Chapter two: (Death's POV)
*a week later*
I frowned at the closed door in front of me. How the Hell does she know Lucifer?And why the Hell was she here when she was one?
I will find out. Should I knock or should I just leave? I'll just leave. Maybe I'll come back later.
"Reed!"A voice behind me made me jump away from the door. I turned to find Lucifer standing behind me.
"I was just..."I trailed off, unsure of what to lie about.
"Nevermind that, Reed. I have a mission for you. Come, to my office"Luce waved a hand as if waving away my words.
Luce led me to his office. As I stepped in I remembered my first time in here.
I was two when I first got to see Lucifer's office. I remember stepping into the office and looking around excitedly. It was during that time, when I was looking around, that I spotted the pretty girl with long, black hair drawing in the corner in a firecorn notebook.
I looked up at Lucifer,"Master?You called for me?"
The girl looked up at me, her steely, gray eyes locking with my blue ones. She's pretty. I thought."Yes, son. As you know, you have fifteen years left before you take over your father's job."Lucifer said. Dad looked down at me with so much pride in his eyes.
"Yes, master. I'm so excited."I grinned excitedly at Lucifer, making him chuckle.
"That's great news, son. This here is Sinclaire, my daughter. She's only going to be here for a short time while her mother is busy. She requires a friend her age while she's here. Will you do it?"Lucifer smiled.
I turned to the pretty girl -Sinclaire- and grinned as she got up,"Hi, I'm Sinclaire. I like Firecorns. What's your name?Your eyes are pretty. Mine are boring. What's your favourite snack?"
"Hi, Sinclaire, I'm Reed. I like Firecorns too. Your eyes are pretty too. My favourite snack is Cheerios."I grinned. Her face split into a grin.
"I like Cheerios too!High five!"the girl giggled.
"Reed... Reed?Reed!"Luce yelled,"Did you here what I said?"he chuckled.
"No. Sorry, Luce, I was lost in thought. What can I do you for?"I grinned.
"It's fine. You remember the tracking chip of my daughter's?"He laughed. I nodded."I need you to go to the human world and find out why it was deactivated thirteen years ago...And what happened to Joslyn Mitchells...This is important..."
"Question...How the Hell does Sinclaire know you? And why the Hell was she in Hell fourteen years ago?"I frowned.
"Reed, I cannot tell you. But this mission you're going on will give you the answers you need. I swear. "He sighed.
"Fine. But you know how I am when it comes to secrets. I hate not knowing things."
"Thank you. You leave tomorrow, six am sharp."
***
I knocked on Sinclaire's door before entering. She was sleeping, mumbling in another language,"Mama, estoy lo siento me no podía proteger que de les. Me realmente deseo me será podría han. Me amor que, mama, me será obtener venganza en el ángel que mató a que."
I frowned and pulled the door shut, walking out. She looked so peaceful as she slept. But what the Hell was she saying? I'll come back when she's awake.
I made my way to my room to begin packing. I was unsure of how long I'd be up in the human world so I packed a week's worth of clothes. I stuffed my wallet into my bag and my toothbrush and toothpaste and loofah. I'd have to use the hotel body wash, shampoo and conditioner. And maybe bring them home...
"What's going on in this club..."my phone rang, playing that human lady's -Lady Gaga- song.
"Go for Death."I answered.
"Reed, I heard about your trip to the human world...I wanna see you before you go because who knows how long you will be gone."Emilly, my girlfriend and Luce's pet dog Fang's vet, said.
I smiled,"Of course, babydoll. I'll see you in five."I said before hanging up. I closed my eyes and envisioned her office. When I opened them I was in it, her sitting at the desk.
"Hey, precious."I smirked, leaning down to kiss her lips. She gripped my face and pulled me down on top of her, kissing me back.
I pulled away, grinning."Well..."I chuckled. She blushed and let go of my face.
"Sorry, I just missed you. How was the trip last night?"
"Exhausting. The bloody ghost didn't shut up. Sometimes I hate my job."I sighed, sliding my hands under her shirt and placing them on her back, rubbing her back softly.
She pressed her body into mine and put her head on my chest."Reed... I have to tell you something..."
"What is it?"I frowned, looking down at her.
"I'm so sorry..."She sobbed.
"Babe... No... You said you were on the pill..."I stammered, backing up.
