However, he did not want to fall for it. No more.I swallowed, and took a deep breath.—I'm not going to help you in this anymore… I want you to go away, and not to appear my way again. —My voice did not tremble, I did not stutter. Every word sounded full of conviction. I don't want to see you again for the rest of my life.Azazziel's eyes widened. Shock manifested itself on his face for a whole second, but in the next, the serene countenance from a while ago completely disappeared.Now his face radiated fury."I won't let this stay like this," he muttered. I still can't figure out what's wrong with your head, or why the fuck I can't see your soul. And I'm not going to give up just because you ask."I don't care if you give up or not. I just…” I looked down and filled my lungs with air, before looking back at him. I'm not going to help you do it anymore... After all, you told Mabrax that I was nothing but a freak."And you called me a pet, you fucking idiot . " I mumbled inwardly, but
Gloom Chapter 81
Did my life really seem so miserable, as Azazziel had said before? Why did he think I wanted to die when I followed him and Mabrax? It was undeniable that I had an uncertain future, that I had no idea what to do with my existence, that I never experienced so many things that most boys my age had already done. But from there to being considered miserable ?I had been thinking about the same thing all day, and so now I was reviewing information about the careers offered by the Portland universities. I was distracting myself while I was preparing my bag to go home, when an object in plain sight made me jump.I put a hand on my chest, startled, as I gazed at the pink paper flower in front of me. It looked like an origami job or something, with a little piece of paper attached to it that had a tiny handwritten inscription—a handwriting I knew very well—that said: I'm so sorry . I miss you".I frowned and looked up at Diana. The light green of her eyes showed a regret that made my chest con

There it was again...That familiar premonition, which I wasn't sure if it still terrified me, that uncomfortable suspicion that hadn't disappeared since Saturday. And the worst thing was that she already knew that sensation so well, that she was fully aware that there was no doubt about it.Someone was watching me, but it wasn't Azazziel.In some way she couldn't understand, she could tell when it was him and when it wasn't. She had already checked it a couple of times before. Something alien in me used to react strangely when he appeared, as if he recognized—unconsciously—his presence from him from the others. He hadn't felt the same way with Mabrax or the demon-child, although they were very similar. Therefore, there was no doubt that out there, a dangerous being was waiting, perhaps, for the best moment to attack.I feared for the safety of the people in the cafe, and I swallowed hard as I looked at each one of them. I looked back at the window, at the people passing by on the str

I looked at her for a second, unable to believe what she was saying to me."Did you like that I didn't give my opinion?" I asked in astonishment. At once, I narrowed my eyes, unable to abate the strange rage that began to consume me. Well, maybe now I want to start saying what I don't like, and what I think is not right. Like you have a dream and you don't want to fulfill it for a stupid reason, and you prefer to stay in this job that you hate for the rest of your life.—I don't think I ever saw you angry before, until that day when you discovered us. A very rare slight smile, like a mixture between sad and stunned, she stretched her lips. I liked you better when you were calm, when you didn't get angry about anything.At that moment, an alien voice made us neglect our discussion."Ladies, I'm sorry to interrupt," Jade murmured, approaching us with some caution, "but there's a girl who ordered a coffee from the machine and…""Yes, Jade," I interrupted, still looking at Diana. Her gree

I clenched my fists, digging my nails hard into my palms."What did you lose in your bag, honey?"A chill ran down my spine at the sound of his voice. Her tone was clear, charged with security, with a soft undertone... seductive and melodic at the same time. If I hadn't been so scared, I was sure she would have been jealous of me.I felt cold sweat begin to break out on my forehead. A short laugh fell from her lips. He lowered his head and moved it to the sides."You figured me out, huh?" She said with a tone that seemed almost playful to me.I nodded, unable to trust my own voice."Wow, you are good." She raised her head, looked at me and smiled, showing her perfect teeth. I didn't think you were that much.A gasp left me in that instant. Her face, as beautiful as it is disturbing, took me by surprise. Inhuman eyes, brilliant, an amazing violet color, slowly looked me up and down, and I shuddered again.If at any second I came to doubt it, that confirmed it. I didn't need more to kno

The wickedness of his smile deepened."Guess," he insisted.Another flash of rage pooled more blood on my face. He didn't understand her, but he didn't want to either."I don't care what you two are, demon." The determination I craved was finally heard in my voice. So get out of my sight.A giggle left her." Uuh , how daring," he mocked. Will you throw me holy water too? I warn you that pain does not scare me, quite the contrary. She cheekily bit her lip and I clenched my hands. This girl must definitely have something to do with him, she seemed to be just as crazy.Even so, a feeling of surprise came over me, because I had never entertained the idea that Azazziel could have a mate."You seem to be strong-willed." Anger welled up in me and I scowled at her. She faked a scared expression. When I didn't answer her, she clucked and sighed, as if she'd gotten bored. It's okay, I'll go. Anyway, being around you is horrible. I don't know how he bears it.She pushed away from the wall she w

But a demon wouldn't attack me if I was in a crowded place, right?I began to walk in strides, trying not to bump into other people, trying to get away quickly from there. Mabrax did not seem to be the type to wait patiently to attack, he gave the impression of someone who was carried away by his impulses, just like Azazziel. I soon found myself praying it was my imagination, even though there was no chance of it. She was so sure, she knew the feeling so well, it was impossible. He wasn't even carrying a rosary or a fucking bottle of holy water, so I had nothing to defend myself against a supernatural being.If I ran into one of them now, I was done for.Without realizing it, zigzagging between the streets, I ended up in a sector that I didn't recognize. I already felt the sweat on my forehead and neck due to the physical effort, and the same fear that consumed me. My breathing was too rough. Whatever place I was in, it was much less crowded than before and that worried me even more.

That feeling faded with growing anger.-Who the hell are you? I snapped.He showed no sign of anger at my tone."I'm not from Mabrax, if that's what you think."-So, whose…? I frowned more. The alternative seemed unlikely, but it was all I could think of when she referred to "Him . " Azazziel sent you?He shook his head in another calm nod, showing no emotion at all.An alien disturbance, a complete mix of concussions constricted my chest and made it difficult for me to breathe.The critical look of an elderly lady distracted me. The woman watched me out of the corner of her eye, frowning several times, as she walked away, quickening her pace. I frowned at her. Why the hell did she see me like that?"Sorry, wait," the demon murmured. Without waiting for my answer, he closed his eyes, adopting a very stern expression, and opened them a couple of seconds later. Okay, now people won't believe you're talking to yourself.I felt the blood cover my face from sheer shame, and the anger grew
