Into The Devil’s Heart

Audrey finds herself in a lonely and silent place void of any sign of life. She wonders if she is in the right place.

She walks further, following the tiny path. Not long after, she starts getting sounds of people chattering. She knew she was in the right place so long as she wasn’t the only one there.

She pulls back her wings into her shoulder blades and steps out of the narrow path. She was welcomed by the sight of so many people going back and forth doing their things.

It was as if it was another place like Earth, no, it’s as if it’s a place on Earth. The people she is staring at look no different from ordinary normal beings.

They chat and talk, laugh and play. Children running back and forth.

“This can’t be hell” she whispered under her breath unsure if she was in the right place.

“Hi Ms, wanna buy some?” A man pops up in front of her offering a gold necklace for sale. “Very affordable, just the way you like it” he winks at her

“No, thanks” Audrey quickly denies and takes a different direction.

“You don’t look like someone I know but your beauty does” a brown-haired guy spoke out, walking next to her.

Audrey was stunned by his approach, “you can’t know everyone”

His lips pull up into a smile, “It is, here, I am the overall seer of everyone and everything.” He points out. “And you, are a newbie here”

Audrey pretend as though she didn’t hear him, all she wants is to locate where hell is. She wants to meet her Cannon, only then will she be satisfied.

“Zain…!” He tells his name.

Audrey wasn’t with him, her eyes darting around the place hoping to get a clue.

He noticed her and quickly asked, “Looking for someone or something?”

Audrey pauses and turns to him, maybe she can use his help. It’s not like she knows someone who will help her.

“Yeah, actually, I’m looking for the direction to hell” She turns to him, not caring if she sounds weird or not.

Zain’s lips pull up into a smile, “You in hell” he informs.

Audrey frowns, “This is hell?” She asked.

Zain nods, “yeah, what were you expecting to see?”

Audrey paused for a while before saying, “A place of endless flame as people burn in it” She said in all honesty.

Zain let out a deep chuckle, “Indeed, there is a place like that in hell but that’s meant for filthy humans who think they are better than us”

” The people you see here are demons and demoness alongside the kids too… We are all descendants of the devils” he with so much pride that one could think it’s a privilege to be one.

Audrey nods, “But why aren’t they with horns? ” She doesn’t understand why they look so normal when normally they are supposed to be ugly.

Zain couldn’t help but laugh, ” You don’t expect us to walk with a true self, do you?”

“here, only demons of high ranks have horns and the devils are included as they are the true rulers. ” He explains.

“do you have one? ” Audrey asked.

His smile fades a little, ” Well, I hope it gets one soon… It comes in accordance to how long you have lived as a demon, but most of the time, it comes from heritage ” he explains.

He turns to her, ” I see you aren’t dead yet” he points out.

Audrey quickly adjusted, if he could sense her still being alive, he might as well sense who she truly was.

” Huh? You think? ” She faces a confused face.

” I know” Zain announced.” Everything about you says it all.

Audrey gulps, searching for the nearest place to run and hide.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

“Maybe” she mutters under her breath. Her eyes caught an empty spot perfect for her escape. She was about to run away when a huge man stepped in and blocked her path

“Dad? What are you doing here?” Zain asked.

Audrey glanced up and was welcomed by a deep red-eyed man staring down at her, she could tell he was a demon of high rank from the aura that surrounded him.

Abigor didn’t respond to Zain, his gaze never left Audrey, “what are you doing here?” He demands, voices deep and rocky

Audrey turns to Zain thinking the question is for him, but he surprises her the more as he calls out to her

“I’m talking to you, angel” he points out. Zain frowns not understanding what’s going on.

He stares at Audrey and then his father in confusion, “Angel? ” He sounds surprised.

Abigor turns to Zain, “Don’t tell me you’ve been making acquaintance with the enemy? ” He barks.

Audrey knew from there that there was nothing to hide anymore.

” I’m sorry, but your dad is telling the truth “Audrey affirms to Abigor’s words.

Zain is way more surprised than ever, ” you? Angel?” He chuckles, “Never! ” He still couldn’t believe it even though Audrey had accepted.

Abigor wasn’t in for talks, in the blink of an eye, things changed from the normal small-looking village with normal people to the hell Audrey had been imagining only this time, there wasn’t a burning fire.

All the people now look different with funny-looking scary faces and white eyes.

Large black wings spread out of Abigor’s back, a horn pops out of his forehead and his face changes to a scary-looking animal-like face.

He flaps his wings and flies up to the dark sky looking down at his minions and speaking out

“People of hell, sons of Baal, daughters of Lilith, descendants of Asmodeus, and minions of the seven devil Lords, today, we are honored with a guest from heaven, sent to spy on us ” He announced, murmurs could be heard, every demon/demoness curious to know who the intruder is.

“It’s been long since we were given the honor to host a heavenly being and we are happy to give our host a perfect stay in hell, aren’t we?” He said and the crowd answered in response

“Yes, we are”

“Pardon me asking, my Lord but who is the intruder?” A demon asked from the crowd.

“The only being who smells like a human” Abigor informs.

All eyes fell on Audrey the instant she was pointed out, their fangs elongated and they sneered at her hungrily, eager to devour her

Seeing that there was no escape, Audrey had no choice but to fight the moment a demon launched at her

Her wings popped out of her back, it was as white as snow and as pure as a dove but, something had changed. There were two feathers of different colors on each of her wings, gold, and black color feathers.

She carries the demon that attacked her up, she doesn’t give it a second thought as she plunges her Long nails into his chest, and pulls out his heart before letting him fall to the ground.

For low-class demons, the easiest way to kill them is to crush their hearts while for high-rank demons, the easiest way to kill them is to stab them directly in the spine around the neck area

Her burst of power left everyone stunned, never had they seen an angel kill without batting an eye. And most importantly, the lady they are seeing now smells different from how angels do.

Her blood-red piercing eyes, fangs, and animalistic nails show off her demon side but her wings’ majestic aura show how heavenly she is. The most surprising thing is, that the different colors of feathers on her wings indicate more than they have ever seen.

Abigor felt threatened by the side of the girl who now looked like a God before him.

“Kill her!!!” He roars in anger. He feels belittled by her just by her presence.

The demon/demoness sneers at her and is about to launch an attack when the wall by the side breaks down all of a sudden and Baston pops out with large black wings, a three-inch horn on his forehead, and deep red eyes.

“You are dead, if you dare touch a strand on her body!” His deep voice resonates with so much authority. Everyone was as stunned as Audrey, surprised to see him in that form.
