She’s trying though and I can be here to help her find that spark again.

“You’re still a little rusty but still doing better than before.” I chuckled and continued,
“Maybe you’ll beat me.”
She had improved over the last few months with Lucifer helping her but today, today was different. She hadn’t spoken at all and when we sparred she was different. When she was on the offensive it was like she was giving into every vengeful and hateful thought she had. Unyielding. A volatile force to be reckoned with. Yet when she was on the defense, it was as if she didn’t care if she went down. She hadn’t even tried to dodge some of my moves.
“Lucifer and I had a deal in the beginning.”
I clenched my jaw. The last thing I wanted was to talk about him. Especially around her.
“Do we really need to talk about him right now?”
Catalina ignored my comment and continued,
“Lucifer might be gone but I want the same deal from you. Training for information.”
I opened my mouth to object but Catalina cut me off,
“Look I know something happened between you two and I want to know what.”
“Catalina I am your friend and all I am doing is protecting you.”
She squared her shoulder as her gaze locked on mine, the slight orange peering through,
“Lucifer was my friend too.”
Don’t say that.
“Lucifer told me about the vision from the Fates about how I have Hellfire.”
Catalina glanced at me again,
“I know you and Lucifer are hiding something from me.”
Before I could even respond, To try and get her to understand, he appeared.
Impeccable fucking timing.

Catalina’s POV
Gabriel didn’t even have time to answer me as the tall male with large white wings dropped from the sky. His eyes were as silver as the dagger in my hand. His skin was pale as if he had never seen the sun, and his silver hair matched his eyes paired together with the sharp angles of his face. A masterpiece come to life. He was utterly terrifying yet beautiful all at once.
“Who the hell are you?”
“Catalina, this is my brother, Micheal,” Gabriel said as he slightly inched closer to me as Micheal approached us.
“You’re early, you weren’t supposed to be here until tomorrow.”
Micheal chuckled, his voice deep as he answered,
“Arriving unexpectedly makes for a more elaborate entrance and I do aim to impress.”
Early? Early for what?
