Into The Devil’s Heart

“they are embedded into my back” Audrey explains.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t protect you from him” He apologizes feeling guilty.

“You couldn’t, then but now, you can fight alongside me” Audrey informs.

For the first time since he woke up, a smile forms on his lips, “Yeah, sure!” He was about to take her in for a hug when she pushed him away.

“You stink” She closed her nose with her hands. ” Get some shower before I faint from your nasty smell” She stands up and walks to the door.

Baston frowns and smells himself, he twists his face at the smell that comes out from his body.

” It’s not my fault I stink like trash, I just didn’t have anyone to help clean me up” He complains and climbs off the bed

“Ok, I get… It’s not your fault. Go in there and clean up while I get you clean clothes” Audrey closes the door behind giving him the chance to bathe.

Minutes later, Audrey walks in with a dress and places it on the bed before leaving.

Baston returned from the bath and quickly got dressed. He walks out of the room, Audrey is sitting in the dining. He goes to her

“Here, eat up… We’ve got a lot to do” She pushes the plate of food to him.

Baston looks confused as he stares at the delicious food on the plate, “Where did you get it? I don’t think you can prepare this in the space of minutes”

He points out.

Audrey raises a brow, ” Are you eating or not? ”

Baston quickly grabs the plate of food, ” I will have it”

” Better” Audrey’s lips pull up into a smile. Her eyes linger on his face as he eats, he looks so pale and skinny and for some reason, she feels hurt knowing she’s the cause of his appearance.

“Done!” Baston exclaims, rubbing on his stomach.

It is the first time Audrey has seen him this happy when it comes to food, at first it was like he doesn’t eat.

“Can you fight?” She asked breaking the silence.

“Yeah, that’s what I live for anyways” Baston stands on his feet showing how energies he is for the fight.

Audrey stares at him for a long time, she can tell he isn’t all fit but he doesn’t want to stay behind.

“Give me your hand” She stretches out her hands demanding his

Baston’s frowns, “why? What for?”

Audrey seized his hands and gripped them tight, Baston tried to remove his hand but her grip was too tight.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

“You are way stronger now” he exclaims in awe.

Audrey glanced at his face before looking down at his hands, “that’s because you are too weak” she trial on his veins. A greenish light appears as his veins glow beautifully.

“Stay quiet!” Audrey hushed the talking boy. Baston’s words that seemed to want to leave his mouth got stuck into his mouth.

Minutes later, Baston was changed to a healthy and whole being. His hard jaw and collarbone were nowhere to be seen. He looks like someone who was never bedridden and food-deprived for days.

“Wow, how did you do it?” Baston asked in astonishment.

“Let’s just assume I did it, can’t tell how” Audrey drags him out of the house. They stood outside under the night sky.

“I’m pretty sure you can carry yourself,” Audrey said not looking back at him

“Sure I can, but I’ll be way faster than you” Baston brags, the speed of teleportation is way faster than flying about the sky with wings.

“Good, you go ahead and determine how things are before I’m coming,” Audrey says.

Baston nods in response but later on twists his face, “Where again are we going to?” He asked.

Audrey threw him a hard glare but didn’t say a word.

She walks further ahead to a distance, leaving Baston behind.

He watches her with a twisted face, curious to see what she’s up to. To him, he assumes she’s lying that she has wings, and wants to walk to their destination. He was about to laugh at her when all of a sudden, a large wing popped out of her back startling him. He stumbles two steps behind

His mouth hung wide open as he stared at her beautiful white graceful wings. “Wow!!!” He exclaims in awe of her beauty

Audrey glances back at him one more time, flaps her wings, and flies away into the night sky.

Seeing her with his two eyes, Baston could swear there was nothing like her. Even the angel that was talked about in history doesn’t seem to possess any power as such.

She doesn’t look tainted, the graceful and magnificent heavenly being she is can still be perceived alongside her heavenly glory but, there’s something more.

It’s like oil was added to a wine to change the texture but at some point in time, they seem not to be miscible. Separating the two things that are all in the same container and have become part of that container.

He let out a heavy breath, “I hope you’ll be able to manage this thing inside of you” he murmured to himself and disappeared into thin air.

He arrives at the top of the building, it’s the place where Audrey was sold out and was taken by Cannon. Not long after, Audrey was seen flying from a distance.

She lands next to Baston whose gaze never stops going through the building as he monitors each one leaving the building.

“He’s inside!” He informs.

Audrey didn’t utter a word, she stayed silently listening to the conversation going on inside.

“How willing are you to take lives and shared blood?” She asked Baston but one would say she was talking to herself

Baston let out a chuckle, ” Funny how you are asking me this… That should be my line ”

” I will assume you are more than ready, now, let’s move! ” The speed Audrey used to leave the rooftop made Baston blink again, she was so fast.

The next second seeing her, three guys were already lying dead on the floor. Audrey stands so graceful with her giant wings. Looking at her now, there’s no way one will accept she killed those men.

Audrey turns and looks at the rooftop where Baston is, that’s the signal he was waiting for… Without delaying any further, Baston vanished into thin air and the next second he was standing next to Audrey.

” Those who cause a drop of tear to run down my cheek will live not to see their” Audrey enters the building at the speed of light, Baston follows behind not holding back himself.
