After Lucifer disappeared, Aria began to pace her apartment floors again, her heart thudding hard with every step.

The night outside stretched endlessly. Quiet, yet pressing with Lucifer's words echoing loudly in her head.

She felt the rushing urge to run to Lucas, but Selene had warned against that.

Selene....

The mystery goddess who had conveniently made her reappearance, and had saved the day. With the devil's words still on her mind, Aria made a decision.

"I'll just go and see him," she muttered. "It doesn't matter what that goddess thinks."

She turned to grab her coat, and in the moment, the room rippled. A gust of cold wind blew through the closed windows. Lights flickered, and then a familiar, arrogant voiced sounded behind her.

"It didn't even take you a minute to act stupid."

Aria spun around...

Selene.

The goddess stood there, cloaked in dark elegance. Her silver white hair cascading over her shoulders. Without waiting for permission from the shocked Aria who was trying to r

  • THE DEVIL'S LOVE    Chapter 27

    The night was thick with unnatural silence, even the stars dared not to twinkle. Deep within the shadowed corners of the Death forest_a land forgotten by time, and feared by all, twelve hoods moved in a circle around a burning sigil.The flames were black, laced with silver sparks that hissed like whispers, alive and hungry.These were no ordinary witches.They were the witches of the Red Order_an ancient coven, bound by blood and revenge. Their skin bore the marks of old magic_cursed sigils carved into their flesh, long ago during the time of torment. At the time when the prince of hell still ruled with unclenched fury.During the time of the devil's son.Lucas.Their leader, a tall, spectral woman with silver eyes and a long black hair, lifted her hands, and the flames flared. Her name was Venice. Once a highly respected priestess, until Lucas took away her worth. Now, she's an echo of fury, and revenge."This is our time." Venice said, voice like wind scraping across ice. "After br

  • THE DEVIL'S LOVE    Chapter 26

    Lucas lay back on the cold stone bench in his chambers, muscles aching, but healing. The black flame that had once threatened to consume him flickered faintly. It was subdued, but still present.Alone in his chambers, as Selene had instructed that he be left alone, so dark energy from his demons wouldn't corrupt the ritual, and disrupt his healing. His mind was restless, spinning with the aftermath of Aria's reckless descent.After the incident, Lucas knew for sure that Aria had finally loved him for who he was, and he no longer had to hide his true self. Yet, he couldn't let go of the thoughts that he had almost lost her inside the dark realm, if not for Selene's prompt intervention.A sudden chill filled the room, and the shadows shifted. Lucas didn't need to turn to see who it was, as it was only the devil who would dare walk into his chambers as he pleased."What a sour sight to behold." Lucifer taunted, stepping closer. "The prince of hell is weakened. I wonder how other creature

  • THE DEVIL'S LOVE    Chapter 24

    After the portal closed behind her with Selene and Lucas still inside the dead realm, Aria's heart pounded in fear of the things that had happened. She stared at her arm; the marks from Selene's spell still faintly visible on her arms. Her hands trembled uncontrollably. Lucas had almost died. Not in battle, and not even at the hands of the dreadful Behemoth. It was all because of her. Lucas could've died because of her ignorance, and blind trust for the devil. She should've known better than to believe the devil's whispers. Aria felt stupid for convincing herself that maybe the devil still had a thread of fatherhood in him. She felt stupid for having thought that he would, perhaps, be honest for the sake of his son just once. Now in her desperation to save her lover, she had ended up endangering him more. And now, she had to stay away from him so he could recover. She had to leave him in the arms of his ex-lover, because she was the only one with the powers to save his life. Every

    The realm pulsed, and darkness thickened like oil. The descent started to twist, walls whispered and shadows clawed. But a determined Aria kept walking, guided only by the faint burn of Lucifer's ring worn around her neck. Her steps faltered when the ground beneath her shifted, and she sensed him, even before she could see him. Lucas. He emerged from the shadows, barely standing. Eyes wild with pain, and fire licking under his skin. Aria stared at him. He was not the same man she remembered him to be, but her heart raced all the same. "Lucas..." She called out his name, her voice almost a sob. He didn't speak. He just stared at her like she was the last star in his collapsing sky. "You shouldn't be here." He rasped with a strained voice. "You don't understand.... this place.... me... it's not safe for you." She stepped closer to him, her eyes locked in his. She watched as he writhed in pain, and it brought tears to her eyes. "Lucas, why did you leave me? Why did you hide from me

  • THE DEVIL'S LOVE    Chapter 22

    Lucas stared at her with unseeing eyes. Centuries had passed since he last saw her. In the time when Lucas was feared, and only a whispered name among creatures all over the realm, Selene had backed him. Helping him triumph in every battle he fought. She was his backbone. His then soulmate. But after the death of Behemoth's mate, and the rumored death of Lucifer's lover, Selene disappeared, never to be seen again. Until now.She moved closer to him, her eyes warming his body, and the dark flame that danced in his veins. She stretched her arm and tried to touch him, but he flinched, and backed away."Lucas, haven't you done enough?" Lucas looked away from her.Selene had always seen through him.She had always been the one that saw him as he was, and still chose to be on his side.She was never afraid of the darkness in him. Even now, with the darker evil looming inside him, Selene wasn't moved at all."You loved me once, and never for once did I ask you to change what you are. Why ar
