“You.”
“You mean to take her? Where?”
Micheal slid over the glass to me,
“That is not your concern.”
THE HELL IT IS!
“Would she be safe?”
Micheal nodded before taking his shot,
“Absolutely.”
“So she’ll be safe yet you won’t tell me where you would take her?”
Nothing about that sat right with me. If she was going to be safe then why didn’t he just tell me where he would take her?
“Try not to fret Gabriel. If she improves in the next few days then I won’t have to take her anywhere.”
“It’s hard not to worry. She is my friend.”
Micheal poured and finished another shot and began walking back inside, pausing at the doorway into the living room,
“Don’t worry Gabriel, everything is going according to plan.”

Catalina’s POV
Training was great today. Gabriel had seemed a little on edge but then again he did see Micheal last night. Lying to your brother couldn’t be easy, especially when your brother was an archangel who had been lying to everyone for eons. I was getting faster at manifesting my fire. Which was great but also scary. It was also the first time I didn’t think about my past. The memories in those old homes died as they went up in flames. Manifesting that circle though made me so tired. I wanted to try and see how long I could keep it up but Lucifer could see I was tired and he was right. Just those few seconds made me so exhausted. So when I returned to our room I immediately got into the shower and tried to wake myself up. It helped a little bit but not a lot.
Leaving the bathroom I went to grab my clothes from the dresser,
“I would say today was a successful training day.”
FUCK!
I turned and saw Lucifer sitting on the edge of our bed, smiling at me.
Clutching the towel around me a little tighter, he stood up and walked to me, placing his hands on my hips.
“I am so very proud of you.” He whispered.
“You are the second person to ever say that to me.” Besides Gabriel, no one else in my life had ever said they were proud of me. I tried so hard growing up to get someone to say. But nothing I did was ever good enough. Nothing I did was ever worthy of them to say they were proud of me.
“Weren’t your parents ever proud of you and your accomplishments?”
HA!
I walked over to the dresser and put on my clothes. I could feel Lucifer’s heated gaze on me as I dropped my towel, but now was not the time for it.
I put my clothes on and sat in the chair at my vanity,
“They barely knew anything about me. They paid little to no attention to me unless I was doing something I wasn’t supposed to. I doubt they even knew about them.”
Lucifer leaned back on the bed,
