Red was looking around the mansion with Ava walking behind her.

"Ava... Tell me, Does Lucifer always stay away from home?" She asked, leaning on the railing.

"Yeah. He's a busy person. He usually goes to the club after work and comes home late at night."

"I see. Do you know how many women he's been with?"

"You are the first woman."

"Are you sure he is interested in women in the first place?" She asked.

"I don't know." Ava shrugged.

"Of course. Who knows?"

"And why do you care?" Lucifer's voice came.

"Oh hey, Welcome home, Hubby." Red waved. His brows arched in irritation as he motioned Ava to leave them alone.

"Don't give me those stupid nicknames." He muttered.

"Why? They are a way to express love." She smiled.

"Are you drunk?" He asked, taking a step closer.

"Nope. Why?"

"You are out of your mind." He sighed.

"I was asking. Since we are going to live with each other we can get to know each other." She said walking after him.

"It's been a month and I only get to see your f

"Oh him, The owner of Black Fabrics, well they are famous all over the world." Red said. "You know him?""I have heard about him.""Yeah... Him. He came." Jonathon muttered. "Wow. All the way from NYC." Red mumbled. "Anyways, I need to go, there are a lot of preparations which need to be done." He said in a hurry. "We can understand, it's your show. I just wanted my wife to meet you." Lucifer said politely. "It was nice meeting you but I gotta go. See you later." He waved and left. After he left, Lucifer turned to Red, "So... how was it?" She smirked and replied."This is just the start." "Okay... okay. The show will start soon. Come on." Lucifer said, they went.

    "Anyways, Where are you going for your honeymoon?" Mr Grave asked. "Nowhere." Red said. "To our villa." Lucifer interrupted. "Why there? Go somewhere else. How about New York?" Mr Grave recommended it. "No." Red quickly said, making everyone look at her. "I don't like going outdoors much... I asked Lucifer to go there." Red made up an excuse, not wanting to go to America. "I see. When are you going then?" Mrs Grave asked. "There's another fashion show next week. And since Iris loves them, we will leave after it." Lucifer said. "Aw Lucifer, Thank you! I love you so much." Red thanked him. "It's my duty, love to keep her happy for my remaining breaths." Lucifer smiled. The compliment made both of them laugh to hear such words but they kept their posture. "God, Lucifer. I didn't know you were so charming." Mr Grave said. "I guess now I can say he has traits like you." Mrs Grave let out an exhale of relief, finished her tea. "Like us." Mr Grave corrected her. "

    "You can't do this to me, Erich." Kylie whispered, taking a step back. A night before her show, Erich showed up at her place with his stone cold gaze and attractive features she can never resist. "You don't have a choice." He said sternly, holding her chin. Not breaking the dark gaze, making her heart race along with the breath which caught up in her throat. "I have a show tomorrow." She managed to speak in his superior presence. "I don't care, love." He said slowly, pressing her against the wall, pulling her close to him. "I only have tomorrow and by all means, I need to talk to Iris Grave." "She is Lucifer's wife and he is extremely possessive about what belongs to him. I have known him for years." She reasoned, barely keeping her posture. "Baby, that's why I am asking you. You have known him, you can easily manage to get Iris to talk to me. I am asking for a few moments." He leaned down, smirking, his voice seductive. She gulped, tears brimming in her eyes. "Please,

    ~ Present ~ Red slowly lifted her gaze and met with Erich's, who was waiting for her at the altar, giving her a profound gaze of endearment, impatient for this day to come and fulfill his desire. "Please take care of my daughter." Mrs Bennet said, handing her precious daughter to Erich. "Don't mention, Mrs Bennet. She is more precious than my life to me." Not removing his eyes from Red, he replied. Knowing the deception of words, his voice came smooth. But to Red's ignorance, His words were pure, not a fake consolation. They stood at the altar and he complimented, "You are looking so graceful yet tempting." "Thanks. But don't forget the reason for our marriage." She replied coldly. "I will keep you happy." He said sincerely, holding her hands. "Just fulfill your obligations." Red swallowed hard, lowering her gaze. The priest cleared his throat and asked, "Shall we start?" They both took a deep breath, looked at each other and said at the same time, "Yes." A tear fell

