Nephalem Chapter 13

~CONTINUATION~

Serissa, Lara's mother, covered her head with a hood as she was hurriedly walking in the Heavens, hoping not to be spotted. Finally, she arrived at a garden where no angels usually went. She removed her hood, revealing her true identity.

"Come to this place," she whispered under her breath, hoping that only the intended listener could hear. The words carried to their destination, and the person to whom Serissa was referring soon arrived.

A whisper from above reached the Underworld, where a dark knight was training and fighting alongside his comrades. Upon hearing it, he suddenly stopped what he was doing, leaving his comrades confused and baffled.

"What's up, boss?" one of his comrades asked.

The dark knight, still feeling the weight of the message he had just received, addressed his comrades, letting out a sigh before stating,

"Nothing, the training is dismissed. You may go back now."

His comrades responded with a nod as they left the underworld, leaving him alone with his thoughts.

The dark knight, his demon wings spread behind him, quickly leaves the underworld and flies to the place where the whisper had called out to him: the garden. Upon arriving, he scans the area and spots Serissa. He approaches her and halts when he reaches a short distance away.

"Serissa," he calls out to her, his voice quiet but full of anticipation.

Serissa turns toward Aamon after seeing him, and with a warm glow in her eyes, she rushes to him, tears of joy streaming down her cheeks. She embraces him tightly, wrapping her arms around his neck, and the dark knight gently holds her in his warm embrace.

"Oh, Aamon," she murmurs in a sweet tone, her heart overflowing with love and longing for him.

Aamon, Lara's father and the dark knight, holds Serissa close to him, wrapped in a tender embrace that conveyed the depth of his longing for her. With a soft and low tone, he speaks to her.

"Serissa, I'm glad you're safe," Aamon responds, his voice filled with relief and love.

Serissa, her eyes sparkling with happiness, tilts her head up and looks at him, tears of joy streaming down her cheeks. Aamon feels a warmth in his heart as he holds her in his arms, and with a gentle touch, he wipes the tears from her cheek, smiling softly at her.

Serissa, her voice laced with concern, spoke to Aamon, "Lara, our daughter, the heavens were planning on executing her." Tears streamed down her cheeks, and she blushed slightly when Aamon gently wiped her tears with his finger.

With a calming and reassuring tone, Aamon responded, "She'll be alright. She's strong now. I can feel it in her blood." His words seem to soothe Serissa, and she relaxes, softening slightly as she tilts her head down.

With a deep sigh of relief, Serissa lays her head on Aamon's shoulder and hugs him, holding him close. Aamon gently wraps his arms around her, thinking to himself, "I hope she can keep her balance."

Aamon, in the midst of his intimate moment with Serissa, suddenly heard a signal from the underworld, calling all the demons to unite. With a heavy heart, he pulled back from Serissa and began to walk away, preparing to leave. Serissa, watching him go, felt a deep sense of sadness.

But Aamon spoke one last thought before spreading his demonic wings and flying away. "Be safe, Serissa. I love you." His words echoed in her ears, and she knew that she would always carry that love with her.
Serissa's heart felt as if it was melting, her cheeks flush with emotion after hearing his words. As she watched Aamon depart, tears welled up in her eyes, but she made no attempt to stop him.
