I could hear her laugh from down the hall as I smiled and stood up, grabbed a pair of shorts from her dresser, and walked out of her room. I tossed her the pair of shorts as I walked past her library. A warm tingle pressed against the back of my neck, I glanced towards the entryway into the living room, I could have sworn I saw a dark shadow standing there.

Chapter 8

Lucifer’s POV

“How long has she been in that damn library for?” I asked Gabriel as I gathered the plates and cups for dinner.

“I’d say about six hours now.”

He can’t be serious.

“There is no way someone can read for six hours a day.”

Gabriel laughed as he placed the containers of Chinese food on the table,

“Catalina can AND SHE BETTER PUT THE DAMN BOOK DOWN AND COME EAT!” Gabriel yelled and within seconds Catalina emerged from the library, a large paperback book still in her hand.

Gabriel laughed when he saw her.

“What were you reading about this time?” he asked as he stood beside her at the kitchen island.

“The Fae.”

Fae?

I guess Gabriel could see the puzzled look on my face and decided to elaborate.

“Catalina mainly reads fantasy books.” I couldn’t help but laugh. This tiny anger-filled thing still reads fairy tales.

“What’s so funny?” She turned to look at me, taking a few steps towards me as I shrugged my shoulders back,

“Just never pegged you for a fantasy reader.”

“And what type of books did you think I would read?” She questioned me as she opened a few containers and piled food onto her plate.

“To be honest I am surprised that you can even read but to answer your question, Smut mostly.”

Gabriel burst into laughter as Catalina’s cheeks turned a slight shade of pink. I was so distracted by the pink flush of color in her cheeks that I almost missed her hand as she raised it up and almost smacked me in the face. I grabbed her wrist just as her hand was a few short inches away from making contact with my face.

Damn, She’s Fast. But I’m faster.

The orange in her eyes began to ever so slightly overshadow the green.

“You’ll have to be quicker than that next-” A sharp pain stung between my legs.

Oh this fucking girl!

I went down, still clutching her hand, pulling her down with me. Catalina hit her head on the way down but within a few seconds, she was up and was straddling me.

“Touch me again and it will be the last thing you ever do.” She whispered in my ear.

Impressive.

“You’re a violent little princess aren’t you.”

She remained silent, still staring at me as if she wanted to rip my head off.
