"Not with her here." Aspen scolds Ezra.
"You know she probably hates us all right now." I say to my brothers. They all look so hurt after she just ran out the door before we could all explain everything. We shouldn't be the ones who are hurt, but the ones who protect her. We lied to Ember for months now, years in reality.
"I told you guys we should have told her a while ago." Blaze states the obvious, earning our seething glares. I hate to admit it, but he is right. We should have told her after the reading of the will and before we all fucked her.
“ NO, shit!” Aspen and Ezra retort in unison. I hate that twin shit they have, it drives me nuts.
"We can talk about this later, but we need to go find her now. It's not safe for her to be all alone." I assert with fear and panic in my tone.
"How will we even know where she is headed? Or where to start looking?" Ezra questions, like none of us know her.
"I am going to pull up her location now. I saw her grab her phone before she left, and I set up a location app on it the night she met with Niko. She isn't that far we can go to her on foot. She is about two miles up the road." I report as we all run out the door and down the stairs to go get our Goddess of Death. She can be mad at us all she wants as long as she is safely inside our penthouse.
"How in the Hell do you plan on getting her back to the house?" Aspen asks.
"I don't know yet. I will think of something." I convey.
"We can always knock her out and take her." Blaze suggested and I smile just thinking of what we could do to her.
"Yeah, because that will work. She would hate us more for taking her against her will." Ezra states, pulling me from my dirty thoughts. Looking at my phone.
"She has stopped, so we should reach her faster." Running as fast as we can through the park. I keep hoping that nothing has happened to her. I am frantically looking around to see if I can spot her. But nothing.
"There! She is over on that park bench." Aspen yells. I drag my eyes over to the park bench in question and there sits my Little Siren.
"Ember!" We all yell as we get closer. When she sees us, she jumps up and starts running as fast as she can away from us.
"Oh, no you don't, Little Deity." Ezra says as he portals right in front of her.
"What the fuck? How did you-?" She gasps out of breath, bent forward huffing and puffing with her hands on her knees, looking between the two spots Ezra just occupied. We surround her by caging her in so she can’t make an escape.
"Please come back to the penthouse so we can discuss everything?" I ask, softly with my hand extended towards her.
"Why? So, you can lie to me some more? Yeah, no, not happening." She snaps out in anger.
"Yes, we lied to you. It wasn't meant to hurt you, just protect you. I swear." Ezra admits to her.
"Did you even want to tell me that you guys are the actual Four Horsemen?" She asks, looking around at all of us.
"Yes, we did want to tell you but the time was never right." Blaze mentions calmly.
"Why not tell me at the very beginning? Before I fell in –." She pauses for a second and shakes her head before continuing. "I mean, before I got involved with you guys."
Everyone gets quiet. The only sounds filling the night is the hum of cicadas in the distance and our Goddess's deep breaths. She is right though. Why didn't we tell her at the very beginning? Because we are all stubborn and didn't think it would get this far. That all of this would just be business and nothing more. If we would have told her we wouldn't be going through this in the middle of a park in the middle of the night. We could all be at home watching a movie, probably the original The Crow again, and then fucking like rabbits while it plays in the background. Oh, the positions we could have had her in tonight. My cock growing harder than steel at the thought. Such endless possibilities. I could have been down her throat. Aspen in her pussy as Ezra fucks his ass. Then Blaze could of been fucking plowing into her ass. Then we could all switch positions and keep fucking her until the sun came up.
I am pulled from my thoughts as Aspen answers our Goddess of Death. "Because we were..." Is all he gets out as bullets whiz past our heads in rapid succession. Looking to where the bullets originated from, there are four unknown cloaked men standing about thirty feet away from us. How did they get there without any of us knowing or hearing them?
We all move in unison, using a burst of our demon speed to make sure and keep Ember behind us as we go to pull out our weapons.
"Who the fuck are they?" Ember screams.
"I don't know." Ezra points out. The gunfire stops and we all turn towards Ember, to get her out of here. The gunfire starts up again, but this time the gunfire sounds different than normal. I can feel something was off with this round of attacks. I hear my brothers grunt in pain as I see each one fall to their knees, bent over the ground. Multiple wounds litter their back as their blood begins to soak the ground. That’s the moment I feel the white hot pain spread across my back, dropping me to my knees. I can feel the warm blood leaking down my back from the wounds. "Oh, my god." Ember cries out, as she comes closer to us.. I can tell by the look in her eyes that this is bad as we collapse in a heap surrounding her. I can feel my brother's warm blood pooling around us as our wounds fail to heal.
There is something wrong? These aren't normal bullets. These actually hurt. How is this possible? Unless…
Thankfully, Ember was behind us when the guns went off. She crawls to each one of us, calling out our names, in between each heart breaking sob. But none of us answered her. Her hands and knees covered in the blood of my brothers and I, hoping to Lucifer himself none of it is her blood. I don’t know how, but it's so hard to try and talk, my tongue feels like lead, unable to move to form words. My vision is starting to get blurry.
“Blaze? My Master?” Silence.
