Lucifer stiffened as he spoke,

“Who?”

My body tensed at his tone. My heart beating what seemed like a thousand times per second.

“Who. Did. This. To. You?”

His voice was tight and full of anger.

“Micheal,” I whispered back. I could feel Lucifer’s hands traveling down my arms and grasping my hands as she spun me around to face him.

“What happened?”

“After he and Gabriel hauled me back to the apartment and I woke up, he apologized for Gabriel knocking me out, saying they just needed to make sure I got back safely. Micheal handed me a drink and I threw the drink in his face and threw the glass across the room and Micheal tossed me across the room into the broken glass. Before I could even stand up he picked me up by my throat and held me against the wall so I spit in his face. That seemed to piss him off more because slapped me across the face and threw me across the room again.”

He’s gonna be so pissed.

Lucifer looked deeply into my eyes and all I could see was his rage and anger. He was beyond angry. This. What he was feeling right now, was an anger capable of destroying entire universes.

“I’ll kill him.”

“Lucifer you-”

“He hurt you! He left cuts and bruises on you!”

“He isn’t the first one to do so. Trust me Lucifer I am fine.” I grabbed his face and pulled him closer to me,

“Lucifer I am fine,” I whispered against his lips as he closed his eyes just for a brief moment, leaning into my touch.

“Fine, but why don’t you write down the names and addresses of those other people so I can pay them a visit.”

Oh, I love this man.

“Go take the first watch until Gabriel comes back, I am going to take a shower then head to bed.”

Lucifer handed me the pajamas and kissed my forehead.

“I am serious Catalina. I will kill anyone that causes you harm.”

“I know.”

“I will always protect my own.” he whispered just before his lips landed on mine again. Too soon he was gone and I watched as he walked out of our room and gently closed the door behind him.

It was strange to know that someone was in my corner. That someone cared about me being hurt and hated seeing cuts and bruises on me. It felt….

Good. It feels good.

Lucifer’s POV

“Is she asleep?” Gabriel asked as I joined him outside.

“She will be.”

Gabriel glanced over at me,

“How are you holding up?”
