"Bentley Hellbourne is dead,"

Those words were echoed in the pages of history, celebrating the infamous demon's death at the hands of her angelic arch-nemesis. After eighty-five years of peace between Heaven and Hell, the world is finally getting used to its current state of balance. But when Bentley inexplicably comes crawling back from her grave to wreak havoc once again, the structure of the four realms instantly comes crashing down.

After reuniting with his formerly deceased rival, low-ranking angel Atticus pash de Ophaniel finds himself caught up in a wild tangle of adventures. From babysitting Lucifer himself, to discovering horrible truths about his own existence, Atticus is forced to acknowledge the trauma of his past. And in doing so, unearths memories of a long-lost friendship held between himself and the person he always thought he hated the most.

God's Gone AWOL

Atticus was pouring every ounce of power he had into the destruction spell, but still nothing was happening. The soul fragment was still completely intact, without even the slightest hint of change. Even the power used to annihilate the sinning cities of the Old Testament was not enough to make even so much as a dent in the slightest power of God. 


"Bentley..." With a frustrated sigh, Atticus opened his eyes again. 


Bentley was still standing in front of him, but something about her had changed. Even though he called her, she hadn't looked up. Inhaling sharply, Atticus noticed trickles of blood starting to run down from the end of her nose. The hands that were holding onto his so tightly were shaking ever so slightly, trembling beneath the pressure of the spell. —Oh, this was not good. 


"Bentley!" He shouted, so loud in the silence of the spell that his own voice was deafening to his ears.
