Chapter 54

The party ended on a sour note.

Katherine had been on edge ever since Giovanni showed up. Even after he left, she couldn’t relax, constantly looking over her shoulder like she expected him to come back.

The tension was thick, and it wasn’t long before Lucifer had enough. He told everyone to leave, cutting the night short. Now the house was quiet, but Katherine was still jumpy, every small noise making her flinch.

He picked a slice of banana bread off the tray before him and popped it into his mouth. He kicked his feet up on the table and relaxed into his seat, wanting to enjoy some peace alone.

He closed his eyes, drifting off into a space of relaxation, but it wasn’t long before the sharp sound of his ringtone pierced through the air, the loud sound directly affecting his ear. His eyes snapped open and he lurched forward grabbing the mobile device off the table, before flipping it open.

“Boss, we’ve got something.” A familiar voice crackled from the other end of the lin

    CHAPTER 55Katherine was awoken by the feeling of hot breath fanning against her neck. She felt Lucifer’s hand slither around her waist, gripping her tightly as he gave her a soft kiss on the cheek. “Mmm, baby. Stop that, I’m trying to sleep!” She grumbled, pushing him away teasingly, even though she knew she wanted it as badly as he did. “You know I always like having my way?” He whispered into her ear, his morning voice husky and low. She wasn’t expecting him to wake her up like this and she could feel her p*ssy getting wet already. “I know, but I—” She gasped when she felt him nibbling her earlobes gently, making her squirm in the sheets. His other hand wandered down to her pajama shorts, rubbing her core through them. She grinded her hand back against his hand, letting out a little giggle, “But, you seem to be enjoying it, princess,” He chuckled, now slipping his hands into the shorts to touch her wet p*ssy. She shuddered gently, letting out a low moan as he slipped two finger

    CHAPTER 56“Brother?...” Katherine whispered under her breath. She did a double take. Wait, these two men looked nothing alike. Okay, now that she was staring at them, maybe the lips and the nose…The eyes were totally different colours and even the physiques were different. Brothers? It almost seemed impossible and Katherine had to backtrack, hoping that she didn't mishear.“Who's your brother?” Lucifer asked, his eyes narrowed as his eyes sweeped over Marco. Him being in front of Lucifer alone irked him, and he couldn't stand the thought of him having been talking to Katherine, before he even arrived.What on earth had they been talking about? And why was Katherine entertaining him in the first place?“Aren't you no longer my brother?” Marco said, nudging Lucifer on the shoulder gently. “So much for warm welcomes…”Lucifer was quick to smack his hand away, raging so hard that a vein was bulging out the side of his neck. “We are not brothers. Please, don't let the public ears hear t

    CHAPTER 57Lucifer glanced around anxiously. He was trying to look for an escape route—anything that would save him at this point, but he was trapped. Right. This was nothing but a trap, and he had just stupidly walked right into it. Who could it have been? Thick and heavy smoke filled the air—almost suffocating— and the beeping noise in the distance blared like a countdown to hell itself.Lucifer gritted his teeth, adrenaline surging through his veins as he thought of his only escape route to getting out of this hellhole. His gaze darted to the timer—10 seconds left. His chest heaved, mind racing. The stairs were too far. The only way out was the window.“Fuck it,” he growled, pivoting toward the fragile glass.With every ounce of strength he had in his body, Lucifer ran, ignoring the debris scattering beneath his shoes and the annoying sound of gravel. He could almost feel the heat radiating off the bomb now, and it made him on edge. His body slammed into the window, shattering it

    CHAPTER 58“What are you doing here?” Lucifer asked, his eyes narrowed as he looked at the man before him. He tensed up immediately, sitting up in the bed. Two guards of Lucifer followed Marco in, standing attentively, with their firearms hidden. Why was it that Marco was always following him around? Now it was feeling like more of an infatuation—one that unnerved him. Clearing his throat, the doctor picked up his things and left the room giving the two men their privacy. There was no need for him to be there, prying into their personal matters.As soon as he left, Marco spoke, “Ah, I mean no harm.” He rose both arms, in defensiveness chuckling, “I just came to see my lady.” He gestured towards Katherine with a small smile. Katherine stood still by the hospital bed. Was this man trying to get her killed? It was enough as is to see Lucifer’s reaction alone, from talking to him. Now, Lucifer would think that something else was going on behind the scenes. But, that was just a plain li

