Chapter 16

As Katherine turned and tossed in bed, the morning sun began to rise up over the horizon, shining directly into her eyes. She groaned, covering her head with the pillow and trying to drift back up to sleep.

It wasn’t possible, the deed had been done and now she was fully awake. Her eyes fluttered open and she turned around but was met by crumpled sheets on the bed. Lucifer wasn’t there. Where had he gone?

She sat up slowly, and her core tingled, along with it a dull ache which was a good reminder of the vigorous activities that they’d indulged in last night. She bit her bottom lip, and her face flushed as she remembered just how he had treated her last night.

Although she was battling for dear life in some scenes, it was gentler compared to the first time they had had sex. She took a breath before managing to sit up and slip out of bed. She pulled her cover up on and made the short walk to her own room where she got ready for the day.

As she stood under the shower, her mind

    CHAPTER 17Katherine’s back hit a wall as she tried to move away from Lucifer."You were expecting me? Why?" she stammered, staying still as he moved so close she had nowhere left to go.Lucifer didn’t answer right away. His eyes studied her, calm but intense, like he was deciding exactly what to do with her. “Let’s just say I had a feeling,” he finally said, his voice low. “You just couldn’t resist sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong.”Her chest tightened, but she forced herself to stand tall. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”He let out a quiet laugh, dark and humorless. “Katherine, you’re a terrible liar. I knew you’d show up eventually. What I didn’t expect was for you to be this careless.”“I’m not here to cause trouble,” she shot back, though her voice trembled. "I just want...."“Stop,” he interrupted, leaning in closer. “Don’t waste your breath. Whatever you think, it doesn’t matter anymore.” His hand came up, but he didn’t touch her. Instead, he let it hover n

    Chapter 18Katherine stared at Lucifer in awe. So, she’d really just been worrying for nothing all this while, huh?“Wait, are you serious, Lucifer? She asked again to ensure that she heard correctly.“Katherine,” He lifted his eyes away from the documents, “What did I say earlier? Get out of my study.” He commanded, and Katherine nodded, her body jittery.Happy, she ran out of his office and back to her room, only to jump in bed and kick her feet excitedly. Even though this was no call for celebration, she had narrowly escaped Lucifer’s wrath and that was something to be grateful for.As the day went by, Katherine’s routine remained extremely uneventful. It was starting to feel as though she was a slave in this giant mansion—she knew nowhere, had nowhere to go (if she’d even be allowed) and all she could do was drift in and out of sleep.She decided to move to the library and pick some books out to read. Situating herself in the window nook, she sat there and read until her eyes were

    CHAPTER 19Katherine watched as Wilson weakly dragged out the old, worn out backpack and set it right in front of Lucifer. She had screamed so much that her throat felt dry and she felt immensely weak.“This…this is where I kept the money.” He swallowed, trembling as he looked up at Lucifer.“Well?” Lucifer gave him a dirty look, shifting back as his men stood alert. “Open it up.”Wilson complied, quickly scrambling to unzip the back with shaky hands. Immediately, the zipper came undone, stacks of money spilled out of the bag and Lucifer chuckled. “Pack it up.” He ordered a men standing with a black duffel bag.“Yes sir.” He responded, bending down to stack the cash into the bag. Lucifer crossed his arms, waiting until he were done. “How much is it?” “1,700 dollars, Sir.” He replied, zipping the bag up. It didn't even reach half the space of the duffel bag.“That little yet you still got caught? Lucifer laughed bitterly, turning to face Wilson once again, his anger bubbling to the

    Chapter 20“What’s—What’s going on? Why did the car stop?” Katherine said, noticing that the scenery through the window had stopped passing by in a random blur.She looked at Lucifer and he pressed a finger to his lip, signaling for her to be quiet. Any wrong move and they’d both be dead. Katherine was scared for her life, and she ducked, getting on the car floor, trying her best to avoid what was outside. He opened a small compartment in front of him, and pulled out a small handgun.“I’ll be right back. Just…stay here, don’t move.” He ordered, his voice dead serious. She whimpered, nodding her head quickly as she shook.He climbed out of the car silently, crouching and holding his gun ready to fire. His eyes narrowed as he looked for where whoever had just ambushed him could be camping, but there was no one or nothing in sight. The driver had already stepped out of the car and was removing the road pin from the tire, which was already destroyed.“Must be those campers around here.” L

