She’d been warned, of course, but she hadn’t believed – not really. This was Adrian, her friend and the highest-ranking angel in Heaven. The idea of him doing something this outrageous … When Michael first approached her about it, she’d thought he was being overly cautious. Paranoid. Ridiculous. After what she’d just heard, though, she was starting to think otherwise. And that was … dangerous. To say the least. As she closed her eyes and focused on her flight to Earth, her wings tucked against her sides, she thought back over the last hours. Michael had come to her with another angel, Seraphine, who claimed that Adrian was plotting a revolution. Adrian is holding secret meetings with others, making plans against the Creator, Seraphine told her, with urgency and ferocity in her voice. He’s promising a new order in Heaven, gathering angels and telling them that a revolution is coming. He wants us to stand with him against our lord, and promises to give us the power once he’s in charge.
