For the next couple of days, Lucifer and I had trained hard, mostly me. Lucifer was already undefeatable. Training was hell itself. It was brutal, long and painful. We were now sitting in Lucifer's office. I starred at him as he continued to explain to why he needed to use Liana.

"Do you get it?" he asked. I gave him a small smile before nodding my head lying. My eyebrow rose, "Do you really?" he questioned. I shifted my nod to shaking my head.

"Thought you would the first time. Alright, the only reason I'm keep her a Demon for now is because she's sort of close with Sean. She will be by his side this whole time until war. Until then, she'll be reporting to me what's going on," he started to explain again.

"Like a spy?" I questioned. He nodded with a smile, "Exactly."

"Well, what if she's actually reporting wrong information to you and telling Sean about this?" I asked.

He leaned back in his office chair, "Not going to happen. She's pretty terrified of what I can do but yes, I get your point."

"What if she rants you out?"

He shook his head, "Not going to happen Princessa."

I sat back in the chair across from him, in front his desk. "And Quinn? How do you view her?" I found myself asking.

"She's just here to run around to get things in order. She's like an old acquaintance. One who I'm not to fond of but she'll do at the moment and I promise, you have nothing to worry about," he assured me.

I nodded my head, "Fair enough," I informed him. His phone started to ring to which he quickly looked at the caller id and picked it up.

"What's up?" he casually answered. He stayed silent for a couple of second before gazing at me as if it was about me. "Okay, we're coming down," he informed the person on the other line before hanging up.

He hung up and stood up causing me to stand up. We then headed out the room, and down the hall.

"James is here with Gabe. Axel went and got them here. Said something was wrong with Gabe. I don't know what," he informed me. I felt something in me crush as he said something was wrong with Gabe. I loved all my brothers but Gabe was the only one who can truly hit the soft spot, even for the guys as well.

As I walked down the stairs behind Lucifer, we walked into the living room and I looked to see Axel and James were talking by the mini bar. Liana and Quinn were sitting by the couch talking. Gabe was just standing by the window, starring outside. He was also in sweats and a white shirt. I walked over to Axel and James.

As James saw me, we quickly wrapped each other in a hug.

"Are you okay?" I asked in a concerned tone as I eyed him. He quickly nodded his head, "I'm fine. We're all fine. It's Gabe," he gestured to him. I looked to see Gabe was now laying on the couch on his stomach.

I looked back to James who had a frown on his lips. "How long has he been like this?" I asked.

James rubbed the back of his head, "About 4 days. He barely eats and spent most of the time in his room, in his bed," he informed me. I looked back at Gabe who's back was turned against me so his face was towards the back of the couch. "It's his bipolar," I mumbled.

James nodded, "Yes. The pills don't seem to work this time."

I shook my head, "I don't think that's going to fix it. Just leave him with me for a few," I stated. James looked at Gabe then back at me, "I don't know about that. He turned really violent when you force him to get up or something," he mumbled.

"You've got to trust me," I informed him.

He released a sigh, "Fine. I'll get Axel to bring back a bag of his clothes. Just give me a second." I nodded with a small smile and watched as he walked over to Gabe. He was saying his goodbyes but Gabe didn't say anything. He didn't even budge. James let out a sigh and walked back towards me.

"Keep me updated," James spoke before hugging me. "Of course," I replied before hugging him back. We stayed like this for a couple of seconds then pulled away before he walked over to Axel who teleported him back to the safe house.

"So, what's your plan?" Lucifer's voice came next to me. I shrugged, "Stay with him for a while. I know we had training but I really need to be with him right now. Alone," I informed him. He gave me a small smile before kissing my forehead, "I know. Do what you need to do," he spoke without hesitation.

I looked next to see to see Axel dropping a duffel bag to the floor which was Gabe's bag. I walked over to Gabe who was still laying down.

"Gabe," I spoke in a soft tone.

He didn't reply.

"Please get up. You and I are going to go to another house. It will just be us for a couple of days," I explained.

He didn't move.

"Gabe," I spoke in a more stern tone.

Nothing.

"Sean bit me in my arm again," I lied.

Not even a sigh.

"Gabe, please get -"

"Leave me alone," he groan out.

I shook my head despite him not being able to see me. "I'm not going to leave you alone. Now get up," I spoke in a soft tone.

He let out another groan. This one sounded much more angry. "Skylar, I'm warning you one more time. Leave me alone," he hissed.

Letting out a sigh, I knew getting him back to his normal self was going to be a challenge. I grabbed his hand and yanked him off the couch. He swatted my hand away as he was now standing up towering over me. His furious body was intimidating and even though I was immortal, it was still scary.

"What the fuck? Can't you people take a fucking hint. I just want to be fucking left the fuck alone. Why can't you guys fucking understand that?" his voice boomed through the room.

My eyes gazed upon his face. His eyes had darkened and his face was a bit paler. I quickly wrap my arms about him only causing him to tense up. "Get the fuck off me!" he shouted as he tried to pry me off him. "No!" I muffled into his chest.

"Skylar," he groan out in frustration. He finally gave up and wrapped his arms around me.

