“Are you scared to be Queen? To rule by my side?”
Well shit, I guess we’re having this conversation.
It’s normal to have this conversation. Especially after learning everything about the vision. I was meant to be at his side. Not because I was fated to but because I wanted to. I wanted to be at his side. To be his. For all of my life, my mother had tried to drill into my head that the man standing before me was a cruel, evil, wicked monster that knew nothing but death and destruction. Yet it was all a lie. Lucifer was gentle loving and patient. He cared whether I lived or died and I knew in my heart that he would defend me until death and I would do the same for him. Standing before me was a man that people had learned to fear and hate. A man people would spend their lives trying to run away from but yet as I stood before him, I was not afraid.
“It does seem a little scary If I am being honest.”
Lucifer sat next to me as he released my hands taking my legs and draping them over his. His rough calloused hands made small little circles across my skin as he spoke,
“I won’t lie to you, It is scary and it’s a downright nightmare sometimes, but there is no one I’d rather have by my side than you.”
I smiled back at him,
“Even if I agreed to be Queen, you are locked out of Hell.”
A King and Queen without a crown. That was what we were at the moment. Lucifer reached up and brushed a strand of hair out of my face and said,
“It does not matter if we are here or in Hell, you will always be my Queen. My MorningStar.”
Damn this man.
That was all I could think of as he lowered his head down to mine and ever so gently kissed me.
He tasted warm and spicy. Like vanilla mixed with fire. It was a taste I would never get tired of. He was everything. He was my weakness and strength. My salvation and demise. He was mine from the very beginning and he would be mine until the very end.
“You must be exhausted, why don’t you get ready for bed.”
Well, I’m not tired anymore!
“Fine but you have to help me,” I smirked back at him
“It would be my honor.”
He whispered as he grabbed my hand, lifted it, and kissed my hand.
Oh fuck he’s good.
I lifted my legs off of him as he stood,
“Can you grab pajamas out of the drawer for me?”
He nodded his head and made his way to the dresser as I stood up and turned away from him to undress.
“I guess we’ll have to move your stuff in here as well so I’ll make room for your stuff in the drawers.”
Silence.
“Lucifer?” I called out
Silence.
I turned my head slightly, to see Lucifer standing behind me staring at my back. His hand clutching the clothes so tightly his once deep golden knuckles had turned white.
“These are fresh,” he said as his fingers lightly traced the cuts on my back from the shattered glass.
“I’ve always had those.”
“Bullshit. I know every single inch of your body and I know damn well these cuts were not here before.”
