"Hindi kami close."

My mouth dropped after hearing what she said.

What?

Hindi kami close? What does that even mean? This woman is so damn frustrating! Halata naman sa mukha niya na inis parin siya sa akin dahil sa sinabi ko about sa Netflix and Chill.

Pero I have no fucking idea about that term! Crow told me na iyon daw ang sikat na term sa panunoud ng Netflix. But this damn apprentice laughed after Angelus cursed at me.

She didn't even gave me time to explain myself. Tapos ininsulto ko pa ang pinapanoud niyang series na Lucifer kanina. Now she's fucking ignoring me like I'm a damn wind here. I just want to defend my lord. Lucifer should not be labled like that. And he doesn't have a face, nobody had seen him.

"Let's go," Crow said and prepared the portal.

Pinasidahan ko ng tingin ang kitchen pero hindi parin lumalabas si Angelus. Binuksan ni Crow ang pinto at agad kaming lumabas. Nang tumapak ang paa ko sa sahig ay nasa likuran na kami ng Club Anix.

There's a drunkard beside the trash bin and he's murmuring something. Nauna akong naglakad kay Crow hanggang sa bumukas ang pinto at may lumabas na babae at lalaki. They immediately kissed habang papalabas dito sa backdoor. Napailing si Crow dahil sa nakita.

Loud music and different lights welcomed us inside the club.

Mortals are dancing everywhere and some are making out. The smoke from their cigarettes are visible in the horizon because of the lights.

Sinundan ko si Crow papunta sa itaas. I think it's way better up there para makita namin sila ng maayos. There are also mortals up here pero kaunti lang at mukhang VIP lahat.

Sumandal sa railings si Crow at inilibot ang paningin sa dagat ng mga tao na nasa ibaba namin.

"I can't sense anything," wika ko sa kanya.

I can't sense any demon or other immortals up here. Probably because of my limited power.

"There's an angel down there," he answered.

"Guardian?" tanong ko.

Umiling siya at umayos ng tayo.

"Messenger."

Umayos rin ako ng tayo at hinanap ang sinasabi niya. Dahan-dahan ang pagtingin ko sa bawat taong sumasayaw hanggang sa dumako ang paningin ko sa isang lalaki na nakaupo sa stool at nakatalikod sa bar tender.

He's looking directly at me. Nakasuot siya ng puting sleeves at puting jeans. Walang nakakapansin sa kanya at alam kong hindi siya nakikita ng kahit na sino.

Angels like him are called Life Messengers.

They pick up humans who are devine. They are our actual opposite. But I won't mind him now, Messengers from heaven and hell are not supposed to meddle with each other's businesses.

"Can you sense any demon?" tanong ko kay Crow.

He is still looking intently at the dance floor while the loud music invades the whole area.

"There's no demon here, but I saw two demon hunters walking towards us," kalmado niyang wika.

Sinundan ko ng tingin ang sinasabi niya at agad na nakita ang isang babae at lalaki.

The girl is wearing a smirk, while the guy is grinning. They're both holding a specialized weapon with bullets dipped in holy water. That bullets can kill us through our hearts, though it's bloody black and merely pumping. Pero itong akin ay tumitibok kaya dehado ako sa kanila.
