be yours.”
The smile that bloomed on his face would have put the most brilliant flower to shame.
“And I would be yours, Angel,” he replied. “For as long as I may fly.”
Was this lust, that sin to which she had been assigned? Was this love, that virtue she had aspired to all her time in the Light?
It didn’t matter. It was whatever it was, and she was grateful for it.
She was grateful for him—Samael, Lucifer, Satan, whichever name he chose.
He took to the air, and when he was level with the top of Heaven’s gates, he turned to face her. Radiant, he opened his arms wide.
Flying high, the angel reached up to him.
Together, they soared.
