“How about this, together we do it? You get your woman, and together we play, and I will stand beside you, Lucifer. I will help you recognise and act on those words. If you fail, I will still stand by your side.”Does she not realise her words? Lucifer stares at her; she is willing to stand by and watch as he possibly kills a woman for his own pleasure.“How do you find these women, Lucifer? Do you just drag them off the streets, or do you actually find women who like pain?” “I attract women, Anais. They come to me. I explain what I like, and they agree, it really is that easy.” Okay, he may stare at them, pushing them to agree, but they were interested in him anyway.“Websites Lucifer, there are websites and clubs where you can find women who love this stuff, rather than tricking innocent, vulnerable women into here who have no idea what they are agreeing to.”“Nails, while you can use th

“Why are you here?” Lucifer stares at him, their eyes meeting. Belial looks around him, seeing Anais lying on the bed.“You keep saving her. She should be dead, Lucifer. You know the effects of saving a mortal repeatedly.” Lucifer knows he is right. The effects are bad, yet he can’t let her die.“Let me take her now while she doesn’t know, she won’t feel a thing, and she will never need to know you let me kill her.” Belial steps towards the bed, Lucifer quickly moving to protect her, his eyes glowing.“No, she is mine.” His anger radiating from within him, Belial laughs.“She will be your downfall Lucifer, or should I say your uprising.” Lucifer looks at him confused, then back to Anais.“Do you not see Lucifer? She is changing you, changing everything about you.” Lucifer shakes his head, unable to accept the words; she isn’t. Sure, she is somehow keepin

“You realise the truth, right?” Anais raises her head to look at him. She has been here for over twelve hours, he keeps giving her breaks here and there, but twelve hours of him constantly trying to burn the memories from her mind.“That you’re an arsehole?” Her words are flat.“Well, I won’t argue with that. I mean you and Lucifer, how will it work, Anais? You have to accept that if you and he do this, there is no future. Even if him falling in love with you doesn’t turn him mortal or pull him up to the rest of our brothers. He will hate you, hate you for turning him mortal. That will make him snap and kill you to become what he was before.”“Then he kills me. I’m not giving in, not until I see Lucifer, not until he tells me to.”“This is the curse. You realise that is why right? You don’t truly love him, you don’t truly want to wait for him to come and say leave, a

Hours pass as he stays quiet, just watching her sleep, listening to her breathing.His eyes are on her as he hears her breathing changing. Walking over, his lips press delicately against her forehead. “Never forget me, Anais, because I will never forget you.”  Lucifer’s smile falls.Anais hears the words, her smile widening as she wakes. Opening her eyes, she glances around, confused. One because she could have sworn that she just heard Lucifer and he isn’t here, and two, where the hell is she? Sitting up, her eyes fall on the letter, her hands picking it up as her eyes move across the words.Every word from the letter burns her from the inside as she feels the tears falling from her eyes and sobs escaping her mouth. He has gone, and the realisation hits her that he went, and she never got to say goodbye, not fully.He didn’t even stay around long enough to say goodbye to her.She glances around. She doesn’t

Lucifer:Time seems to be going slowly, and everything he does feels pointless. He spends his time following Anais, watching as she walks around businesses. Nothing seems to help though. Hiding from her just makes him listen. Following her just makes him want to touch her.His head shakes as he stands at the window, watching her sleep. The sound of her moans ringing in his mind, he smiles slightly. He could, couldn’t he?He closes his eyes, trying to see what she is dreaming. His smile widens as he watches himself pleasuring and teasing her in her own mind. He wishes he could do that.His head shakes, and he feels pushed back to reality. His body moves as he notices Anais awake. He sits outside the window, listening to her breathing settle. He watches as she constantly wakes, almost like she can’t sleep.He needs to give in, just walk away and let her live her life, not watch her sleep.A few days. The words quiet to him