"What? No! I'm sorry because I'm moving...Away from Greecemorr..."
"What!?Why!?"I gasped, pulling away further.
"My Nona's sick and I am her only family left..."She sighed.
"Babe..."I hugged her tight."I'm not going to stop you from going."
"Thank you."She kissed my lips.
"When do you leave?"I pressed her against her desk.
"Eleven tonight...Why? You got plans?"she smirked.
I grinned,"Well... It's seven thirty right now...which means we have three and a half hours to ourselves... I plan on using all thre and a half hours to make love to you before you leave."I kissed her sweet spot below her ear, making her moan.
"Sounds great."She moaned as I slipped my hand into her underwear under her skirt.
"Fuck, you're so wet for me..."I husked when my fingers met her sex.
"Reed..."She bit her lip, moaning.
*Skip that scene*
I stared at her car as it drove away."What are you staring at?"A voice made me jump.
I looked at the owner of the voice and groaned,"Sinclaire..."I pushed past her,"What do you want?"
"I'm dying my hair...Wanna help?"She grinned holding up white hair dye.
I shrugged. "Sure. Anything else?"
"Well..."She licked her lips, grinning.
"Oh Hell no. That is out of the question."I made a face.
"What?No! I'm just really craving a beer."She laughed,"I wouldn't shag you if my life depended on it."
I breathed out in relief,"right...Well let's get your hair done before we go out."
"Yay!"She grinned, bouncing excitedly.
"Wait, you're not old enough to drink. You won't be able to get in without a adult ID."
"I have one."She grinned, fishing out her wallet. She pulled out two ID's and showed them to me. One was a fake and the other was her real one.."And if my adult ID doesn't work, I have a secret to tell them."she shrugged.
"Alright. You talk in your sleep. You know that?"I walked into the castle.
"What?No I don't..."
"Sinclaire. We need to talk."Luce popped out of nowhere, making me jump.
"What is it with people scaring me!?What, is it 'Scare Death week'!?"I pouted.
Luce rolled his eyes,"Don't be such a baby, Reed."
"Reed?Where have I heard that name before?"Sinclaire frowned,"Wait, is it really 'scare Death week'!?Why didn't anyone tell me!?"
I rolled my eyes and turned, walking away."I'll be in my room, sharpening my scythe and polishing it if you need me."
***
"Ah fuck!"I hissed, wiping the blood gushing out of my nose with my wrist.
Why the Hell did I think I could overwork my powers and get away with it?My head was pounding and my blood was rushing in my ears.
"Reed?Are you okay? You're bleeding..."Sinclaire walked into the training room.
She wore a pair of Spandex shorts and a tank top, her feet bare, bandages around her fists. I found myself staring at her feet. They were tiny and paler than the rest of her body, her toes painted black. They were cute. My eyes trailed up her legs and holy shit... I'd never seen legs that long, smooth and shapely before. Not even on Emilly.
I turned to cover up the tent forming in my jeans,"Yeah I'm fine. Just overworked my powers. It always happens when I do that."I replied, clearing my throat.
"Oh okay." She said. When I was sure my boner had receded I turned to find her in front of the punching bag. She placed her arms in front of her chest, one a bit higher that the other in a fighting stance, parting her legs a bit.
She began hitting the bag hard repeatedly. I watched the muscles in her arms flex with each punch. I licked my lips and grabbed the bag, steadying it. She looked up at me and I smiled.
A few minutes later I handed her a water from the mini fridge in the corner of the room."Thanks."She smiled gratefully.
I nodded,"You're welcome. I'm gonna go hit the showers. We should do this again sometime. Maybe we can be sparring partners."I grinned.
"Definitely. I could take you down any day."She grinned back. I shook my head.
"You wish. Well, I'm off. Buh-buy."I chuckled and walked out. I had my shower then walked to the kitchen."Sam!My man! What's for dinner!?"I grinned at the chef.
"ОвощИ, рИс, курИца рHe grinned back.
"Ooh, yum. My favourite. Sam, how's it been? I haven't eaten any of your food in years."Sinclaire walked in, carrying a trashbag to throw down the trash shoot.
"Sinclaire! How you be!? You eat your vegetables?"Sam grinned.
"I'm good. And yes I always eat my vegetables."she grinned.
