The demon groaned in pain, and unlike Calhoun, his wounds didn't heal.

Calhoun tsked, "We both are demons, a lot of things will have the same affect. I think you forgot to find how to protect yourself from your own creation," he noticed one side of the demon's face continued to melt until the bones. It left one of the eyeballs open without any eyelids around it. "You are fast. But not fast enough."

The demon raised his hand towards his face and touched the bones. Suddenly anger took over the person's face, "I will make sure to shred you into pieces." He spat the blood on the ground.

Calhoun tapped on the side of his gun and loaded it with silver bullets, "I can barely wait."

Back at the building's ground floor, Madeline's concentration was split between the fallen angel, the demon with the crossbow and Beth who tore one of the demon into two pieces. The werewolf loudly growled, shaking the entire building before breaking the wall and stomping away.

"Beth, wait!" Madeline tried to follow her, but she was stopped by the two people who wanted her heart.

The woman named Wendy, said, "Earlier, I thought there was something extraordinary with that girl, wondering if the dark angel always had green eyes, but then that was just your sister. Your sister is already a lost cause. It would be better for you to give your heart by lying on the table."

Madeline didn't know where Vladimir had disappeared, and she couldn't see Paschar in here either. Just as the thought crossed in her mind, another arrow was lodged at her, and before she could dodge it, the tip of the arrow pierced through her chest, grazing her heart and suddenly everything started to slow down and freeze.

The arrow had come at a speed that had Madeline stagger back, and she tried not to lose her balance. She could feel the pain that came from the arrow, starting to spread similar to the way a plant's roots grew, spreading throughout her body and her eyesight started to turn dim.

Madeline fell on the ground, unconscious and the woman's eyes widened, "What the heck did you do?! Did you kill her?" she demanded, going near the dark angel to check her breathing.

"Relax, she's still alive, at least for a few more seconds," replied the demon who had tagged along near the dark angel, making his way to where they were. "The spells have already been uttered, all we need to do is to cut open her chest and pull out her heart."

"Do it," ordered Greyson who had escaped from the eyes of the King and had reached at the scene in time to see the dark angel fall back on the ground. "Before there are anymore disruptions. The moon is out, and this is the right time."

"Alright then," answered Wendy.

She pulled out the knife and bent down to sit next to the dark angel. When the woman checked Madeline's breath, the girl was having difficulty in breathing, which only meant that she was near death. Readying the knife in her hand, the woman went to plunge it through Madeline's chest which was when Madeline's body jerked, and her head fell back.

"What happened?" asked the demon standing next to Greyson.

Wendy leaned forward, and suddenly a white light emerged from the wound where the arrow was sticking in Madeline's chest. The demons couldn't see anything because of the blinding light and Greyson being the smart demon, he pulled the demon in front of him as a shield, which was when a sudden force pushed them away. The light stopped and Wendy, who had hit her head on the ground, groaned in pain, noticing her skin peel from her body. She looked up to see the dark angel who was previously on the ground, who now stood in front of them.

Madeline wasn't herself anymore. Her eyes had turned white and her face had a passive look on it. But it was the bloody red wings that had erupted through her back that caught everyone's attention.

"It's the dark angel!" whispered Greyson. Realizing this was the right time, he picked up the knife that Wendy had dropped and he made his way towards Madeline. Before he could even step near her, Madeline raised her hand, and with one push from her hand, the demon went flying to hit the wall, wincing over his broken arm.

Wendy's mouth was left open as she had not expected to see the wings right now.

Consumed by the greed of power, the woman ran towards the dark angel, but Madeline without making use of a weapon caught hold of the fallen angel, and she pushed the fallen angel against the wall while squeezing the woman's neck.

"You fucking bitch!" Wendy struggled to get Madeline's hand away from her neck as the dark angel oozed with enormous strength. Even though the fallen angel had a few abilities, the person was still human-like, who needed air to breathe.

The white eyes turned back to brown, and Madeline said, "You have sinned, fallen angel, and I condemn you to the place where you rightfully belong."

"Tear her wings!" said another demon who was on the same floor.

Wendy didn't get to do it because Madeline didn't let go of her neck. Using another hand, Madeline placed her fingers on Wendy's forehead, "I hope God forgives you for your sins."

The fallen angel started to spew blood from her mouth, and Madeline let go of the woman's neck. In time she turned to catch hold of another demon who had come behind her to tear her wings. Madeline placed her open palm on the demon's face who turned to a pool of blood as the demon's body was ripped open.

Wendy continued to vomit blood, and she fell on her knees, "S-stop this!" she begged Madeline.

Madeline turned to look at the fallen angel's child, staring at the woman's plight.

"Okay," she whispered, receiving a relieved look from Wendy, which was short-lived as Madeline said, "Die."

Wendy's eyes widened, and she shook her head, "N-n-" before she could utter a word, a sharp icicle pierced through her heart from behind, and the woman froze.
