Gloom Chapter 280
-Oh do not worry. “Khaius isn't dead, he's just in shock from the pain,” she replied, and a slight relief warmed my chest. I wouldn't mind killing him though. Besides, believe me, no one in Hell is going to miss him. Many there despise him.Another growl of anger reverberated in my chest.“I'm looking forward to talking to you, Amy,” he said calmly, “but since I don't want you to call that son of a bitch Azazziel…” He raised a hand and snapped his fingers.Diana and Dave's muffled moans sounded in unison as Naamah pulled out a dagger that she seemed to have hidden in the sleeve of her leather jacket. A lump formed in my throat when I saw how she placed the sharp tip of the weapon on Diana's neck, and she closed her eyes tightly as tears fell down her cheeks.My heart was squeezed."I'm going to take the tape off of you," Mabrax warned me, "but if you call him, Naamah will use her dagger on any of them." And no matter how fast he can come, believe me, she will open your friends' throat

My eyes darted from his face to hers, and the anticipated joy made her smile with pure emotion. The terror felt palpable inside me.—I-is it really worth torturing me if they know that they are going to be killed later?—What if it's worth it? —Another laugh of genuine humor escaped his lips—. This is the only way we can feel , Amy. It's the only thing that makes us feel alive. What do you think? "Besides," she added with a strange tone, "trust me when I tell you that you won't last long alive, because I have another surprise prepared for you and your lover."The alarm went off in me.—What ?"They'll know," he promised calmly. They'll find out when this is all over. For now, I just want you to be aware of one thing. —He squinted at her, and I saw a strange look in her, which I couldn't identify but which caused me a lot of insecurity. You see, I want to ask you something: did you know that what happened to your parents was not a fluke of fate?I opened my eyes wide. Those words alone

My breathing quickened, and I wasn't able to keep the fear and desperation inside me at bay. Mabrax held Claire's gaze for a couple of seconds, until she smiled.“I'm afraid my interest in you is over, Claire,” he said, then nodded toward me. Now you're only here because this girl cares more about everyone else than herself.I heard Claire whisper “Please” over and over again as fresh tears ran down her cheeks, but he had already stopped looking at her.I stared at the face of the demon in front of me, searching for any hint of a lie, anything that would tell me that what he had told me about my parents was nothing more than a deception. I stared at him, and he just returned a calm and easy look.I couldn't distinguish anything in his pupils that would reveal otherwise. I could only see the malice and satisfaction etched in them, the smugness written in their features."Y-yes it was you..." I said with a small voice.He immediately understood what I meant, and smiled happily.—Oh, I d

"You lie..." I saw how, slowly, he took out another dagger from the sleeve of his jacket.The blood fled from my face as he brought her close to me."N-Naamah, I don't have any special powers," I spoke cautiously, fully aware of the gun very close to my cheek. I didn't force him to do anything. He just didn't attack me because it wasn't what he wanted.—And why would he obey you? —His blue eyes narrowed with a look that seemed to be resentful—. Why do Akhliss and Azazziel pay more attention to you than anyone else? That bitch hit me just for defending you!—I-I don't have the slightest idea, I swear.She exhaled sharply through her nose in an irritated gesture. She moved the knife away from my face. Then she crouched down in front of me the same way Mabrax had done and, stunning me, she pressed her nose to my hair and took a deep breath before turning away from her again."You still smell like a virgin ," he said, and a mocking smile crept across his lips. She didn't do it to you, rig
Gloom Chapter 284
A growl of helplessness, confusion and fear made me struggle against the ropes, ignoring my pain. This was an absolute horror, because not only were they torturing me, but also my friends, and I couldn't tell which was worse. It was real, true agony .A flash of pure, raw anger surged through me."They are cowards..." I mumbled. I saw Mabrax turn his face rudely toward me, while Naamah raised her eyebrows to the sky. They have us tied because they can't free us.-That? Naamah snapped, with a hint of mockery as if that had seemed absolutely ridiculous. Do you think that if I untie you you will be able to defeat me?I forced myself to look at her.-Taste me…Of course not. He was aware that he couldn't fight her, much less Mabrax. He was aware of their supernatural strength and quickness, but the thought was that, perhaps, if they were focused on me, Dave and the girls would suffer less from their harassment and torture.I could clearly hear Naamah's irritated growl.—What are you doing

A horrible sound. A loud bang, so forceful that it could have been lightning that fell from the sky, too close to the abandoned warehouse. For a stormy second, silence reigned after the echo he left.Until a scream that came from outside thundered throughout the place.—¡MABRAX!A hint inside me stirred violently when I recognized his presence.Part of me felt an indescribable wave of relief, because I could recognize that voice anywhere…, but it also gave me exceptional fear, since I had never heard him this angry before.I watched as Naamah broke free of Mabrax's arms, and began to back away."You said I wasn't going to come..." she muttered in his direction."That's what we were supposed to do," Mabrax muttered, his jaw clenching.The she-devil made a furious grimace, and pushed him furiously.—And what are you doing here then?!-Don't know!Another impact, which was also heard as if it were an irascible lightning bolt, echoed between the walls. The roof structure released a cloud

A shiver of pure disgust ran down my spine.I was able to hear the guttural and savage growl that Azazziel uttered."Ah, ah," Mabrax murmured in an amused denial, but it quickly disappeared. You come closer and I kill her. If any of you dare to take a step, I will kill her, you hear?!Then, Akhliss's figure appeared in my field of vision. Relief and amazement ran through my system in equal parts, since – like Azazziel – two large dark wings protruded from his back, but different from his; Theirs were membranous and smooth like those of bats.His eyes were narrowed in a surprisingly stern expression, but nowhere near as Azazziel's, but more controlled. Almost analytical.—Do you really think it's worth it, Mabrax? —she asked him—. Is torturing that girl worth your death?-You're going to kill me? Mabrax asked. Are they really going to murder me just because of an insignificant human?"That's how you decided," Azazziel replied, without showing an ounce of mercy."You will risk your posi

I looked up, confused and scared to death, and then I could see Claire a short distance from where we were, with an empty bottle in one hand. My fear grew to enormous levels, because I didn't understand what had happened. How the hell did she even get there?!Immediately, Mabrax and I moved a couple of steps, while he continued to grunt in pain. And then, without me being able to do anything to stop it, he raised one arm and hit Claire across her torso with such speed and force that she was thrown off of her. Her back hit a wall violently, and then ended up on her side on the floor. Her face twisted into a pained grimace.A horrified scream built in my throat, but I couldn't even utter the girl's name, when something else suddenly happened. Something I would never have expected and definitely not Mabrax either.It all happened too soon.The first thing I heard was a tearing sound, very close to me, and I immediately turned around and noticed the thick straight steel—long, shiny, and s
