but is it really innocent when they give it to you? â
Michael really showed him how merciless an angel can be.
Returning to the apartment, almost dying from the torture tactics of God, watching as the injuries wouldn't heal. The wounds were too powerful for anyone to heal but the one that had bestowed them. That was a trick Michael had used on many demons, Adriel had seen them. "No, I'm not stupid, I'm protecting you!" Adriel took her hand from his wounds, sitting up slowly and letting the pain seep through him, fuel his anger. "I'm going to go to Lucifer, and he'll see me like this. He'll want revenge. I'm his weakness, just as you are to your own father." Adriel holds her hand tight in his own, like always.
Adriel needed Lucifer's mind off of Amariah. He needed to give Lucifer a new end goal, and he could protect Amariah from it all. He was tired of being protected by her, and not being able to give the same back. He did expect Michael and God to mistrust him, but he didn't expect the beating. God wouldn't hear him out, even as he was honest. He does love Amariah, he doesn't want to hurt her. More than anything, he wanted God to look favorably upon him, for once. Completely honest.
"I love you, Amariah, I love you. You will never be safe as long as this war is going. We'll never be happy. I don't care if God clears out all of hell and Luc- my father, dies. You are everything to me." Adriel holds her against him, tears falling from his eyes and dotting her skin.
