All Chapters of THE DEVIL'S LOVE : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

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's counsel, hoping he'd be able to convince her to do otherwise."Aria, you can't possibly believe a word that the devil says. You should know better." Levi said to her."Levi, please, I'm not entirely dumb. At least I know a thing or two about the devil. I know he's full of deceit, but this is Lucas we're talking about. Do you have a better solution besides leaving him to rot?""Aria, I'm not leaving him to rot. I know this is hard for you, and it's hard for everyone too, but you have to trust me. It's better to leave Lucas to rot, than to take the devil's advise. Even if he really had a way to save Lucas, why didn't he come to me? Why did he come to you?""Maybe because he knows you won't

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

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 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

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