We just stood there in silence hugging each other. My brother was tattooed up. His combat was to kill with no mercy. He protect and fights for what he believe in. He was like a killing machine expecting under all that, he still had a heart. He had feeling. To top it all off, he had bipolar which just fucked him over. He didn't deserve this. No one did.

After a few minutes of hugging, I had to break the hug. I quickly grabbed his bag and walked back over to him before teleporting us to one of our safe houses that was untraceable. Gabe walked up the stairs and I trailed behind him as he walked into a bedroom. He opened the blanket and got under it before fully covering himself.

Letting out a soft silent sigh, I dropped his bag on the floor and walked over to the other side of the bed and got in next to him. He turned my direction and I could see the sadness in his eyes. "You know, you can always talk to me," I spoke in a soft tone.

"I know," his voice cracked. I quickly wrapped him in a hug as he buried his head into my chest. "Family or not," I will always be here for you. It doesn't matter what I'm doing. I would drop everything just for you," I commented.

He didn't say anything but I could feel his hot tears soaking through my shirt which broke my heart. Nothing else said, he just fell asleep in my arms. Soon enough, I fell asleep.

"Okay, first of all, you don't have to be such an ass about it," I huffed out as I got into the driver's seat. Gabe let out a hysterical laugh, "Just be thankful I didn't kill him," he replied as he got into the passenger's seat.

I rolled my eyes, "All he did was ask if you wanted more coffee," I shrieked as I started the car. Gabe shrugged in his seat, "Well, to be fair I told him I was fine with my drink a minute ago but then he kept asking."

I looked over to him with a 'Are-you-kidding-me!' look. "Gabe, he's a waiter. That's his job," I stated.

He just shrugged again and leaned back in his seat before putting his foot up on the dashboard. "Well, he's annoying," he replied.

I rolled my eyes again and pulled out the parking lot. It was now the next day and I decided Gabe and I should head out and grab lunch. Today he seemed a bit better but was an asshole more than usual.

My phone started to ring and before I could reach for it, Gabe connected it to the car and answered it.

"You have reached the voicemail box of Skylar Marran. Please leave a fucking message after the beep. Beeeppppp," Gabe spoke in a monotone. I glared at him only to give me a smirk.

"Well, nice to hear you're talking again," James voice came through the speaker. Gabe shrugged, "I tried," he mumbled.

"How are you?" James asked. "How the fuck do you think?" Gabe scoffed.

I reached over and smacked him behind his head. "What the fuck?!" he shouted. "I know you've got bipolar but I will still kick your ass if you don't behave," I warned him.

"Putting you two together is like putting a cat and dog together," James sighed from the phone.

"Fuck off," Gabe and I simultaneously replied to him. Gabe and I both then glared at each other. "Anyways, what's up?" I asked.

"Right, well here's your Fiancé to explain," he informed me. I heard some shuffling before Lucifer's voice came through, "Hey Princessa," he spoke into the phone.

Just hearing his voice made me smile. "Hi," I chirped back.

"How are you and Gabe doing?" he asked.

"Fucking fantastic," Gabe spoke in a sarcastic tone before I could answer. Lucifer chuckled, "Seems like you're annoying the hell out of her. Keep it up," he influenced Gabe.

I rolled my eyes only for Gabe to smirk. "Thanks man."

"No problem," Lucifer replied.

"Ya'll are messed up. Assuming you didn't call for that, what's up?" I asked.

Silence went over the line for a couple of seconds before I heard Lucifer sigh. "I don't want you to panic. Just know everyone's fine," he reassured me. I was now starting to get worried. "Okay," I slowly replied.

"Liana just told me that Sean is planning to make a move on you any second once he finds you. I know you're with Gabe and you guys need time but I suggest you come home right now. Both of you," he informed me.

I was about to protest but Gabe cut me off. "We'll be there in half an hour," he informed Lucifer before hanging up.

"Gabe!" I protested. He gave me a small smile, "Look, I know you want to help me but us being this far from Lucifer let alone the rest of the guys is a bit risky. I rather be over there feeling a bit more safer than us being alone. Besides, we don't know what Sean is capable of. Just the other day he managed to crash your proposal," he reminded me.

I studied what he said for a minute of two before nodded. "Fine but why did you say half an hour? We could just flash over there now," I spoke in confusion. He nodded, "We could of but I just need a moment to collect myself before we go back," he mumbled.

I nodded in understand. As we got home, I parked in the garage and got out before we headed inside.

"I'm gonna hit the showers before we go," I shouted as I walked up the stairs. "I'll be down here when you're ready," he shouted from the living room.

Walking into my bedroom, I walked into my bathroom and hopped in the shower. After about 15 minutes, I got out and changed into some fresh clothes. I got into a nude crop top with a long maxi skirt that had a huge slit on the side. I blow dried my hair and slipped into some heels to match my outfit. Grabbing my phone I headed down the stairs.

"Gabe, I'm ready!" I shouted as I walked down the stairs. "In here," his voice came out with force. Turning the corner, I walked around the corner only for my heart to drop.

Sean was holding a gun to Gabe's head
