Rising early the next day, I heat up a breakfast sandwich and head out of my cabin to meet the rest of my group at the picnic tables. Since we arrived at the Canyon, we’ve agreed to eat as a team and talk about our findings. It’s a good way for us to connect with each other and diminish the feeling of isolation.
I yawn with exhaustion as I step out of my door. I spent most of the night tossing and turning. And when I slept, my dreams were a mixture of oddly discomfiting dreams where I was having an unknown conversation with a glowing entity, and the other dreams starred me lying naked in a bathtub with a sexy devil.
I growl at the reminder. In one of the dreams, Lucifer’s hands washed more than my hair. I s

Lucifer Chapter 6: Hindsight
Lucifer I look down at my mate’s crumpled form as she struggles with madness. She’s covered in demon blood, and her eyes are glowing like the sun. But there is no lucidity in that light. Despair, as I’ve never felt, fills me when she repeats the same phrase over and over again and claws at her delicate skin. “Lana, look at me…” I kneel down and gaze into her maddened eyes. “…please, look at me…” Lana is too far gone as blood pours from her lips, and she begins to gag. Seeing that she might die if I do not do anything, I place my hand over her head and make her insentient. As soon as I do, all of the tension leaves her body, and she collapses into a faint. Reaching down, I carefully lift her into my arms and flash us out of the cave. Unsure of what to d
Lucifer Chapter 7: The witching hour
Lana I look at my bloody hands and tighten them into fists as fire crawls across my skin. But I don’t burn, which is strange. Laughter roars from my lips as I stroll through a dark forest and run my fiery hands across the trees and the grass, lighting everything up. With each stroke of my hand, the grass burns and the trees turn to ash. It’s only when my sister, Bree, rushes toward me and the fire consumes her that screams of terror burst from my lips. That’s when I’m awakened from my nightmare. Shooting up from the bed, I clutch the cover tightly to my chest and look around the room, worried that I&
Lucifer Chapter 8: I don't remember ordering an Apocalypse
Lucifer Once I flash out of Lana’s room, I partially shift into my devil form and hone my senses until I reach the destination Azazel instructed me to go to. The earthquake occurred in the Arcata forest. Using my night vision, I try to find the entity that caused such havoc but see nothing. I land near a copse and look around for any signs of what it could have been until I reach a large section of the forest that looks like it was burnt to a crisp. The trees, dirt and grass around the ragged opening are scorched. Within minutes, Azazel and Mathias appear beside me. Mathias squats down and touches the scorched ground. The dirt glows where he touches it. He turns his hand and looks at his blood-soaked fingers. “What is
Lucifer Chapter 9: What is happening?
Lana I drag my feet this morning as I make my way to the communal dining space. Tony, Jill and Kyle are already sitting down at one of the tables. Jill and Kyle are talking and eating while Tony quietly gazes down at the open book in his hand. Sitting beside Jill, I become startled when she hands me a bag of cookies. Taking the bag, I give her a grateful smile. “What’s this?” She smiles back. “Just thought you could use a pick me up.” Kyle looks at the bag and scowls. “Hey, I want some.” Jill rolls her eyes and slaps hi
Lucifer Chapter 10: Our book of revelations
Lucifer I give Lana one last long look before I flash to my throne room. Thinking through my options, I send out several texts and evaluate everything Lana has shared with me. Lana is finally becoming aware of the angel living inside her, which, based on my conversation with Michael, concerns me greatly. If her angel is making itself know, then it’s becoming more powerful. I look through my tomes for answers as I consider all of the angles to this new revelation. Within a half-hour, Azazel, Fallon, and Michael appear in my throne room. All eyes turn to Michael as soon as he appears. Rising from my seat, I stop beside my brother and say, “Michael, this is my son, Fallon and one of my former demon lords, Azazel.”
Lucifer Chapter 11: Any thoughts
Lana …Freedom comes at a price. I observe through my eyes helplessly as I repeat those words to Lucifer. I know that this is no nightmare, though. No, I can still feel everything, but I’m not longer in the driver’s seat of my body. Fractured emotions rush through my mind as I try to seduce Michael and threaten Lucifer. I want to scream for help, but I can’t. As I lie in wait, trapped in my own body, I begin to understand what I am. Flashes of what I thought were visions turn out to be memories. Fear overwhelms me when Lucifer asks the other me about the fires, and my vision begins to darken. A ball of ice spreads across my body, coating me with power as I see images of bloody oceans and every light in the sky dim until I’m in complete darkness. It’s only when I feel a familiar
Lucifer Chapter 12: Wait, there’s more?
