Virga

It doesn’t seem right that I should pick between one or the other.

Truth be told, both Tueur and Azazel present themselves as complicated hot messes. The former is my soulmate, though I never agreed to it—and neither did he. Worse even, he’s been using me while claiming me, and I’m horribly confused about everything regarding us!

The latter may or may not be worse. He’s my father, though he was never around. An archdemon who squandered his power on oaths instead of keeping me and my mom together… Deep down, I understand why he obeyed her, even without the whole discourse of a demon’s loving devotion.

I’m still reeling from the memories of my mother. I felt everything within my bones. My mortal father, John, once told me that trauma and the experiences of our parents are inherited, that entire generations live through our blood. It’s probably why I had access to those recollections, in the first place. She loved Azazel intensely, and she had no choice but to hand me over to a demon in order to save me. She died saving me…

Meanwhile, Azazel was elsewhere, and he won’t tell me more about it. The truth hangs between us, and it reeks. We both know that sooner or later I will learn everything. Yet the way he looks at me, now, the warmth in his otherwise sharp and beautifully cruel features… Good intentions are worthless without actions. That much I have learned the hard way.

“You’re taking longer than I’d hoped,” Azazel mutters. He sounds disappointed.

“Can you blame me?” I reply with a shrug.

“Not really. I have wronged you plenty,” he says, then points a finger at Tueur. “But he’s worse. He has used you to get to me. I don’t care that he has changed his mind and heart and whatever. I’ve been around the block for eons, Virga. Nephils always do this. They’re desperate to belong with the angels, and they betray everything they believe and everyone who has ever helped them in order to ascend. Meanwhile, the angels keep laughing and laughing and not giving a single shit about him and his kind,” he adds.

“I’m not just any Nephil though, am I?” Tueur replies. “You know who my father is.”

“And he’s the worst among them,” Azazel scoffs. “Trust should not be squandered, Virga. It will end badly for you if you follow him away from here. Dealing with angels, even half-angels like Tueur here… it always ends badly for the demons.”

I can’t help but offer a subtle smirk in return. “Do you think I’d be safer with you?”

“If the angels catch up with you, Azazel, you won’t be able to protect her. They will kill her,” Tueur interjects.

“What do you think they will do if they find her with you, then?” the archdemon replies, narrowing his eyes as he glowers at him. I can almost feel the anger, the stinging insult dripping from his gruff voice. “Don’t tell me you’re dumb enough to think they’ll let the half-demon live because the half-angel demanded it.
