The Demon's Bride Chapter 749: Lovely You-II

In Heaven, Gabriel spent his time to accompany Lucy who couldn’t let go her hands away from the mirror her friend had brought. Her joy had caused her to cry out of happiness and she kept smiling whenever the two small babies made a move.

“Declan and Aleksander, they are beautiful names.” Lucy looked at everything around her grandsons to be pretty to her eyes. 

“Indeed, it rolls easily from our tongue. Elise made a good choice with her sense of naming,” agreed Gabriel who stood next to Lucy. He then watched the woman who had always been pitiful to his eyes.

Lucy had been married to the wrong person. She had a terrible sense when it comes to reading a person’s true nature when she was young. She was still far too green to know the true evilness behind the people around her.

Gabriel always found humans pitiful. They often made sins not because how they were truly is but their complex situation. However, no exception could be made to those humans who had sinned despite their situation.

Gabriel had always taught himself to be as fair as he could to the humans in the garden of the heaven, where all souls rested on.

Unable to help himself, he asked, “Do you want to meet them?”

Lucy’s black eyes met him and revealed her surprise, “Will you let me meet them?”

Gabriel was silent. He wouldn’t be fair if he had let Lucy to meet her grandsons when all other humans never had the chance to.

“Sorry,” he honestly replied.

Lucy chuckled at his response. “I am content, Gabriel. It is indeed lonely being here alone but each day I am filled with peace. Seeing them from afar is already a joy to me. Sometimes, the dead should stay where they belong and let the living enjoy their time from afar. I don’t feel less joyful by watching them from Heaven.”

Gabriel knew the kindness from Lucy and was happy to find such a pure soul from her.

“How about Raziel? Had he seen them and Lady Adelaide?” Lucy questioned and Gabriel shook his head. “Raziel had always been on the awkward side. My brother had never shown such attitude nor did my son do therefore I am not sure what to say to encourage him. Is he still not allowed to meet Lady Adelaide?”

As Lucy had been in Heaven, Gabriel took the pleasure of telling her in law who lived in the same place as her. She hadn’t been able to meet Adelaide with rules that were set between them but the mothers have begun sending letters back and forward by the help of Beelzebub, thus her knowing to Raziel’s and Adelaide’s situation.

Gabriel shook his head in response, “Michael being him is not an actual strict person. I’m sure he is trying to pull a few string for Adelaide to meet Raziel but it will take time.”

“I see… I hope they could be reunited,” Lucy expressed her wish and enjoyed the wind that brushed across her cheeks as if bringing her wish with them to the sky.

At night, the white large wings spread across the sky. With the humans asleep, no one was able to spot the appearance of a large dove making its way across the blue sky, stopping at the large white mansion.

He had appeared quietly like two nights before and stood at the edge of the window from the balcony. Making his way closer, his eyes fell toward the two babies that were sleeping peacefully.

Raziel knew the moment when the babies would be alone. While the entire place was secure and impossible for anyone to enter, he had used his angelic power to enter without notice. The castle sensed no killing intention from him, therefore allowing him to enter.

Aleks who had been sleeping all of a sudden opened his black eyes and when Raziel met the baby’s eyes, he couldn’t help but break into a smile. 

Declan, however, wasn’t as calm as Aleks and quickly rang up a cry. Raziel who was about to use his power to entertain the babies from crying then saw the shadow making its way next to the wooden crib.

“I was thinking on whether to make a grand appearance and surprise you or if I should have left you alone here to play with them. I decided to do both for efficiency reasons,” came the voice from Ian who made his way next to the crib. He placed his hand gently on his younger son, soothing him to sleep by carrying him on his arm. 

Aleks remained calm even as Ian had brought to carry him with his other arm and made his way outside the room. “Want to hold him?” 

Raziel watched as Ian had offered him to carry Aleksander. He hesitated and Ian didn’t miss this from the man who then carefully held the baby to his arm.

However, he took the courage to carry the boy on his arm. Ian noticed the surprise of joy spreading all over Raziel’s face was exactly the same as he had when he held his twin babies for the first time.

“I thought it was strange how you never visited me when you knew I entered the mansion,” Raziel said. “They are special babies.”

Ian grinned, “I was thinking on when to tittle tale your appearance. My wife would be happy I’m sure but you don’t seem to want that. You still haven’t got the courage to do it?”

Raziel sat down on the chair beside him. Holding to the bottle of warmth on his arms, he looked at the sky. “I feel embarrassed for not being able to provide any one of you with help. I have the power but all is useless when it comes to my family.”

“See the two babies here?” Ian raised Declan who had quickly fallen asleep once he had enough of crying. “They are now our future. You might not be able to help Elise or Adelaide, but there are them. You can now use your power to protect them and relish all the regret you have. It’s a word for me but Elise never hated you for not helping her. Instead, she would be extremely overjoyed to see you visit the caste. I say this because I know her very well and the pure heart she has.”
