Chapter 184: Fuck. That. Shit

I couldn’t remember the dream that I was having... all I remembered was that I was screaming out names in pleasure when it felt like I had been drenched in icy water.

Sitting bolt upright in bed, I knocked Chang Xuefeng’s arm off of me as I struggled to get out of the blankets. Like the first time I had spent seven days in here, I put all the crappy furniture in my space and brought out a massive bed, big enough for the four of us.

However, my nightmare and the ’man’witch I had found myself in wasn’t enough to account for the feeling of pure terror that overcame me.

"G--- o—t," called out Luci’s voice inside my head. "R---n."

I didn’t know if I was feeling her fear because of our connection or if her fear was emphasizing my own, but I was practically vibrating.

"Mon Ange?" grunted Dante, struggling to sit up. "What’s going on?"

"You can’t feel it?" I demanded. Looking down at my arms, all of the tiny hairs on my body were standing upright. "Something is coming."

"I don’t feel anything," grunted Chang Xuefeng with a shake of his head. "Can you tell me more?"

I didn’t know how much it meant to me that he believed me instead of shooting me down until right this moment. And if I weren’t so freaked out, I definitely would have given him a reward. But that was going to have to wait until later.

First, I had to figure out what Luci was trying to tell me.

"Get out now!" she screamed at me, her voice echoing around my mind like the echo was bouncing off the inside of my skull. She was so loud that I couldn’t hold back my scream of pain as I cupped my head, trying to keep it together. "Run!!"

"We need to get out," I whimpered, feeling blood pouring out of my eyes and my ears. "We need to get to the others."

Considering that Luca, Dimitri, and the others weren’t anywhere close by, I could feel my chest squeezing as another panic attack threatened to pull me under.

"Fuck this," I snarled, wiping my eyes with the back of my hand. I didn’t care that I was getting blood everywhere; I just needed to be able to see. "I don’t have time for this shit."

Ignoring the pain, the blood, and the worried looks from the men around me, I rose unsteadily to my feet. Taking in a deep breath, I snapped my fingers and brought the bed back into my space. Biting the inside of my cheek until I could taste blood, I locked my knees in and straightened my back.

Right, Luci said that shit was going to hit the fan. Maybe this was what she was talking about. What exactly did she say? Humans and angles will be affected the most. Okay... who was human... who was angel... who was mine?

"I’m neither; if that helps," grunted Chang Xuefeng as he stood behind me to take my weights. It was then that I realized that I must have been talking out loud. Letting my gaze brush over Dante, I remembered the name he had first called me when he woke up.

"Pride," I sighed when he nodded his head. "Human?" I asked, looking at Tank. However, Tank shook his head. "Nope. Whatever is happening, I have your back without worries. I’m a demon through and through."

"Sin?" I asked. It seemed that I was down to only one word sentences until my body stopped freaking out.

"Hound," he answered. "I’m warmer and more fun to cuddle with. You’re welcome."

A painful smile flitted across my face as I nodded my head. "Gluttony," I continued. Gluttony was the next one who was closest to me. "Where is Gluttony?"

Huh, look at me forming full sentences.

"Hurry up!" hissed Luci. "You don’t have time for this shit. Get outside and get away from everyone. Disappear. The others will have to find you later, but you can’t stay there!"

"What’s going on?" I demanded, wishing that I could just pop into wherever she was and get the answers that I needed. But clearly, that was too easy.

"Demons are escaping. It’s the mosquito upgrade. Look for a red rain. That is their powers falling to the Earth. Humans who don’t have powers will be possessed. Those who do should be safe... for tonight," snarled Luci, and for a brief second, I saw her in her throne room facing off against 50 demons.

With absolutely no powers.

"Luci!!" I screamed, trying to get out of Chang Xuefeng’s arms so that I could go and save her. Without the piece of her soul that was now inside me, she didn’t stand a chance.

"It was nice to meet you," she smiled, tears turning her eyes shiny as she stared down the demons with her head held high. "I’m sorry that we don’t have more time. But if anyone was going to step into my shoes, I am so glad that it is you. Don’t go easy on the Sins; do what makes you happy. You deserve it more than anyone I know."

As soon as she had finished speaking, a clawed hand pierced through her ribs. Unable to scream or breathe, she simply smiled as the tears finally fell from her eyes. When the green claw retracted, it held Luci’s heart in its hand.

"The Devil is dead! Hell is no more!"

There was a resounding cheer from all the demons around the Greed demon as he opened his mouth and took a chunk out of Luci’s heart.

The vision inside my head went blank as my body gave out on me. The only thing keeping me upright was Chang Xuefeng’s arm around my waist. Tears racked my body as I struggled to breathe. It wasn’t fair!

Why did Luci have to go through all that?!? She was the one who created them; she was the one who gave them a home... and what? They decided for shits and giggles to turn on her?!?

FUCK. THAT. SHIT.
