Micheal laughed, the sound sending cold shocks throughout my body.

“Of course not. Don’t be ridiculous.”

“It was just a-”

“Go comfort your friend, Gabriel, she is going to need it in the upcoming days.”

Micheal began to walk away, and I should’ve just kept my mouth shut. I should have just let him walk away,

“Do you swear it?” I asked

Silence.

I turned and saw that Micheal still had his back to me, his fists tightly clenched at his side.

“Do you swear it, on our father, that you have not lied?”

“Gabriel I-”

“DO. YOU. SWEAR. IT!” I screamed at him, unable to control myself any longer.

“Yes, I swear it.”

Micheal said as he stormed back towards me and jumped off the balcony and into the air. His bright white wings were at war with the darkness of the sky.

He lied. The bastard swore on our father and lied.

If Micheal was willing to lie to my face and swear it on our father, I couldn’t trust him. I couldn’t trust that his actual intention was to keep Catalina safe.

There has to be another angle here.

But what the hell could it be? I couldn’t trust Micheal. Not anymore.

Catalina’s POV

Damn, I hate the sun.

The sun shining bright in my face was not the best way to wake up but nonetheless, I was awake. I reached over expecting Lucifer to be there but the side of the bed was empty and cold. As if it had been empty all night.

Did he even come to bed?

Leaving the room, I made my way downstairs into the kitchen and saw him still on the patio outside the front door. I rushed over to the door and knocked, startling him. I smiled as he slowly opened the door,

“You know with all the sleep you missed I bet it’ll be pretty easy to take you down in training today.”

“In your dreams princess.” He picked me up and carried me to the kitchen and sat me on the island.

I could get used to this.

“You know you don’t always have to carry me right?” I said as I ran my fingers through his soft black hair,

“I like carrying you, I like having you in my arms.”

Slowly he leaned forward and pressed a sweet and gentle kiss to my forehead as he wrapped his arms around my waist.

“I’m assuming you were out there all night?” I asked him.
