CHAPTER 44

“Wow, I’m surprised, Lucifer.” Tricia laughed, placing a plate of freshly baked banana bread and milk on his table—one of his guilty pleasures.

“Oh, why?” Lucifer frowned, as he looked up at her. The smell of banana bread tingled his senses and he instinctively leaned forward to pick a piece of the plate, “And thank you.”

“This place hasn’t been this clean in a while. I guess all it needs is a little bit of light dusting.” She picked up her feather duster, which she usually kept in his study, and moved to the rows of books and files organized in the cabinet.

Lucifer hummed in response, seeming to be lost in something else. When Tricia turned around, she realized that Lucifer was indeed fixated on something, but it wasn’t their conversation. Sometimes, a part of her felt bad, since he didn’t have his parents around anymore.

But, to her, Lucifer was like the son she never had. After being unable to give birth to children of her own, she became sullen, but being able to take

    Chapter 45“What does it look like I’m doing?” He asked sharply, pulling the seatbelt over her and clicking it in place, before he sat back in his seat to do the same with himself. God! She hated this man and his stupid antics. She crossed her arms, her cheeks tinted a light shade of pink as he started up the engine, and pulled out of the estate. It wasn’t a far drive before Lucifer swiftly pulled into the parking lot of a shopping complex. It was what, 9 A.M.? And this man just dragged her out of the house in pajamas and bunny slippers. “Come on, let’s go.” He urged, clicking out of his seat, and clicking her out of hers, before turning around to pull the door open for her. She reluctantly stepped down from the car, and he shut the door, locking the car before they moved on into a retail store. At this time of day, it wasn’t odd for someone to be in a store with pajamas on, but she had a muscular, hot man in a suit next to her, which definitely called attention to them. He took a

    Chapter 46Lucifer jolted upright in bed, his breaths rugged and his chest heaving as the lingering images of his nightmare clawed at his mind. The room was dark, but the striking echoes of screams still rang loudly in his ears.In the dream, he had been standing in a nearly empty room. The floor was painted with crimson red. The stench of death was suffocating, and with each step he took, he feared he was only going deeper into the lion’s den. Bodies lay scattered everywhere, faceless figures he couldn’t identify. And then, there she was—his motherShe stood a far distance from Lucifer, her dress torn and streaked with blood, her eyes hollow and filled with unspeakable pain. She tried to scream, but no sound came. His legs felt weak and wobbly, and no matter how hard he pushed and how fast he ran, he couldn’t reach her.Then, a shadow emerged behind her. It wasn’t a man but a monstrous figure—a manifestation of his own sins. The shadow struck her down in one swift motion, her lifeles

    Chapter 47~~Katherine got to work, sprinkling some fertilizer into the soil. The flowers had been looking a little wilted recently, and she wasn’t going to allow them to die. Not under her watch. Besides, where were the gardeners? A bodyguard that had been assigned to her, stood in the corner watching over her as she worked. She couldn’t step out of the house itself, without a guard being with her, and although this was the first time, it made her feel uncomfortable.She hissed, dusting her hands off on her overalls as she stood up to get the watering can a few inches away from her. Though, before she could reach it, someone else beat her to it. “Here.” The familiar, deep voice rang in her ears, and she looked up to meet the sun almost blinding her eyes. She stood up, grabbed the watering can from Lucifer’s hands, and moved back to the flowers she was tending to. “Thanks.” She mumbled, fixing on pouring water. He wasn’t in his usual dressy attire and she couldn’t help but notice

    Chapter 48“Boss!” A guard said as Lucifer walked by, his head held high. The men bowed their heads in respect of Lucifer, surprised to see him there. It had been a good while since Lucifer had even visited the club, and it came as a shock to all once he stepped in. Lucifer barely acknowledged the guard’s call, his cold gaze sweeping across the dimly lit areas of the club. His presence exuded authority, one that alerted everyone to his arrival. The hum of music from the main floor reverberated through the walls, but it seemed to flower as the staff parted to make way for him through the club.He stepped deeper into the club, his polished leather shoes clicking against the floor. The low, sultry laughter and chatter in the stripper's back room stilled the moment he entered. Heads turned, and one by one, the women froze in place, their gazes flickering toward him.“Lucifer,” one of them whispered, her voice barely audible over the loud bass of the music leaking in from the main hall.A

    CHAPTER 49“Come to think of it, you might be right.” He nodded, following along with her words. It had been about a week now, since they had had sex, and he felt like maybe that could be the issue. “Then, you have to make it extra spicy and enjoyable for her. So, she lets loose.” Natalia advised, even though she could hear the sound of blood rushing through her ear. Her throat felt constricted with jealousy, yet she tried her best to maintain her composure. “Well, it’s best you come with me then.”“I-I don’t understand what you mean by that…”“A threesome. I’ll surprise her with that, I’m sure she’ll enjoy it.” He murmured, standing up. “Clock out and meet me in the car.” So, silently, Natalia did so and they drove home. He sneaked Natalia into his room, making sure that the coast was clear. Taking a while to set up the room with music, dim lights and some wine. After all, he sought out Katherine and found her in her room.“Lucifer.” She snapped her book shut, staring up at him, b

