The rest of the night was a restless one for Lucas. His mind wandered off with thoughts of what or who could've hurt Selene so bad that she retreated for safety.

The goddess wasn't the type to run away from battle. She was just like him_resilient, stubborn, strong and powerful. Back when they were still together centuries ago, the two of them were a formidable force. No creature or being dared to take a breath when they were near, and the whole realm lived in fear of them.

But now this goddess, whose stares alone was enough to drill a hole into a person's skull, came home wounded and helpless.

Lucas knew that whatever or whomever could've done that to Selene, they would be powerful enough to even attempt an attack on him. The thought of Lucifer crossed his mind, but he shrugged it off. Even the devil had a level of fear for the goddess, so there was no way he could've been the perpetrator.

It was in this moment that Lucas began to regret all the decisions he had made so far. If he

  • THE DEVIL'S LOVE    Chap 32

    Levi held the car door for her, and helped her get in. As the car doors clicked shut, and the engine came alive with Levi behind the wheel, Aria let out a breath. All these while, she had been worried that the witches would catch up with her, but now she was out of harm's way. What excited her more was that she was going to be reunited with Lucas. She was so grateful that Levi appeared right when he did. Lucifer had saved her when he had no reason to. That alone intrigued her. At the thought of how much Lucas hated his father, she made a mental note to tell him the role he had played in making sure that she was safe. She felt that there was more to Lucifer than the evil he was known for, and she was determined to make Lucas see that as well.Her head throbbed with pain from the stress she had undergone earlier. She thought of Selene and her warning against she and Lucas meeting before he healed fully. She hoped she wouldn't interfere this time, because Aria wanted nothing more than to

  • THE DEVIL'S LOVE    Chapter 31

    Aria laid curled up in bed, the quilt soft beneath her, with the muted glow of streetlights seeping through the thin curtains. The night was quiet. She closed her eyes, and let herself drift_reminiscing on the good old days when her life was still meaningful. Back then, though her life wasn't perfect, she at least led a nice life. She had a few friends, and she knew nothing about shape shifters, and the supernatural world as a whole. Her sanity was intact, even though she wasn't getting the best out of life. She was a happy girl... until Lucas came in, and turned her life into a living chaos. With him, she had witnessed firsthand cruelty when Lucas beat up the boys that had tried to snatch her bag. Still with him, she saw what it was like to be loved. He loved her no doubt, and she knew this. She didn't need him to say the words to her_the sacrifices he made, and the pain he had gone through for her sake was enough proof of his love for her.She missed his laughter. The soft, yet f

  • THE DEVIL'S LOVE    Chapter 29

    After the confrontation with Aria and the devil, Selene stood at the edge of the darkened forest, her golden eyes reflecting the faint glow of the moon above. The coven's presence was unmistakable now_she could feel it pulsing every second, like a heartbeat underneath the earth.She clenched her fists, nails digging into her palms. Lucifer was right. Her ritual had awoken the coven. When she took a piece of Aria to save Lucas, she had drawn power from the earth, and in that moment, there was a shift in the balance, and the witches broke free. Now they wanted vengeance, and she had no idea what to say to Lucas.He was still healing. Weakened. Vulnerable in ways that he'd never admit. If he were to use his powers in his state, he'd awaken the black flame, and the outcome could be worse.Selene's jaw tightened.She contemplated on the best decision to make. Tell Lucas, and watch him freak out at the mention of Aria's safety, and all hell would let loose. Keep it a secret, and risk fight

    The room was dimly lit, bathed only in the faint gold of twilight that filtered through the half-closed blinds. With her phone in her hand, Aria stood by the window, her gaze distant. Her mind had barely known peace since after the descent, and now, the silence between her and Lucas haunted her. She barely slept at night without the dreams of that day haunting her. His screams as he was engulfed in pain. It was a terrible moment for her.Levi had visited the other day, and he assured her that Lucas has healing well, and would be able to see her soon, but Aria still had her doubts.How long would it take for him to fully heal?She missed him like her life was meaningless without him in it. She missed the man who'd readily risk his life to save hers. The man who kept coming for her, even when she pulled away from him.She missed Lucas.She heaved a sigh, and stared at his photo on her phone screen. She longed to be back with him, and she hoped that just as Levi had promised, he'd be fin

  • 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.
