Chapter Twenty-Five

“How did we fail?” On a hilltop overlooking the convention center, Aiden viewed the damage with a dispassionate eye. A dull roar filled his head, the fury he managed to contain. An uncontrollable rage wouldn’t get results, and he needed results.

“They weren’t alone. The UnHallowed were with them.” A Spaun cowered at Aiden’s feet.

“Four of them were there. Former Archangels of Atonement and Storm, and two others, lesser warrior class fallen angels known to associate with the UnHallowed. Bane and Gideon are their names,” Rophus spilled in a rush. “A Hazk died attempting to snatch one of the females.”

The Crossroad demon materialized next to Aiden. “The UnHallowed weren’t in the ladies’ room with them.”

Aiden pivoted and gave her his full attention. “You were there?”

She waved a hand at her attire, a long black dress with silver and black heels. Her only accessory, a pair of teardrop diamond earrings. “Why else would I be dressed like this?”

She did seem to favor low-rise jeans and tight shirts. “And? Do you plan on getting to the point?”

“The point being, men don’t enter ladies’ rooms. Amaya and Dina were alone long enough to be extracted and your demons failed. The battle raged outside long enough to make it possible.”

“The UnHallowed were stronger than anticipated,” Rophus snarled. “Crackus nearly died—”

“That’s why you were supposed to target their women,” Aiden said, venom in his voice.

“Well, they were strong too.” An Ifirt shuffled forward and bowed long enough for his forehead to scrape the dirt.

“Let me guess, you weren’t in Siberia.” The Crossroad demon folded her arms across her chest and snorted her disgust.

Though he shared her annoyance, Aiden growled low. “What does Siberia have to do with anything?” Siberia ended for him when Taige almost took his head. His knowledge of events were second and thirdhand.

“Those two women showed up in Siberia and saved the UnHallowed.” The Crossroad demon volunteered.

Aiden had heard as much but wasn’t completely convinced. “What do you mean saved the UnHallowed?”

“Taige had them right where he wanted, then girl posse showed up and saved the day. There were four of them. The two females tonight, Amaya and Dina were there. Where were the other two, Scarla and Sophie?”

“You know their names?”

“I make a point to know the names of all my enemies.” She smirked, full of confidence. “The two at the convention center were formidable, as they were in Siberia. They had empyreal swords, which leads me to believe they are angels.”

“Angels or archangels?” Aiden pressed. The difference was vital. Only the grace of an archangel could open the Cruor.

“Angels, going by their aura, and weak ones at that,” the Crossroad demon added.

“Angels fraternizing with UnHallowed?” Aiden pondered the unusual arrangement. How to use this to his advantage?

He’d heard about the light show in Siberia. Last week his spies sighted two UnHallowed, the one called Tahariél, former Archangel of Purity, and Zedekiél, former Archangel of Mercy, walking together. In the Sun. If that were the case, former no longer belonged in their titles.
