Smokes was not the kind of place to be opened during the day and Liam was grateful for that. He sat on the bar stool beside Leticia who didn't feel quite comfortable in the bar, it reeked of alcohol and vomit and was really stuffy. She noticed that the windows were kept shut and the only light here came from the red bulbs hanging on different places in the ceiling, you couldn't tell if it was day or night in here.

She shifted uncomfortably in her seat and reached for the bottle of Asphax, wondering if she should apply more. She looked up over the counter, the demon girl whom she had come to know as Phidian was busy fixing coffee, She had her back to her. Leticia squeezed the bottle of Asphax in her hand.

"You're fine." She heard Liam's voice in her head. She looked at him, his head was down an his eyes were closed, he kept drumming his fingers on the counter. "Don't go anywhere, just sit still."

Phidian turned with two cups of coffee in her hands which she placed in front of them. Liam looked up and smiled at her before picking up his cup, bringing it to his lips and taking a sip. Leticia stared at her cup for the longest, the dark liquid was unsettled and the steam rising from it danced in the air before disappearing. She side eyed Liam and looked up at Phidian, the demon kept her eyes on her with a smirk on her face like she was saying, 'drink it if you dare'. Leticia looked down at the cup.

"Drink, it's not poisoned." She looked at Liam and frowned. He was in her head again.

"I know." She voiced out. She brought the cup up and took a sip. Ugh! swallowing it in a rush and dropped the cup, she squeezed her face in disgust. The coffee was too bitter.

"What? Too strong for you?" Phidian teased, Leticia glared at her knowing that she had done this on purpose, if she wouldn't poison the cup then she wouldn't let her enjoy it either.

"Liam liked his coffee that way," she continued, "I thought you would too."

"You seem to know very much about Liam, what he likes and prefers and what he doesn't." Leticia smiled, trying to remain calm.

"Of course!" Phidian looked at Liam. "I've known him longer than you have so I know practically everything about him."

"Ahh, everything. I see." Leticia searched for something that would make the demon upset, she didn't like the fact that she was having fun. She smiled and looked into her cup as she spoke. "Everything, but you didn't know where be spent the night last night."

Phidian snapped her head at Leticia. "I know...."

"Or with whom." Leticia cut her off with a coy smile and brought the cup to her lips again but the strong aroma reminded her of the taste so she put it back down.

Phidian was vexed, she glared at the female Angel in front of her and wondered what exactly was so special in her that Liam liked. That they spent the night together didn't mean that they did anything together. But even thinking about that bothered her a lot.

"Do you have milk? Or sugar?" Leticia asked calmly with a smile still on her lips.

Phidian laughed. "Where do you think you are? In a land flowing with milk and honey?" She scoffed and walked away.

Liam sat comfortably still, his back arched and one elbow propped up on the counter, his other hand held the cup close to his lips, continuously tilting it so he could drink the liquid. His mind went back to Leticia's memory, the memory he had seen after they had bonded. The girl was determined in finding her younger brother who had suddenly gone missing but his thoughts were distracted by the noise of the door banging shut. He turned to see a human casually walk in, a silly look on his scrunched face. He knew this human, he knew him all too well.

Ben walked in casually, one had shoved into his pocket and the other wiping off the invisible dust on his left pocket, he glanced over at the counter and his brows came up when he spotted Liam, the famous renegade Angel. Phidian only glanced at him once when she walked back to the counter before going back to what she was doing and then there was the third, one he had never seen before. He watched her watch him curiously, her face holding no readable expression. He walked towards them and the girl turned away from him and back to the counter.

"Liam, you've been a regular around here." He spoke when he got close enough, coming to stand in between Liam and the new girl. He habitually sniffed her secretly and his head snapped sharply in her direction, Leticia flinched at the sudden action and eyed him intently, tilting her body back away from him.

"You're new around here, aren't you?" He asked studying the girl's face, the dim red lights didn't help him in his assessment. "Where are you from? I know almost every Angel around these parts."

Leticia's heart began to beat steady, for a minute she thought he had figured what she was. "You're human? And you walk freely."

He grinned, lifting his shoulders up. "Ahh yes, some of us have the errr... privilege."

"What did your master send you to get, slave?" Liam said swirling the coffee in his cup and without looking at Ben, it was evident in his voice that he didn't want him around. "Do that and leave quickly."

"Slave?" Leticia thought.

Ben snickered and turned his attention on Phidian, the demon girl watched him with both hands crossed on her chest. He studied her, carried momentarily away by the full lumps of round flesh on her chest which was largely exposed. He had felt her skin once when she had been new to the business, his master Renard had ordered for her to be punished when she still worked for him and he had been more than willing to carry out his master's wishes. He had felt the curve of her waist, the fullness of her lips trapped in his and her fingers clawing at his chest to push him away, he still carried those scars but he hadn't been able to have her yet. And he would, soon enough.

He licked his lips at her and she rolled her eyes, looking away.

"Phidian..." He began but she cut him off.

"Don't. You know who you should talk to but yet you come to me?"

"I was hoping to find you alone..."

Liam's fist caught the side of his jaw, sending the man crashing down with a bashed lip. Leticia and Phidian gasped staring at him. Liam heaved, his anger getting the best of him and he smashed the coffee cup into the man's head before dragging him outside.

"Tell your master there are no humans for sale and if you dare cuddle up any lusting for Phidian again..!" He spat and flung the man into the street, slamming the door shut.

@Ozzyy @Hanzell I know I took a while. Lol, I'm sorry....
