Everyone was just staring and listening to Trevor; they could all sense the tension he was feeling and knew that he was scared to death after fighting Burnaman."I am not cut out for battle," he said, his hands trembling on his lap."It’s too late for that; you are already in this," Kevin replied bluntly."I have never been in a fist fight before. When my aunt and uncle abused me after I went to live with them, I just took the beatings. No matter what the other kids said to me in school or how much they mocked me, I pretended I couldn’t hear and I never spoke back to them; I never retaliated," Trevor explained in a shaky voice as he lowered his head."Sorry, but if you think that is strength, you are wrong," Kevin replied."I know that it’s not a strength, I know what’s a weakness. I am afraid to attack someone because I am a coward," Trevor said in a low tone."That’s not true; I don’t believe that," Kevin replied."Yeah, it’s because you are a kind person," Mordecai added."I can’t
anything. "Trevor," Brianna said in a low tone. She was the one standing behind the front door inside Trevor’s bedroom. "Huh, Brianna," he replied as he turned on the bedside light. "You and I need to talk; it has to be tonight," she said boldly. "What? I am still sleepy; can’t we just talk tomorrow?" He asked in a low tone. "No, I want you to sleep in my bed," she answered boldly. "Huh," he gasped as his eyes opened widely. Revel and Mordecai were hovering in the room beside the bed; they both gasped upon hearing what she said. "Hold on a minute! Brianna what’s this all about?!" Revel asked. "There is something I need to tell Trevor," she answered. "You don’t need to share a bed just to talk to him," Revel said in a rumbling tone. Brianna turned and looked at Revel. "That’s true, but I don’t think I would be able to tell him unless we do. I’d like you both to go somewhere else until morning," she replied in a soft tone. "What?!" Revel shouted. "Alright, we will. Sharing a
She began telling him that with his pure heart, he did not deserve to be a devil candidate, which would be detrimental to his life.She turned around and looked at him. "Please forgive me and don’t send me away; let me stay with you.""There is nothing to forgive; I am not mad," he replied in a low tone. Brianna’s eyes started to become teary; she couldn’t believe that even after everything, Trevor did not have anything against her. She couldn’t help but appreciate what a great person Trevor was."Let’s face the world together," he said as he turned around and looked at her with such care in his eyes.After a few minutes, Trevor picked her up and flew away from the building. They both arrived back inside Brianna’s room."Thanks for everything," Brianna said with a bright smile."You are welcome," Trevor replied.***********************************The following morning,At Chris Tanner’s mansion.He was sitting down in a chair, inside a black and white room that had multiple computer
Revel flew over to where Berrell was and bowed his head in front of him."Berrell, I will bow down and swallow my pride; tell me what I must do to become a first-ranking," Revel said boldly.Everyone was shocked to see Revel on his knees; they never thought that Revel was the type of demon to bow down to someone with the amount of pride he has."Revel?" Brianna was shocked to see him on his knees. She knew that Revel wanted to become a first-rank demon just for her sake, but she never imagined that he would bow down in front of a fellow demon."Revel, there are no rules or tests for a demon to be promoted; the basic qualification is that they have to be exceptional in some way," Berrell stated, staring at Revel on the floor."I see, what if I were to acquire more knowledge than you, Berrell?" Revel inquired as he raised his head and gazed at Berrell."That would probably work," he answered."What really?!" Revel asked in excitement as he got up from the floor and moved closer to Berre
At a private investigator’s office,A man with pink hair and a wide smile was pointing a sword at a private investigator who was kneeling on the floor in the middle of the office. The man had dark hair and was wearing a brown suit.The man with pink hair is also a devil candidate; his name is Benson Clifford. He had a red arrow in his right hand and was pointing the sword with his left hand."Look, I am going to need your full cooperation; tell me who shot you with a red arrow," Benson asked, still pointing the sword at his forehead.The man had a red arrow in his chest.His eyes opened wide as he continued trembling."I don’t know what you are talking about, and besides, I’m bound by client confidentiality," the man responded with a shaky voice.Benson then used his sword to slash the man’s face and the suit opened; the vertical line from his forehead to his stomach was visible with blood, but he was not dead. Benson did that as a way of scaring him into telling him the information h
Everyone turned around and gazed at the sky."It’s a red arrow!" Berrell yelled.The red arrow pointed towards them. Trevor quickly covered Brianna with his body so that the red arrow wouldn’t hit her, but the arrow stopped as soon as it got close to his chest."Huh? Why did it stop?" He asked confusedly."It’s okay, the red arrow belongs to me," Kevin answered as he moved forward and collected it into his palm.Everyone let out a sigh of relief as they saw that it belonged to Kevin."However, if it has returned to me. That means one of the people I shot with my red arrows has died," Kevin mumbled, staring at his palm."That’s not all; it means you are now able to use that arrow again," Revel replied.Kevin’s eyes opened wide as a thought hit him. He thought that if the person who had the red arrow in him must have died, that must mean that someone killed him, and it’s likely that the person must be a devil candidate, and that the person must have known his identity by now.He turned