    "But your every path leads to my destination, Erich. Look at you, here you are being all mine. And embed it in your soul, you can never leave me. Today is the proof of it." Red told him with a faint smirk, the truth about the connection of their soul. "I don't know. You are not a part of my life but my very soul resides in you, Red." He confessed, moving away. She took off the corset and turned to him, holding his hands. What can I ask from God when I have you, Red? They were looking down but Erich moved away, pulling his hand back. "Uh.. I will leave, you change." He looked away, she was only in her petticoat, not wanting to look at her. "Wait, help me to hang this heavy dress first." Red stopped him. They hand the wedding dress in the closet and she sighed, "God, it was heavy. Who creates such difficult dresses?" "You." He replied with a chuckle. "Oh yeah. From my best bridal collection. Huff." She shook her head. "Red.. I am supposed to give you a gift for our w

"Sir, you are turning into a person you never were." Harry was concerned for his Boss who lost the track of virtue. "I know but I can't take it anymore.""When you can't see her being someone else then why did you let her go in the first place?" Harry asked. "I am already drowning in consternation, Harry. Don't immerse me more." But deep down Lucifer knows the answer of why he let her go."Sir...""I am leaving to meet our guest. You take care of things here." Lucifer ordered and left for home.

    Red couldn't get his demeanour but did as told. In the evening when Erich came, Red tried to talk to him about it but he didn't tell her anything. Erich gave Red a room key and left. Perplexed, Red went to the room. The room was dim and the only source of light was the candles spread everywhere, creating an aesthetic sight while flowers embellished evermore. Enchanted, Red looked around and saw a teddy with 'I love you' written on it along with another note which told her to stand in the circle of rose petals. Flushed by everything Red stood there. Delighted and thrilled to see what is happening. She turned and saw Lucifer coming. He stood in front of her and bent on one knee. Red gasped ,covering her mouth, not believing this moment is true and she is about to face the beautiful moment she imagined will Lucifer was already to complete their tale of love with an eternal bond of salvation.

    "I am telling you, I didn't do it." Red argued over the dinner table with everyone there. "You are lying, Red. Say you didn't expose Parker's cheater girlfriend in the whole university." Erich asked. "Yeah I did but I didn't announce cheating." Red shrugged. "Liar, you made Peter do it." "Indirectly, it was all your fault." Lucifer hummed, eating his food in silence while Erich was telling the time when Red exposed Parker's ex and humiliated her in the whole university for cheating on her friend. "So, that bitch was cheating on him." Red shrugged. "Anyways, I then leak the result about the pre-" Red was cut off by Lucifer, "Turn off your radio, Red. We should eat in silence." Erich broke into laughter, "Radio?" He asked. "Yeah, she rambles twenty four, seven." Lucifer said and Erich continued to laugh. "Why are you laughing?" Red asked in irritation.

    Erich tried to make her understand but Lucifer decided to leave. He called Erich to let him know he can't do it and he should also give his and Red's relationship a chance. "Hello Erich. Man, I can't do it anymore. I am leaving." "What? No, Lucifer. You can't leave like this." "Why are you hurting yourself? Give yourself a chance." Lucifer tried to make him understand. "You are not getting it, Lucifer. She pity me and love cannot arouse between us." "Why are you doing this when she wants to live with you!?" Lucifer angrily asked. "Because it hurts me everytime to see her! I cannot look into her eyes because her love is stolen from her because of me!" Erich replied in the same outraged tone. He grit his teeth, calming down. "Okay, meet her once before leaving." Lucifer opened his mouth to say something but Erich spoke up, "At least, let her choose." Lucifer wanted to argue but agree, thinking it might be for the best if Red chose herself. Erich and Lucifer met outside he

    Red lowered her head and hid it in Lucifer's chest. Erich curved his lips in dejection and continued in a broken voice, "When I had no expectation then how can I get hurt?" "I don't want to hurt you." Red said, not meeting his gaze in contrition. "What about you Red? Are you going to live your life with me all because you don't want to break my heart? What about your heart? Your emotions? I cannot live like this with you. I want your elation." "But.. but what about the sorrows I gave you. I-" Erich cut her off, "I will gather myself." Erich smiled and lowered his head, continuing in a crying tone, "But I cannot bound you with me knowing you love someone else. I.. can't do this." Red looked at him timidly, stopping her cries, "Please forgive me." Erich wiped his tears and smiled, "Red I love your happiness, If it won't exist then what's the point of my love?" Erich came closer, the soft smile still on his lips along with the tears shining like gems on his exquisite emeral

