The Horrors of Hell Part 2

What had I wished for yesterday in his arms? Oh yeah that it would get better... Did it? No of course it didn’t because things weren’t supposed to get better for angels in a demon’s territory. I cuddled to Marcel feeling his warmth spread across me...Demons were warmer than angels since the spent there time in Hell. I sighed and buried my face into his shoulder and started crying... He stirred and wrapped his arm around me and pulled me closer to him. I sighed and got out from under his arm and snuck away... he would never know I was gone.

A Month Later

I was too far to go back into the demon territory. There was no way for me to get back until it was time for me to go back home. I sighed and looked at the ground... Where was Marcel? What was he up to?

No forget about him Isabella! You don’t need to think of him... you have a mission to do so get it done! And then maybe I could see him...

No! You can never see that demon again unless you kill him, imprison him, or he turns back. I sighed. That was very true... Those were all factors. Why did he have to leave me? Why? Wait had it mixed up... I had left him the second time and the first time I had just been mad...What was up with me all of a sudden? All I cared about anymore was him... I could care less about my mission...

Maybe I should turn into a demon... Go and find him and we can be together forever.... No! I could never do that... that would break both of our hearts not to mention that of my people... I sighed as I kept walking down my dark path... the sun had set long ago so I walked down the dark road hoping not to hear anything that I did not wish to hear.

Suddenly there was a new noise and I froze then bounded into the bushes hiding as I heard the voices passed... one of them sounded familiar. I suddenly knew who it was... it was Marcel! I took in a deep breathe quickly hoping he would not hear or smell me...

“Damn it Isabella where the hell are you?” he said saying some more vulgar words that I could not believe came out of his mouth. Was that part of the gig? Become a demon and cuss your head off?

“Oh my Marcel,” I whispered as tears started coming down my cheeks... I did not realize I had sobbing until his strong arms came around me and hugged me to his big chest... I buried my head into his chest and cried as his grip tightened around me. He kissed the top of my head as I cried.

“Oh Isabella,” he whispered before he started kissing my neck... he was trying to calm me down and I was trying to let him. “Why did you leave me Isa?”

I looked up at him and then at his chest then back up to his glorious gorgeous face... I could not lie to him... I broke down even more and cried harder. “I could not stay Marcel! I had to leave... I have a mission!”

“And what is this mission that you keep talking about huh? You have never told me what it was!” he yelled at me scaring me... I tried to back away but his grip did not loosen... I whimpered scared of him and suddenly he let go altogether and took a step back looking a bit disgusted by himself.

“Marcel, “I whispered taking a step towards him with my hand out... he moved back and shook his head clearly mad at himself. I sighed and took a step towards him with my hand stretched towards him and he didn’t try to move...I touched his arm and then fell into his arms crying.

“Shh Isa,” he whispered to me... His voice like a beautiful tenor... it drew me to him... I got on my toes and kissed him gently as he pulled me closer to him...

“Marcel... I am so sorry I can not tell you what the mission is or what it is about...But I do love you and I want you to know that and that I am so sorry for leaving you without a note or anything... that was stupid of me,” I explained to him sighing and looking at my feet.

I sighed as I felt a hand on my cheek and pulled my face up. He made me look into his blue eyes making me lost again... “Do not worry my love,” he mumbled before pressing his lips to mine and bringing me closer to him. Why did he make me melt so in his arms? I felt like I was his and nothing else could have me except him... And that it would be that way forever... we were connected... I broke away from his lips and took a few steps back...

“What is it Isabella?” he asked me as he took a step forward and gently touched my face kissing my palm. “You can tell me.” I looked into his bright eyes and sighed looking at my feet again...

“Marcel...” I began thinking about this... Should I really talk to him about my fears? My hopes? Or should I keep them inside of my bottled up forever and ever? I sighed again. “Just never mind Marcel... forget about it please.”

“But Isa if we are going to be together we need to talk... Actually you know what just whatever it might be safer for both us if we don’t do too much talking,” he said sighing seeming like he didn’t want it but he knew it was true.... I looked over near where the sun would have usually been going down but it neither rose nor fell here and it never would.

I suddenly felt tired so I looked around me then laid down on the cool, wet grass and fell asleep but not before feeling Marcel’s arms wrap around me. “Sleep well my love,” he whispered to me before I was out.

Dream

“Hello my dear, “I heard the seductive voice of the leader, Jason, said coming up to me... he was alone.... he put hand on my neck and put his lips to my neck kissing it.... I tried to move but he had me.... I couldn’t move.

