Lucifer's POV We spent days at the waterfall and every morning was a whole different experience for me. I began to see the good in everything. I began to admire the sun, appreciating the beautiful blue skies. I appreciated nature too and there was this radiant smile on my face and it was coming right from inside of me. I was full of happiness and joy. Was this what it was to be truly in love? I had no doubts it was. The feelings was so pure and true. I would do anything to make this feeling last forever. Not only I was having this same glow in and out of me. Ash was having it too. Her smiles and laughter were never ending and they were very infectious on me. Her vibrance had its effects on me too. I would do whatever it takes to keep her this way. Keep her happy. Keep her smiling. Never a single day would she have a cause to be sad. Never would I let her have a reason to regret giving me her heart. I stood before the waterfall having beautiful thoughts about her and the very image
Lucifer's POVThe beating of my heart pounded in my heart so hard I could feel my ears drumming as every bit of blood felt like it was draining from my body. I felt like I was in a dream. Like I was standing in front of an illusion. It was impossible. The dead could not come back to life. Not in this part of Glasgow. Witches have been in extinct and any one caught in the act was executed. Flashes of the night she died went through my head. I killed her myself. Not intentionally, but I did murder her. She smiled. Exactly as before. There was not a single change in her either. Was I hallucinating? No. I have not even thought of her for a very long time. "Is this a way to welcome your love back, Lucifer?" She asked, still with a smile. Hopefully someone would wake me up from this dream. This was a dream, I was sure of it. "This cannot be true." I said, finding it hard to breathe properly and momentarily forgetting Ashlyn was by my side. She smiled again. "It is true, Lucifer. I have
Lucifer's POV I would never have believed it even in my wildest dreams that Celine would ever return here. To me. I did not have the luxury to ask her why now for this new development has suddenly brought unexplainable chaos to my life. I laid on the bed with Ashlyn curled to my body, locking her away from hearing my thoughts as Celine flooded my head. Images of how we met and the few months I had spent with her. I did not know what I should call the affection I had for her back then. Was it love or was it just pure attraction? One thing I could agree to was it was different from what I was feeling for Ashlyn. Way different from it. My love for Ashlyn was unconditional and.. Just then, my thoughts was interrupted by several knocks on the door. Ashlyn stirred up in her sleep. "Who could that be?" She asked. "I do not know," I said to her. "Let me see who it is." I added, placing a kiss on her head and leaving the bed. I walked towards the door and opened it. There was Celine standi
Ashlyn's POV Dawn took extremely too long to come and I guessed it was due to my over excitement for today. Noon did the same thing and when evening slowly approached, I was seated in front of the vanity mirror with Roselia and a couple other ladies beside me. Catriona had returned back to her homeland with her brother and it was crazy how much I missed having her around. Right now, I was surrounded by ladies I see in the pack, but do not know them and that I had barely associated with. It was all going to change when I finally become the Lady of the house. The Luna of the Nightwing pack. Fuss was made over my nails of what nail polish color would fit perfectly on it. I let them make the fuss cause I did not care much about it. I just wanted to be linked arm in arm with my groom and tell him ' I do'. They finally decided on a chic blue nail polish coupled with a glitter lacquer polish for design. It did turn out great and my toe nails were given a nude nail polish color after mi
Ashlyn's POV He was no longer wearing his wedding attire, but his usual signature look. Long black breeks, knee boots and sleeves unbuttoned to his chest. "Satisfied your cravings?" He asked me, not in a cold, harsh or sweet way. I could not tell what he was thinking, for he was not portraying any emotions. I shook my head. "I did not do it. I controlled myself." I said to him. Anger flashed in his eyes and he quickly masked it. "Good for you." He said rising to his feet and walked past me. "I'm sorry." I said turning around to his retreating figure. I did not know if he wanted an apology, but to me he deserved it. He turned around sharply and this time I could see his emotions. It was anger and he was trying to control it. "For what?" He asked in pretense. "For leaving when the wedding was still in hold." I replied, looking down at my feet. The smell of blood was not gone and I was beginning to wonder where it was from. "Spare me." He said, walking away. "Lucifer, please, I'
Lucifer's POV I sat on the couch rubbing my aching neck the next morning. I was not fully awake yet due to the fact that I had a very uncomfortable and sleepless night. I had slept on the couch due to my anger towards Ash, and now I was regretting it. Maybe I should not have gone to sleep while still upset with her but, I just could not believe what she had come up with just for me to look past her mistake. Steel too had added to my sleepless night with his talks and anger toward me. I was glad he finally kept quiet this morning. "Did you sleep on the couch?" I heard Celine's voice and looked up to see her standing behind a couch opposite me. I groaned. "Yeah, I did," I said to her. "On your wedding night?" She asked raising a brow. I frowned at her. "Are you here to mock me or say something better?" I asked her. I was not in a big mood for taunts or teasing. She knew very well I did not get married yesterday. "Why would I mock you, Lucifer? You claim she's your mate and she cl
Ashlyn's POVIt was noon when I finally stepped out of my room. I walked down the stairs feeling very famished. Hungry for food and a little blood too. I walked into the kitchen to find Roselia making lunch with a few helps in the kitchen too. "Just a few minutes, milady and lunch would be ready." She said just as if she knew why I was here. I chuckled as I went towards a tin of biscuits. "I can have this till lunch is ready init?" I asked her. She smiled. "Yes, milady." She said. I opened the tin of biscuits and munched on a few before heading out of the kitchen. Maybe I should speak to Lucifer and see if I could get a bag of blood or two. I walked towards the living room and saw Alpha Hawking walking into the house with his beta beside him. His eyes lit the instant he saw me. "My days on earth have been blessed to have seen the goddess of beauty herself this noon." He said to me. I faked a smile at his flattery. I really do not know why Lucifer trusted this man when everything
Ashlyn's POV He held me in arms in that position for a long time till my tears could no longer flow down my cheeks. I raised my head up to look at him, and his was filled with warm emotions. He held my chin in between his thumb and index finger. "There's never going to be another woman in my life, Ash. Not in this life or the next." He said to me and I believed him. I should have known it was another scheme of Celine to separate us. I do believe him but why does he not believe me? I opened my mouth to speak, but he stopped me. "Do not say a word." He said as he placed his lips on mine. • Morning approached quickly and the familiar warmth that laid beside me last night was gone and replaced with an empty and cold bed. I opened my eyes and indeed Lucifer was no longer beside me. I got up to a sitting position on the bed and sighed. Then I had a weird feeling that everything was about change. Just then, Lucifer walked into my room. The door was still broken and unfixed. He was a