but he didn’t care, he doesn’t care about humans anymore, because he was never accepted even after the surgeries he did on himself, people still found it difficult to accept him. So, he wished to work for Burnaman.Eventually, Benson found out Burnaman’s identity and tracked him down; he convinced Burnaman to allow him to work for him. Burnaman then gave him a task to carry out, and once he does it successfully, he will let him work for him; the task was to find two devil candidates and trap them inside the glass container that was in front of him.Benson raised his hand and tapped the earbud inside his ear."Mr. Burnaman, I have successfully put the bait in the box," Benson said, gazing coldly at Kevin’s family in the glass container."Oh, you work quickly," Burnaman replied calmly."Yeah, I even got Kevin’s cellphone number," Benson said."Really? Not bad," Burnaman replied with a surprised tone."May I ask you something, sir? I currently have only one red arrow left; should I shoot
"Trevor, the glass is a one-way mirror; I am going in!" Kevin flew over to a doorway that leads into the glass container; it was opened, and he went in without thinking too much about it."Don't go in there, Mr. Kevin!" Trevor screamed from behind. Trevor knew that it must have been a trap for the doors to open so quickly and without any hassle.Benson flew to the top of the container within the blink of an eye with a samurai sword in his hand."Hahaha, he went in; this is hilarious; he walked right into the trap; hostages work," Benson exclaimed.Trevor, Berrell, and Mordecai all saw him standing on top of the container, and Trevor recognized Benson as soon as he saw him.Benson raised his head and stared at Trevor and the demons."Now that he's in there, he can't get out; this box has proven to be the ultimate devil candidate capturing attraction, how amusing," Benson exclaimed.This guy is connected to Burnaman? But he would have killed him if he was a devil candidate, which means
"Yeah, you do need answers," Lucifer said softly.**********The following morning,Trevor arrived in front of Ezekiel’s apartment door. This is it, he gulped as he pushed the doorbell at the side of the door. He had called Ezekiel and told him that he wanted to come over and visit him, which Ezekiel agreed to.Suddenly, Ezekiel opened the front door with a bright smile. "Trevor! It’s you; welcome to my apartment," Ezekiel shook his hand."Come on in," Ezekiel said as he turned around and attempted to walk inside.Seeing that he had turned around, Trevor saw it as the perfect opportunity to grab Ezekiel. He swiftly walked closer to him as he wrapped his arm around Ezekiel’s neck as he held him tightly, and they both fell to the ground with Trevor still holding him tightly."What is wrong with you?! Why are you holding me?" Ezekiel asked under his breath; he couldn’t speak properly."I know who you are, Ezekiel, you are an angel of a special ranking, and you have been the one behind al
"What happened, babe? Why is your face like that?" She asked, raising an eyebrow."It’s nothing," he responded softly."Did something happen during your walk?" She inquired."Nothing happened; I need some alone time for now, babe," he responded as he stood and walked towards the balcony.With his reaction, Brianna could tell that something was bothering him, but she didn’t want to add to his worries, so she stood up and went into the bedroom.Trevor arrived at the balcony; he placed his hand on the iron bar as he gazed in front of him as the cold breeze blew through his hair.So all this while Ezekiel got close to me, he was an angel, and judging from the amount of haloes on his head, he is a special-rank angel. How was he able to hide his wings and halo from me? I mean I saw Jordan’s halos all the time and also saw Uriel’s halo, but why didn’t I see his own or get a clue that he was an angel? Trevor wondered."He probably has a special power that can make him hide his powers from oth
“Oh my, after everything that happened to you, you let the restaurant get away with what happened, you would have gotten damage control for what they have done to you,” Ezekiel said in a surprised tone.“I know that, but I don’t want to get any money from them or try to make things difficult for them. What has happened has happened and it is now in the past,” he replied.Wow, it seems Duke is now out of prison and Trevor doesn’t want to pursue any legal actions against him or the restaurant. It’s either he has a kind heart or he is just stupid. But either way, everything worked together for my good, he thought.“I feel you on that. You know something, you are a very kind-hearted person, if another person were to be in your position, they wouldn’t have let this all go that easily,” Ezekiel said.“Yeah, but I am me and I will handle the situation however I want,” he replied.Why is Ezekiel saying all this? What’s his concern if I don’t want to pursue any legal actions on the incident? I
