Seeing the pain wash across Sonia's face almost made Shelly feel something.
"I don't know!" Shemhazau answered Sonia, ignoring Shelly. "The person rarely ever survives long after. They have no sense of self preservation. I've never had the chance to try anything."
"Can we get Amenadiel to reverse it?" Sonia pressed.
"Angels aren't capable of giving or causing guilt. That's something that has to come from the person's soul. Amenadiel tore that part of her out. She can no more grow that part back than could a regular human grow back an arm that was cut off." A couch appeared behind Shemhazau, and he fell into it.
So, she was missing part of her soul? That was almost entertaining. A memory flickered across her mind of how miserable she'd been before the angel took it all away. She didn't know if she was better off without it, or feeling something that strong would be better than this numbness.
