Chapter Ten

I should not have left alone. The warning to herself left her cold. Shea clutched the dark cloak to her shivering form, hating that it had rained yet again. I should have told someone where I was going, or at least left a note. Reprimanding herself made her angry and that energy coursed through her like a subtle breeze. However, telling a sister she attended a Choral Choir for the Holy Madonna Church far from their sanctuary would be met with condemnation. Shea quickened her pace, telling her over-active imagination to settle. She’d lived through worse. It was past dusk, and long dark shadows of the night stretched like the occasional tall buildings as she scurried down Huntington Avenue onto a smaller street. If Izzy knew she dared step foot inside a church, a Roman Catholic Church at that, Shea didn’t know what she’d say. Nor did she plan to find out. I need to sing. I need to her the voices of others, always. It soothes my soul. She’d recited that to herself a dozen times but still lacked the courage to tell any of her sisters.

Shea wished she’d grabbed a hat. The back of her head was drenched causing her to hunch her shoulders against the shivers. Traveling through the two smaller streets allowed her to cut off almost four long blocks. A shortcut, which forced her to slink along back alleys, saved more than an hour of walking. The essence of time ticked away at her. She didn’t like the alleys but had to get home before her presence would be missed. Questions about where she had gone were to be avoided. Lying to her sisters, something she couldn’t do. None of them could. Omission, on the other hand, was a long ago learned tactic.

A dark shape rose from the building, its form coalescing into a hideous mass barely resembling man. Shea’s heart instinctively recognized it as demon-spawned. Two red glowing eyes, looking like licking flames glared at her and then the hideous mass morphed into a beautiful dark angel. Shea longed to run. Her legs frozen in place somehow kept her standing. That in itself was miraculous. Trembling with terror, she kept her eyes trained on the man. Two beautiful black wings arched him off the ground so that he hovered over the asphalt. His face, chiseled marble, a thing of Seraphim grace caused her breath to hitch. The realization a dark angel, a demon-spawned angel stood assessing her caused her life essence to boil. A darker thought stole through her. She had dreamt of this angel. He’d been the one to whisper words of comfort in her mind when she’d first landed on earth.

“Are you Lucifer?”

A quirk of a smile flirted with his perfectly sinful lips. Eyes, as dark as coal, flickered over her. Then he laughed.

“I am the son of Lucifer, my pretty white angel. And it has taken me a long time to find you. Why are you on earth?”

Find her? He, the son of Lucifer had hunted for her.
