After quietude had returned, and the street was littered with bodies, Lucas turned to search for Aria. He saw her staring at him, visibly shaken by the incident. He walked towards the shop she had hidden herself in, but Aria backed away, and this feeling of rejection made Lucas angry. He came to the door, and pulled it out from the hinges, then he went into the shop, and walked close to her.

"Lucas, go away!!!" Aria screamed. There was tears streaming down her eyes. Seeing her this way made hi

    The morning felt… different.Not like other mornings when Aria would lay in Lucas's arms, talking about random things. Or the mornings when she'd wait patiently while Lucas made breakfast.This morning was too different.Just—off.Aria moved quickly around the room, her energy lighter than usual, almost buzzing beneath her skin as she pulled on her shoes and reached for her bag. There was a quiet excitement in her chest she hadn’t felt in a long time.Something simple.Something normal.And she liked it.A lot.ā€œI don’t like it.ā€Lucas’s voice cut through the space before she even reached the door.Aria paused, her hand hovering midair before she slowly turned to look at him.He was watching her.Not casually.Not the way he usually did—with that quiet, steady calm that made everything feel grounded.This was different.His gaze was sharper.More focused.Suspicious.ā€œā€¦Don’t like what?ā€ she asked carefully.ā€œThe way you’re eager to leave.ā€Her brows pulled together slightly. ā€œI’m not

    Time had never moved this slowly before.Aria stared blankly at the board, her chin propped against her palm as the instructor went over something she already knew—something she had perfected days ago.Measurements. Ratios. Techniques.All of it felt… repetitive.Familiar.Too familiar.A quiet yawn slipped past her lips before she could stop it, her eyes watering slightly as she blinked away the heaviness pulling at them.Lack of sleep.That was Lucas’s fault.Her lips twitched faintly at the thought.He had been particularly unreasonable the night before—persistent in that calm, unshakable way of his that made it almost impossible to argue.Or leave.Or sleep.She exhaled softly, shifting in her seat before finally giving in, letting her head fall forward onto the desk.Just for a moment.Just to rest her eyes.The faint hum of the classroom blurred around her—voices, movement, the soft scrape of tools against surfaces—all blending into something distant.Muted.Safe.It was barely

    Peace, Aria realized, was a dangerous thing.Not because it was fragile—but because it made you forget.And she had forgotten.Not entirely, not in a way that erased what Selene had said or the weight of it… but enough that the sharp edge of it had dulled. Enough that the fear no longer sat in her chest like something alive.Days had passed. Then weeks.Nothing happened.No looming threat. No whispers in the dark. No signs that anything had shifted beneath the surface of their world.And somehow… life had continued.Better than continued.It had bloomed.Lucas had a way of making everything feel… effortless.He showed up without warning, sometimes with nothing but that quiet, knowing look in his eyes—and other times with things that made no sense coming from someone like him.Flowers. Books. Jewelry he claimed was ā€œinsignificant,ā€ though Aria was fairly certain entire fortunes had been spent on them.And then there were the days he took her out.Not extravagant in the way that would'

    Aria hadn’t opened the door in hours.At first, it had been anger—sharp, defensive, hot in her chest like a shield she refused to lower. But anger was a short-lived companion. It burned fast, bright… and then it left.What remained was something colder.Quieter.Something that sat in her ribs and refused to move.She stayed curled on the edge of the bed, still dressed, still unmoving, staring at nothing in particular. The curtains were drawn, the room dim, but not dark enough to hide from her thoughts.Selene’s voice hadn’t left her.YOU DON’T BELONG HERE.YOU'RE DESTROYING EVERYTHINGYOU WILL BE THE REASON HE FALLS.A knock came again.Soft this time.ā€œAria,ā€ Levi’s voice filtered through the door, smooth, careful. ā€œYou’ve been in there all day.ā€She didn’t answer.There was a pause, then a quieter addition, almost reluctant."You shouldn't be like this... he's worried."Her fingers tightened slightly against the fabric of the bedspread.Still, she said nothing.Footsteps retreated.

    ā€ŽThe mansion felt different at night.ā€ŽColder.ā€ŽNot in temperature—but in presence.ā€Žā€ŽThe silence stretched longer, deeper, as though the walls themselves were listening. Shadows clung to the corners more boldly, shifting with a life of their own, bending around the dim glow of the chandeliers that barely pierced the darkness.ā€Žā€ŽBy the time Lucas stepped into the grand hall, the air already carried her presence.ā€ŽHe didn’t need to look.ā€ŽHe knew.ā€ŽSelene stood by the towering window, her back to him, her silver hair catching faint light as it spilled over her shoulders like liquid moonlight. Beyond the glass, the night stretched endlessly, the horizon swallowed in darkness.ā€ŽShe didn’t move.ā€Žā€ŽDidn’t acknowledge him.ā€Žā€ŽLucas stopped just a few steps behind her.ā€ŽSilence settled between them.ā€Žā€ŽHeavy.ā€Žā€ŽUnspoken.ā€Žā€ŽTime passed.ā€Žā€ŽSeconds—or minutes.ā€Žā€ŽThenā€”ā€Žā€Žā€œYou’re unusually quiet,ā€ Selene said at last, her voice smooth, almost bored. ā€œI thought you would have come in here

  • THE DEVIL'S LOVE Ā Ā Ā Chapter 49

    The apartment was quiet. Not the heavy, suffocating silence of Lucas's mansion, where every shadow seemed to watch and every corner felt like it held secrets older than time itself. No. This silence was lighter. Human. Ordinary. And yet...it still didn't feel like home. Aria stood in the middle of the living room, her arms loosely folded as she took it all in again_as she had done every morning since she moved in. It was a modest space, but carefully chosen. The walls were painted in soft neutral tones, the furniture modern and simple, with just enough elegance to remind her that this wasn't something she could have afforded on her own. A wide window stretched across one side of the room, letting in morning light that spilled across the polished floor in warm, golden streaks. Outside, the city stirred_cars passing, distant voices, life moving on without hesitation. It should have felt comforting. And in some ways...it did. It was nothing like the mansion. Nothing like the

    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

    Days after Lucifer's visit, Aria stayed restless, day and night. She didn't feel right with the devil's advise, especially after witnessing the hatred Lucas showed towards him when he warned him to back off. But the devil's warning lingered in her mind, and it bothered her. She decided to seek Levi

    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 aft

    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