    "Even if it hurts you?" Red asked between her sobs, looking at him innocently. "Even if it hurts me." He smiled, cupping her cheek with his one hand, dearing the warmth and wiping the tear with his thumb. "Why are you so indulgent with me!? Why can't you say what's in your heart?! Why can't you say you want me to be yours?!" Red asked, crying again, hitting his chest. "Because my words would become an obstacle to your path and I want you to choose the path to solace." He said, holding her face and pulling it close to her, boring his eyes into hers. "But Erich.. I.. I.." Red sniffed, trying to say something. "It's okay." He whispered. "I can't do this..." She whispered back. "Shh. Don't think about it more. Your joy matters to me." He said, stroking the side of her face with his hand, removing the tears which stained her charm. "I am sorry. I am so sorry.. Please forgive me..." Red weeped, lowering her head in shame. "Red, can I ask for something?" He asked. "What?" "A pictur

    The next day. April couldn't stay any longer and decided to leave before anything else happened because of her. Also, she doesn't want to ruin lives by her presence anymore. "Are you sure about leaving?" She smiled and nodded. "And you will not come back?" He asked again. "Lucifer, I have done nothing to find a reason to come back." "How could you leave after the chaos?" April laughed a little, "I have demolished everything, that's why I am leaving. And nothing could stop me. I'm sorry if I can't help you anymore but I have to go... It.. suffocates me to see Erich and Red.. I can't take it anymore." Her voice cracked up. She sniffed, resisting her tears and continued in a croaky voice, "I didn't intend to become like this. After Erich ended our sessions, I had no intentions of entering his life again. I just wanted to go back, being Red's friend only but.. I came because of you but I can't do it anymore." "April..." Lucifer called, looking at her compassionately. "Thanks for ev

    On her way back, her car's tyre got punctured. She called a mechanic and was waiting for him but then saw Lucifer in April's car who was going to her outlet but when he saw her on the road he stopped. "Red..." He called her, coming to her. "Why are you here?" Red asked. "I wanted to see you." He replied. "You did, now leave." She sighed. "Waiting for a mechanic?" He asked. She rolled her eyes, leaning on her car, ignoring him. Lucifer laughed a little to himself and stared at her. Red tried her best to ignore his gaze and smile but couldn't resist and ask out of annoyance, "What are you staring at?" "You." He replied. "Then stop doing it, it's creepy." She said, His smile turned into a sad one as he lowered his head. "Sorry if that made you uncomfortable but what can I do when I love your hair." He said, looking at her again. "I am sorry if it was unpleasant but I love your smiles." He said with a tear stinging in his eye. "I still love the radiance you no longer pos

    "I want to start things over between us." Red breathed out, closing her eyes while Erich traced his fingers on the side of her face with his heart racing rapidly. "Erich please." Red spoke inaudibly. Erich gently pushed her down on the bed and moved back, smiling, "Good night." He said and left her alone in the room to think about her words and thoughts. She couldn't sleep at night, nothing made sense to her with millions of questions roaming her mind and the betrayal pricked a needle in her heart, she needed guidance but seemed like she was being manipulated by sympathy. The next day, she woke up early and didn't find Erich next to her. He slept in the other room, She sighed, freshened up. Red readied up and looked at her dead eyes in the mirror. "Smile, Red. You are going to start a new life today." She told herself. And who do you truly love? A question echoed in her mind and blended angst. She shook her head, forming a fake smile and walked out.

    "See. When you can do this, why not April?" He taunted. "Lucifer. Stop." April whispered, holding his shirt, hiding behind his back, trying not to cry. "No. What do you think of yourself, Red? You are hurting everyone here by hiding your real emotions, why are you choosing pain rather than sorting everything out?" Red grit her teeth, averting her gaze with no reply escaping her lips because his words were the bitter reality. "Enough, Lucifer. Stop it." Erich said. Lucifer looked at Erich and let out a short laugh, "And look at this poor guy, Red. Contemplate his condition, it was all because of you." Lucifer scowled. Red curled her hands, drowning in guilt for what happened to Erich by her unintentional words. "Stop it." Red managed to say. "Why? Can't-" Lucifer was cut off by April this time. "Please Lucifer. Stop." "No, Let him speak. What are you trying to show anyways, huh? Do you care? Don't give me this crap now." Red mocked. "Leave my house." April managed to say. "I am
