First Couple, My Sweet Werewolf, Chapter 1

In the morning, as always Raphael woke up around 5am and knelt in front of the beautiful white cross that was hanging on the wall. “Dear God, Thank you for all your protection. My wish is still just that one thing. I want to have a special person. Just one.. Give me a precious one and I’ll definitely hold that person dear. Pl…”

“Is that true?” A familiar voice suddenly resounded directly into his mind, just at the same time when the blue haired angel felt another presence that’s also [irritatingly] familiar.

A gentle smile spread across his lips before he spoke, “Well, it is true. But when I pray you should just ignored that as always.” It’s just a habit after watching human anyway, “…So please don’t disturb my morning.”

He could just picture that person’s pouting face as he whined, “How could you say that? You’re the one who disturb my morning. Just when I am ready for second ro… Ouch!!”  And at that time, the tall 195cm male could also imagine how loud the hit given to his superior’s head from how abruptly His line replaced with loud groan.

“What the hell did You telling him?!!” A sigh escaped his lips when he heard another voice being sent directly toward him. He didn’t know whether that other person synchronized his power without him knowing or on purpose. But at least, he knew whose voice it was.. Seraphim, his colleague, both of them are arc-angels.

“Hi there, Seraphim” Raphael stood up as he pictured a smiled after channeling back to the rowdy lovers. But the channel didn’t seem to last long as it got cut after the next line from the other arc-angel.

“Uh, hi too.. Well, if you excuse me..” His tone seemed so.. Embarrassed. The image of that man putting his clothes hastily could be pictured easily by his brain. From their conversation he concluded that last night they… You knew what it was.

Sky colored eyes directed to the door that would lead him into the bathroom. He strode toward it as he must prepare himself to go to the office. It must be strange thinking about that, but it was the truth. Unlike what human think, even angels have an office to work on. But, once again, unlike humans, angels just have one office to work. The purpose of course was to maintain peace and balance.

Raphael was one of the five leaders under the direct control by God. Those five leaders were all Arc-angels that each had their own branches to take care. For example, the main character at this story had personal branch that focus of healing. Well, there are just five Arc-Angels in this world, that consisted by Raphael, Cherubim, Gabriel, Michael, and Seraphim. They actually had their own names, but when one became an Arc-angel, that angel will inherit the titles as his or her new name and use it as long as he or she existed.

The preparations weren’t much actually, not with how angel’s body never have the need to be washed and such. Though many of them usually did them anyway, thinking of it as a way to understand human, Rafael never did it in the morning. All he did were just brushing his teeth, loving the mint breath after the action. After that, the man that appearance looked around 25 years old went to change his pajama to a more appropriate clothes consisted with a green turtleneck behind blue knitted and sleeveless vest paired with jeans with the same but darker color than the vest and a long elegant pristine coat to the least.. He would then brushed his hair and renewed the down tie of that long hair he had before flied outside with today’s documents in hand.

“Hey, Rafa!!” His nickname was being mentioned as a red-haired angel flied toward him in his way to office. That other winged creature waved his hand, “There is a sudden meeting today. We must hurry!”

“What? A meeting? Michael, I don’t know anything about that..” A crease appeared on the area between the male’s eyebrows when the news entered his ears.

“Well, I just got the information this morning and I was ordered to tell you about this.” That angel, or should be said arc-angel, that had given him the news told him as he flapped near him.

“But, I just talked with the God!” He should’ve told me that time! The corner of Raphael’s, a.k.a. Rafa’s, thin lips twitched. They’ve sped up at the time this conversation took place. He knew he could believe the news given by this fiery arc-angel.

“He must’ve forgotten about it. He was with Sera, right?” Sharp eyes met the kind pair as the line being told. It was as if that pair of ruby said ‘It’s just the usual’ to him.

Raphael couldn’t help but to roll his eyes at the tone, “..True…” Small voice accompanied with a sigh as the word escaped his lips. It’s just the usual indeed. -…And you still using that nickname huh…- The long haired arc-angel thought. His mind flew for some second at the memory of how that golden haired secretary hated that feminine nickname. Well, that arc-angel hated nicknames in general though.

“At least we know that He will show up in the meeting,” Michael said with helpless look that didn’t really suit his rebellious appearance. He looked completely like a delinquent with the spiky red hair that some pulled to the back framing his young face, sharp challenging eyes, and all those earrings, 3 different sized metallic ones clamping the left side when he has 2 on the right. The appearance was paired with dark grey fitting v-neck t-shirt and black trousers with chains dangling. But the most prominent feature was the black colored vines like tattoo that stretched from his left side forehead down to his cheek.

“…” Helpless smile carved on the taller male’s face too. “It’s a good thing that his lover is a very competent one or else we still must play hide and seek whenever we has meeting.” He said remembering the pain they had to go through every damn time they have a meeting. All the main meetings had to be supervised by the only top of the pyramid after all, much to their displeasure. Who wanted to search for their boss who always desperate in skipping works? Certainly not them!

Yes, it’s just like what they were talking about. The God in this world was a lazy work-hater and incredibly selfish one. Even if His Godly power was so amazing that he could take them down with just lifting a hand, He would always ALWAYS slack off. There is nothing perfect’ was the quote that always appear in their head whenever they saw Him.

It’s a good thing that Seraphim became His secretary. Although there was a time which they were apart but in the end they became lover and the God never skipped his meeting ever again. I’m really glad you’re here, Seraphim!

“Hey, let’s use a shortcut!” Michael’s voice pulled him up from his deep thoughts. The younger looking male looked at him as he pointed down there, to the human world.

“Why not?” I smiled gently and flew down with him. Human world always became their shortcut to go to different places of heaven. They didn’t really know why, but it’s a fact that they could arrive to places much faster if they fly through human world than just travelled in heaven.

Michael suddenly accelerated before he shouted urgently, “Quick! There’s just 10 minutes left!”

Uh, arriving late in meeting is against my principle. Raphael followed the action as the thought went through his mind. The older one could see from the corner of his left eyes and from the wind pressure that Michael had accelerated himself further. Despite his appearance, the red haired one was a hard-worker character, so be late in a meeting was definitely much more against his principle than me. He was in front of him now.

They had been flying with speed just as fast as a bullet until something, or rather someone, entered the sky colored orbs sight. The owner of the pair abruptly stopped and looked down. A white werewolf? He is injured! Eyes widened at the sight.

The other arc-angel realized that he was no longer right behind him that he also stopped and turned back, “Rafa? What’s the matter?”

“There is an injured…”

Michael looked down with a frown created on his face when he had seen the wounded, “It’s just a werewolf! Not one worth wasting our time. Moreover, when we’re almost late.”

Even after the treaty, light and dark side still held bitter feeling and disgust toward each others, he knew that for sure.

Raphael answered with soft mumbling voice, “Well, you’re true but…” I don’t know why, but I couldn’t take my eyes from him. “I’ll treat him.” The male suddenly said resolutely, “Please just go to the meeting place without me!” After that, he quickly pulled his wings in, giving himself completely to the gravitation. This way is faster than just fly down.

“Hey, wait!” He could heard his junior’s shout from way upward when his body became smaller and smaller from his sight.
