The Godslingers X 4: Chapter 1

Quent's POV

I was in my house near camp, watching my 4-month old son Josh play with my 5-month old neice Andrea. Yulin and his army had been quiet ever since Hope and Stella's wedding. Maybe planning? I don't know. My sister Qadira was out with her boyfriend Garyll and my wife Melody was somewhere. Jeez, that lady does not know how to sit still.

So, Qadira walked in, her red hair pulled back into a ponytail, her black eyes shining with happieness. She was avidly discussing something with Garyll. Garyll's blonde hair reached halfway down his neck, and his eyes looked into Qadira's. He kissed her and she went upstairs. Then he walked up to me.

"Hello, dirtbag." I said to him.

"What?" he said, shocked.

"You heard me. Dirtbag."

"If your picking a fight..." Garyll said, pulling out a sword, "...I'll be happy to give you one."

I waved my hand. A shadow in the shape of a deformed man shot out and pinned Garyll to the ground.

"Don't pick a fight with the King of Shadows." I said.

Then Qadira came downstairs. She gasped.

"QUENT! HOW COULD YOU?!" She shouted.

"Look, Qadira, this guys trouble-" I started to say.

Then Qadira slapped me.

"Look, Qadira-"

"NO! I DON'T HAVE A BROTHER ANYMORE!" she shouted.

And then she left, leaving me in a state of shock with a shadow demon next to me.
