CHAPTER FIFTEEN : The Angel-Hunter
The stars dimmed that night.
Somewhere between Heaven’s gates and Earth’s edge, something tore through the sky —11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFv1fVjcBni
A shimmer of light laced with death.
He had no name.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoacwwEQ9k
Only titles.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgaDAenRic
Heaven’s Blade. Seraph of Judgment. The Angel-Hunter.
His mission wasn’t to bring Lilith home.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3J7lDbVWvd
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.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jzlrBs5c7
Lilith sat beside him, her wings stretched halfway —11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSD1080uv8
not in pride, but in defense.
“They sent him.”11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhfeojlI4n
She could barely say it.
The Angel-Hunter stepped into their world without sound.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoIdL0nXRp
Golden hair. Silver armor. A face like marble.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0LvE6hI0Y
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.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9OjFIyv0G
“Then he’ll die for that choice.”
Daniel woke up with a gasp.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH2GZ4JZBX
The air grew thin, as if Heaven itself was watching.
“Who—?”11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4l0iLITdlb
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.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqxhLH6rzn
But like a lover protecting the last piece of her soul.
Their battle tore the trees. Burned the air.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoSkUxucPY
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.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb46P6XY0g
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.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDuuGDcZmT
Something inside him rose.
A fusion of her damnation and his purity.
“You can’t erase me,” Daniel growled.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtnFLT76Hv
“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.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlS35FfcpYF
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.”
