Standing, Lucifer looks around, his mind going to Belial, of course, now he can connect with Belial before he was blocking Lucifer out to hide the fact he was with Anais.
“Brother.”
Lucifer turns.
“What happened with Damon?” That is the priority now.
“His friend got pictures of Damon and his wife,” Belial explains while grabbing a drink.
“That is it? He shouldn’t still be alive.” Lucifer looks at him shocked, he would have hurt Anais if he got a chance.
“She said to leave him, so leave him. He isn’t a threat Lucifer.” Belial shrugs his shoulders.
“You and Anais?” Lucifer looks at him, unsure of what he wants to ask or how much he wants to know.
“It was fun, Lucifer, nothing more than fun. Ask her she will tell you that herself. You need to figure out what you’re doing, the curse Lucifer.” Belial looks at him waiting.
Lucifer sits quietly. He hadn’t considered the curse, not entirely anyway, so he has no idea of
“Lucifer.” His head raises as he looks at Dom. “All four are in the room waiting.” Nodding, he walks through, the men looking towards him. “You can leave. You were worried I would shoot the messenger. I don’t blame you.” Lucifer watches as they stand and nod. Stepping forward, he shakes his head. “Not you two, they can go, but not you two.” He watches as they leave, the remainder two looking at him confused.“Sorry. Just like them, we didn’t want to be the ones to pass on the message. We would not only be telling you about Belial but also that those two knew and hid. It was a double target on our heads.”
Jumping, she turns to face the door hearing the knocking. Opening it, her body gets pushed through, and the door slams shut.“You’re never alone these days! Then I noticed that new guy and realised this was my last chance.” Anais stands staring at Damon. Still too shocked by everything to even speak.“If I agreed, Anais, agreed to only have you. Will you come with me, like before?” Damon stands in front of her. “If not, I may as well kill you, Anais. I have nothing left to lose right now.”She stays quiet, everything flooding her mind, unable to concentrate, drowning beneath her thoughts and feelings. H
Anais smiles as Lucifer walks towards her. “You made a mess, Kitten.” His head shakes. “Nothing compared to the mess you make, Master. I needed my energy for us playing.” She has been waiting all day, and one way to pass the boredom is to eat. “I guess you are right there, Kitten. You saw just the sort of mess I left after my crazed days of feeding. Are you ready to play?” “I was ready this morning when you said I had to wait because you had plans. What were they anyway?” He never said. “Nothing to bother yourself with, Kitten. Get in that room and strip.” He smiles at her, watching as she walks through. Walking out, he stops. “I’ll be gone soon, don’t worry. She will have no idea I was even here.” Belial walks through. Lucifer nods and goes back to the room with Anais, his eyes falling on her as she is kneeling there naked, waiting. Walking around, he collects some items. He was wrong when it came to this. Anais had as
The door opens, and her eyes glance up. Her hand stops as she holds the food.“Belial.” She hasn’t seen him once. He stayed away because of what he did.“Hey. Sorry, I was meant to be gone ages ago, just forgot something I had to tell Lucifer. I will wait in another room.” Turning, he goes to leave.“No, you’re fine Belial. How are you?” She needs to get over this, sure this isn’t the life she wanted, but it isn’t as bad as she was expecting. She won’t lose Lucifer now before the future was unknown. She would get old and die. He wouldn’t. Now, well, there is no way she can die. Well, she can because she can die, and Lucifer can’t. She watches as Belial sits down with h
Six months have passed, and Belial has only visited a couple of times, yet he seems to keep his distance. Anais looks at him, wondering if he really fears loving her just as Lucifer had. He is only here now because Lucifer felt she was safer with Balial watching over her. "So is this how it will go Belial?" Anais questions. "How what will go?" He turns and looks at her for a second before averting his eyes again. "The next twenty-four hours. You sat silent avoiding looking at me. If it is that painful to be around me Belial get someone else to babysit me for Lucifer." He whips his head around clearly shocked by my words. "I'm not a weak mortal anymore, Lucifer needs to remember that!" I don't get why he is so afraid of letting me be alone. "How can he forget? He wants you safe, he loves you. So just let him do it." "Does he though?" She can't help but wonder if he does. "That is your stupid human side coming free, put it away and keep it locked up until I leave please" Belial
Anais smiles, "I like the idea of you killing me, Lucifer." "Do not play games with me, Anais. I had no idea if you were safe or not! I was close to making Belial pay for losing you!"I watch as her eyes roam my body. "This is a new you that I haven't seen before Lucifer. Can this lecture wait? I think this kitten needs to play with the devil." she bites her lip. "I wonder, have all parts of you changed Lucifer?"Her hand grips my belt, pulling me to her. The action has me growling at her. "Are you, still you down there?" I watch as she begins to unfasten my belt. Slowly, I feel myself calming down."Please, Lucifer," Her words begging me."I can not just switch this side on and off. It just happens and not often."I watch her face, seeing a plan form."Belial would agree, actually, he would beg, maybe I should get him to?" I close my eyes, trying to ignore her words, but my body reacts."The mighty Lucifer, weak like the pathetic mortals he feared tuning into. You turned soft on
Belial:I watch as Lucifer comes towards me, my eyes widen and I laugh."Now brother don't go scaring the children." I watch as he doesn't even react, just walks past me, turning I look at the direction he came from, walking towards their room I walk in."Anais." I laugh slightly. "What game did you try to play this time?" I step into the room and see her on the floor, my eyes widen and I rush to her. She is almost dead, the blood covers her body, her neck has a large hole and her arm is somehow behind her.Lifting her I move her to the bed, trying my best to heal her, but I never heal. "What did he do?" I stare at her. "Sorry, but this will hurt." I don't know if she can hear me, she seems so out of it. I grasp her arm, pulling hearing it break again as I quickly place it back in the correct position. She screams, trying to move as I hold her down."Lucifer?" She looks at me, then confusion sweeps across her face."Belial, Anais, I am Belial. What happened? He almost killed you."
It has been three days. Lucifer has yet to return to me, and I now know that I was wrong for pushing him. He tried to warn me.I have listened, the number of bodies keep rising. Standing outside the room, I listen as Belial talks."All women? Are you sure?" The confusion heard in his voice." I checked again. All women, all odly have similarities to Anais. "The guys words shock me." No one is to say, Anais shouldn't know. I knew it would happen." Belial sounds stressed."Why though? It makes no sense Belial."" Lucifer has always killed for fun, for pleasure. Women were toys. He would fuck them, and kill them in the process. That stopped, he didn't even kill them. The fact they all resemble Anais says he resents her, but the curse is stopping him from killing her."Belials words hurt, is this the result of me? Maybe I should have made him stay as he was? Walking back to my room I sit and consider everything.He must love me. why else would he avoid killing me? It gives me hope I can
