Brand had stormed from the coffee shop knowing he couldn’t carry off Lucifer’s plan. Not after glimpsing Kaylea. Christ, he hadn’t expected that Gage and Jadyn’s daughter would be such a bright, gorgeous, vivacious woman. One who made him feel things he hadn’t felt in a long time. Something about the way her eyes glistened with love and laughter when she talked with her friend really got to him, down deep, awakening things he’d long ago buried.. Everything from her feminine lilac scent, her smile and her mannerisms, to the melodic sound of her laughter was infectious, and for a brief moment she made him remember what it was like to love, not hate. He’d fled the café ready to call it off, ready to spend the rest of his time on Earth between the legs of someone who was already marked, but then, inexplicably, as if driven by a greater force, something compelled him to turn around. He wasn’t sure why he’d turned back, when all he wanted to do was run away and fuck Kaylea out of his mind, but nevertheless, he’d ventured back into Halo. The second he’d flung open the door and glimpsed Gage and Jadyn sharing an intimate moment behind the counter, holding onto each other in a loving embrace like they hadn’t a carein the world, his anger came back tenfold and reminded him that they’d left him behind to suffer at the hands of Lucifer. Turmoil reverberated through his blood, and urged him to carry forth with his mission.
