After the Fall ba-2 Page 18


  She looked around the room, and except for Jeremy, Lash, and herself, it seemed like everyone knew where the conversation was going.

  “Yes, I’m sure.” Rebecca placed a hand in Raphael’s. “What is your question?”

  Lash swallowed. “Is Lucifer my father?”

  She closed her eyes and bit down on her lip as if wanting to keep in the answer. She took a breath and opened them, looking directly at Lash.

  “Yes.”

  Pain flashed across Lash’s face at the simple answer. “Raphael, you told me...you told me you were my father.”

  “I told you that I was always a father to you. And I always will be, no matter what,” he said.

  “Lucifer said he was my father. I didn’t want to believe him, but something inside of me knew it was true. It’s just...” he took a shaky breath and turned to Rebecca. “I don’t understand. How could you...and Lucifer...you were married to Raphael! You already had Jeremy!”

  Rebecca winced at his accusations.

  “I’m sorry,” he said, trying to calm himself. “Raphael’s right. He is my father. That’s all I need to know.”

  Rebecca got up from her seat and sat next to him, placing an arm around him. “Lahash, Jeremiel, you both have a right to know. This family’s secrets have been going on for too long, and they have done great harm to all of us. Now is the time for healing. It’s time you know the true story about a family of broken angels.”

  Naomi looked around the room. All eyes were set on Rebecca. She was finally going to hear it all. Even though she had memories of her past life back, there were still some things that didn’t make sense.

  She took hold of Lash’s hand. With the expression on Rebecca’s face, she could tell it wasn’t going to be easy to hear. He looked at her, leaned in, and kissed her cheek. “Together?”

  “Together,” she said.

  Rebecca took a deep breath and then started her story. “It all began in 1400 BC when I met and fell in love with an archangel named Raphael.”
