CHAPTER 30 — THE VOICE BELOW
DESCENDANTS OF AZAZELCHAPTER 30 — THE VOICE BELOW"Come home."The voice came through the steel door again.Nobody moved.I could hear everything.The alarms.The electrical hum from the ceiling.Claire's breathing.Noah's heartbeat.Amy's fingers tightening around mine.And beneath all of it—that voice."Jack."I stared at the door.Something about it felt wrong.Not because it was threatening.Because it sounded familiar.Not familiar like I had heard it before.Familiar like some part of me recognized it.I took a step forward.Marcus immediately grabbed my arm."No."I looked at him."That's my name.""I know.""Then how does it know me?"Marcus didn't answer.Adrian stepped between me and the door."Nobody opens that chamber."A violent impact hit the other side.The steel door bent inward.Amy jumped.Claire covered her ears.Noah looked toward the ceiling."What is that?"Marcus stared at the door."The reason the Council built this place."Another impact.The hinges groaned.
CHAPTER 29 — THE FIRST BLOOD
DESCENDANTS OF AZAZELCHAPTER 29 — THE FIRST BLOODNobody moved.Adrian's words seemed to remain in the room long after he said them.The first blood.I looked at Noah.Then Claire.Neither of them seemed to understand what he meant.Amy stood beside me, her fingers wrapped around mine."What does that mean?" she asked.Adrian didn't answer immediately.Instead, he looked at the floor.Another deep vibration passed through the house.The glasses on the kitchen counter rattled.Claire stepped backward."What was that?"Adrian finally looked at her."Something that has been asleep for a very long time."Noah frowned."You said the first blood."Adrian nodded."That is what the old records call it.""What is it?""A bloodline."I waited.Adrian continued."Before the Nephilim blood became diluted through generations of human families, there were beings whose blood was much closer to the original source."Jack's mind immediately went to the stories his father had told him.Azazel.The Flo
CHAPTER 28 — THE COUNCIL'S DECISION
DESCENDANTS OF AZAZELCHAPTER 28 — THE COUNCIL'S DECISIONWe didn't stop.The passage was narrow, dark, and cold, but Maya kept moving.I followed closely behind her.Noah stayed beside Claire.Every few seconds, I looked back.I couldn't explain why.Maybe I expected the creature to come after us.Maybe I expected the passage to close.Or maybe I was simply afraid of what we'd find when we reached the other side.After everything we'd learned, I wasn't sure I wanted another answer."How far?" I asked.Maya didn't stop."Not far.""You said that five minutes ago.""I was hoping you'd stop asking."Noah gave a quiet laugh.Claire smiled.It was the first normal moment we'd had in hours.Then Maya stopped.Everyone almost walked into her."What?"She raised one finger."Listen."I closed my eyes.At first, I heard nothing.Then I heard it.Footsteps.Several people.Coming toward us.Noah looked at me."How many?""Six."Maya's expression changed."Council?""I don't know."The footstep
CHAPTER 27 — THE FALL
DESCENDANTS OF AZAZELCHAPTER 27 — THE FALLThe floor opened beneath us.I reached for Amy.Our fingers slipped apart."Jack!"Her voice was the last thing I heard before the stone gave way.I fell.Not far.Maybe ten feet.I hit something hard and rolled across a smooth stone surface.Pain shot through my shoulder.For a few seconds, I couldn't breathe.Then I heard Noah."Jack!""I'm here!"I pushed myself up.Noah was several feet away.Claire was between us.She had landed badly and was struggling to stand."Are you hurt?" I asked."My ankle."Noah immediately went to her."I've got you."Above us, I could hear shouting.Amy.Maya.Marcus.Then the sound of stone collapsing.I looked up.The opening we'd fallen through was already closing."Amy!"I jumped.My hands caught the edge.For a moment, I hung there.I could see her above me.She was reaching for my hand."Jack!""Grab me!"She dropped to her knees and reached farther.Our fingers touched.Then the stone shifted.Amy slip
CHAPTER 26 — THE THING BENEATH
DESCENDANTS OF AZAZELCHAPTER 26 — THE THING BENEATHThe light exploded.I heard Amy scream.Then everything disappeared.For several seconds, there was nothing.No sound.No light.No floor beneath my feet.Just darkness.Then I felt someone's hand around my wrist."Jack!"Amy.I pulled her toward me."Are you okay?""I think so."Her voice was shaking.I looked around.The room had changed.The ancient platform was still there, but the symbols covering the floor were glowing faintly.Claire was no longer falling.Noah had pulled her onto the edge of the platform.Maya was helping him.Marcus stood several feet away, his weapon raised.And Gabriel—was staring at the floor.His expression had changed.For the first time since I had seen him, he looked afraid.A deep sound came from underneath us.Not a roar.Not exactly.It sounded like something breathing.Slowly.Massively.The entire chamber seemed to rise and fall with it.Amy moved closer to me."What is that?""I don't know."G
CHAPTER 25 — THE BLOOD BELOW
DESCENDANTS OF AZAZELCHAPTER 25 — THE BLOOD BELOWThe floor shook again.Dust fell from the ceiling.I instinctively grabbed Amy's hand.Noah was still chained to the wall.Evelyn stood several feet away, watching all of us."What is happening?" Amy asked.Nobody answered.Another tremor ran through the building.This time, the lights flickered back on.For half a second, I saw something beneath the floor.A symbol.Huge.Circular.It had three sections, each connected to the other.Three bloodlines.Three children.I looked at Evelyn."You knew this was here."She didn't deny it."Yes.""What is it?""The reason you were born."I felt a chill."No."Evelyn looked at me."You think your awakening was an accident?""I thought my blood awakened because I was about to die.""It did."She stepped closer."But something was waiting for you to awaken."Noah pulled against his chains."Let me go."Evelyn looked at him."Not yet.""You kidnapped me.""I saved you."Noah laughed bitterly."Fr
