“You don’t need to ask for forgiveness, Ray. Never ever.” Lucian comes up beside me, wrapping me in his arms, careful not to squish the babies.

“I know. I just...I’m so happy to be here. I’m so thankful and relieved.” I swallow and lick my lips. The devils all surround me, each taking a moment to hug and kiss me and tell me how much they love me and how important I am.

I could bathe in their love for me forever. I plan to.

“We are too. So let us take care of you. Let us give you everything you deserve. I can’t wait another moment.” Elias kisses my shoulder.

“We’re never letting you go again. We’re going to bring the world together. We don’t have an option. The angelic army wants to reset the universe, but we are going to fight for it. Even if we must give up every realm and coincide on one plane.” Andre speaks for what feels like the first time, the sudden closeness of him igniting something wild in my being. I can feel him on every level. He’s starving for power. He’s starving for me.

“How are we going to do that?” I ask, my nerves bunching my muscles. “Are you sure that’s a good idea? We can take the war to them again. They can’t keep me out of Heaven.”

“We’re going to send every damn dark soul through this portal. Heaven has rejected so many that they don’t stand a chance.” Lucian growls deep in his throat, his power flickering across his skin.

The world rocks under my feet, startling me. I don’t get a chance to react before Dante and Andre lunge for me. Scooping me up, Andre cradles me in his arms as Dante gathers the twins in his. Kase joins him, hanging onto his side and preparing to fight.

“The fuckers had the same idea. We have to move.” Cassius grabs Lucian and Elias lifts up Zade.

Hellfire cascades through the world behind us, and I spot Micah launching a wave of dark souls toward the light flashing around us.

“Move!” he hollers, transforming into his beastly form.

Bending his knees, Andre launches us into the air. My skin buzzes, my new angelic form responding to the intense light of another wave of angelic warriors. Expanding my wings, I force Andre to release me and spin in the air. The warriors don’t stand a chance. Their very beings call to me.

I gather power in my palms and blast it toward the front line of angels.

Silence falls over the world as they crackle and pop like a firework show before us. Their energy steals my breath.

Andre snatches me from the air, diving down.

He drags me into Hell.

Chapter 24

RAVEN

Together Forever

“LET ME GO!” I shout, wriggling and kicking in Andre’s arms. “I can fight. It has to be me!”

Andre runs across the black onyx path outside his palace. It takes me a moment to realize it, but his orgy tornado is nowhere to be seen. What the fuck? It’s quiet as well. Screams don’t rip through the air. It’s unsettling.

He sets me on my feet, folding his wings on his back. I could easily jump up and fly away, but it’s as if something draws me to stay. I know it’s Andre and his desire to protect me. But it is something more than that. I want to find the missing souls.

Except…I know where they are. It’s so strange.

“Raven, look at me.” Andre touches my cheek, drawing my attention to him. “Let me take you inside. We need to wait this out.”

“Where are the others? I thought they were coming with us.” I spin on the balls of my feet, kind of missing that weird-ass tornado orgy. It was entertaining to watch, to say the least. If I were a normal soul and ended up in Hell, I think I would be okay being punished by Andre in his kingdom. I’m a freak like that.

Andre hooks his arm around me. “They had to go to their kingdoms for just a bit. Don’t worry, little hellion. I will take good care of you until they get here. We chose my kingdom for a reason. We weren’t kidding when we said we wanted to be with you. Losing you and your mortal form was the hardest thing I’ve ever faced in my existence. It was even harder than when I fell from grace.”

His words set off something wild inside me. He hits me with a wave of his lust pheromones, turning me on with the simple idea. My brain decides that it will not allow me to think of anything else besides getting pounded by the devils, and I get wet thinking about it. Who knew I wanted it so badly? I thought angels were pretty chaste. Except for Elias. I suppose I did give Andre a blow job when he was an angel. I guess being so close to the mortal world gives them mortal desires. And me? It’s so much more than that.

I’ve always used sex with the devils as a distraction. What better way than to improve my mood with a fucking fantastic time? And the way Andre looks at me now, I might as well be naked. Slowly nodding my head, I turn back toward him and away from where the orgy tornado usually swirls. Without saying a word, I close my wings and tug at the front of my shirt. It is the weirdest fucking thing to have it easily come off and not get caught on my wings. It’s hard for me to remember that I am manifesting myself and my clothes in this moment. I have complete control. Andre looks as if he’s about to take it away from me though. And I want him to. I want him so badly that I can’t wait a second longer.

I rush him and link my fingers to the hem of his shirt, ripping it off his head. Our mouths crash together as lust explodes through me, sending tingles between my legs. Andre growls deep in his throat and lifts me off my feet, breaking from my mouth to kiss my neck and work his way down to where my bra suddenly burns away with his lustful power here. I suck in a breath at the heat crossing my nipples, and Andre takes each one into his mouth, sucking hard enough to send a burst of energy to my core. I arch my back and stretch my torso, wanting him to work his way lower. As if he reads my mind, he lifts me up higher until he positions me with my thighs around his neck. I use my core strength to stay upright and comb my fingers through his hair, holding myself in place as he buries his mouth against the apex of my legs, licking his tongue hard and fast, just needing to get me off. I moan every breath of air. I gasp, squirming and making it a challenge for Andre.

I scream out in ecstasy as Andre brings me to my peak, and I squeeze his head between my thighs as I orgasm. And holy shit. He growls as I light up like a fucking star, but he doesn’t complain as his skin reddens.