“Let me go,” I growled trying to move as he kept kissing me... I wanted to kill him... He had no right to be doing this to me... He did not let go of me and this just made my anger rise inside of me...

“Why should I? Just relax and enjoyed,” he whispered into my ear...nibbling a bit. I wanted to kill him more than anything now... I growled and brought a leg back landing right into his stomach but that did no good... all he did was laugh at me!

“You demon,” I hissed kicking around some more... But nothing happened... he just kept laughing at me...

“Calm down little Angel girl... you are well protected within in here and your body will stay pure but not your mind...” He said as he started playing with the shoulder of my dress... My eyes widened as I realized what he was getting at... I struggled more trying to get out of his grip as best as I could... I let out a scream hoping something would help me... Suddenly there was a flash of light and he was away from me growling... his eyes were cat like... his finger nails long and sharp looking... I stared at him wondering what the heck was happening.... Where did the light come from?

“Where in hell did you get that light Angel Princess?” he asked growling... I took another step from him.

“I am not even sure,” I replied in a whisper telling the truth. Where had that light come from? It had been so weird and yet so interesting... I looked around me and then felt pain... meaning it was time for me to wake up....

“NO! Leave her,” Jason growled shouting at the sky... the pain stopped and my pulse quickened... what was happening to me? They weren’t letting me leave? I started crying scared about what was to come next when another flash came and I was in Marcel’s arms awake and crying....

“What is it Isa?” he asked me looking worried... I looked up at him still crying.

“I...I...” I stuttered out... How as I supposed to explain this?

“You what? What happened Isabella? Why are you always so shaken when I wake you up? Why do you seem like you just saw a ghost?”

I looked into his bright eyes and closed my eyes getting ready to tell him. “I have demons in my dreams....”

He stared at me like I was crazy or something. I started pouting. “What now?” I asked looking at him. I think he was laughing on the inside at my I have demons in my sleep sentence. I sighed looking at my hands. Why did I choose to tell him now? I hugged him crying....

“Shh Izzy,” I whispered kissing the top of her head. “It is ok.” He hugged me and kissed the top of my head sighing. “I love you so much and I want you to calm down and tell me what is going on love.” He looked at me kindly and I smiled a bit and kissed him. I put my head on his chest happy as ever.

“Since I came into this territory I have had demons pop into my dreams every night.... And they persist and will not leave me alone no matter how hard I try to get rid of them!” I said sighing and hugging him.

He looked down at me in deep thought... I was dieing to know what he was thinking but I kept that to myself. I snuggled myself up to him and sighed... I wonder what everyone was doing at home. Were they are safe and cozy? Or did something happen? I let out another sigh looking up at him.

“How can this have happened to you of all people? Why did they target you?” he said to himself like didn’t know. I knew he knew why but I wasn’t about to press matters with him about it at all.

I kissed his cheek. “Let’s get going please,” I begged a bit smiling at him. “I am bored of standing around here doing nothing!” I cried out suddenly really wanting to leave.... Something felt wrong all of a sudden. I looked at him waiting for his reply. “Hello?”

“Oh yes... let’s go hon.” He said getting his stuff and mine starting to walk. I followed him humming to myself. I looked around as I walked and sighed.... I was pretty bored. I looked around some more and found an unusual site... A flower! I went over to it and sniffed it smiling... It smelled really good. I smiled and picked it and kept sniffing it hearing Marcel chuckling.

“What? “I asked looking at him. “What is so funny?” I asked still smelling it... It was a Jasmine flower. I smiled and kept smelling it has he laughed at me.

“You make me smile more than anything,” he said kissing me. I smiled and kissed him back.... He was so sweet. He took the flower from my hands and put it in my hair kissing my forehead. “You are mine Isabella,” he whispered into my ear. I smiled and hugged him.

“Thanks,” I whispered kissing his cheek. I headed off for the nearest city.

....I sighed as we got to the nearest city. “We will sleep here,” he said pointing to the spot we were standing on. I nodded too tired to argue and I think he was smiling at the thought of us sleeping on the ground again... together. He started getting it ready and I went to go and get something to start a fire. I came back and he started making it.

“Marcel, why are you leading me wherever I want to go?” I was really curious. He looked at me a funny way then laughed. “Because you need a guide and I love you. I want you to be safe so I am going with you,” he said kissing my forehead and pulling me into his arms. I smiled.

“Thanks love, “I whispered cuddling up to him falling asleep.
