“Be fucking ready. I’m going to get fucking blasted. I’ll run as far as I can to give you clearance.” Lucian rams his horns into the doorframe, breaking through part of the wall without bending down. “Someone is going to fucking owe me for this.”

“Fuck right we will. This is your fault.” Kase whips him on the back with his tail. “If anything, you’re going to fucking owe us.”

“Blowjobs!” Raven says, her word coming out far sexier and breathy than she realizes. “You’re blowing every single devil and swallowing their damn loads.”

Lucian growls and flares his nostrils. “You’d love that.”

“I’d love getting the fuck out of here alive even more.” Raven swings the fire chain, smacking it across the floor. “So prove your damn power already.”

Backing up, Lucian gives himself space and flexes his muscles. He extends his hands and blasts fire at the wall, choosing to break it open instead of using the window. The angelic army would expect us to use the easier approach, so this should give us the chance we need.

Kase runs behind him, preparing to attack the second he has an opening, and I nudge Raven to get ready, acting as a shield to her back.

The wall explodes, sending smoke, fire, and debris raining through the air around us. Raven sucks in a deep breath and jets forward, staying just a few feet behind Kase. I expect to see a thousand warriors lined up and ready to blast us all to Hell. I expect the world to break open and for guardians and saviors to push us into the pits.

Unnerving silence greets us.

Lucian spins, blasting power toward the sky anyway.

“What the fuck,” Raven says, her voice a whisper.

I push her between the shoulder blades. “Keep moving.”

Bright light flashes through the sky above us, and Lucian and Kase both blast power at an angel that crosses in between planes, trying to fuck with us. They’re here, but we can’t see them unless they want to reveal themselves. To hurt us, they’d have to do the same.

Something’s up, and I fucking brace for the worst.

Another angel breaks between planes, and once again, Lucian and Kase attack.

“Raven, you have ten seconds.” Cassius thumps down in front of us, wielding his flaming sword. His amethyst eyes sparkle with his heavenly light. “I can’t let you do this.”

Peeking at me over her shoulder, Raven crinkles her nose in a frown. “Get him to the circle,” she mouths, sending a burst of pain right to my middle with her words. I don’t like the look in her eyes, but I can’t stop her. She’s going to do what she thinks is best, and I trust her.

I nod without a word.

Raising her hands, Raven says, “I surrender. Please, just let me say goodbye to my devils. Please.”

Cassius’s hard features soften. “To Dante only.”

Raven fakes a cry and swivels toward me. “I love you. You need to trust me, okay?”

My mouth dries at her words. “Always, pretty soul.”

“Then run!” Jerking back around, Raven swings the fire whip, slashing it across Cassius’s chest. His eyes widen and he automatically raises his hands protectively. Raven launches at him, jabbing the chain into his neck, pinning him down.

I don’t wait to see what happens. I use the chance to do what she asks. Flapping my wings, I race forward and toward the summoning circle. Micah growls and shouts, waving his hands, pointing behind me.

Tossing Elias to him, I spin and spit venom, getting an angel right in the face. But two more materialize and blast me with power. Then another and another. I can’t do anything as heavenly light engulfs me, burning my skin and eating away at my being. The ground shakes beneath my feet, and I holler, unable to control my voice as I sink down.

Raven screams out, punching Cassius and then scrambling away.

But the angelic power is too much for me.

The world shifts and Hell opens up.

I fall into my kingdom.
