Damon POV
I stood in the shower, the water dribbled down my back, still not believing that I am Lilith's mate, well it's not totally unbelievable, many years ago before she was born, The oracle told me I will fall in love with her, the one who will save us all. And I didn't understand what she meant because I loved Eve II, That's before she became smitten with the power which boosted her to overthrow Lucifer, her father. But I loved her regardless, even though Stefan always warned me about her, that I was just an incubus, a second class demon and my gold eyes were the evidence of it. But she was Hell's royalty, a wrath demon and her purple eyes were her authorization over the realm, she had it all. But she craved more, she wanted to control it and everyone within in.
And because of her selfishness, the underworld has been fighting a war ever since. Bloodshed for millions of years, and it was us, my that started it. Werewolves, Vampires, W
Stefan POVI tried everything I could think of, to get Lilith to give in to her abilities, but nothing worked, anger, excitement, lust. But they all failed miserably, telling her about Eve II and Damon was a low blow, but what do I have to lose. I can't remember anything from last night, but she was here, in my dreams. Damon barely said anything to me since he got back from jogging, and it had me wondering, did he know about last night? They are mates, so I was thinking aren't he connected to her? Or probably it doesn't work like the wolves.“Hey,”Damon came out of the shower drying his hair in a towel, “What's up bro.”“Nothing much, I am here thinking,” I mumbled.“Thinking about what?”“Brother, if the supernatural realm finds out about your...newly found love, you're going to be killed, I think you should do something,”“And what are you implying?” Damon asked.“Well, if you two are mates, you need to reject her or what
Lilith POV“For the last time, Mel, Everything is fine, Why are you calling you've been gone for only a couple of hours You're in the middle of the ocean, Wait...how are you even calling?” I asked.“Because I am at the apartment, Williams is out running errands before we leave,” She mumbled.“Ok, but why are you whispering?”“His parents– his parents are here,” Mel muttered.“Oh! Oh my God... What are they like?” I asked.“Well, they seem nice, but I am nervous”“And that's the reason you're whispering?”“No, it's because... I don't want to be a rude host, so I excused myself to the bathroom, so I could call you.”I took a deep breath, rolling my eyes in annoyance.“Mel, go and bond with your in-laws, I can take care of myself, everything is ok.”“Yea I know but are you ok?” She asked.I paused at her question, Thinking, Am I ok? The simplest question most people cannot answer. No, no I am not, I thin
Damon POVWalking up to the cash register, I gazed out the window displays, “What's up with the police cars?” I asked a blonde-haired cashier. “There was an incident— after you asked for the keys to the bathroom.“What kind of incident?” I lowly asked.The cashier tipped on her toes, searching over my shoulders, carefully inspecting our surrounding, leaning closer to me, I met her half there, her lips brushing against my ear lobes, “There is a dead body...in the alley next to us,” she whispered.“A human—I... I mean...was it a woman or a man?” I asked, staring into her eyes.She stepped back as a potential customer scanned the aisle behind me, “Employees aren't allowed to comment, and— I haven't got all the details yet anyway, cops even blocked off the area,” she said scanning the lens packets independently.I fold my fists inside my coat pockets, Humans aren't brave enough to openly kill in broad daylight, this sounded like the
Lilith POV“Hey we have to go back, my— friends are probably in danger,” I turned to face Thomas who had his hands fixed on the steering wheel. “Friends? I thought Mel— was your only friend,” he snickered.I didn't want to tell him about Damon and Stefan, I only knew it was their car because Mel showed to me this morning before she left, “Just turn the car around—please,” I pleaded.“I can't, if I am not mistaken, I saw a CSI van back there, it's a crime scene and the cops can charge me if I park too close...attempt contamination of evidence, and it seems as if they have it under control,”Taking a deep breath, I folded my arms, hoping that whatever happened back there, they are ok.“Sorry— I hope your friends are ok,”“Yea, me too,” I mumbled.Driving towards the center of the city, he came to a stop at a cross-section, “Where I drop you off?” he asked.“Thank you, but here is fine, I will take it f
Stefan POVBack at the apartment, I swirled in circles, Damon was in the bathroom, trying to find the contacts nearest to his golden eyes, he's lucky that jail cell was dark enough so Cerberus didn't notice the change. I spent the last hour going over the pictures and I hoped I could find a reason, an explanation because— If Lucifer's dark side is here... on earth, might as well we throw in the towel and give up, there is no use fighting, it's a battle we already lost. We know nothing about this demon, only stories about how it seeks a victim and the way it kills and no demon can kill like that, at least no regular one, the claw marks were not minor, they dug deep inflicted by a monster.“Can someone please explain to me again what's happening?” Damon existed the latrine, drying his hands in a piece of paper towel, sitting next to Cerberus on the sofa.“Cerberus here says that he was guarding Hell's gate, took a nap, and found himself here— on earth,” I
Damon POVI laid in bed flat on my back, tucking my hand under my head, thinking. If only we were working together we would have been suspicious of Cerberus, that damn mongrel is a trickster, and he played us like a fool. Him hiding his true form behind human characteristics, made me believe that he has a heart, but how stupid of me to think that he's a hellhound, his loyalty lies with the master of hell. Eve II was probably the one who sent him to find us. After all, finding us means she'd find the girl. But Stefan was caught up in pride, and I was acting on how I— feel.Demons had two feelings lust and vengeance, I used to believe what I felt for Eve II was love, but as I said, demons don't adore anyone apart from their selves. I enjoyed fucking her in the forbidden areas of the castle she'd take me, allowing me to pound her deep, pulling out her hidden climaxes, Perhaps that's why she tolerated me, kept me around, I was one of Hell's
Lilith POV“Who does he think he is anyways,”I mumbled to myself, sitting in the kitchen, pouring me another shot of— what's the name? I picked up the bottle, trying to read the label... Yeah, whiskey. Why did he show up here unannounced, maybe he came to see if he left me heartbroken, sending his brother to tell me about his girlfriend back home was a coward move and I hated him for it?Remembering the necklace from earlier, I pulled it from my pocket, holding it in mid-air, studying it.I don't how to explain what I experienced today and if I tell anyone they are going to think that I am crazy, and I know I'm not. I don't know what the library ghost meant,'take this necklace, it will protect you until you can protect yourself'.I unlatched it, admiring it while thinking,Should wear it?It was a lovely necklace, the dark
Stefan POV“Max thought I told you... keep them coming!” I tried to yell above the music playing in the club. I was high off bloody marys, my vision was getting blurry and I felt lightheaded, the Devils Lare was Lucifers', I don't know who owns it now, Probably Eve II but who cares, it didn't cause trouble and its' the only place demons in the city can get a drink of Hell's favorite delight. No demon knew what it was made of, but we loved it, it was our kind of— booze. Max was a lower class demon, he was cast out of hell, and ever since, he has lived centuries among humans, trying to fit in and not obsessed with getting back in Hell, he just lives for the moment.The reverse Lucifer could be anywhere, we don't know what it looks like, but we have to find out... We— as in, my brother and I. I was wrong earlier, I just... Every time I think about her being Damon's mate, my heart breaks a little hearing her name each time it is said, Pulling my cellphone fr
