Fallen Into Hell: Fallen: Book 2 Layna Snow (feel good books .txt) 📖

the darkness. The light didn’t reach this far. In fact, there was a large rock in front of it—thanks to some quick thinking and some innovation—so no one would know that there was a tunnel there at all.

He’d need to remove it before pushing the woman in. And as much as he didn’t want to leave her alone with only a blade for protection, he needed both hands to open the damn door. As fierce as she was when she killed that Demon, she did not have to strength to push the rock away from the entrance.

Just as he went to turn towards the rock, he heard a gasp.

What the fuck now?

Were there rampaging elephants? But then again, it could be that more Hoard Demons were attacking.

Adrian turned back, taking in the girl’s shocked, and terrified, expression.

He panned around, to figure out if there was some issue that he should be addressing.

Then he saw it. Saw what gave her the freak out.

A man stood in the middle of a… well hoard of Demons. He, too, was bent, even though he stood farther down, in a taller area, which just showed how massively tall he was. He was bald, his torso uncovered, save for the gallons of Lesser blood coating him, hiding his dark brown skin.

He would look insane, if not for the utterly calm way he destroyed the Demons. He hacked through their bodies in smooth motions, taking out many at once. His thick muscles bulged at the movements, effortless.

Boy was he ever glad that Death was on his side today! And that the Demons were so distracted by their brethren’s screaming, that they practically left Sin and his guest alone, for now. Instead, they attacked the big muscled man who looked to be a much juicer snack.

Not that Sin wanted to give it a go. He’d rather snack on the brunette beside him.

“That’s Thanatos, better known as the Greek God of Death. Ain’t he great? But he’s not going to distract them forever. Soon they will realize that we’re getting away and come back. Just keep a lookout and yell if anything comes this way. Okie dokie, smoky?”

He didn’t wait for a reply, simply put his knife away and gripped the rock, planting his feet firmly on the ground before giving a large shove. The boulder scraped along the hard, dirt packed ground, and revealed a dark tunnel.

There were no lights inside, not even dim ones like the one that Death brought with him to the fight. No, this tunnel connected some pretty seedy places and it was best not to draw attention to themselves. Hell, he’d rather not draw attention down here at all, at least not if he wanted to avoid a fight.

Actually, never mind. He usually wanted to pick a fight with any baddie in Hell---save one of course—and he could change his mind if he fucking wanted to!

This time, he wanted to stay under the radar. He didn’t think this woman would appreciate it much if he got her killed because he wanted to have a little fun.

Sin didn’t stop and bother to ask, he just wrapped his arm around the girl and picked her up, only to deposit her in the dark opening. He then went in after her, pushing her back even more. There was only a few feet illuminated. And he could tell that she was trying to stay in the light patches. Unfortunately, she wouldn’t feel safe for long. Because just as quickly, he took hold of a large crack in the stone and pushed it back into place.

Which not only blocked the monsters, but blocked out the light as well.

As soon as he shut it, he heard another gasp.

Couldn’t the lady do something more impressive? Well, maybe not a full blown scream—that would call the bigger Demons to them—maybe a squeak?

Great! She was afraid of the dark. Oh well, she’d just have to suck it up and get over it, because they had a long way to go before they got to somewhere with more light.

Adrian took her hand and led her along the passageway. She was reluctant, but he didn’t give her any time to object.

He’d drag her if he had to, but he’d prefer not to. It would slow him down, and might hurt some of that delicate skin that he couldn’t wait to get his hands on.

The woman was unusually silent during the trip.

He was sure that she would be complaining by now, maybe whining. He knew many girls who would be, and many who have. But she just stayed quiet as he pulled her down one tunnel only to turn down another.

He knew this path off by heart. He could do it with his eyes closed, of course that wouldn’t do shit, since it was already dark as fuck down here.

But he could do it in his sleep. He made sure of it. He wouldn’t get caught unaware.

Sin kept his senses open, trying to determine if anything else was out there. He trusted his sixth sense— instinct—as much as he trusted the other five. He would be ready if something were to attack.

Keeping on guard constantly left him feeling a little anxious. But it was a good feeling. It showed him that he was always prepared. It left him confident in his own abilities.

By the time that they got to another rock they had traveled for about twenty minutes.

Adrian was really glad that Thanatos had decided to hunt in an area closer to the New Mexico Hellgate. If not, they would have been in a world of trouble.

Well, the girl would have been anyways.

He was happy to be back now, though.

He didn’t even tell the woman, just dropped her hand and pulled the rock door open. Once inside, he quickly deactivated