    Chapter 21A bucket of hot water was situated right beside Lucifer, as Tricia dipped a small towel in, allowing it to drip, before she squeezed carefully with her hands. “Tricia, I told you, it’s fine.” He said, wincing as the warm towel touched his injuries. He tried to move her hand away, clenching his jaw to hide the pain. The tussle between he and Ana had left him scraped up, and as much as he tried to hide it from Tricia, she could tell. She could always tell. She’d nurtured him ever since he was little, so it was only normal to know him in and out.“Nonsense!” She swatted his hand away annoyingly as she looked up at him. “You need this, otherwise it’s going to keep getting sore.” She mumbled, repeating the process until she had touched every single bruise across his back and abdomen. “What would I do without you?” He chuckled, shaking his head. “Quite literally nothing, I fear. You move with reckless abandon, child. Be careful.” She tugged on his ear teasingly, placing the t

    CHAPTER 22Katherine was still in the same position she had been in twenty seconds ago: arms wrapped around him in a tight hug, with their lips inching closer to each other slowly.It didn’t take long before Lucifer realized what was happening. He pushed her away from him, sending her stumbling backwards.“Wha—?” She gasped, feeling as if someone had just drenched her body with cold water.Right.Of course.She was stupid to even think that Lucifer would ever do such with her.“You’re acting like a child.” He jeered, looking down at her. It was almost as if right at that moment, all the energy in her depleted all of a sudden. But, he didn’t care. Why would he?“I’m sorry, I just thought…” Her face flared up with redness and all of a sudden, her cheeks felt extremely hot.“You thought what?” He asked with a firm tone, secretly enjoying the pink color that hsd gathered around her cheeks. “Just get in the car and stop wasting my time.” He mumbled, pulling the door open for her, before tu

    Chapter 23Katherine yawned, the bright rays of the morning sun perching on her skin. Somehow, she had slept more comfortably than last nice. It was…soothing to be in Lucifer’s arms without a single care in the world.But now, she was back to reality. She didn’t even know what would happen next, but she hoped for the best. Her eyes fluttered open, squinting in an attempt to shield her eyes from the sun, but to no avail.Shifting back in the bed, she felt…nothing. Huh? Where were the big, burly arms that were wrapped around her last night? She shifted again, thinking that he had probably rolled over to the other side of the bed completely, but she was met with the same feeling.Nothingness.Slowly, she sat up in bed, turning to face his side of the bed. It was wrinkled, and Lucifer definitely wasn’t laying there. She wondered if she had said something stupid or did something. After all, why would he leave so quickly?She shook her head out of her silly thoughts, climbing out of bed and

    Chapter 24“What do you want? You’re bothering me.” Lucifer said, lighting up a cigarette and bringing it up to his lips. In a slow drag, he pulled it away, exhaling as if he had been freed of all tension around him.Katherine stood by the door, arms crossed over her chest as her face contorted into one of confusion.“So, this is what you do, huh?” Katherine frowned, finally speaking up after a short while of silence. Her fists clenched as she stared at the nonchalant man, who flipped through documents that sat on the table. He didn’t bother sparing her a glance. The girl was too in over her head. Who did she think she was? The butt of the cigarette lit up as he took another satisfying drag, blowing the smoke out. Katherine coughed, waving her hand in the air, as if that would clear the air faster. She hated cigarettes, most especially the smell that followed. “Do you not care about me at all?” She asked weakly, stepping closer to him but still staying behind the table. Slowly, Lu

