Devil's Pathway

by Vicki V. Lucas

Can evil spirits walk around like men? For, truly, I know of one such man that cannot have any human decency in him. Surely he is a demon.They say the Devil lives at the center of the earth. Perhaps there are pathways up to the surface where he can traverse, bringing his evil spirits with him. Do they camp at the entrance of such pathways, ready to flee back down into the earth when the angels of light come? This I believe, for this is such a place, where the Devil himself rules, confident that the angels of light will never come, where his demons and evil spirits reside and destroy.***I force myself to live by one Don’t look at the demons. The two times I broke this rule still haunt me. And then tonight I made another mistake. As a huge demon leered at us, I couldn’t fight the urge. I looked. And he saw me. Blood is coming.Maybe it’s not a big deal. Nothing happened as my aunt sped beyond it in the car. Besides, I only have one year of high school left. I’ll be fine. But I know exactly what can happen. I’ve seen the horror, grief, and blood too many times. Two men lurked with the demon I saw tonight. Evil clung to them, as if they had given their souls in exchange for something else. I shudder when I consider what they could be. But do vampires really exist? With everything I've seen, I wouldn't be too surprised. Where are the good guys? If there’s darkness, shouldn’t there be light? How come the angels don’t battle the demons if that is the case? Or do they? It’s becoming clear that there’s a war around me that most don’t see. I don’t want to see it – angels or anything. I just want to be left alone, and after tonight, I don’t think that’s going to be a choice.*** This young adult fantasy novel weaves angels, demons, and vampires into a thrilling adventure in which angels and humans wage war on demons and vampires. ***Nic, the main character, is forced into choosing which side of the spiritual war he is on while both sides are desperately urging him to join their army.
