Ryan approached Michael, fire in his golden eyes and determination prominent in his expression.
“Another one…” A sigh rose from the celestial as he looked up from his paperwork. He wasn’t even sure how the state had made it past the barrier to the mansion, but he didn’t care too much at this point. “What do you want?”
Ryan didn’t hesitate for a beat. His hand immediately reached for the knife and, one slice of his palm later, he was smearing the crimson blood onto the contract. “Will I… Will I ever be able to see her again?”
The contract rolled itself up and disappeared in a poof of smoke. The celestial hummed, closing his eyes. “It all depends, I suppose. I wouldn’t give up hope, though. Perhaps you will meet again.” With that, Ryan’s body faded as his soul was transferred to Hell.