    CHAPTER 59After spending a week in the hospital, Lucifer was still feeling all sore, but he was more than happy to leave Hawaii as it had given him a feeling of bad omen. “Are you all set?” Lucifer asked turning around. “Just give me one second, I can't find my bikini bottoms!” Katherine responded, leaping from one spot in the room to another. She just didn't know where she placed her bottoms and those were her favourite pair. “Have you checked the couch cushions?” Lucifer rolled his eyes, watching as she scurried about. Katherine's head snapped up to meet his eyes, and her eyes sparkled with astonishment, “Oh my goodness. You're right, I totally forgot!” She yelled, dashing towards the two-seater.Lo and behold, there it was, wedged between two cushions. “I wonder how you made your way over here,” she murmured under her breath, picking it up and tossing it into her luggage bag, before zipping back up. Exasperated, she dragged her two, much heavier bags to the front of the room

    CHAPTER 60"Riley is that really you?" Lucifer asked looking at the girl in front of him. The lights had suddenly turned back on, and there in the center of the room was a lady about Katherine’s age, standing there, hands looped behind her. There was a little gift bag on the table, filled to the brim and stuffed with wrapping paper, and beside it were helium balloons and a get well soon card propped up right beside it.Katherine's bag had slipped out of her grip; a result of her reeling shock. But no one seemed to notice the soft thump of the leather bag against the floor.“Yes, it's me, Lucifer!” Riley sighed, quickly running up towards him and pulling him in for a tight, warm embrace.“It's been so long, Where have you been?” Lucifer asked still dumb struck by the fact that Riley was actually here. The hug felt familiar, but odd since he hadnt received one in so long. Witnessing what was happening right in front of her eyes, Katherine blinked once, then twice, unable to believe h

    Chapter 61“Riley, what are you talking about?” Lucifer sat up quickly, his heart rate skyrocketing all of a sudden. There was a part of him that oddly didn’t want Katherine to hear, but at the same time, he didn’t mind.“You know what I’m talking about, Lucifer,” She pushed him by the shoulder with her pointer finger, biting her bottom lip mischievously. “Or have you forgotten so quickly?” She said, her voice low and breathy as her doe eyes looked up at him. His blue orbs bore almost into her soul, yet she couldn’t seem to look away from those mesmerizing eyes.“Maybe I have…” He trailed off, breaking the eye contact finally. His breath hitched for a moment when he felt her hand on his shoulder, “You can’t do this though, Riley.” He cautioned, his breathy voice betraying him.It’d been a while since he was laid and it didn’t help him much in this situation. “What?” She whined, laughing it off. “So, you don’t remember running from Mrs. Verna’s class,” She trailed a finger down his c

    Chapter 62“How do you feel now?” Riley asked, standing beside where Lucifer sat. He popped open the sachet of medicine, and spilled it into his outstretched palm, before downing it with some water. As she watched him gulp the prescribed medicine down, he nodded. He let out a deep sigh after taking the medicine, “Better than before. I can’t believe these pills work so fast.” He said, relaxing back into his seat. He had skipped his medication and the pain from the explosion had resumed, and this time, tremendously. It was late in the evening, and soon they’d all have dinner. The pain throughout the day was too much for Lucifer, and even though Riley asked if he needed anything, he ended up brushing it off with a shake of his head. But, she could easily see through him. Of course, she’d known him for years, so it was only normal. “My shoulder just feels a bit sore.” He said after a short while, scratching the back of his neck. Without saying a word, she moved behind the seat, and pl

