Married to the Devil's Son novel Chapter 298

Chapter 298: 175

Heaven was sleeping in Zamiel's arms after a long day of talk and cries. Despite being in pain, her grandmother had been happy to be surrounded by her family. She even managed to sit up for a while to talk and laugh with them. Heaven was glad that her grandmother was in a better place. At least she wasn't hurting emotionally together with the physical pain.

Her grandfather seemed to go through his own struggles. Before he left, his eyes had been blank. Like he was still in shock. Even though Heaven felt a little bad for him, she hoped this would make him realize how quickly and easily you could lose the people you loved. She hoped this would open his eyes, but she didn't hope too much.

Heaven was mostly grateful to the water demon for taking care of her grandmother. Her grandmother had told her about him and how they became good friends. Heaven would guess the demon saw her as more than a friend.

Her friend Zarin had come to see her when he found out. All he did was hug, and that was all she needed sometimes. No words, nothing. Just acknowledging her pain. Ilyas came to give her his condolences.

He told her that he had caught some of the witches and that they would find the rest. Heaven didn't like revenge, but these demon hunters needed to disappear if they were going to hunt and kill demons.

She had no doubt that Zamiel, now even her grandfather and Euphorion, would punish them accordingly.

Turning in bed, she looked at Zamiel. She was glad he could sleep after this stressful day. How she wished he hadn't gone through this pain. This was too much pain in a lifetime. She still had a hard time believing it. There must be something good that happens to him. He was always going through hell.

Kissing him, she tried to sleep, but couldn't. Her heart felt too heavy. She tried to push the bad thoughts to the back of her mind, but didn't succeed. Just lying in bed and forced to deal with her emotions, she heard voices outside.

Callum's voice sounded rushed as he spoke to her guards. They had spotted the enemy marching toward the castle from afar. Heaven had almost forgotten about the war. Of course, the enemy would attack at night.

Quickly she got out of bed and if she thought Zamiel was asleep she was wrong. He was fully awake. And he knew what was going on.

"Heaven. I can take care of them." He said, sitting up.

She knew he could just destroy them all with a wave of his hand, but that wouldn't help her in becoming a general. She also felt like doing something and keeping herself occupied to not lose her mind. She wanted to fight. Lying in bed just made her thoughts go places that made her sad.

"I will take care of it," she said, going to the door.

She opened and peeked outside. "Callum."

"My Lady. The enemy is here." He said.

"Call for a meeting. I will be there soon." And then she closed the door.

Using magic, she lit the candles and looked for her armor. It was to go back to duty.