    Chapter 67Lucifer stood right outside the door to Katherine's bedroom, a small box in hand. It looked prim and proper, with a pink bow delicately laced at the top of the box. It was the morning after Riley had finally left the estate and even though it felt odd not having her around any more, he knew it was the best decision.Promptly after that, he decided to put together the little surprise that he had mentally plotted out for her. He wasn't quite sure of what to get or do, so he ended up sheepishly enlisting the help of Tricia.Now, thanks to her, everything was set. And all that was left was for him to show how he felt; something that wasnt his strong suit. He knocked on the big, oak door and stood in silence for a moment shoving his hand in his pocket. No reply came and he sucked his teeth, tightening his jaw. 'This is so stupid,' he thought to himself as he cleared his throat with a little sniffle. He knocked again, and no response came and it didn't take long before his min

    CHAPTER 66The door to Lucifer’s study creaked open loudly, revealing Riley standing smack dab in the middle of the dimly lit hallway. She stepped inside, her combat boots clicking softly against the polished floor as she closed the door behind her. The air between them was different, unusual, but still, Riley reminded herself that she shouldn’t act stupid in front of him.Lucifer was seated at his desk, his posture relaxed but his gaze sharp as it followed her movements. The package from earlier was nowhere in sight, as it had been thrown out, but the unspoken tension of all the events that had unfolded earlier was still obvious, as clear as day.“So,” Riley began, crossing her arms as she leaned against the edge of the desk. “This is it.”Lucifer’s lips twitched into a wry smile. “It doesn’t have to be.”She rolled her eyes, though her bodily actions betrayed her emotions. “We both know it does. You’re sending me away for my safety, right? Or is it just because you don’t trust me an

    Chapter 65Lucifer’s voice cut through the quiet like a sternly, making Katherine whip her head around. “What’s that in your hands?”Startled, Katherine stumbled against the wall as he stormed past her, his piercing gaze locked onto Riley. His tone was sharp enough to slice through the tension, and Katherine could feel the tension radiating off him like a storm. She gasped, steadying herself with one hand rested against the wall, her pulse racing as she tried to make sense of his sudden outburst.Riley, standing by the door with the package still resting in her hands, raised an eyebrow at him, unfazed by his aggression. “It’s the package,” she said, holding it up very obviously, so he could see it much more clearly. Her brow furrowed slightly. “I picked it up like you asked me to. Is there a problem?”Lucifer’s jaw ticked as he closed the distance between them. “That doesn’t look right,” he muttered, snatching the box from her hands with so much force that Riley almost toppled over.

    Chapter 64Katherine stood in the middle of the kitchen, surrounded by ingredients she had laid out in anxiousness while getting ready to make dinner. After watching Riley’s effortless breakfast feat earlier that morning, Katherine had made up her mind. She quickly dismissed the chef after thorough reasoning and now that she was right here, she couldn’t back out now. She wasn’t going to sit back while Riley played the perfect housekeeper for Lucifer. It didn’t matter how long they’d known each other. She would cook tonight—show Lucifer that she wasn’t just the helpless, needy woman Riley seemed to think she was.With a deep breath, Katherine turned her attention to the stovetop. The chicken was sizzling in the pan already, and the smell of garlic and onions filled the air. She couldn’t help but smile at the thought of Lucifer coming down the stairs, to a delicious meal.But unluckily for her, things weren’t going according to plan.As the time passed by, Katherine felt a growing sen

    Chapter 63Katherine tossed and turned in bed lousily. She could feel the sunrays hitting her exposed skin and when she tumbled over, she almost rolled and fell down from the bed. Her body jolted awake and her eyes fluttered open. Yesterday was completely hectic and her mind immediately circled back to the last conversation that she had with Lucifer before they went to bed. He seemed to be very nonchalant about the whole thing, but she didn’t know. How would she know anything at all? She was new—a stranger— to Lucifer Cain’s life, and although she wasn’t expecting much it hurt. The way he had replied left him feeling almost unsettled and she tried to brush it off, but she couldn’t seem to.She remembered exactly what happened as clear as day:Lucifer’s lips curled into a slow, predatory smirk, his sharp gaze pinning Katherine in place. He leaned back against the cushions, his uninjured arm draped lazily over the edge of the couch."I can see right through you, Katherine, and jealous

    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 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 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 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