"Das good. You grow big and strong, like your мать. She was so special. Извините меня."
"Да. She was." She sighed.
"How many languages do you speak?"I gasped, shocked.
"Four. English, Spanish, Italian and Russian."She shrugged,"Wait five. There's also Afrikaans that I learned on my trip to Africa a few years ago."
I gaped at her. That is hot. What, no! I have a girlfriend. I can't be thinking about other girls like that.
Aria, one of the maids, walked in."Well hello there, gorgeous."Sinclaire wolf-whistled, leaning on the counter. I frowned.
"Um, what?"Aria blushed. Sinclaire bit her lip, looking Aria up and down flirtatiously.
"Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?"She winked at Aria. Aria blushed harder, giggling.
"Oh..."Aria giggled.
"I'm Sinclaire. What's your name, dollface?"
"Ar-Arianna...But I like being called Aria..."
"Hey, Aria, did you take care of my baby nicely?"I spoke up.
"Oh yeah. I polished her too. She shines like the stars."Aria grinned, grabbing a duster and leaving.
"Great. Thank you."I grinned.
"Baby?"Sinclaire frowned.
"My Harley Davidson motorcycle."I grinned wider. "My Harley is my life. Well aside from Em and my job."
"Can I see it please?"I gaped at her, dirty thoughts running through my head.
"Um..."I gulped,"S-sure..."I grabbed my scythe and led her out the kitchen.
"So tell me about Fang. How big is he now?"she said before her eyes widened and she blushed. I see she has a dirty mind like me."Uh... Forget I said anything..."
I chuckled and grabbed the door handle for her, opening the door. I stepped aside and she walked out. I followed suit.
"He's quite large now. About 400feet tall."I grinned. She nodded as I led her down the hall to the garage.
I opened the door to the garage and led her inside and she gasped."Holy crap!"She ran up to the bike."How many horses?"She looked up at me.
"Thirty four."I smirked. She frowned.
"Why thirty four?" She straddled the bike, running her hands gently over the control panel.
"Because, I'm a messenger. I have to drive really fast so that I can teleport between the realms."I grinned at her reaction.
"It's so beautiful."She hugged the steering.
"Come on. Let's go get dinner."I smiled.
After dinner, which was delicious, I decided to take a shower and go to bed. On my way to my room I spotted Sinclaire talking to none other than Xaviero De Castiglione. My number one enemy. The asshole always trying to steal my girlfriends and my job.
"You have pretty eyes, Mielle."He said, leaning forward. He had both of his hands on either side of her head and she was giggling.
"Oh, Xaviero, you sure do know how to make a girl swoon. Graci."She giggled.
"I can make you swoon in more ways than one, Mielle."He winked, biting his lip, cupping her face.
I grabbed her wrist and pulled her to me,"Back off. She is off limits to anyone and everyone."I narrowed my eyes at him.
He took her hand and kissed it,"Until next time, Mielle."He smirked at me.
I let her go as he walked away, running a hand through my hair."Stay away from him. He is a user and an abuser. He's hurt many girls in the past, they committed suicide because of his abuse. Your friend Carly? She was one of them."
Okay. Maybe I shouldn't have said that last part out loud.
Sinclaire's eyes widened and they filled with tears,"That asshole!"She walked into her room and slammed the door, causing all the doors on this floor to rattle.
***
I heard singing as I entered the library and decided to stand, leaning against the nearest shelf and watch her as she closed her eyes and began dancing in the wide space between the shelves.
"Should auld acquaintance be forgot and ne'er brot tae mind, should auld acquaintance be forgot and days of auld Lang syne. For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne. We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet for days of auld lang syne..."
I smiled at the sight, her voice like silk, melancholy words reflecting her soul."That was beautiful, Sin."I said, startling her.
A book came flying toward my face and I caught it just before it hit my face."The big book of Shakespeare." I read aloud,"Good choice."I opened it.
"How long were you standing there?"she gasped.
"Longer than you'd like."I chuckled,"That was pretty impressive. I never expected you to be so flexible."I smirked.
"Her eyes widened as I walked up to her,"Dance with me, mortal."
"I don't know...Last time I danced with Death, I stepped on his toes..."She bit her lip. Holy Hell...
I leaned down and cupped her chin."You scared?"I smirked.
