INSPIRING WORDS

“It is one thing to be clever and another to be wise.”

- George R.R. Martin

CHAPTER 1

Lucy

I was back in Gabriel’s office and nothing had changed, but everything felt different. I knew that I should be pissed. I knew that I should be frightened over what he was going to do to me next, but I wasn't. I wasn’t anything. I couldn't bring myself to care about anything. Not even the fact that Daniel was Lucifer or the fact that I’d just discovered that I wasn’t human.

I could feel Gabriel’s curious eyes on me as I lay perfectly still. “What do you remember?” He asked, as I shifted my eyes over to him. His voice sounded shrill against my ears. It was almost as though it was made out of thousands of tiny bells that were being mashed together. It hurt my ears with its sickly sweet sound.

“I remember everything,” I told him calmly.

“You need to tell me what you remember,” Gabriel said and his voice continued to drill through my ears.

“I don’t need to tell you anything,” I said in the same calm manner. I could tell that he was getting annoyed with my answers, but I didn’t care.

“You will share with me what you know.”

“Why? What are you going to do if I don’t?”

“You don’t want to know what I’ll do to you,” Gabriel threatened me.

“That’s weird, because I’m sure I just asked,” I said cockily.

I could see Gabriel’s cheeks turning a blazing red. His breathing was getting heavier with annoyance and his heart was beating hard against his chest. “I will find out what you know,” Gabriel said.

He walked away from the bed and out of my view. I strained to see where he’d gone, but I couldn’t angle my head right. I closed my eyes and waited for him to come back.

It wasn’t like I didn’t have enough to think about, anyway. I’d just discovered that Daniel was Lucifer. Daniel, my best friend and anchor in this world, was actually my creator. It was mind-blowing. It hardly seemed possible that it could be the truth, but I’d felt the memories return to me and I knew that they were real.

I wondered what that meant for Daniel’s army. I wondered whether it was ready to march ahead without him or whether he’d truly called it off when he’d come up topside. I wondered why he’d even come up topside in the first place. It didn’t make any sense. The last thing I remember of him being Lucifer was him saying he would send me away and give me my best chance at happiness.

It didn’t make any sense and I knew that it would continue to be a puzzle until I spoke to Daniel. I pulled gently against the straps that were holding me down. They felt stronger than their material would have suggested. I realized that they’d been engraved with ancient symbols, which I was sure had been designed to keep demons in their place.

I couldn’t think of an escape.
