Afonja - Episode 2
His thunderous voice echoed in the darkness of Hell’s cavern. ?ya moved swiftly across the rubbles and spilt wine that piled at the feet of Iku’s throne. Iku and his allies were at it again, partying over the souls they had acclaimed the night before.
Scrunching her nose, she moved to his side “Why is this still here,” she moved even closer; she was the only one till date to get that close.
Tightening his jaw, he raised his gaze to meet hers and pinned her with his heated glare. Unfazed, she twirled her finger around his dark locks and leaned to touch his bejewelled crown . “You know how I don’t like dirts”
He grunted and leaned away from her fingers “Where is the soul,” his voice dropped an octave and only because ?ya was too familiar with him was there a hint of childish excitement detected in his gruff voice.
She crossed her arms and formed her lips in a thin line “You will get your soul as soon as we have this place cleared”
The glare Iku shot her sent chills down her spine and against the hot atmosphere, she shivered.
Iku was getting impatient and could not help but wonder why ?ya’s eyes kept darting back and forth, her tongue reaching to wipe her lips every few seconds. He wondered if she was stalling but for what reason...Sometimes she got emotional with the souls as much as her nature would let her but that’s was it

. She always submitted the soul in the end.
“Don’t tempt my patience, ?ya” he squinted at her, his heated glare penetrating her dark soul. “I smell a big fish, hand over to me my dinner before I replace it with you”
?ya wrapped her arms around herself, she knew an empty threat when she saw one and as much as she knew Iku could never wipe her existence, a tinge of fear still hooked unto her mind. “I am not testing your patience,” she made attempts to tighten her jaw and look confident, Iku’s threat could only go a little way if you appeared confident “I just want a neat environment for the soul to come in. It is a masterpiece and we don’t want to welcome it here,” She held her breath and waited for him to decide. As seconds passed and his hardened face remained cadaver-still, every layer of her confidence fell through.
She had put her hands in blood and committed herself to a path she knew she could never walk through and even with the warning bells that had rung continuously she had ignored all signs and dipped herself in a heap of unclearable mess. She was Iku’s favourite but not even that could take away the wrath and graven punishment she had brought upon herself.
Nervously tapping her feet, she hoped things would work in her favour and maybe she would be forgiven for this once that she had broken the unbreakable laws of Hell.
It was very unlikely…
