CHAPTER FIFTEEN : The Angel-Hunter
The stars dimmed that night.
Somewhere between Heaven’s gates and Earth’s edge, something tore through the sky —5Please respect copyright.PENANAxswvYI46Fx
A shimmer of light laced with death.
He had no name.5Please respect copyright.PENANAfAOsSbm4BK
Only titles.5Please respect copyright.PENANABVPycG52KY
Heaven’s Blade. Seraph of Judgment. The Angel-Hunter.
His mission wasn’t to bring Lilith home.5Please respect copyright.PENANAeMqIjb3UQZ
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.5Please respect copyright.PENANApPY2y86ugE
Lilith sat beside him, her wings stretched halfway —5Please respect copyright.PENANAVk6TQmRm99
not in pride, but in defense.
“They sent him.”5Please respect copyright.PENANAJakSd4mtoE
She could barely say it.
The Angel-Hunter stepped into their world without sound.5Please respect copyright.PENANArFOAqBPtGG
Golden hair. Silver armor. A face like marble.5Please respect copyright.PENANAD02PByN8zq
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.5Please respect copyright.PENANA8PGkbXPwef
“Then he’ll die for that choice.”
Daniel woke up with a gasp.5Please respect copyright.PENANAzL7FxXtzV9
The air grew thin, as if Heaven itself was watching.
“Who—?”5Please respect copyright.PENANA8aZ98yBGqx
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.5Please respect copyright.PENANAQv7nDQtHeQ
But like a lover protecting the last piece of her soul.
Their battle tore the trees. Burned the air.5Please respect copyright.PENANAZVe3FMrWti
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.5Please respect copyright.PENANAy4v2HUYDij
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.5Please respect copyright.PENANAMzvG6jXV76
Something inside him rose.
A fusion of her damnation and his purity.
“You can’t erase me,” Daniel growled.5Please respect copyright.PENANAycBISA3QkS
“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.5Please respect copyright.PENANAh0Rc19j94d
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.”
