Chapter Twenty-Three
Later that night, when Max had passed out in his bed, Damian wandered into the living room and plopped down in the chair. He pushed the poker into the newly-made fire and leaned back as he drew in the warmth and comfort of it. His mind moved immediately to Abraham and everything he had gone through. Elizabeth had been a good merc, and from what he knew about her, she had been a really wonderful person as well. She really cared about people, which was why she had signed up to fight even though she wasnât infected.
His thoughts about the rogue fighter had always been ambivalent. He had known the man for almost fifteen years and fought beside him, which meant he knew almost everything there was to know about him. Thinking back, he couldnât say that he had been a trustworthy guy or even really that good a friend to him. However, in the present situation, he felt incredibly bad for him. In his mind, it would be no different than if Korbin had lost Stephanie or vice versa. They were connected in a way that Damian didnât fully understand.
Ravi sighed. The last time I came to Earth, I felt my real first emotion.
He was surprised. Really? What happened?
The tone of her voice was different. There was a whisper of sadness in it. I made a friend. She was my first friend, and we did everything together. I knew the world was a dangerous place, so I did whatever I could to protect her. This was during the forties. We went out to a club to dance, she met some guy, and he dragged her off. In the end, he and his buddies killed her. The worst part about it was that they were demons. My own kind killed my best friend.
Damianâs heart went out to her. Ravi, Iâm so sorry about that. It doesnât matter whether youâve felt emotions your whole life or only for a moment. Losing someone is difficult.
She sighed and brightened. Yeah, well, thatâs the thing with you meatsacks. You break so easily. Youâre like a bunch of porcelain dolls walking around the planet. One strong storm and you snap like a twig.
He chuckled. Iâm surprised that you made a human connection like that.
Well, you have to remember something, old chap. A lot of us were once creatures of God too.
The priest tilted his head to the side, shocked by that statement. He had always assumed she was a regular demon like all the others he had come acrossâbesides Pandora, of course. It made him think that she knew more about fallen angels than she was willing to admit. Before he could bring up the subject, though, his phone vibrated in his front pocket.
He pulled it out and smiled, seeing Katieâs name on the screen. âWell, well, if it isnât the prodigal daughter. Itâs good to see your name pop up on my phone.â
She laughed. âAnd itâs good to hear your voice. Timothy told me you called a couple of days ago.
