Free Seraphina: Initiation by Sheena Hutchinson

can do are …unexplainable!”
    “What do you mean?” I ask curiously.
    “The fact that you have powers, like
conjuring things. Only pure Angels can do such things. I
don ’ t even want to get into what you did
with the possession in front of your house last week because I have never seen any Angel do anything like that!” I can feel his heart
beat increase as he is becoming more and more animated.
    “ But, I
don’ t understand... ” I relay
trying to get a better grip on things.
    “My blood should only have enhanced your
senses and helped things like your strength, agility, and speed
because you’re still Human. What you have appears to be pure Angel traits . It makes me think that
something was in your blood before me .” He pauses for me to
take it all in and I turn my head to look up at him to continue.
“I’ve been doing some research and I think I may know what it could
be. Centuries ago, there was a group of Angels that fell to Earth
because they wanted to mate with human women. They created this
race of hideous giants that were labeled Nephilim. It ’ s been said that God created the flood to get rid
of that race and start anew with Noah and his family. It seemed to
work, no one ever saw them again. But in all my research, it was
never proved that they were in fact, extinct. Over the centuries
the deformities would have gradually disappeared and they would be
able to live amongst the humans. Some not even knowing their own
heritage. I think that you may be a descendant of that race. It
would have been so dormant in your blood after so many generations
you would have never known, but when my blood entered you it
sparked something. It awakened what lay dormant in you all this
entire time.”
    “So, what does that make me now?” I try to
clarify.
    “I ’ m not exactly
sure, I thought it meant that you were an Angel. But, the fact that
someone can still invade your dreams tells me you ’ re still human. ”
    “So…we are back at square one!” I conclude
sarcastically.
    “Well, I have to say the fact that you are
so good at your senses and the fact that your powers are like
nothing I’ve ever seen before, I have to say I think you are more
Angel than human.” he admits running his fingers through his
hair.
    “Hmm,” I mumble, I ’ m a little amazed and intrigued, “So if
I ’ m an Angel, does that make me immortal
now?”
    “ I don’ t know, I
would say yes, but I don ’ t want to test
that theory!” he adds sternly.
    “Are you ever going to stop being so over
protective?”
    “Not a chance!” He quips back with a laugh
that makes a smile cross my own face.
    “So how come it seems like my powers are
stronger than yours at times?” it’s something I’ve been wondering
for a while now.
    “I’m not exactly sure, I’ve been looking
into that. It could be because my blood is so fresh in your system
or it could be that your descendant was a higher ranking Angel than
me,” he pauses before adding, “The only person who would know I’m
not exactly on speaking terms with,” he states indicating the end
of that conversation.
    I sit for a few minutes against his chest as
I take this all in. Everything he ’ s
saying makes sense, I do feel as if something deep within me has
awakened. It could even explain why I never felt like I belonged
here in this world, why I felt like I was bigger than this. I sigh
and another thought comes to my mind.
    “Nate, I’ve been meaning to ask…” I glance
up at him again, but he ’ s waiting for me
to continue, “How come whenever I ’ m
attacked by something demonic or possessed it seems to happen in a
different dimension?”
    “Because it is,” he answers honestly before
adding, “ Humans can not see what you can,
when an attack happens it occurs on a divinity plane so things that
you see occurring aren’t going to be apparent in the secular
plane.” he finally explains to me.
    “But how come Jack can ’ t see it?” I blurt
