Chapter 66
"Is that true?" Peter asked.
John shook his head, "She's lying. Why would I-"
"Before you start lying your ass off, you should know that I died in the plane and came back as a demon which means I can die and I'll just respawn and you, on the other hand, will go to Hell," I hissed in a hushed tone as my eyes turned black. "Not to mention, my boyfriend over there is the Devil himself so he'll have some fun with you," I whispered.
He looked to Lucifer and I watched as he turned pale. He saw Lucifer's demon form but no one else did in the courtroom.
"1-I mean John, is this true?" Peter's voice rose.
John then quickly nodded, "This is true," he mumbled causing everyone to gasp. My eyes returned to normal and I released him before standing in front of the courtroom.
"I vote that John, Kenneth, and Muhammad be sent to prison for endangering my life along with my brother's life. Who knows how many others they must have killed or tried to kill. Vote in progress," I spoke as I raised my hand. I watched as everyone on the left which was my side quickly stood up with their hands raised excepting Crystal, Axel, Sean, and Zepar since they weren't part of the organization. All the executives then stood up with their hands raised as they sided with me.
"Done," Peter slammed his gavel down.
"I also vote that Jayson and Henry should be the new leaders of the organization and should hire who they trust. Does anyone second that?" I asked. Everyone then raised their hands again.
"Also done," Peter spoke before slamming his gavel down. "Court dismissed," he spoke as he stood up. Guards then came in and arrest all three leaders before taking them into the room. I watched as Peter followed them. He then looked directly at me before nodding me over.
I walked over to him before walking down the hall behind him and into a room where all three leaders were sat down. The guards left and Peter sat down across from them with a paper in front of him.
"So what are you doing later?" I asked as he filled out the paper. "Well, I'm probably going to take the wife out for dinner later. I wanted to take her out for lunch but she's working now," he informed me.
"Well, how about I take you out for lunch. You could join the guys and I," I offered.
"I don't want to in-"
"Oh please. You know very well that's some bull. You're coming," I informed him causing him to chuckled.
"Sounds good," he spoke as he filled out their prison papers.
I looked to all three of them to see they were beyond pissed excepting John. He looked a bit scared from before.
"You said you sank with the plane. What happened?" Peter asked.
"Well, I died," I replied. He stopped writing and looked up to me with a sad look, "How did you survive?" he asked.
"Well, crazy story but I'm now a demon," I informed him as my eyes turned black. He didn't seem phased which confused the Hell out of me. No pun intended. From the corner of my eyes, I could see the three ex-leaders were about to scream but I used my powers to shout them up and keep them seated.
"I kind of expected you to become one but not like this," he spoke. My eyebrow rose, "What do you mean?" I questioned.
"I've known your boyfriend for a long time now. About 30 decades. We had a run-in at a bar. He offered me a job and drunken me agreed. Something happened and I was supposed to die but he gave me a chance to redeem myself. Now here I am. I haven't seen him for a long time until I saw him with you at the ballroom event 6 years ago. It's funny how life works," he chuckled as he shook his head.
"It honestly is. Turns out this is my destiny. Gabe also died but from different causes. He's part angel and part demon and the girl who sat next to Stella is a witch," I informed him.
"And the two guys next to her?" he asked referring to Axel and Zepar. "Demons. They're all really nice. Ever since I met them. Oh, and I know Sean's in the organization but he's more of an ex-organization member but he's also a demon," I informed him.
"Anything else I should know?" he chuckled in amusement.
"Well, I got two extra powers. I can create portals and have the power of ice. Oh, and I met God," I smiled.
His eyes widened, "We definitely have a lot to talk about over lunch."
I nodded my head, "Yes we do and which prison are you putting them in?" I asked.
"Well, they use to do missions so I'm putting them in the prison where they sent all their prisoners. It should be a nice reunion for them," he smirked as he filled out the rest of the paper.

We all ate our lunch and I sat between James and Peter. After we had finish ate, I told Peter everything that happened. He had a right to know since he was close to Jayson and Henry. Speaking of Henry, he also offered Peter leadership as an executive to which he accepted. Things seem to be going great so far. That was until the whole restaurant was being cleared and a bunch of men in black suits entered.
About 30 of them. They then surrounded our table and I looked to all the guys to see they also didn't know what was happening. Looking to then entrance, I then saw a guy in his early 30's walked in. He was a bit tatted up but not as much as Henry. His eyes were a shade of bright blue and his hair was a brownish blonde color. He wore a white t-shirt and joggers. His hand was a bit bruised up and bloody. I knew who he was.
I watched as he looked towards all the guys then at me. He kept a straight face before looking away and making his way towards a booth that was across the restaurant.
"The CEO would like to see you," one of the men in black suit spoke behind me. I got up from my chair along with Henry, Jayson, and Peter. "Just Ms. Marran," the guy informed causing everyone to sit back down. A scoff came from James and I turned to see him wearing an annoyed look.
"It was going to happen sooner or later," I mumbled before being escorted to the booth with the CEO.
I've seen him about 3 or 4 times before. We've talked as well but not too much. I took a seat in front him and the two guys in a suit walked a distance away before turning their backs towards us. A woman then came and served me a martini whilst CEO over here got Scotch.
"So you want to tell me why 3 of my executives are being transported to a prison?" he asked as he took a drink.
I shrugged, "Maybe you should have been there," I replied as I drank my drink. His eyes glared at me, "I was busy," he mumbled.
