have” he told me and my body shivered and not in a bad way in answer to his words.
“That’s great” I pointedly told him “who’s that bitch that invaded my dreams and then tried to kill me?” I demanded “oh and thanks for the save” I add.
“Eve” he stated and I could see him shut down to me in his stiffness of his stance and set of his shoulder and the blank expression now plastered on his face.
Again we silently watched each other, my wing flared and stretched catching his attention before they stilled once again.
“Is what she said true?” I ask him.
“Yes”
“Why? For them stupid shitty answers that Eve gave.” I said “oh and is she the Eve?”
“Yes and no Eve was named after her” he replied.
“Oh” I looked down at my feet my whole body tired aching and defeated.
“Is there anything we can do to stop this” I begged not looking up at him. To be honest I didn’t think he was going to answer me until he put his finger under my chin and lifted my head so our eyes was locked to one another again. “There is always a way Lily” he replied and gently brushed his lips against mine. I closed my eyes and lost myself to the feel of this man, his lips lifted mine.
“Why are you here with me?” I asked before I could stop the words from leaving my mouth.” why have you always been with me?”
“I don’t know” he simply replied and I felt him leave. I opened my eyes and he was gone. A shiver ran through my whole body making me aware of my surrounding once again. I look around quickly and jumped back up to my window to step back into my bedroom and closed the window behind me. I got back into bed and fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow I dream of greenest eyes I’ve ever seen.


I opened my eyes to my bedroom being flooded with day light. I look across to the clock that told me it was mid morning. I raised myself looking at my arms to see that my skin was still slightly discoloured from the bruises Eve had given me. I washed and dressed quickly and mentally called Luc.
I just made my way down to the country style kitchen; however at least it was equipped with all the modern compliances. Luc walked through the door. I had dressed in sweat pants and a hoody to keep my battered body hidden from Luc as he tends to over react sometimes especially if I‘m injured. I sat him down and went over the events that had happened whilst I had slept. I didn’t tell him about mine and Jonah meeting afterwards it just felt to personal to repeat. Plus it never good to let your family know your lusting after the enemy.
“What do you think?” I ask once I’d finished.
“I think the shit has hit the fan” he said with a smile.
I rolled my eyes and silently agreed with him. I go and wrap my arms round my brother wanting the physical comfort, but secretly wishing that it was another set of arms holding me. I pulled away from him and poured us both a mug of coffee.
“Should we tell them?” I ask him knowing he knew who I meant.
“No” he answers “we got no proof, no Eve or Jonah, we got nothing we should wait and see if they appear again to you or maybe both of us”
“Fine” I agree.
“They want to see us” Luc informed me “ready” he then grabs my hand as I nod and we teleport to moms cave. Great I thought they better not be doing what we caught them doing last time I thought to myself. Luc must have guessed my thoughts as he was chuckling away and wrapped his arm around my shoulder giving them a quick squeeze before dropping his arms. Our parents were sat waiting for us, which is unusual. As we entered they both stood in greeting. Luc frowned at me also noticing the odd behaviour.
“Is everything ok here?” I ask looking at both of my parents.
“Yes love” our mother said and hugged us both to her. “His being an idiot angel again” with that she disappeared leaving a smoke trail behind her.
“up set mom again then dad” Luc said as he smiled at me, dad turned his back to us, I imagine getting his temper under control and yes you guessed right its another angel thing as they are to remain calm and peaceful at all times.
He turned back to face him, “I need you both to go and clear out another nest” he states. I looked at him, really looked and he still seamed off he looked back at me but quickly looked away from me as if he couldn’t meet my eyes, his hiding something I mused.
While I was lost in my musing Luc must have agreed to go because dad was gone in the next instance.
“Where we off to then” I ask.
“About 10 miles out of London, and not far from the factory from yesterday.
“Ok one second” I concentrate on my clothing and imagine my normal leather trousers and vest top but with long sleeves to keep my bruises covered. I felt my power flare over my body and looked down to see that my joggers and hoody were gone to replaced by my combat gear.
“Cold?” he asked noticing the change of outfit from vest to long sleeve which would be my usual choice.
“Shut up” I reply. Grinning we teleport to our next job.


We shifted to the corner of the factory to witness Eve having totally butchered everyone in the building. The machines were still powered up as the engines continued to work in the deserted factory. There was piles of ash which were vampires remains, there were also human body parts scattering the room. It looked like they had been ripped apart, there was blood everywhere. I kill for a living and blood and dead bodies have not bothered me in a long time, but this was brutal, I felt sick. Luc had gone stiff beside me and I could feel the anger radiating off him. We must have stood there for a second to long, as Eve swung round suddenly to face us.
We stepped out of the darkened corner to face our probable death if Eve had her way and I knew from my meeting with her last night in my dream we were seriously out classed.
Side by side we faced her. “Hi” I acknowledged her.
“Well well, there are two of you precious dears” she said ignoring my greeting.
“Yeah well you never asked last night” I reply.
“You want to show me some respect you pathetic creature” she hissed.
“We’re at name calling now” I told Luc who had yet to say or do anything.
“Your on your own this time, you little bitch so I suggest you shut your mouth Lily” she was livid.
“Do not speak to my sister like that” Luc quietly snarled at Eve.
“Sister” she repeated a slight sense of doubt entered her voice for a second before being replaced for her usual tone. “No matter”
At that the ground began to shake learning my lesson I took flight with Luc a second behind me. But instead wind hit us causing us to fall back to the floor. “Their elementals” I sent the thought to my brother who answered aloud. “No shit”
We both got to our feet and split Luc to the left and I was to the right, Luc signalled me forward and I attacked with my sword only to be deflected away with a sword of her own. Luc joined in and all three of us danced, thrusting, slicing and blocking no one was getting the upper hand. Eve broke the stalemate by slicing my arm and Luc temper broke causing him to make a mistake and resulted in him being blown across the room.
“Again I am impressed, you have done better than I thought you were going to do” Eve informed me as she turned her full attention towards me. I glance over her shoulder to see my brother out cold but still alive.
“No witty come back or juvenile remark” she enquires.
“No sorry” and I shrug my shoulder.
She stalked forward and unleashed her real skill on me letting me know she had only being playing with us. Within moments my sword was out my hand and she had got her hand round my neck pressing me up against the wall.
“Now you die” she then thrust her sword through my stomach till it hit the wall behind me and she dragged it out twisting it as it came slowly out of me, the twisting would increase my suffering and make the pain worse. I fell to my knees I pressed my hand to my wound. I could feel the wet hot blood seep through my clothing and between my fingers to pool beneath me as she stood above laughing down at me
“Told you there was no one to help you this time” she laughed again.
I looked over at my brother and so did she. My body trembled with pain and I knew I was going to pass out soon from blood loss but I wasn’t going to give her the satisfaction of seeing me scream in pain, I clamped my jaw tight and remained silent.
“I was only told to get rid of you as you’re the trouble maker. I might play with him awhile before I get around to the killing part. What do you think?” she asked.
My heart screamed no but I remained silent knowing that she wanted a reaction. In disappointed because of my silence or in punishment she gave me a swift kick to the side of my face causing pain to bloom all over the right side of my face and blood to drip from my now
