“Kendal, you don’t have to go, you could stay with-”
“Is there something you’ve forgotten to tell me Jay?” I asked him stopped between him and the closet crossing my arms over my chest. His eyes widened slightly, he shook his head.
“You’re sure that’s the answer you want to go with.” I almost threatened as I shoved clothes into a backpack.
“I haven’t hid anything from you Kendal.” He finally said, I zipped my backpack up and ignored my heart
thrumming in my ears. I could feel my heart breaking.
“You’re no better than him if you’re going to lie to my face.” I stated, I could feel the tears rising without my permission, and I couldn’t breathe. My breath caught in my throat, and I stared at him feeling tears welling up in my eyes. His eyes softened.
“Kendal, I’m sorry, I didn’t want you to worry and-” I shook my head making him stop.
“Don’t make promises you can’t keep anymore Jay” I almost whispered and pulled the promise ring off my finger, he watched me and I could see his face fall and he stared at me with huge eyes. He looked like he was about to cry. I didn’t know if I could do this.
I tore my eyes from him to keep myself from running to him. I looked down at the beautiful ring that was in my trembling fingers. I walked up to him and held it out to him.
“Kendal… I’m sorry I-” I could feel my heart being ripped up and my chest squeezed.
“It’s okay” I whispered to him nodding, sniffing and wiping my own tears that had fallen. He was one of the best things that had ever happened to me. I loved him with everything that I had. I could feel myself
drowning, I wanted to gasp for air.
I finally walked out setting the ring on the bed before leaving. I walked out the door not sparing a glance at my father who had obviously just given me to this monster. I went and got in the passenger side of the truck and waited. I dried my tears and swallowed back the sobs that wanted to escape me. I cleaned myself up and buried my feelings once more.
I waited for Dez, taking deep breaths, each one tore into my chest that was still tight from earlier. There was a permanent lump in my throat, and my chest was aching. Finally, Dez came outside and started the truck up and we left.
I pulled my legs up to my chest, trying to physically hold myself together, and I stared numbly out the
window.

I was strong now, and I could do this. I wasn’t going to let him see me cry.
I wasn’t going to give him the satisfaction.
“What did Jay not tell me?” I asked him finally breaking the silence, he glanced over at me. I forced myself to look at him and not show any emotion.
“You didn’t make him tell you before you left” I shook my head.
“In the demon world, they have a board of powerful demons, which Jay is on, but there is one specific demon who goes down and gets orders from Lucifer and brings them back up here. Jay took the job a while ago, and if any of the powerful demons or even Satan himself was to find out about your existence, you’d be gone, protection or not.”
“So why do you think I’m safer with you?” I asked.
“Demons won’t come on my territory.” He stated.
