All Chapters of LUCIFER'S BANE: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

FLASHBACK 10 Lucifer had to patiently wait for the female’s mouth to close. When it did, he hissed in satisfaction but it opened again and Lucifer bared his fangs in annoyance. The female didn’t notice because she had heard something far worse than his brewing anger. “He what?” She finally whispered. “Lied to you”. Lucifer said to her.When she looked back at him, her expression had changed from shock to that of hurt. Lucifer wanted to laugh, she was going to experience more of that soon. “Why would he hide that from us?” Lucifer hissed. “Isn’t it obvious, he is intimidated by you”. The female looked at him with a confused expression. “Why? He created us,there is nothing about Adam and I that is intimidating”. She said. Lucifer hissed. Even if she was extremely innocent, she was smart. And here he was thinking it will be easy for him to persuade her. “He doesn’t have what you have”. “And that is?”

The voice that called out needed no introduction. Both Adam and his wife stood still with their eyes wide opened and their hearts beating fast.The voice did not call again and it didn't need to, Adam knew that if this were some other day he would have answered the call in a heartbeat. But this was not just some other day, this was the day he had done the unthinkable. He kept staring at his wife and she did the same, the grapes had fallen off his hands out of shock. After a while he then took in the appearance of the female. His eyes widened."You're naked". He whispered. The female nodded."You too". She replied."We can't see him like this". The woman nodded again in agreement and looked around frantically. Her eyes landed on the fig tree nearby and she pointed at it."The fig leaves". Adam looked at them puzzled."Yes?""We'll cover ourselves with them". She explained."Oh. Yes, yes let's do that and quickly". They ran quick

Azaliah didn’t know which sound to focus on, the hoots and yells of the angels or the light buzzing sound in her ears. She took a deep breath as she shook her head frantically in an attempt to dull the noise. The fear that had gripped her ever since the meeting was still evident and she struggled to hide it from every cheerful angel she walked past.None of them noticed the strained smile she gave them when they greeted her, all of their attention was on the tournament and she was so glad for it. She made her way to where the Cherubs and Archangels sat, drawing the attention of Beth and Michael. The two gave each other a glance before giving her a smile but Azaliah didn’t want to think deep into it. She returned the smile, clearly forced and sat beside Michael the other seat at her left was meant for her mother who had not made an appearance yet.She adjusted herself on her seat, the action drawing the confused eyes of her superiors towards her. She would s

Azaliah watched in horror as heaven fell into an uproar. She had seen this before, angels screaming and yelling, Michael barking commands at the other angels, structures falling and collapsing and speckles of golden dust littering the air. She had seen it all before but this time, it wasn't just in the walls of a temple, it was real. She was living it.She didn't know how long she stood like a statue, completely shocked. Michael, Beth and other powers had gathered around her although they did not make it too obvious. No demon had paid attention to her yet and she was happy about that, the spear that almost hit her face was still in front of her as far as she was concerned."Azaliah. Azaliah snap out of it!!" She heard a voice yell at her while shaking her violently. She shook her head once and stared at the person in front of her. Beth's eyes were wider than that of an ostrich and her hands were shaking and hopelessly holding on to Azaliah's shoulders."I'm here

Hagne sat at the dinner table or rather, what was left of it with her children. Fia sat beside her, her eldest and first daughter Edvige sat at the edge of the table and her only son Ciro sat opposite her. In front of them were plates of salad, cheese, fish, eggs, fruits and fried chicken. It was quite different from what they were used to but since it was Fia’s birthday, they had made an exception. Hagne wiped her hand on a brown wash cloth and spread them across the table. “Let us pray”. She said. But her children had already put the forks into their mouth. She blinked once and withdrew her hands. “Never mind”. She grabbed her fork and put some eggs into her mouth. A sigh of satisfaction escaped her lips as she chewed. If only every day was like this, she wouldn’t have to cry herself to sleep every night and wake up with a throbbing headache. The family ate in silence, the only sound that emanated from the table was the clanging of fork on t