    CHAPTER 110Katherine couldn't sleep. The events of the past night kept haunting her. She fixed her eyes on her door as though at any moment he would force it down and try to have his way with her.Panic wasn't good for her health and her baby and now she had forgotten what peace was like. Her mind raced. Could this be one of the reasons why Amanda had told her to always have her door locked? Regardless of what she hears? Did she know her husband took advantage of random women and had a fetish for pregnant ones?Last night, she had felt terribly hungry because she had skipped dinner. Any moment she didn’t have to share a table with Ethan and bear his glares was where she felt the most peace. The house had been quiet. Too quiet she didn't see the monster that slipped into the kitchen with her. She was about to reach into the fridge for a carton of milk when his hand clamped over her mouth and her scream was muffled. He shoved her back against the wall. She had kicked and struggled b

    CHAPTER 109Cassius paced his sitting room with his jaw tight and fingers drumming against the desk.It had been too long. Two days with no trace of his son. It wasn't the first time he was doing it. Wilson had been disappearing frequently, always vague about where he was going, always brushing off his concern.But now…Now he was gone. There wasn't a call or text from him. No nothing. He had reached out to a few friends of his and they claimed to have not seen him since the afternoon of the supposed day he disappeared. Cassius wasn’t a man who panicked easily. But worry sat heavy in his gut, especially because he knew the stuff his son had been putting his hands in.Definitely, something had happened and it wasn't a good kind. He couldn't reach out to the police because then, that would be toying with dangerous men. And they wouldn't waste a second before snuffing life out of him.He was still contemplating on what to do when a sharp knock came on his door. He quickly dropped his ph

    CHAPTER 108Katherine smoothed the soft fabric of the sundress Amanda had given her. It was light, floral, and felt like a second skin. It was the first time in a long while she felt... beautiful.The afternoon sun cast a warm glow over the house as she stepped into the living room.Adelaide’s face lit up. “Wow, Kat! You look like a princess!”Katherine chuckled. “You think so?”“Yes! So pretty!”But then, there was a sudden shriek.Madeleine's tiny face twisted in anger. Her little fists clenched.“Take it off!”Katherine blinked. “What?”Madelaine lunged violently.“Take it off! That’s Mommy’s dress!”The child yanked at the fabric, her small hands gripping and pulling.Katherine’s heart dropped.“I—I didn’t know—”“Take it off now!” Madeleine's voice broke.Before Katherine could react, Ethan stepped into the room.“What's going on?” He asked, looking from eye to eye. “It's nothing,” Katherine said quickly. “I think I should take it off.”Amanda shook her head. “It looks amazing on

    CHAPTER 107Katherine sat at the dining table, her fingers curled around a cup of green tea. The warmth seeped into her palms, but it did nothing to ease the discomfort in her body.“You look pale dear,” Amanda said and then her eyes flickered to Katherine’s stomach. “Is it the baby?”Katherine’s gaze darted across the room where Ethan was reading a newspaper. Or pretending to.She could feel his gaze flicking toward her every so often. It wasn’t her imagination anymore. It was him and he didn't hide it. It was readable.“Perhaps,” she spoke silently.Every time she walked past him, his eyes followed.Every time she spoke, his attention lingered just a second too long.“How many months gone are you now, Marilyn?”“Six months,” she said, finally breaking the contact.“That's great,” Ethan said suddenly, looking up from his newspaper and giving her a sly smile that made her heart pound. In fear.“Soon you would be without a baby,” he said softly as he eyed her. “We would love to see wha

    CHAPTER 106Pain.That was all Wilson could process.His hand was useless, his fingers were twitching at odd angles. His wrist was swollen, the skin stretched taut and red. Every small movement sent sharp, nauseating pain shooting through his arm.Two guards dragged him through a long hallway, his feet stumbling over the marble floor. The house was even better up close—tall arched ceilings, thick rugs embroidered with rare designs, swords and artifacts were displayed like trophies.Wilson gritted his teeth, forcing his focus away from the agony.He had to think. He had to get out.The guards didn’t say a word as they shoved him into a small, dimly lit room. His shoulder slammed into the wall, but the pain in his hand overpowered everything else.“Please,” he said. “I'm thirsty.”“Make do with your piss,” they spat and stormed out, the door locking behind them.Wilson exhaled through clenched teeth, resting his forehead against the cool wall. His whole body ached. His mind was clouded,

