She nodded her head and spared Gabriel a glance before walking out of the room.
I turned my head to see Raphael standing by the door.
“I’ll be right back,” I said to Catalina and gently kissed the top of her head before meeting Raphael in the hallway.
The only reason you are alive Raphael is because you helped Gabriel.
Gently I closed the door behind me as Raphael spoke,
“Lilith is alive.”
It wasn’t a question but I nodded my head anyway.
“It seems we have been wrong about you for quite a while.”
Damn Right.
Raphael continued,
“I can not speak for the others but I am sorry Lucifer.”
“You are not the one who sent me into exile.”
“But I sat back while the order was given and for that I am sorry.”
I didn’t know how to respond to him. Raphael was not behind my exile. He did not plot with Micheal or even know about Micheal’s plan but he was right. He sat back and let it happen. He and the others let Micheal and our father send me into exile without questioning it.
“How far out were you able to track Micheal?”
“He was heading West, I would continue the search that way.”
Raphael nodded,
“I will find Micheal, You stay here and help Gabriel and your friend heal.”
“Catalina,” I said, staring into his blue eyes,
“Her name is Catalina.”
“Well then, help Gabriel and Catalina heal, I will send word when Micheal is caught.”
“Thank you Raphael.”
He nodded as he made his way past me towards the staircase,
“You care very deeply about the girl don’t you?”
My posture stiffened as I responded,
“Raphael I have not spoken to you for centuries so forgive me if I am less than forthcoming about the details of my life and the people in them.”
“Watch over her Lucifer, Protect her and keep her safe. She’s going to need you in the upcoming days.”
“What are you saying, Raphael?” I asked, taking a small step forward.
“I am saying that Micheal will not take this lying down, he will come after you and now he knows that you have one weakness.”
I didn’t regret it. Yes, Micheal now knew Gabriel and I’s one soft spot. But I knew we’d both rather die than let Micheal or anyone else harm her.
