Chapter 19

I stared at him a bit shocked by his words.

"I watch you kill hi-"

Sean shook his head, "His human form. He was destined for something much greater as to the rest of them. You brother was transformed after death," he spoke.

"I don't understand," I confusingly replied. He let out a chuckle, "Of course you are."

I eyed him expecting some sort of gotcha-bitch type thing but he was actually serious. "Did you really think I'm that evil to kill your brothers like that? I mean don't get me wrong, you honestly tempt me to but I will never do that," he informed me.

I shook my head, "So where is my brother?" I asked.

He shrugged, "Don't know. When did you last see him?"

"Just now...in a casket," I trailed off trying to fit back my tears. "Right, well I'm guessing you went to the viewing. Maybe after he's buried you should see him again," he mumbled. Now a bit angered, I stood up and grabbed him by his collar before yanking him up, before slamming him to the wall.

"Is this some sort of sick joke? How is my brother suppose to come back from the dead?' I hissed.

He didn't smirk or gave any sort of reaction. "I don't know. How did you come back from the dead?" he questioned.

With anger, I dropped him causing him to slide back down to the floor. "I don't believe anything you say nor will I ever," I hissed before flashing into my bedroom. I looked to see James was standing in my room.

"Where did you go?" his eyebrow rose. I shrugged, "Just to get some fresh air. What's up?" I lied as I walked into my closet and started to change into home clothes.

"Well," he trailed off, "Lucifer is downstairs looking for you so I order to come get you," he informed. My head popped out from the side of my closet to look at him. "I don't feel like talking to him at the moment," I spoke.

He gave me a curious look as I emerged out of the closet. "Ever since you came back from that war thing, you've been acting a bit different and ...secretive. What are you hiding?" he asked.

I stared at him before bursting out into laughter. "Good one. I'm not hiding anything. Just need space," I half lied. He studied me for a second before humming in response. "Well, I think you should go downstairs and talk to him," James spoke in a stern tone.

Letting out a sigh, I nodded my head as I walking out my room. I headed down the stairs to see Lucifer standing around in the lobby. As he saw me, his face light up into a smile. "Hey," he softly spoke as I walked up to him. He planted a kiss on my head as he hugged me. I hugged him back before we pulled away.

"How are you?" he asked in a worried tone as he held my hand. "Good," I lied with a smile.

His eyebrow rose, "After all these years, your really think you can lie about your feelings to me? I can feel you're hurting inside," he stroked my cheek.

I gave him a reassuring smile, "I am but I'll be fine. What's up?" I asked changing the subject.

"You've been avoiding me and I know you need your time and space but I'm always here for you whenever you want," he informed me. I nodded my head, "I know and thank you for that."

"Right, well did you eat anything yet?" he asked. I shook my head. "Ah, well go put on some shoes and we'll go out for lunch," he smiled.

"Thanks but I'm not hungry," I replied.

"I love you but I wasn't asking and James told me you haven't eaten yesterday when they went out for dinner. You need to eat," he spoke in a firm tone with his eyes fixed on me.

I let out a sigh, "Fine," I mumbled before walking back up to my room.

I put on some sneakers and walked back downstairs. We went out for lunch then went to the park. After some time, he then drove me home and I spend the rest of the day locked in my room thinking about what Sean had said about Gabe. Sean is honestly a sick person. To just joke around about Gabe coming back to life. I cant even believe he was my best friend. 

Sean was so nice to me and even got me stuff like the charm bracelet he gave me after graduation. We had so much fun together and he even cheered me up and help me through the breakup when Lucifer left. Betrayal at it's finest. Today was hell just going to Gabe's viewing. Tomorrow was going to be much worst.

Wearing another black dress and heels, I flattened my hair out before heading out my room and down the stairs. The guys and I all piled into different cars and headed to the funeral home. As we pulled up to the funeral home, we all got out and headed inside yet for another service before burring him. I never understood funerals to be honest. 

Why could you just bury the person? I understand you want to show them respect and share stories but in my opinion, I would just rather be buried and over it. If Gabe could see this right now, he would honestly be annoyed and complain how bored he was and how dead it was whilst making a few jokes of course.

After half an hour or so, James and a few of the guys carried Gabe's casket out to the car and put it in the back before we got into our own cars and followed the funeral car to the cemetery. Upon arrival, we all got out. Instead of hundreds of people like the viewing, it was just close friends and family members. After a few more words and farewells, they lowered Gabe's casket into the depths of the Earth. A few more silent moments went by along with some tears before we headed back to our cars. Exiting the cemetery, I saw the entrance was swarming with black SUV's and standing in front the SUV's were over 20 men in black suits. They didn't look American but rather A bunch of clicks went off and we all held up our hand in surrender.

"Skylar Marran?" one of the guy questioned as he walked over to me. It was clear to see he was heavily tattooed consider how they were peeking out from under his shirt sleeve and his collar.

"Yes?" I confusingly replied.

He pulled out a pair of cuffs from his side as he came closer, "You're under arrest for the murder of Adonis Regas," he spoke as he cuffed my hands behind my back.

"Adonis as in the guy from Greece?" I question.

"Yes," he bluntly replied. "No, you've got it mistaken. It was there mission to -"

"Yes, on U.S soil, not on Greece," the guy cut Henry off. James came bargaining in as he tried to get the guy off me. "No, you're wrong. Let my sister off these cuffs right now," James demanded only causing for all the guys in black to shift their guns to him.

Lucifer pulled James back to prevent things from escalating any further. The guy then proceeded to shove me towards the car then inside before piling me between two guys.

I looked out the window to see all my brothers and even Henry and Jayson arguing with some of the guys in black. "We'll get you out as soon as possible," James shouted as Lucifer was holding him back from tackling one of the guys.

The car took off to who knows where and I found myself a bit sad, sickened and angry at how this was all placed on this particular day.

"Where exactly are we going?" I asked as the car was filled with silence.

No one answered. I let out a sigh, "You know, you could of arrested me some other day. I mean it's kind of rude to just arrest someone after they just buried their brother," I mumbled.

No one responded. "Where are we going?" I spoke a bit louder. The guy in the passenger seat who had arrested me let out a groan of annoyance. "To a holding cell now will you please shut up," he hissed.

I rolled my eyes, "Rude," I mumbled.

Minutes past by and no one said a word or moves a muscle. It was honestly scaring me a bit in the sense of not knowing what to expect. We then pulled up to an airport and my eyebrow rose in confusion.

"Uh, why are we at an airport?" I asked as the car drove to a private plane. No one answered. This was now all seeming to be a bit sketchy. "Where are you taking me?" I demanded as I leaned over to the front seat.

The guy next to me yanked me back into my seat aggressively causing the cuffs to slice against my skin at the grip it had. Soon, the car came to a stop and I was then dragged out the car towards the plane. I slammed down on my heels as protesting to their actions.

"I demand to know what's going on. I have rights and I want to see some badges around here. You haven't even told me who you are or what you do. So, unless you want me to corporate, I suggest you start giving me some answers," I shouted as two guys were now trying to push me into the plane.

I felt something pinch against my neck and I felt something cold run through my body. I tried to use my powers to flash out but I felt myself becoming weaker with each second. I was then picked up and thrown over someone's shoulder. Looking behind me, I saw the leader of this whole arrest thing smirking at me.

"We don't care if you corporate or not. You kill our boss so now it's pay back bitch," I heard him hiss before my eyes slowly closed.