"I see," I replied as I looked at his bloody knuckles. He then released a sigh, "I'm not even finished yet. Now tell me what happened," he demanded.
"Fine. They wanted to kick us out the organization due to the amount of "destruction" we caused," I quoted with my fingers, "So they took us to court. I fought for us and it turns out on one of the missions, we weren't supposed to make it back. They planned to kill us," I informed him.
I watched as he tensed up, "I'm sorry, I didn't know," he apologized.
I read his mind, "Those bastards are lucky I don't kill them," he thought. He was telling the truth.
"Peter is now an executive with Henry and Jayson," I added.
"Good," he mumbled as he looked behind me. His eyes stared at someone then back at me before looking to my hand. "Ah, soon to be married, huh?" he spoke looking at my ring on my finger before looking back at the guys. I followed his trail to see he was looking at Lucifer.
"Yeah," I spoke at Lucifer was smiling at me. I shot him a smile before looking back at my CEO. "Didn't think you'll be marrying the devil," he chuckled as he drank his drink. My eyes widened, "How do-"
"Sweetheart, I run this company and unfortunately, he was with us for some time because we needed him. Besides, he's everywhere," he cut me off, "But moving on, I heard you added someone to your gang, Grayson?" he asked.
I then looked back to the table to see Grayson wasn't here. I had totally forgotten about him.
"I had to move him from your gang. I know what you're capable of along with the rest of them but he's not fit to be with you guys. His skills are amazing and his combat is phenomenal but you guys are literally a moving target 24/7. I put him in Unit 4 to work with the organization. He'll be much safer there. I explained it to him and he's okay with it as long as you are," he explained.
I slowly nodded my head and drank out my drink, "Fair enough."
I watched as he sat back in his seat and drank his drink as he stared at me. "What's wrong?" I asked as I chewed on my olive.
"I forgot how beautiful you are," he smiled. I felt a blush rising to my cheeks. Rolling my eyes playfully, I shook my head, "That's not very professional," I commented.
He then let out a groan and rolled his eyes, "Don't pull that bullshit."
I shrugged and spit the seed out in the cup and continued to chew on the toothpick. "You lost that privilege to admire me when you almost let the executives kick us out."
His eyebrows furrowed up, "You know very well I wouldn't let that happen Sky," he spoke in a stern tone.
"Really Dexter? I didn't even think you would care since you never show up to the meetings anymore. The last time I saw you was like 8 years ago," I fired back.
"Just because I stopped showing up doesn't mean I don't care. You know I would do anything for you. I still have a soft spot for you," he mumbled, "I'm sorry you feel that way," he apologized.
I let out a sigh and sat back in my seat as I was the one now staring at him.
He then pulled out his phone and typed something in before showing me it.
You sure you want to get married to him?
I looked at him to see he was serious. I then started to type.
Yes, what's it to you?
I watched as he stared at the message for a while as if he was planning to admit something I didn't know. I could feel my anxiety rising as his fingers tapped the screen. He then stared at the phone before passing it to me.
I know what happened when your humanity turned off. I have witches inside the organization. Lucifer had to do some favors track you.
My eyebrow rose as I looked at him before typing away.
Yes but I ended up calling him so he came. He did send a dementor after me but favors?
I passed the phone back before he started typing. He then passed it back to me.
You and he have a bond to which the powerful witch offered to help him find you unless she gets something out of it. Her demands were that he sleeps with her and she'll help. He denied multiple times but then he became desperate to find you.
I felt something in me shatter and my throat was closing up. I looked back up to him to see a frown on his face.
"Proof?" I asked. He took his phone and scrolled through before staring at it. He then hesitantly passed me it. It was a video. Clicking play, I watched as the camera was in the corner of the room. Lucifer and this witch was on the bed...fucking.
This isn't real. It's probably aillusionon but then I used a spell to block out illusions.
After a few seconds, I watched as he stopped before getting off the bed and putting on his shorts. I remember those shorts as the ones he showed up in when I called him. I turned the video off and passed him his phone. I was sick to my stomach.
"How did you get that?" I asked trying to not cry. "She works for the company," he spoke. I read his mind and he was telling the truth.
Leaning back in my seat, I stared at the ceiling trying not to cry. "I'm really so-"
"Don't finish that sentence please Dex. Send it to me and what else do you want to talk about?" I asked as he poured himself a drink.
A frown rose to his lips, "Well, I would like help on my mission. It's tonight," he suggested with a small smile. My phone went off with a message notification gesturing he sent the video.
"How long will it take?" I asked.
"Maybe 3 or 4 days," he replied. "Deal. We should take 4 days. Use it to also prepare," I spoke.
He nodded his head and stood up, "I'll pick you up at 8," he informed me as he toke the toothpick out of my mouth and put it in his.
"See you," I gave him a small smile. I watched as some of his men walked in front him and the rest behind. They all piled into their cars and drove off. Letting out a sigh of saddness and anger, I looked to Dex's cup to see some scotch was still in it. I grabbed the cup and headed over to the guys.
"Well, what happened?" James asked.
"I'm going on a mission with him for a couple of days. Everything else is fine," I forced a smile on my face as I drank the scotch out.
They all cheered and I took a seat. Looking around I saw everyone was smiling and cheering. My eyes then landed on Lucifer who smiled at me. I returned the smile and turned my attention to James who was currently talking to Jayson and Cody on our side. As he was talking, my brain regesitered nothing what he was saying. All I could think of was Lucifer fucking that girl.
