Lucifer's Desire

“Lucifer! Stop it!” I used my strength to cover his mouth while trying to stop him from kissing me.

But that night, Lucifer seems so unstoppable. He’s already forcing me to make love with him in bed. I know that we’re already married but he just forced me to marry him at the first place.

“I said stop! I refused to do it with you!” I slapped his face and tried to run away. But Lucifer used his power to close the door and didn’t let me escape from his lustful desires.

“Emerald, you have to understand my need as a man and as your husband.” He walked towards me while touching his face.

“I’m just 18 years old! Tell me! How old are you?!” My face turned red as I asked nonsense questions to him.

“Me? I’m 10,000 years old already,” he confirmed.

I was too shock to speak right after I found out that he’s 9,985 years old than me. But I admit, Lucifer looks like he’s just around 21. But after all, I still can’t accept to do it with him.

“Emerald, you’re already dead so it doesn’t matter whether you’re 18 or what. Here, in inferno, age doesn’t matter anymore,” Lucifer emphasized.

“I-I told you already, I’m still a virgin!” I trembled and can’t look directly into his eyes.

“Is that so? Well, I’m more experienced to you so let me be the one to guide on your first time,” he rejoined.

“D-Don't do it! I’m warning you! I could use this light to make you faint,” My eyes widened as I could sense how desperate he is. My legs are already shaking when his eyes flared up again and he started to stared at me from head to toe.

“My dear Emerald… your facial expression tells me more than your actions.”

“Okay fine! I think I have no choice here anymore.” I walked towards him and hugged him.

“Lucifer… just… be gentle with me, will you?” I acted cutely in front of him and his face quickly became red as tomato.

He went closer to my face to kiss me but I dodged it using my fingertips. I run towards the bed and slowly laid down my body while he’s still standing in front of me.

“Emerald… I want to see more of you,” he whispered.

He quickly went down above me and gradually grasped my legs. I was nervous that time but he looks so happy that I’m finally doing it with him for the very first time. But, when the space between our lips slowly decrease, I realized that I’m still scared to give up my virginity. And after all, Lucifer was still a demon and I still want to make everything right between me and God. So making another mistake would be a sin that will drag me down the hell even more.

I used my power to create a sacred light and it made him fainted until he lost his consciousness. When Lucifer woke up, he thought that everything that had happened between us last night was just a dream. I wondered why he think of that but still, it's such a good thing for me that he forgot it. 

But slowly I observed that Lucifer was sad and lonely. So while he’s drinking some tea in the lounge, I went towards him and start to make some conversation.

“Lucifer, you look so lonely today. Why?” I sat down in front of him and noticed his loneliness.

“Nothing. I just had a dream last night about us and I thought that it was real.”

“H-Huh? Really? About what?” I pretended that I didn’t know it but actually it was my fault at the first place after all.

“Never mind. Nothing will ever change even if I tell you about it,” he faked his smile and deeply stared at me like he’s longing for love.

“Lucifer, I forgot that I need to do something. I’ll leave you for now….” As I stood up, he grabbed my arms and begged me to stop.

“W-Why? What’s the matter?” I asked him.

“Emerald, do you love me?”

“Lucifer, I need to do something.” I tried to unstrangle my arms but he’s using his force to make me stay for a while.

“Answer my question. I want the truth now.”

“L-Lucifer, I still need to fix something in the corridor. I’ll talk to you later.” I finally got to leave and I left him with nothing but sadness.

I admit that I’m not sure about my feelings for him. Since I didn’t want to hurt him I just decided to shut my mouth and avoid answering his questions. I went towards the corridor and I accidentally bumped into someone. 

“Ouch!” I lost my balance and fell down onto the floor.

“Hey, are you okay?” A handsome man offered his hand and helped me to get up.

“Woah! You’re your highness’s wife, right?” He interrogated.

“Y-Yeah… I think so….” I murmured.

“Nice to meet you, my lady. My name is Lucturex, the demon king's servant and long time friend.” He lowered his head towards me and show some respect.

To be honest, he was so good-looking that I didn’t expect that he’s a demon too. Lucturex has red eyes, silver hair and tall white skinny body proportion.

“Servant and his… friend?”

“Yes, my lady.”

“So, you know a lot of things about him then?” I put my hands onto my chest and didn’t look at him with a straight face.

“Y-Yeah… I mean, we’ve been together for almost like a thousand years now,” he added.

“Really?” I eventually fainted and lost my strength so I sat down on the floor for a moment. Lucturex gradually consulted me right after he caught me coughing countless times.

“I will take you right away to your room, my lady.” He carried me and I’m shock about his strength that he could easily do that.

He gently laid me down on bed and handed me a cup of tea to relax. After that moment, he sat down on the chair beside me and asked why I look upset.

“H-Huh? W-Why? How did you notice that?” I asked him.

“My lady, I may be powerless but I have a good sense when it comes to sad people like you.” 

“Is that so?”

“Yeah. Now. Tell me your problem. Maybe I could help?”

“It’s Lucifer…” My brows lowered and put on a sad expression.

“Eh? You two are already arguing right after your marriage? That’s odd.”

“It’s not that,” I looked at him and attempted to speak up about my feelings that I keep on hiding inside me.

“Well, what is it, my lady?” He grasped my hand then smiled.

“Lucifer keeps on saving my life and I know that I’m just giving him troubles. I don’t understand my feelings about him. I hate him but I… I don’t want to hate him! I don’t know why he loves me. I want to know him more. But I feel like he's hiding  something from me.” The water inside my eyes shimmered until it condensed.

Lucturex took a deep breath and gently put his eyes on me. I could feel that he’s trying not to tell me the truth but he can’t handle it anymore.

“My lady… I’m not trying to hurt you but… this is the truth,” he sighed.

“What is it? Tell me! Please!” I begged him.

“Lucifer used to be inlove with an angel named Cecilia back then. She used to visit him under the hell hundred years ago and I witnessed their genuine love towards each other. But Cecilia was punished for falling inlove with a demon like him so she was punished with death and Lucifer can’t accept it. He became the demon of wrath since he hold huge anger towards the Gods who killed her beloved Cecilia,” he explained.

“And now what? If he’s too inlove with her why he still marry me? He even told me that he loves me a lot. So he’s just lying the whole time around?! Don’t tell me that he's just using me to escape from the pain?! I believed in him! I nearly fell for that! And now, I just found out that he’s obsessed witb someone?! Then tell me! Why did he marry me?!” I raised my voice and strangled Lucturex's shirt. I  didn’t notice that my tears was already flowing from my eyes like a heavy rain.

“Because you and lady Cecilia carried the same face. You two looks exactly the same,” Lucturex admitted.