I can’t tell her the main reason I don’t want to press charges, if I do that, she is going to be worried, if she finds out that the waiter that poured me the water was actually under the influence of a red arrow, she’s not going to be able to rest, he thought.“Babe, I don’t want to do that because I don’t want to complicate the waiter of the restaurant’s life. The waiter might be going through a lot, and my face has already been scarred, suing them will just be unnecessary because it won’t take my face back to normal,” he explained softly.Brianna lowered her gaze as she sighed. “I get where you are coming from,” she muttered.**********Three days later,Trevor just got back home from the hospital after being discharged, he was sitting behind a desk that had a large mirror in front of it. He looked at his face in the mirror, as he touched the bandage on his face. Brianna was standing behind him.“The doctor said you can remove the bandage,” Brianna said in a soft tone.“I know, I’m
**********About three hours later in the hospital ward,Brianna was sitting on a chair at the side of Trevor’s hospital bed. She was holding his left hand while staring at him.“How did all this happen to you, babe?” She asked raising an eyebrow.“I don’t know but the police have arrested the waiter that poured the water on me, and they are currently investigating the accident to know whether it was intentional or not,” he answered.“OK, but I hate seeing you like this, how could something like this happen to you? It’s not fair,” she said in a shaky tone.“Don’t worry babe you don’t have to feel sad; I will be fine with time, everything is going to be fine,” he replied as he rubbed her hand.“You know Trevor, somehow this is your fault, if you hadn’t gone out on that lunch or had been cautious like I told you, this would not have happened to you,” Lucifer said calmly in Trevor’s mind.“Don’t blame me for this, I was cautious, and I never imagined that something like this would happen
"Alright then, I trust you. You will have to wait for me to text you; it might not be tomorrow or next week, but once I text you, just know that you will have to be ready," he said calmly."Of course, I will make sure that I am ready," Duke replied.This is good; I believe that Duke will get the job done, Ezekiel thought.***After Duke had left Ezekiel’s apartment, he went into his bedroom and sat down at the edge of his bed as he took out his cellphone and dialed Trevor’s number. Trevor answered the call."Hey, it’s been a while since I heard from you; how have you been?" Ezekiel asked softly."I have been great; things are good, and how about you? Have you properly understood the city yet?" Trevor inquired with a lot of excitement in his voice."Yes, I have; I have taken the time to explore a few places in the city, and I must say Los Angeles is great.""That’s good to hear," Trevor muttered."I would like to know if you would have the chance to grab lunch with me tomorrow." Ezekie
"It has not been easy, but the only thing that keeps me going is knowing that he had a child with Brianna before dying," Gabriel answered calmly, staring into Dalton’s eyes."Tell me, where is Brianna? She is one of the reasons I even came here today," Gabriel said.Dalton swiftly broke eye contact with him as he lowered his gaze. He didn’t know how he was supposed to tell him that Brianna had moved in with Trevor, the former person she almost married before leaving him for Jordan. Dalton didn't know how he was going to break the news to him, but he knew that even if he tried to avoid the question today, Gabriel would still find out the truth in the future, so he gathered the courage as he raised his head to look at Gabriel."Dalton, tell me, where is she?" Gabriel added."Brianna is currently staying with Trevor, her new boyfriend, and the person she plans on getting married to," Dalton answered."What! How could that be!" Gabriel yelled as he stood up from the couch with a huge frow
**********Meanwhile, in Ezekiel’s apartment, he was sitting behind his desktop computer at the side of his bed with headphones on his head. He was listening to Trevor and Brianna’s conversation. After finding out that Josh had been captured, he stood up and dropped the headphones.I can’t believe Josh was so stupid as to get caught; why can’t he just abandon the truck after selling the stuff inside? He must be a real fool for getting caught. One thing I know for sure is that he is not going to tell the police about me; the red arrow will make sure of that, he thought.He ambled over to his bed and laid down. At least Josh was able to carry out the task I gave him; he was able to sell the properties. It’s going to take a while before Brianna would be able to buy back all the things she has lost, thus she is currently very unhappy, and Trevor would also be sad seeing her unhappy. I will have to give them a few days to regroup before I come up with another plan, he thought.***********
Raymond was sitting behind a table in front of Josh in a dark room that had a white bulb above the table. Josh's hands were in handcuffs on the table, while Raymond’s hands were clasped together on the table. A police officer was standing at Raymond’s right side."First of all, I would like to know why you ran away with the truck in the first place? Didn’t you think of the consequences and that we were going to catch you?" Raymond asked calmly, staring into Josh’s eyes. Raymond has been an investigator for years, so he has seen all types of criminals and has even interrogated them. What he has learned over the years is that all criminals have an origin story.I thought I did everything that the angel told me right; I didn’t think that I was going to get caught this easily, and now this detective wants to know why I did everything, I can’t tell him the truth about why I did what I did; I won’t say anything about the angel; I will just have to come up with a lie, Josh thought."I ran aw
