CHAPTER FIFTEEN : The Angel-Hunter
The stars dimmed that night.
Somewhere between Heaven’s gates and Earth’s edge, something tore through the sky —28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGcGFN1PBh
A shimmer of light laced with death.
He had no name.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0olxBSQDXy
Only titles.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITA9f3iuEF
Heaven’s Blade. Seraph of Judgment. The Angel-Hunter.
His mission wasn’t to bring Lilith home.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PDFZT9VEQ
It was to erase the mistake she made.
Down below, Daniel stirred in his sleep.
His chest burned again, the divine mark reacting like it knew what was coming.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAQWKb6kmp
Lilith sat beside him, her wings stretched halfway —28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGo8oq6Kdi
not in pride, but in defense.
“They sent him.”28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vJgHBlC5g
She could barely say it.
The Angel-Hunter stepped into their world without sound.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYrohRxy48
Golden hair. Silver armor. A face like marble.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9koR7WivHz
But his eyes? Hollow.
“You stained him,” he told her.
Lilith stepped in front of Daniel.
“He chose me.”
The Seraph’s gaze flicked past her.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx86W6NkEkl
“Then he’ll die for that choice.”
Daniel woke up with a gasp.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Q6sMOjUMA
The air grew thin, as if Heaven itself was watching.
“Who—?”28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtAbb9JGqq
But the words left him as the Seraph raised a blade made of pure starlight.
Lilith attacked first.
Not like a demon. Not like a monster.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPd4GphwEvE
But like a lover protecting the last piece of her soul.
Their battle tore the trees. Burned the air.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX9Ko44KYJ
Blood — silver and black — painted the earth.
But the Seraph wasn’t here for her.
He vanished mid-strike, reappearing behind Daniel.
“You shouldn’t exist.”
The blade pierced Daniel’s shoulder.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8SGHRWUwD
He screamed — not in pain, but fury.
And then...
Something broke.
Not bones. Not soul.
Reality.
Daniel’s blood sizzled into the ground, turning gold to ash.
His hands, glowing. His voice, deeper.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9Ri8acjnp
Something inside him rose.
A fusion of her damnation and his purity.
“You can’t erase me,” Daniel growled.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd7KxMzZyS
“I am the consequence.”
He hurled the Seraph back with a force that cracked the clouds.
Lilith ran to him.
“Daniel…”
But his eyes weren’t human anymore.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnmowE7MqC
Nor angelic. Nor demonic.
They were his own.
The Seraph fled — not out of fear, but out of confusion.
Heaven hadn’t prepared him for this.
Not for a love that birthed something new.
“They’ll send more,” Lilith whispered.
Daniel looked up, blood dripping down his cheek, a smirk forming.
“Let them.”