Chapter 12: Wait, there’s more?Lucifer I hold Lana’s hand as I flash us back to her temporary home. This morning we woke up, made love, and bathed together. Or at least I tried to bathe before I bent her over the shower stall and took her again. We kissed and touched for a while, content to be in each other’s arms until we had no choice but to leave. “I know there’s a lot we need to speak about, luv. Can I come by tonight?” I mutter against her plump lips. I want to explain everything, but with how delicate her tenuous hold on Apolliana is at the moment, I worry that I might drive her over the edge. La
Lucifer Chapter 13: Maybe I just need to take my meds
Lana I wipe my dirty hands on my shorts as I take a couple of samples from an old sedimentary deposit. I look around the large cavern and make my way to some of the niches on the ground. Water flows from the openings on the wall, and shadows dance around the ground from the flickering lights in the openings around the ceiling. The cavern is beautiful with its earthy colors of red, brown and auburn. It feels like I’m walking inside of the sun. Smiling widely, I walk across the smooth ground until I come to a massive drop below. The yawning opening is pretty deep. Earlier, I threw a large rock, and it took a while before I heard it strike the ground. “I wouldn’t get closer if I were you, chérie.” A smooth male voice mutters behind me.&n

Lucifer Chapter 28: Epilogue
Lucifer Fallon, my brothers Gabriel and Michael stand by me at the altar while Rafael prepares to officiate my wedding. Looking back, I adjust my tuxedo jacket and look onto our guests. At first, my brothers thought I was mad when I decided to propose to Lana, considering we’re already soulmates and we’re angels, but after I explained that I wanted her to be recognized as mine under every law, they relented. Lana and I decided to have a small ceremony in our home. We hired a planner who set up a wedding arch covered in sheer drapes and colorful flowers. The warm ocean breeze is gentle, and the platform we set up to seat our desks and the altar keeps the sand off our shoes. The wooden chairs are spaced out around the p
Lucifer Chapter 27: Epilogue
Lana I walk up the podium and accept my diploma with a happy grin before turning and facing my cheering family. Lucifer claps loudly while my crazy sister and Zoe jump up and down gleefully. Azazel and Fallon give them women a horrified look when their women start chanting my name. I love both women, but sometimes they can be so embarrassing. Over the past months, so much has happened. As Lucifer and I agreed, I went back to the Grand Canyon and finished my research with my team. They were none the wiser of what happened after I disappeared. Somehow, Michael made it, so the project was extended until I gathered all of the information that I needed.Bree was happy when I told her that I was moving in with Lucifer. His house
Lucifer Chapter 26: Thoughts
Lucifer “I’m sorry, Gabriel, but I don’t remember much about my sisters. Even in my visions, their faces were obscured by shadows. I don’t even know their human names. I just referred to them by their horsemen names. All I can tell you is that they were close to my age. The other had brown hair and oddly shaded eyes, and the other had red hair. The only thing they had in common is that they all seemed to be frightened of someone who wanted to hurt them. I don’t remember anything else. I’m sorry,” Michael sits forward in his seat and places his elbows on his knees thoughtfully. “We understand, chérie.” Rafael looks intently into the fireplace and frowns, “Perhaps we can speak to a witch. There might be a spell that can help us
Lucifer Chapter 25: Good News
Lana I grip Lucifer’s hand tightly as we stand outside my sister’s home. Lucifer told me that since my death, Bree and Azazel have frequently been stopping in to check on Bree. My heart beat’s wildly in my chest; I ring the doorbell and tap my foot as I wait for the door to open. Fallon opens the door with a smile that quickly turns to shocks when he sees me. “Lana?” he blinks fast as if he thinks he might be seeing things. “We can explain everything once you let us in?” Lucifer snickers. Fallon opens the door wide and gestures for us to walk in.&nb
Lucifer Chapter 24: Perfect beginning
Lucifer “No!” I cry out as I watch the love of my life stab herself in the heart and plunge into The Creator’s seal. Despair fills me as I rush to the chasm, but I know I will not get there in time. Bursts of light erupt around me, nearly blinding me as The Creator shatters to pieces like broken glass and is sucked into the void. I don’t care what happens after that as the power gets sucked back into the abyss. I follow the current of power as it drains, but I don’t see Lana anywhere. Within seconds the power sizzles out, and all that is left is darkness. “Lana!” I call out helplessly, “Lana, I’m here!” Unfortunately, the only sound that I hear is my voice echoing back t
Lucifer Chapter 23: To Pass
Lana As soon as I move closer to the mele, my sisters halt their fighting and face me. “Stop, sisters! What we’re doing is wrong!” I call out pleadingly. “Traitor!” Death calls out as she launches herself toward me. We both collide in a clash of power. The others try to attack the men as they fight The Creator, but I circumvent them before they intervene. My sisters are strong, but I wield the ultimate power. When one slashes at my back, I roll away, barely avoiding her, skewering my spine. Unfortunately, she does manage to do some damage, but
Lucifer Chapter 22: Make or Break
Lucifer Lana’s form wavers before me as she watches her sister begin to plummet. I try to reach Fallon and Bree, but The Creator pulls them away. To my surprise, Lana catches Bree before she could fall and flies her to a safer spot. I don’t know what made her save Bree, but I don’t question it as I stab at the Creator’s talon and manage to seize Fallon from his hold. “Fallon,” I call to him as I desperately try to heal his wound. “I'm fine…” he sputters weakly as blood pours from his lips, “…he missed my heart.” Flying down, I set him next to Bree and turn to a confused Lana. Her body sways as she looks around with horror, “What have I done?” sh
Lucifer Chapter 21: Here we are
Lana/ Apolliana My sisters and I stand on the cavern's edge located above a bast void that drops several thousand feet. Within the void is The Creator’s sacred stone covering the sacred seal. We hold our mates’ blood in a vile as The Creator adds his power and brings us one step closer to unleashing destruction into the world. Power radiates through the cavernous room, vibrating against the high ceilings. It’s so thick that you can almost touch it. Shadows flicker around the darkened chamber's sandstone surface, creating eerie figures across the rocky ceiling and earthy ground. Our voices echo through the vast openings that stream like veins creating an underground labyrinth that leads to yawning voids, cracks a
Lucifer Chapter 20: It’s the end of the world as we know it
Lucifer I shoot up from my perch with a gasp and open my eyes as I search frantically for my mate. “Lana!” I call out. Unfortunately, all I see is the destruction of my house. A chandelier hangs precariously from the ceiling, furniture is turned over or broken, and all of my windows are shattered. My once gleaming hardwood floors are cracked and broken. Michael and Rafael stop beside me and give me grim frowns. “Where the bloody hell is she?” I ask. Michael shakes his head, “I don’t know, frère; she flashed out of the
