Chapter 4: After the Beginning: You

She set her cup down when her father didn't pay attention and ducked out of the ballroom through the pillars. Walking down the path, lit up by faeries, she came to the Forbidden Garden of Heaven. It was the only place her father wouldn't think she'd dare go. She's had enough of her father's many setup angels to court her. This time she was going to resist.

The number of faeries grew smaller the closer she got to the Garden, until there was nothing but darkness and the glow of the moonlight. Stopping to sit down on a bench, a sudden gush of wind hit her. Curious as to what caused it, she turned her head to the entrance of the Garden. There stood a dark shadow, wing's spread. But she could only see his back. In the moonlight, she could clearly see feathers falling off those broken wings to the ground.

Despite being broken, but the angel in front of her somehow seemed beautiful and mysterious to her. Unable to control herself, she began making her way toward him, one step at a time. Before she could reach him, another angel came out from the bushes.

"Evan, he isn't at his fullest now, it's the best time to do what you needed to do." the angel said.

She heard Evan chuckle.

"How about his daughter?" Evan questioned.

"She's nowhere to be found." the angel replied.

She gasped when she realized who they were talking about. The dark Angel nodded his head.

"You may leave now Azorachin." Evan said.

With a nod, Azorachin left the Garden. About to leave, she was surprised when she turned around to find Evan in front of her, staring her down. He looked surprised.

"You." Evan said.

She stumbled back in caution.

"Who are you and what do you want?" she questioned.

He backed her up until she stood in the middle of the Garden where the moonlight shined onto like a spotlight. Only then did she recognize his face.

"Evan?" she questioned, recalling where she had seen him before, "You're the devil!"

Evan raised his eyes off the ground to stare directly into her eyes, his eyes glowing a deep black. The corners of his lips rising up to form a smile.

"That's what most call me, but in reality, I'm just a fallen angel." Evan replied.

"What are you doing here in Heaven, you were kicked out." she questioned.

Within a second, he had her in his hands their faces an inch apart.

"Don't do anything to me, I'm an angel, I can hurt you." she threatened him to protect herself.

"You could, but you wouldn't dare." Evan stated, "You'll get in trouble too, now that you have entered the Forbidden Garden."

"My father will kill you." she said.

"He's done more than that to me." Evan stated, "God isn't as great as you think he is, little girl."

Her eyes wavered in confusion.

"What do you mean, my father is the best man there ever will be." she protested.

"Is that why he kicked an orphan who he couldn't control out of heaven?" Evan questioned.

She shook her head in denial. Her father would never do that.

"You're lying." she argued.

"I'm not, and that's not all." Evan replied, "You are mine."

With those words, he pulled her closer, tighter, smiling down at her. Her eyes fell onto his lips and his dimples. His skin was glowing. Her heart began to race when she remembered him calling her his. He smiled, hearing her heartbeat as loud as thunder.

"That was your heart telling you what I say is true." Evan said, "You feel the same way as I do."

She shook her head in protest and pushed him away.

"I don't feel anything for you and you can't feel anything for me!" she shouted, deceiving her own beating heart.

"Do you think the devil doesn't have feelings?" Evan asked.

She could see the hurt in his eyes, but she needed to be strong.

"He doesn't." She replied.

"Do you think he fell for nothing?" Evan questioned, "Of course he has feelings, that's what caused him to fall from heaven."

"I don't believe you." she answered.

"Do you want to know how the devil fell?" Evan asked.

She turned to the ground in thought. She couldn't deny that there was always something about her father that felt wrong to her. But this was the Devil who was speaking to her. The one who tricked Eve into eating the forbidden Apple in this exact Garden. Gathering up her courage to fight back, she raised her eyes to look him in the face. The only thing she could see was the questioning and pain in his eyes. Somehow she wanted to know what he could be so sad about.

"You'll see." Yanjun replied, leaning in closer, "Look into my eyes."

She was startled, it was as if he could read her mind. She froze in place, staring into his eyes. It felt like forever until finally she stumbled back, blinking her eyes. He held onto her and sat her down onto the bench for her to calm down first.

"You're lying, it's not." She mumbled, trying to convince herself.

Grabbing onto her shoulder, he made her face him.

"It's you." Evan stated, "You're Eve."

She only managed to push him away and back away when the sound of marching came their way. Evan's eyes widened in horror.

"No, it's happening again!" Evan exclaimed, "you have to leave with me, now!"

She pushed his hand away as he tried to reach for her. At the same time, Evan was thrown onto the ground, just like in the vision she had. Two soldiers held him down. It was happening again. She turned to the entrance where her father stood, glaring.

"I thought I told you to never come here." said her father.

"I..." she hesitated.

Just then Azorachin, the angel from earlier was brought in by two other soldiers. He looked at Evan apologetically before he too was forced to the ground.

"Dad, I don't know who they are, I was just taking a walk." she stated.

Heading over to her father's side.

"I can never change your evil ways no matter how much I fix you!" her father shouted, pushing her away.

Her eyes widened in surprise. How could this be? She cried as one more soldier came in and grabbed her.

"This time your punishment will be even greater." said her father, "Send all three of them down to live life as a powerless human, see how much they can love each other."

"But, father, I didn't do anything wrong!" she called after her father as he walked away.

All three of them were taken to the Lake of Earth. Azorachin was pushed in first. Evan shouted in pain, having to see his best friend go. Next was her. Evan struggled to break free.

"Wait!" Evan shouted.

The soldier holding her down stopped. She turned to look at him. There was so much pain in his eyes and his eyes were red from crying.

"How many times do I have to see the person I love most, die in front of me?" He cried in a whisper.

Seeing the love in his eyes, her heart ached, her tears began to fall too. She recalled the vision she had. If this was all happening, then what he told her must be true.

"Evan, I love you." she cried.

"Eve."
