His name was Satan. Satan had once been the most beautiful angel, but he didn’t want to be just an angel-he wanted to be God. He grew proud and evil full of hate, and God had to send him out of heaven. Satan was seething with anger and looking for a way to hurt God. He wanted to stop God’s plan, stop this love story, right there. So he...