    Chapter 50Katherine felt like she had just been hit by a ton of bricks. She knew she was in her bed, but she was also entirely unsure of how she even got there in the first place. Her eyes fluttered, slowly blinking open. The lights radiating from the ceiling made it difficult for her to open her eyes properly. As soon as she attempted to peel them open, the light instantly flashed in her eyes, making her head throb and she lightly groaned in pain. Lucifer who was sat in the chair by the bed, hurriedly stood up, towering over her small body which lay on the bed. Once again, her eyes fluttered open, but this time she met light blue eyes peering back at her. “Ah!” She yelped in fright, almost jumping out of her own skin. She hurriedly shifted back, hoping she’d get away from whoever it was, but when she did a double-take, she realized that he was someone very familiar to her. “Katherine…are you okay?” Lucifer’s deep voice asked as he tapped her shoulder gently.

    Chapter 51“Pregnant?” Lucifer repeated once again, his eyes wide. He couldn’t believe his ears.“Yes,” the doctor confirmed, nodding as he looked down at his clipboard.. “We’ll need to run additional tests to confirm how far along she is and ensure both mother and baby are healthy.”The doctor’s voice faded into the background as Lucifer’s mind raced. His gaze shifted to the door behind which Katherine lay. She didn’t know yet.And neither of them was ready for what this revelation would mean.“Okay…thank you, doctor.” He said, his voice almost low as he looked back at Katherine sleeping on the bed. He took a deep breath, moving to take a seat. It didn’t take long before Katherine woke up from her slumber, lifting her head. Lucifer rushed to her side, “Kat, you’re awake…” He said, placing a hand on her cheek, and using his thumb to caress her face gently. Katherine groaned, pushing his hand away restlessly. She felt as though she could barely move, her limbs were too weak to move o

    Chapter 52Lucifer walked into Katherine’s room with a small box in hand, wrapped with a bow. Just yesterday, she’d been discharged from the hospital, and ever since then, it’d been bed rest only. She wasn’t allowed to go anywhere on her own, even though she was still weak and didn’t really have anywhere to go. She flipped through the pages of a book, her back resting against the headboard of the bed comfortably as she seemed to be engrossed in the pages. She hadn’t even noticed when Lucifer walked into the room, despite his louding. Her head snapped up once she heard someone clearing their throat. The familiar blue eyes looked down at her, and she placed her book face-down on the bed beside her, adjusting her posture. “Oh, Lucifer…” She glanced at his hand, to look at the box he held. “What’s the matter?” She frowned, her lips turning into a slight pout. “Nothing is wrong, Katherine. I just thought you might need this.” He said sharply, pushing the box into her hand. “What is it

    Chapter 86Katherine struggled to breathe as her sweaty hands' grip tightened on the plate that she held in her hands. She silently choked back her sobs as she stumbled away from the door, running to her room.Her head ached and her heart pounded so hard that her chest felt as if it could rip open at any more. Why did Lucifer always make her feel like shit? Was she just nothing to Lucifer? A pawn in his game?She quickly entered the room, locking the door behind her and sliding her back down against it. The bread that she had baked for him still sat on the plate, though cold now.In a fit of rage, she stood up and threw both the cake and plate into the trash bin, before she flopped on her bed. The world just kept spinning all around her and she could barely think straight anymore.The warmth and excitement that she had felt for the long-awaited gender reveal had turned into a feeling so hollow and bland. Everything that she’d heard today just dampened her mood. Now, who was she to be

    Chapter 85“Turn around,” Lucifer ordered as he narrowed his eyes. The petite girl in front of him spun, flaunting her curvy, perfectly-shaped ass right in his face. Not as perfect as Katherine’s though.Even though this wasn’t for any sexual reasons, he couldn’t get the image of Katherine out of his head. “Closer.” He grunted and she complied, stepping closer to Lucifer. He scanned over her body, before directing her to the right side of the room with a swift motion of his fingers. She gave a small smile before following his order and sashaying. Time passed, and the girls seemed to bore him. There was no ounce of excitement aroused in him, which was fairly unusual, and at some point, he got so sleepy that he almost dozed off. With an annoyed grimace, he commanded Antonio to take the approved girls to the club to begin work immediately while the rejected grils were to leave. As they all started to file out, he retreated back to his study to round up the work for the day, but he was

    Chapter 84"I am utterly surprised." Katherine gasped, dropping some fertiliser onto the soil bed."Why?" Lucifer paused, looking at her. "A man of the underworld...in the garden!" She laughed throwing her hands up in surprise. "I know a few things about it. Don't think I don't." He squinted his eyes, watering the flowers. "Yeah, sure. You're not even holding the watering can right." She pointed out sassily. "You don't even know what you're talking about." He murmured, standing up. "I'm sure I do. I literally used to grow all the veggies back at home, Lucifer! But thanks for helping." She beamed. "Mhm." He wiped his face with handkerchief, "I'm thirsty." "There's some lemonade on the table under the gazebo, help yourself." She said, "I'll be right there. Let me attend to these lilies."He strode over to the gazebo as quick as he could, sitting down and pouring a glass of lemonade, downing it so fast to quench his parched throat.A few minutes later, Katherine joined him, taking

