- I do not know. However, I have the impression that she's still here.
Oliver looked around. There was nothing but the rain, which was becoming stronger. They were soaking wet, but did not care. The wing feathers were waterproof and that was enough. Anyway, the only thing they were thinking about was how to find Alice.
You woke up. Welcome back.
Alice was lying in bed in his old home, where he lived with his family before everything happening in her life. She sat up and touched his old sheet. Really was there, where ever thought they would.
Is speechless, does not it?
He smiled at her.
- Can I ask you something?
Whatever you want.
- Who are you?
He looked at her deeply, enveloping with his scarlet wings again.
- My name is Raziel.
It was the first time that Raziel moved his lips to speak with her. The voice was the same but looked different.
- Raziel?
- Yes.
- So we're both ...
He smiled.
- I am very happy to be a part of you.
Even knowing what he really wanted, she could not feel fear. Raziel was affectionate and gentle all the time.
- What happened? You seem sad.
- It's just ... I'm worried about Oliver and Connor.
Raziel showed a pained look at her and leaned his forehead on hers.
- Do not worry about anything, they're fine, trust me. Just ... Just ...
- What?
- Just stay with me. I know how to take care of you, how to make you smile. I will never betray you, never.
For a moment she saw in him some resemblance to Oliver. The hoarse and urgent voice of Raziel resembled that of another angel, which made her miss and guilt. He tightened the hug and she could smell the lavender coming from him. It was the same smell of Oliver.
- Raziel.
- Yes?
- I need to go back, I have to know how they are.
- Why you can not forget it? I Love You, Alice Blade. I love you in a way that no one else will love you.
Oliver was an exception, she thought. Since when did you meet him, he always treated her with a fatherly love that went beyond expectations. He always took care of her and never tired of it. Even after being with him for so long bitterness, he tried to improve things. Oliver never gave her. He was always ready for anything. When he was ill, the Angel was always beside her.
Connor, in a way, also had a certain affection for her, however, love the way it was peculiar. He did not treat her as sweetly as Oliver did or Raziel was doing now, however, before disappearing, Alice saw that he was concerned with the following seconds.
They were trying to protect her from something, but what? Yes, how could you forget? Raziel was there and it was tough with the fact that she comes back to see them. He wanted him, wanted the power that was within her back to him. It was nothing but a farce, but a farce that seemed authentic. The eyes that were overflowing emotions, the way he treated her, it did not seem to be untrue. There could be a lie. Angels do not lie, right?
- She has to be here.
- How are you sure? Why would she come here?
- She would not come on their own, I know, but Raziel could well bring it here. Here they would not be bothered.
Oliver shuddered at the idea while Connor twisted nose, with deep disgust. If she was weak, he thought, then all would be lost at that moment. Alice had not much time to decide who she would be. There were only a few minutes and he knew Raziel try everything to keep it under his guard until that time is up.
- Connor, what do we do after that? She will have to stay with one of us, right?
- That we may then solve. What matters now is know if she will have the strength to resist or not.
