♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱"He will kill you"She screamed in my mind and then my eyes opened suddenly. I had fallen asleep in the room again and there she was, staring at me with those huge blue eyes."You... are you okay?" Elaine questioned me and I couldn’t help but smile, how could I? She looked at me as if she was worried and as if my answer defined the mood of her day; after so long (2 weeks to be exact), her voice finally seemed less locked."I’m just... I had a bad dream" I lied, but although somehow I wasn’t wrong I could still feel those red eyes staring at me, at my soul."Human liar" was like I could hear her and a part of me couldn’t help but feel curious about how Asra was still there."How... bad?" Elaine questioned and her hands trembled "I... was in this dream?"I sighed.She always looked like this when I had "bad dreams" and in those moments the young age her appearance had gained (going from about 11 to 13 in the last week), they went down the drain."Elaine, I’m fine" I

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Elaine ⋅• ♱"He won’t leave us alone" I said as my reflection smiled, he kept smiling at me as tears fell down my cheek. " Why? Why can’t he leave us alone?"I wondered, but my reflection did not respond, just cried and I could not feel the tears on my cheeks."I don’t want it anymore, I can’t take it anymore...""But he won’t leave us alone" my reflection then repeated and I felt my chest hurt.Yes.He would never leave me alone."I’m tired..." I muttered to myself and felt a cold hand.That touch... it wasn’t cold before, was it?I raised my eyes and the hand that caressed my face was so pale that it bordered the bluish, but the nails... those red nails, carmine.Asra!My eyes widened when I looked at her, her face was too pale, too pale to be just her. Her lips were blue and in her eyes...In his eyes there was no more life."N-no! NO!" I screamed, but my voice did not seem to want to leave, it was as if again I was just a spectator.NO! NO! I kept screaming,

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Calisto ⋅• ♱"Daddy! Daddy! Do you think Asra will like these flowers?" Loren asked me for the thousandth time and all I could do was smile as he leaned on my shoulder and let the doctor put that gigantic needle in his little arm.It should hurt.It must have hurt a lot and in those moments I would give everything to be me in your place, but like all other things present in my life - I could not change it just by wanting."Yes, I think she will," I said while holding his pale little hand. He had three flowers there, a wild lily, a dandelion and a camellia.Smile.If he knew what those flowers meant, maybe he wouldn’t have picked them so perfectly."Should I get others? I think she’d like that little pink flower..." he said as his fingers moved almost nervously."Loren, she’s gonna love the ones you already picked, don’t you trust Daddy?"He stared at me, his eyes fixed on mine."But... Dad said he wasn’t very good at picking gifts..." he said so sincerely that I

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Calisto ⋅• ♱"What did you say?""A ball."I blinked and Azrael snorted sitting on the leather sofa in the corner."A dance? But what the fuck..." grumbled the fallen "I was not enough all this work, right?"I faced Azrael, but I couldn’t say he was wrong.The balls were exhausting."Whose damn idea was this gerico?" the fallen asked and Zaniel held his laughter "Baltazar is settling Asra’s affairs again?""Actually..." Zaniel stared at me "Balthazar became duke after indications from the duchess and soon after... she assumed all her duties."Smile.I expected this to happen and although I didn’t expect it to be so soon - it was good to know that Asra was finally taking the reins in relation to her work, but... what did it have to do with the prom?As if reading my mind, Azrael grumbled."And what the fuck does that have to do with prom?""Well..." Zaniel smiled "it was the duchess who decided she would throw a ball. A ball at the beginning of winter to receive

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Asmodeus ⋅• ♱Three steps, two and one.My fingers snapped and the guard fell asleep.Callisto should not yet know that I was there - if he knew, he would never leave Lucifer’s private library unprotected like that."You’re a terrible person," my private demon kept saying, "Are you really gonna break into a near-dead library?"Smile.Almost dead? Lucifer was fine, would be fine. She had the heart of a phoenix after all. It wasn’t like something silly was going to kill her, it definitely wasn’t going to happen."I am" I stated as I passed over the body "I am a heartless, heartless monster."The mockery in my voice was too obvious."You’re hopeless," he complained, but I didn’t care at all.If that little being meant to offend me, he’d have to try a lot harder."Găsește pentru mine ceea ce vreau cu adevărat" the enchantment came out of my lips and the whole room looked like a grey sea in my eyes, but there, amidst all that monotony - he was.
