Sagar: Ascension, #2

By Hayden West

I'm one of the Angels. My duty is to be a messenger and to watch over the mortals. I protect them. Secretly, I've wanted to be one of the warriors, but I tell no one my wish. I have a place in the hierarchy, and I won't challenge it.

At least not until I meet the lifeguard Dorn, who is also tasked with protecting humans. I want to be intertwined with his future, but evil is approaching, and I'm not in a position to solely protect him. I have duties.

Doesn't stop my desire for him.

I am…

Chapter One

The stench of multiple dead and decaying bodies permeated the air with a thickness not even an Angel could ignore. His stomach seized, and Sagar struggled to keep his lunch down. Not that he needed to eat in the way mortals did, but he did enjoy taking part, occasionally of some delicacy. Right now, however, that was trying to come back up. Truthfully, most of his focus remained on keeping his pristine feathers out of the mix of entrails and blood as he moved across the carnage to where two Powers stood, talking to one another.

From all outward appearances the Powers weren’t fazed. Not even with the dark stains on their wings. Still, their wings didn’t hang in the muck and he didn’t want his in there either. Slanting a gaze to the angel who had been summoned along with him, he sidestepped a pile of bloody mess and returned his gaze to the warriors there.

By all accounts—from what he’d heard—even the Archangels were amazed by the fighting skills of these Powers. More specifically, Danijel.

You’re staring, Jordan whispered.

Hard not to. He’s a legend. They both are.

Jordan shook his head, but there was the same look in his own eyes, which Sagar knew mirrored his. They slowed and waited for the duo to acknowledge them both. Golden eyes, the identifying mark of a Power, looked at him. Correction, not just at him, but deep into him seeing all he was and more. It wasn’t Danijel but his fellow Power, Demuri. The one who had fallen in love with a human.

A human male.

Thoughts to focus on another time. Right now, he had to keep his wings clean, and glean what he could about how he was able to be of service to the Powers.

Thank you for coming. Demuri’s tone vibrated with his power, and it overflowed both of them from Jordan’s expression and his own feeling.

How may we be of service to the Powers?

While he posed the question to the two he found it nigh impossible to look away from Danijel. He was awe inspiring, and the legends surrounding him only added to the mystery and lore. If you took away the fighting skill he was rumored to possess, there was still those amazing and unique silver wings. Many of their kind, across all orders had wings of similar colors, his was