    CHAPTER 105 Katherine wiped her hands on her apron, exhaling softly as she leaned against the kitchen counter. The late afternoon sun filtered through the curtains, casting warm golden light over the polished wooden floors.She was exhausted and with every passing day, she felt more irritable than the last. She had accepted her fate but she felt she was going to suffocate and die soon.The Landans let her walk around the garden but she was fed up with seeing the same people everyday. She wanted to breathe a different air.She missed her maid, she missed Lucifer, sadly. She hated to admit it but she missed those rubs he gave her to soothe her. But he had hurt her. He only saw her as a tool.A spoon dropped and she stared at it for a long time, suddenly aware of how quiet the house was. It was the kind of quiet that made her feel like she was being watched.She had been feeling it for days now. That unsettling, creeping sensation that someone’s eyes were on her. It was the same way she

    CHAPTER 104Pain still pulsed from Wilson’s cheek, but he barely felt it anymore.Not with that box in the room.Not with Giovanni’s smirk growing wider by every passing moment.Not with the way R leaned against the desk, silent, watching.The man holding the box placed it carefully on the table. It was sleek, black, and compact. Not large. Not meant to carry a body.But Wilson knew better.It wasn’t about size.It was about the message.Giovanni turned back to Wilson, dragging a chair closer. Slowly. Casually. Like they were old friends catching up.He sat down, crossing his legs. “Cassius’ little dog,” he repeated, “Tell me… do you bite?”Wilson flashed his teeth.“What can I say? I like pissing off old men.”“You don’t look afraid,” Giovqnnin observed, his tone etched with disappointment.Wilson forced himself to hold the stare. He wouldn’t give this bastard the satisfaction.“How disappointing. I expected him to beg.”R looked him over with the look he detested the most—pity. “Give

    CHAPTER 103Wilson’s eyes fluttered open and he moaned out slowly. The world seemed to swirl around him. He turned his head slowly to the direction where a faint glow was coming from. His brain felt fuzzy and he felt exhausted as though all the energy had been drained from him.The room was silent. Too silent.The only sound was the soft creaking of the chair as he shifted, his wrists burning where the metal cuffs dug into his skin.“Hi sunshine.”The voice seemed to twitch something in him and his heart leapt for joy. “R?”Across from him, R sat leisurely with legs crossed. She looked completely at ease. A cigarette danced in between her fingers which she slowly dragged on like they weren’t both trapped in the belly of a monster.“Sorry, I forgot to thank you for the weed,” she murmured, smirking.Wilson swallowed, his voice rough. “R… Are you okay?”R smirked, tilting her head.Wilson’s gut twisted as he scanned her for any sign of injury. “Did they touch you?

    CHAPTER 102R watched Wilson intently till he could bear it no more. She took a drag of her cigarette. “What is it?” He asked slowly.“Would you ever betray me?” she asks.Wilson shook his head and without hesitation he said in a loud and clear voice,“No.”She watched him more closely now. “Even if I betrayed you first?”Wilson’s chest tightened and he didn't answer. Not like he needed to anyway. Why she had asked that question, he didn't know.She nudged his side, her smirk playful. “Ready to break into hell again?”Wilson took another drag of his cigarette and smiled as a wave of relief washed through him,“always. What's our next mission?”“Giovanni's house,” she said simply. Wilson shook his head. “No way.”*.*Wilson pressed a hand against the cold, rough wall as he crouched lower, moving forward carefully. The underground tunnel was dark and the smell of wet earth congested his nostrils.He leaned closely to R whose eyes were fixed on her phone screen as she checked their locat
