Chapter 8
Kat's POV
Devon laughed in the man's face.
"Yes you will do what I tell you because I have the upper hand Mr. Valley," The man was staring down Devon. He turned his head and looked at me.
"Kathrina please!" I stood back in shock.
"What?" I asked.
"Kat! Kid please remember me!" He shouted.
"I'm sorry I don't know you," the man started crying.
"It's me Marcus! Come on! How can you not remember me?!" Devon gave a demonic laugh. Marcus glared at him and turned back to me. He stood tall and walked closer to me. I pulled free from Devon's grip. "Remember me," He said as he pulled me in by my waist and kissed me. It lasted for what felt like an eternity. What ever Kid. That voice played over in my mind again. Then I was forcefully pulled back from him as Devon kicked him in his stomach. Marcus looked up at me as I looked down at him. After a few seconds he hung his head as a single tear rolled down his cheek.
"Get him the fuck out of my sight," Devon spat.
------- (Flash back)
Marcus' POV
I unlocked my door to my apartment and walked inside. I sat my bag down on the table and walked into my living room and saw Kat laying on the couch asleep. She has been working so hard to get caught up on the things she missed out on. I watched as her hair was messy when she turned over. I sat down by her feet and got on my phone. I looked at my messages and saw one from Sam.
Sam: How is she?
Me: No need to worry she's fine.
Sam: I worry that's my job and don't forget yours.
Me: Never. She's just sleeping.
Sam: Good she needs it. I was going to leave the conversation there when he texted again.
Sam:...And you.
Me: What?
Sam: I watch her. I listen to her... She likes you. She needs you for her own sanity.
Me: Sam are you drunk? you hate it when I help her out of the car.
Sam: I'm fine just... Just mark her.
Me: WHAT!! SAM YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE SAYING RIGHT!! THEN SHE'LL HAVE TO FIND OUT WHAT SHE IS! I'M A WARRIOR I SHOULDN'T MARK HER!
Sam: I FUCKING KNOW BUT YOU WILL DIE AND BE HER MATE IN HEAVEN IF YOU MARK HER FIRST! THE LAST THING WE NEED IS A QUEEN RULED BY A FUCKING DEMON!
Me: Sam... I... Don't think I could take a responsibility like that.
Sam: He orders it.
Me: Right consider it done. I put down my phone and looked at Kat who was now wake and looking at me with big eyes. She leaned over me and put her head in my lap. What Kat?! This girl teases me every damn day. I can't do it, she'll kill me. I put mt hand on her head as she starts to stir. My queen, my life, the reason i walk this place on two legs. My phone vibrates again and I look at the name, immediately answering it.
Man: Mr. Valley, It says.
"Yes?"
Man: "We need an update. The reaper hasn't gave us one in weeks." I sigh. Damn, Sam is drunk isn't he.
"I haven't seen him in a while," I lied. "She is alright, she works like a normal human," I say
"Good,"The man said.
"When and who will be marking her?" I ask feeling bold.
"Well, we are hoping it's one of us and soon,"
"Wait, are you saying that you aren't sending anyone to mark her?!" I shout. I hear Kat sit up behind me.
"Marcus?" She says in a sleepy tone. Her long black hair is all in a mess, her eyes half way shut and her tank top showing more than needed to set a guy off.
" Advancian," I say in angle tongue and hung up. I walk over to her. "Hey sleepy" i said.
"Hey sorry i didnt hear you come in," She said giving a slight yawn.
"That's fine," I sat down next to her. I started thinking about what Sam had said and the fact that he texts me drunk off his ass. Thinking about it I go through and delete the messages Sam sent me. I looked over at Kat who was rubbing her eyes and crossing her legs looking at me like a lost child.
Okay Marcus you'll have to tell her. Just walk her into it.
" so Kat," I started out. She looked at me. Oh sweet holy Lord she needs to pull up her tank top I mean really. Keep it together! I scolded myself. "I was thinking about going to a bar tonight if you want to join." I said looking away from her chest.
"Like a hangout or a date?," she said leaning into me. This woman has way to much power over me.
"Well I um.." She laughed and stood up.
"It's a date then," she said "I need to go home and grab a few things I'll see you at 8," she said and walked out the door.
I have to mark her and I have to tell her. I stood up and walked over to the window. I love you my Queen. My Queen of the Warriors. All shall be revealed tonight.
~small time skip to the bar.
I walked Kat into the bar stealing glances at her when I can. She was wearing a blue tank top and jeans. Her hair was down and had a mind of its own.
I walked her across over to some open bar stools. We sat down and she ordered her usual blond beer and I got my whisky. I looked over across the bar to see Sam sitting drinking what I assume isn't his first beer. He smiled and walked over to us. I stood up and met him halfway.
"You kids use protection tonight," he winked at me. I rolled my eyes and grabbed his shirt.
"Listen," I said "I'll do it but you will have to have your drunk ass remember that you told me to." I spat the final part. I let Sam go and walked over to Kat who was already done with her first beer.
"Wow kid slow your roll." I said as she order another beer.
"Marcus I never get out and drink and I've been so stressed," she said rubbing her temples. "I need a few beers." She said lifting the second bottle to her lips.
-time skip because I'm lazy and its almost midnight here.
I walk Kat out of the bar as she clings to me to stand up.
"Marcus," she said in a low tone.
"What kid?" I ask throwing her a smile.
"I didn't want to tell you this but," she looked away from me " my apartment was convicted." I stopped dead center.
"What? Why didn't you tell me?" I asked taking her hands in mine.
"We were having a good time and I didn't want you to be upset with me," she sobbed. I hugged her tightly.
"I would never be mad at you for something like this my Queen," I said.
She buried her head into my chest. "You can stay with me as long as you like."
When we got to my apartment, I placed every thing out on the couch for Kat after arguing with her why she should have the bed. But she won eventually.
I lay in my bed thinking about how I should have told her. But she's probably to drunk to under stand everything.
Boom a large crack of lightning lit up the room. Moments later Kat wondered into my room.
"Marcus," she whispered.
"Yeah kid?" I asked looking to face her figure.
"I don't like storms." She said looking at the ground in embarrassment. I giggled slightly at her.
"What ever kid," I said in a teasing tone. "Just get in the bed already. She climbed in and faced me.
"I'm so sorry Marcus," she said.
"Never be sorry about being afraid," I told her. Anther large crack of thunder rattled through the apparent. Kat jumped and snuggles closer. I was in shock for a minute but then I put my arm protectively around her.
"Not that. I'm sorry that you take care of me like I'm some kid." She said giving a slight yawn. And with that she was asleep.
"You Katherina, are no ordinary human. You are gifted from the Lord himself who saw your birth and gave a baby girl with nothing, everything. You are the Queen of angles. The women who will stand beside them when they defeat sin and all evil. You will live a long happy life in heaven when your human form dies." A single tear dropped onto my cheek. "And I am the warrior that was gifted at birth to protect you. You are the most beautiful girl I have ever laid eyes on." And with that I also was asleep.
