel him digging through my brain.

“Amsterdam. That’s all I know.” I look at them all.

“Luc!” Lillian yells, but it’s her power flowing out across the damn universe that he will hear.

He appears instantly, that baby girl in his arms. His eyes are wild. “Damn it, Lillian, don’t do that. I was afraid another battle had broken out, that they had returned with more Fallen.”

“So you brought the baby?” Charlie smirks. His face locks down, hiding his emotions.

“What do you want?” It’s a thunderous growl, but the tiny hand that comes up and grabs at his full lower lip ruins the effect.

Some turn away to hide their laughter. I smile at it, and Torryn barks out a laugh.

“I need to get to Amsterdam. Now.” I step around Zeph. Our leader sighs and hands Zeph the child. She
