*Harry's POV*

I say goodbye to Hudson. He was staying here tonight to check up on a few things.

When I reach the first floor, I start towards the door but something stops me. A loud growl comes from behind me but when I look back, nothing is there. I can hear the sound of claws on the tile floor.

I turn back around and come face to face with beading red eyes and a long snout.

"Neiko, leave him be. He's with us." Talon says from behind the wolf. "This is Harry."

The wolf's eyes turn to hazel and he backs away. He bows his head and looks up at me.

"Sorry master." his raspy voice cracks.

I nod and lock eyes with Talon, he nods. I wave goodbye and exit the building, my boots hitting the pavement with a thud.

All around, I can see red eyes scattered throught the treeline. Talon kept his promise. The school is safe.

With Talon on my side, Father doesn't stand a chance.

*Williams POV*

The only reason I started The Angel Resistance was to put a stop to Edric. Harry is right, I just can't bring myself to admit it.

I ventured away from the Resistance to clear my mind.

I have been walking for a while and dawn was now starting to creep up on me.

Something catches my eye over in the bushes, for a piece of black metal shines in the sun. Then I remember.

The gates to hell.

I decide to pay my 'friend', Edric a visit.

As I make my way down, the tempature begins to change. Goosebumps rise on my arms. I begin to see my breath. The morning light begins to fade but before it disappears, the tunnel is lit by firelight.

I emerge from the tunnel and take in my surroundings. Fire casts shadows on the walls as well as the angels. Or should I say demons.

Before anyone can notice me, sneak over to the big doors in the center of the back wall. Two guards blocked my path, preventing me from entering.

"Tell him," I hesitate before continuing. "Tell him William Stone is here to see him."

Their eyes widen before pushing the doors open.

There he sits. The one man I despised so much. The one man who ruined everything for me.

He looks up and smiles. "Ah William. How are you my brother?"

*Samantha's POV*

The sunlight slowly makes it through my bedroom window, casting a yellow glow over my bed.

I burry my head deeper into my pillow, only to find that I wasn't resting on my pillow. My head was burried into Harry's side. He stirs, but then flips onto his side.

I wrap my arm around his torso and snuggle into his back.

"Morning love." he whispers.

"Morning handsome."

He chuckles, turning back over to face me. He grabs the duvet and pulls it up to our chins. He entangles his legs with mine and pulls us closer to him.

I kiss his nose making him smile.

"I want to lie here, just us two. Forever." Harry smiles.

I blush and close my eyes. Harry kisses my forhead and wraps me tighter in his arms.

I can hear the front door open, then close. Two sets of footsteps run up the stairs and make their way to my room.

"Sammy!"

"Jack!" I sit upright, yanking the blankets off of Harry and I, causing him to groan from the cold air.

I twist the knob and open the door, almost pulling it off it's hinges. My little brother jumps into my arms and I hold him tight. Man I have missed him.

Jack plays with my ponytail, twisting my hair in his small fingers. "I missed you Sammy."

I give him a kiss on his forehead and look down to the small blonde infront of me.

"Hi Peyton."

She smiles and latches onto my leg. "Hi Sammy."

Harry walks over to my side and smiles down at me. Peyton looks up to him and lifts her arms up. Harry smiles and reaches for her.

We carry the children downstairs. Bradley is leaning against the counter with a cup of coffee in his hands. His eyes have that far away look in them.

"Brad." I whisper. Nothing. "Bradley!"

He looks up at me and then to Jack. He smiles a weak smile but then looks back down into his cup.

I look at Harry and he shrugs.

Harry walks towards the glass sliding doors that lead to the back garden. I furrow my eyebrows, wondering what he's doing. He looks at me and flicks his head, motioning for me to join him.

Bradley is still lost in his coffee so I readjust Jack so I have a better grip on him and make my way over to Harry.

He holds the door open and then closes it behind me. We set Jack and Peyton down. Jack leads her over to the tire swing, just like the one Bradley and I had at our old house.

I watch Jack push Peyton on the swing, and it immediately brings back memories.

"You okay Samantha?" Harry asks and puts his hand on my shoulder.

"Yeah." I smile, watching the two kids.

"They remind you of you and Bradley, huh?"

I nod, a single tear falling down my cheek. Harry pulls me into his arms, rubbing my back and tells me everything is going to be okay.

"Thanks Harry. Thanks for everything."

"Anything for you my love."