    Chapter 83"Don't tell me that you're turning this into a thing now Katherine?" Lucifer asked, lifting his eyes up from the documents in his hands. "What ever do you mean, Mr. Cain?" She smiled, her dimples on full display. "We have personnel hired for this. You don't have to cook, or clean, Katherine. You're overworking yourself and it isn't good for the baby.""You make it sound as if I'm working all the time," She rebutted sharply, plopping onto a single chair, "And besides, you don't hear me complaining now!" She sighed, propping her legs up and crossing them over the other while she popped cherries into her mouth. "This is the fourth day in a row that you've prepared breakfast or dinner," He looked at her knowingly, "It seems you're trying to adopt the title of housewife now, hm?" "Oh wow," Katherine snorted, "As if. I just kinda feel weird sitting around all day, with no work to do, and besides, it gives the chef some time to rest.""I'm paying them. They don't need rest, a

    Chapter 82Katherine had already made up her mind. Today wasn't just going to pass by with her lazing around. She was going to do something, and she would do it right.She quickly took her shower and got dressed before she stepped out of her room. Her hair had been made up into a tight, yet messy bun and she wore a casual dress, slipping into her sandals. Angelie was the first to notice Katherine popping her head out of the hallway, "Oh!" She yelped, almost startled to see her brown eyes staring right at her."Miss Katherine, is there anything I can help you with?" She hurried over to her side, and that's when her eyes traveled over her body. It was only 12 in the noon and Katherine was rarely ever showered and dressed by this time of day. "Nothing really," She wrinkled her nose in amusement, shaking her head. She stepped out from behind the wall she was peeking from and went to sit on the couch, "I just needed some of those reusable bags from the kitchen, but I have no idea where t

    Chapter 81“Did I- Did I say something wrong, boss?” Natalia looked confused. as Lucifer slowly sat up. He couldn’t deny that what she had just said definitely reminded him of what had already happened, but he stifled the words back down with a gulp. “I’m fine,” He finally said after a long bout of silence. His chest matched his breathing slowly as he turned to face her.“Why do you ask? Packages sound rather specific.” He mumbled, trying to sound as nonchalant and unfazed as possible, but it almost felt as though Natalia could see through his guard.Though, she didn’t. She only hummed, still in uncertainty of what had just happened with Lucifer. “Well, I heard from Chico.” She sighed. clasping her hands together, her eyes focusing straight on a lazy-looking Lucifer. Chico was one of Natalia's friend—a very helpful connection at that. He worked by the Mexican border, where shipments usually came through, and helped most of the dealers including Lucifer, smuggle in the drugs withou

    Chapter 80"Where the hell is he?" Lucifer grunted as he scrambled through his drawers, looking for a particular document. Surely if he didn't know where it was, then Antonio would.But he wasn't even here, and that pissed him off more than ever. His head held a dull throb and he groaned slamming the drawer shut angrily. "Fuck!" He hissed, running his fingers through his hair. He decided that he couldn't wait for Antonio to get back any longer, and would just go to the club to relax and ease his mind. Lucifer was almost certain that if he remained in this room with his anger fueling him, he'd slam his monitor against the wall.He left the study, locking it shut with his key behind him before he headed to his own bedroom to freshen up and change his clothes.As soon as he stepped out of the room, he was met with Antonio, whose eyes said much more than his mouth did. But, without a second glance, Lucifer slammed into him, "And where the fuck have you been? No one ever ignores my calls

    CHAPTER 79"Get up." Lucifer said, with a grunt as he pushed out of his seat. "Huh?" Isla gazed at him, an expression of faint confusion written all over her face. "Did I fucking stutter?" He neared her quickly, "I said stand up."She quickly nodded complying. It was a struggle while her hands and feet were bound, but she managed to stand up. That didn't stop the horrendous pain from surging through her muscles.Immediately, Lucifer pulled out a key from his pocket, sliding it into the small keyholes of the cuffs holding Isla's hand and legs enclosed and close together. "Ah, thank you so much!" Isla fell to her knees in gratitude. Did this mean that she wouldn't be sentenced back to that icy cold dungeon?With a smack of his lips, he shook his head urging her to stand back up, "You do not deserve this, but you could be of use to us soon," He clasped his hands together."So, with that being said, one of my guards shall be escorting you to the guest room.

Although Lucifers grip had softened, it still wasn't enough to sedate Isla and she breathed in through her nose in a panic. "G-Giovanni, I'm...working for him," She mumbled again, her voice merely a rasp. Almost as if fire had burned him, he pulled his hands away from her neck in confusion. Katherine hurriedly stood up from her seat with a small gasp. Isla doubled over, coughing so hard that she could feel blood threaten to bubble out of her mouth. She felt so lightheaded as though she could pass put at any moment and she took in big, raggedy breaths as her chest heaved up and down heavily.There was absolutely no way. "No..." She whimpered, placing her hand over her mouth, "It can't be." She shuddered, wrapping her arms around herself. "Giovanni?" Lucifer scoffed. She was just trying to look
